Funeral services were held in Bridge—
water Sunday over the remains of Lewis
LivIngston. one of the most- prominent
of the engineers of the New York. New
Haven and Hartford Railroad. A
special train on the Housatonic Road
conveyed many of the engineers from
Bridgeport to New Milford. where carri-
ages Were taken for Ilridgewater. The
services were under the direction of the
'llrotherhood of LocIaniotive Engineers
and'tbe Free Masons. Livingston had
made many famous runs overthe road,
and he was regularly in charge of the
fast newspaper trains from New York.
Speaking about the late railroad acci-
dent. Supt. Stevenson said to a News re-
porter. “I hear many people talking
about the right of way. trains early,
trains, late, etc. Here is where they
fucks a mistake. Thergjs no such thing
as a right of way over the single track
between the elevator an'd the depot
beyond what the proper signals allow.
“'e run this single track in a way that
will best accommodate the numerous
trains. governing it entirely and wiely
by the signals. When a train reaches
the points to go'on to this single track,
it makes no difference whether it be on
time. or hours. late or early, it can only
use the truck or wait for an opportunity
to do so. when the signals say so. This
is thoonly was we can manage it as the
ngatuckan Housatonics switch and
regular trains all use the same track too.
The qtfeotion of time does not enter at
all into the matter of the late accident.
Red is never any thing else but the sig-
nal of danger. There was the red bull
and the red arm signal in plain view and
there is no reason under the heaven. as.
yet , why Engineer Slayback
should not have brought his engine to a
full atop. that is Just what the signal:
. mfornndyuot what, it “WI“, be
neglected to do.” :

adjusted to a wire mesh bottom placed
on shoes. to keep it from sinking into
the mud. These shoes form a hinge
whereby the bag can be dumped without
lifting the dredge. Mr. lloyt has used
these dredges. and is so well satisfied
with them that he will manufacture
them for general use.
The Bridgeport Post says that it is not

conclusions in regard to the conduct of
Engineer Sliyback. 'l‘uc assI-rtion that
he was ahead of tune In Iy be true in one
sense. but when viewed in another light
it cannot be substantiated. Trains are
scheduled to (care stations at a certain
time and in order to make that schedule
they must arrive '30 as to allow passen—
gers to leave and others to get on board
in time. If a train arrives at the time it
is scheduled to leave this of course can-
not be done. So we think the statement
that the express train was ahead of time
should have no weight in an investiga-
tion. but Should be considered in a prop-
er manner.

returned to Lichtblcau‘s bakery with his
balxc‘y wagon. Mr. Lichiblcau rh—
nioved the horse‘s bridle to place the
feed bag over his nose. Mr. Mctlraw
was in the wagon. The horse took
fright and started ‘Oll a dead run down
\Vasliington street. The wagon, for-
tunately. came in contact with other
wagons and the horse freed himself by
the time he got to the post—oilice corner.
The horse rundown as far as Farting;
ton‘s market where he. stopped. \Vlien
the horse left the wagon it turned into
Railroad square and stopped in front of

freed himself from it. ashe was in a
dangerous situation. The only damage
done was the breaking of-the harness.

The total number of deaths registered
in the ten cities of Connecticut in the
month of June was 378 as against 363' in
May. beingau excess of only ten. This
mortality represents an annual death rate
of 15.1 to 1.000 people. Consumption
and pneumonia still predominate over
other causes of death. A smaller nior~
tality from some of the usual zymotic
diseases is noticable~—thus in onl ' one
city did scarlet fever prove fatal. There
were no deaths from measles during the
month. Only nine fatal cases of diph-
theria and croup in all the ten cities and
no deaths from typhoid fever excent in
New Haven. The annual death rate-was:
