THE PERSONAL EQUATION.
(New Britain Herah.)

The human element of railroading has been conspicuous chiefly, so far as the New York. New Haven and Hartford has been concerned, as an excuse for accidents. It has occurred to President Elliott to improve this factor as well as the mechanical equip ment of the road.
 General Manager Bardo, while tes- tifying before the coroner's investiga- ton of the Stamford wreck, placed stress on the demoralized discipline of the road He blamed it on the crfti- cisrns He did not seem to, realize that this demoralization may have been the cause, not the result, of thssa

WHY ELLIOTT BECAME
 CHOICE OF DIRECTORS
 FOR NEW HAVEN'S HEAD

New Haven, July 3o.-It is reported on excellent authority that the direc- tors decided upon Howard. Elliott for head of the New Haven system very largely because of his record in the work of segregation on the Northern Pacific after the Supreme Court decis- ion in the Northern Securities case. It is said that this work done by Elliott in the opinion of several directors made him the one man in the country for MT. Mellen's successor. The direc- tors are also said to have considered the fact that he is a man after MT MelIen's own style. It is a curious fact that he succeeded MT. MeIIen as president of the Northern Pacific.

THE cAMINETTI CASE

San Francisco, CAL, Sept. 5.-The
Caminetti white slavery case is now
in the hands of the jury and YER
dict is expected before night.
The most dramatic testimony was
offered by Mrs. Maury 1. Diggs just
before the defense rested.
81 told Caminetti that he was re-
sponsible for Maury running around
with these girls" she said. "They
were nothing but home wreckers. l
told him that if l ever caught Maury
and Marsha Warrington together I
would shoot him like dog. Camin-
ETH begged me to refrain and did so.
81 treated Marsha Warrington like
a lady. She was invited to my house
and she even cuddled my baby on her
lap. l knew she would keep going
with my husband as long as he had
money"
Caminetti made an Indifferent wit
ness in his own behalf. He did not
contradict nor affirm the story told
by Lola Norris and he neither eX-
cused nor accused.
Judge Van Fleet, in denying the
motion of the defense to acquit, said:
There has been sufficient evidence
introduced to convict Caminetti if
the jury finds that the evidence is
true"

With proper support Engel would most
likely not have had much trouble winning
his game, though he was hit hard In the
opening inning, while Ainsmith's wild
throw over second, which Milan allowed
to go through him, helped the Sox ma
terially in this rourd. The scoring of the
two runs in the fourth, which margin
gave the visitors the victory was the
direct result Of poor fielding by Engel.
VINO allowed FOurnier's bunt to turn into
a base hit. Then came a walk and an
other infield hit, which Morgan could not
get to first base in time to retire Weaver.
Had the grounds been fast this inning
would not have produced runs for the
SoX.
Tom Hughes pitched in brilliant form
during the four innings that he off1ciated
on the rubber. He took Engefs place in
the sixth and went through the rest Of
the game without allowing hit or a
run. He had the visitors eating out Of
his hand, had good controi, ana most
deceptive curve ball and change of pace.
While Hughes is no longer young
ster, he is still valuable man for his
team, though he cannot work very Often
There are few pitchers in the league who
have better conception or now TO work
a batter than Hughes.
