w. X. Vanderbilt was constantly
travelling to London, Paris or Ireland.
| He made himself thoroughly CONVEX
SAINT with the different routes and
| knew every station whore the cN-
| presses BY which he mostly iourneyed,
| should stop. When on II night train
| which invariably waited II few minutes
| at Crewc he noticed that the trgir
! had dashed through the station and hr
instantly realized that there was
! something amiss. With lightning deci-
| sion and without over troubling TO
| ask the advice of any of the party ac-
| complaining him, he rang the CONF
| municating cord and brought tho
| dying train to Il standstill, 1t was
| done so RAPIDLY that good part OF
| the tail of the express was stu IN
| front of the platform so that the ma
jor!ty OF the passengers know nothing
! at MI Of what they had been saved
from Had the train not been checked,
! in few moro seconds an upgong
! express would have run bang into II.
| Most OF the passengers were asleep
| and took no notice OF the fact that
| half tho train was out OF the station
| before II drew UP For this the rail-
! way company was thankful, for there
| wore no explanations to be rendered
and the incident which would, for tho
| time being at any rate. have injured
| their reputation ut such busy sea-
son Of the year, did not get abroad,
