A CONTRAST.

The interesting investigation of
the Stamford accident has brought
forward man ramed Jangan, who
holds an important position with the
Delaware, Lackawanna * Western
railroad. He has given his opin.
ions clearly and intelligently and is
said to have been requested by Pres
ident Mellen to cor'e as an expert.
1t is evident that he has not been
prejudiced in favor OF the New
Haven road. People are asking,
after they read his statements, why
the New Haven cannot be run as is
the Lackawanna; there's a road for
you.
1t is true that the Lackawanna is
one of the finest oads in the United
States. Its employees are, no doubt,
fitted TO act as experts in any rail
road inquiry. But how many per
sons remember that IT was on the
Lackawanna road last July 9TH, that
forty passengers were killed I'M 4
collision! That is more than have
been killed IN the three dreadful ac.
cidents on the New Haven. Out
these lives went, aud nobody is dc.
voting time to abuse OF the .Lacka.
wanna it is all New Haven.
One inexpresSibly drmagogiC
preacher, has denounced the New
Haven lor eXtorting its " vast divi
dends" from the pockets of the
poor. As a matter o, fact the New
Haven's old ate was only eight pei
cent, while the LaCkawanna, whicl
furnishes critics Tor other lines, pay,
twenty per cent. and does this alter
liberal extra donation TO stock
holders a short time ago. No ex
tortlon there, no demagogues tC
shout about il. On the contrary
the Lackawanna's experts are Sc
competent aud conservative tha
they show others how a railroa,
should be run.
