RELIANCE ON THE ENGINEER.
To the Vigilance Of the Man at the
Throttle Is the Dependence for
Safety in Travel.

Yet there are two real elements OF
GeLger in our high speed, says Scr!h-
ner's. They are inevitable. and the
only thing to do is to reduce them as
far as it is possible to do so One is
the increase OF traffic. freight and pas
senger, by which the chances of disas-
ter are increased. A 50-dollar freight

however. do not run on single-traek
lines, and no one has suggested that
singIe-track lines be built exclusively
for such trains
On the New York division of the
Pennsylvania between Jersey City and
Philadelphia "a typical high-speed
line-freight trains are now decidedly
more numerous and are longer and
heavier than they were ten years ago,
and the danger OF a passenger wre,k
is an appreciable percentage create
The danger is a small one, relativeIy
but still 1t is a danger. II a passen-
ger making this journey notices the
click of the wheels OF the long freight
trains as he meets or passes them. ne
will find that he is thus meeting or
passing train perhaps 10 to 20 min
utes out Of the two hours occupied n
making the journey Five years ago
the number Of meets probably was not
much over one-half as great. The 9th
er trunk lines would show similar
changes in the volume OF traffic
The other inevitable danger is that
due to mistake of judgment on the
part OF expert euginemen. tThe dan-
ger chargeable to negligent or incom
petent locomotive runners is another
question:. One may listen by the /
hour to the enthusiast who advocates
automatic appliances for stoppius
trains, and detecting foods and brok /
en- rails. and for doing other wondeg /
full things by electricity or somethiug /
else, and may admit most of his |
able weight to the talk about the |
value of a second or third man as a /
monitor in the locomotive cab; but he I
will still find that in actual travel, .
in myriads of situations, the only de
pendence of the fast train passene,T ,
for safety must be on the vigilance |
and good judgment OF the engineman.

OLDEST Ex.LEeIsLAToR.
A Claim That the Distinction. Belongs
to Judge Hiram Wiley of East
Haddam.

The Connecticut Valley Advertiser,
in taking part in the discussion of the
question who is the oldest Twin" eX-
member Of the general assembly. says:
East Haddam has a man who can
beat the record in the person of Judge
Hiram Wiley, who is in his 91st year,
and there is little doubt but that he
is the Oldest living eX-representative
in that state. Judge Wiley was born
in Hadlyme Cast Haddam), Ma %.
1918. His ancestry were the earliest
settlers of Connecticut. He attended
the local schools and in the adjoining
towns, and was admitted to the soph-
omore class of Wesleyan university and
graduated in 1886, taking honors. He
studied law with Eliphalet A. Buckley
of East Haddam. father of United
States Senator Morgan G. Buckley,
and was admitted to the bar in 1S41.
He went first to Charleston, 5. c.. and
then returned to Connecticut and in
1913 removed to New London. where
for thirty-two years he made his home.
In New London Judge Wiley was
soon recognized as a lawyer of more
than ordinary ability. and was an i'm
portant factor in the city's growth
and politics. In 1S47 he represented
that city in the legislature, and seven
years later he was appointed states
attorney for New London county,
which Office he held until 1861, when
President Lincoln appointed him Unit
ed States district attorney for Connec-
ticut In 1857 he again represented
New London in the general assembly,
and in 1859 was elected state sena-
tor, and was chairman Of the judiciary
committee at that session During ex-
citing war times he was mayor of
New London and declined to accept
denomination in 1865. He was APP
pointed United States district attorney
in 1865 by President Johnson. and held
that Office until 1870, in which year he
was appointed by the legislature Judge
Of the court Of common pleas for New
London county. In 1873 he resumed
his law practice In 1875 Judge Wiley
moved from New London to Hadlyme.
and in 1877 his native town. East Had
dam, sent him to the legislature. and
here he again was chairman of the
judiciary committee. For many Years
Judge Wiley has held an important
position with one of the big insurance
companies of Hartford In spite of his
great age his mental faculties are I'M
impaired, and his general health is eX-
cellent"
