“Since the wreck Saturday night
there has been a cry that the train
was running '10 miles an hour. That
may or may not be true. Personal-
ly I don‘t believe the story. But anv-
way under ordinary conditions. with
perfect equipment. a roadway
and the power to do it. I t that the
Ceatral's electrics could make this
fety to the riders.
At the present‘atage of electricity's
substitution fer steam. I do not think
that those in charge of the line nor
the operator of the motor engine
would undertake to make such a high
speed. in the first place the engines
aregneariy new from the operating
eta HIE although they are all
given a- trying out process before be
ing put in commission they are new to
them last the same and it is dan-
gerous to run them at such a rate with
only this circumstance being consid-
omd.‘ They are liable to have faults
which do not develop in the inspection
given them or in the trial runs and
these things are always considered by
the railroad men.
“Another thing this accident as i
understand it. occurred on a cure.
Perhaps the rails were defective. i
don’t say they. were. hilt suppose they
were. this accident could have happen-
ed up an ordinary light tvalnload of
commuters. I know this and you can
state it. without my name of course.
that the Ceatral and the New Haven
have given rders for certain changes
to be made in grades and curves locat-
ed ,la what is known as the electric
pone. What these changes signify the
asrage'man can easily guess. There
is nothing to it but that they are con.
sidemd not good roadbed as they stand
for the operation of the electrics.
“I do not pmtess to know what
caused this wreck. Brit it may have
been 'any one of many causes. If It
was a. drapped wheel on the electric
engine, as some of the papers say, then
it must be place to a defect in the con-
struction of the same. If it was due
to one of the passenger coaches break-
ing an sale. a wheel or another mm
of n car's anatomy. then the same
thing could have happened to a steam
train because the coaches used wow
the ordinary every day coach that we
are accustomed to ride in.
Douhtless this accident will result
in a more thorough examination of
the new equipment on extended series
of trial tests and also a careful inspec-
tion of the rondheds. mils, ‘.etc. in the
5 here of the electrics and olher minor
pairs as relating to the operation of
these trains.
“With those matters carefully at-
tended to and on a level stretch of
road there is little danger of accident
even if 70 miles an hour is the speed
the train is making. Our flyers make
that rate on the New York division
every day."

J‘PHoroonAPHs or VENICE.
An Interesting and Instructive Exhibl
tion at South Norwalk Public
Library.
An exhibition of photographs of
Venice will be at the South Norwalk
Library from February 19 until March
11. They represent the art and archi
tecture since the sixteenth century.
In her art history. as well as her no
litloal history. Venice has shown her
self independent from the mainaind.
The earliest monuments betray the
strength of the Byzantine influence.
but during the Gothic period of art,
the Venetians did not adopt the some
forms as the rest of tlaly.
The city took its name from Vene-
zia. one of the nine provinces in the
northeast part of ltaly. The river Po.
like other coast rivers, terminates in
a vast delta. which extends along thr
whole coast of the province. The
quantity and extent of the alluvial
deposit reminds one of Holland. -
in A, D. 452 the inhabitants of, the
cities of Venezla were driven by the
barbarian king Attila and the Huns,
to seek refuge in three large, secure
islands on the coast. The physical
conditions with which they had to deal
were singularly rIupropitious to the
growth of a large and prosperous city.
The salt was untlllabie and salt in-
crusted. and possessed no mineral
wealth; the thickets which, were found
here and there among the barren
marshes produced no serviceable
timber; and di'liikable' water could
hardly be obtained; yet by their luccu
lii'I-ness, their energy, their industry,
and their genius for commerce, they

Of the beauty and charm of this
