Another Railway accident with an appalling list of dead and wounded,due to the mistake Of-a brakeman in Open- ing a switch that should have remained closed until the ill-fated passenger train had passed, is reported from Kings- bury, Ind. It seems impossible to make and enforce any regulations about the running of railway trains that are not liable to be rendered worse .» than useless by the mistake, negligence or stupidity of a single railway employs. This is the most discouraging condition which all attempts to increase the safety of railway travel must confront. N 0 system of running railway trains can be made effective without human agency, and an infallible force of rail- way emplOyes has not yet been secured by any railroad. Britain’s Specialty in Wheat. The Hungarian Ministry estimates the wheat crop of the United States to be 397,250,000 bushels. Our own Agri- cultural department gives figures at 381,000,000 bushels, 9. 16,250,000 differ- ence only. The world’s production of wheat for 1893 may aggregate 2,379,000,000, and this is also the estimate of the Hungari- an Minister Of Agriculture, whose re- ports are the most reliable. The annu-, a1 average the past ten years has been 2,280,000,000, and upon the general ba- sis the deficit required by the import- ing countries is 379,000,000. To meet this Canada has a surplus of 9,931,000 bushels, India 42,562,000, the rest of Asia 7,093,000, Africa 3,688,000, Australia 19,295,000, Argentina 26,105,- 000 and Chili 6,526,000 a total of 115,200, 000 bushels or within 69,227,000 bushels of the actual needs of Great Britain’s deficit. The wheat growing colonies of the United Kingdom indicate by their rapid development that the creation of a better system of traffic by means of more liberal and just tarifi‘ regulations with nations yet needing this country’s surplus cereals is absolutely necessary if the United States hope to compete with Great Britain in that special mar- ket alone. ’ - _ . This is the lesson to'be taken from the wheat surplus for this year. It will not be long before Great Britain will be able to provide for 'the‘ deficits of other countries. The 69,000,000 bushels to come from the United States in 1893 may not be required by one half next . year. Then what? Prudent and profit- able legislation by Congress must give the only solution to the wheat surplus question. The Tariff. It is probable that few sensible busi- ness men and manufacturers expect the Democrats to let the McKinley bill alone. With the repeal of the Sher- man act all that would be required to again start the country on a career of unexampled prosperity would be an official announcement that there would be, no tariff changes. The effects of " the McKinley bill were beginning to be felt, and the mills were running on full time when the Democratic victory came. A year ago the nation was mov- ing along in a most satisfactory cbndi- tion, and there was plenty of Work. Soon after the new administration came into power the financial . panic brOke out. This is, no more than partially allayed when the tariff tinkering be- gins, and the mills are in a great meas- ure closed or running on reduced time. The country is full of the unemployed, and the workmen are petitioning Con- gress by the thousand to let the tariff alone. - . . But this is not to be done. The Pres- ident himself declared in his silver message that after the repeal ‘tariff reform” was to be undertaken, a d-the Committee on Ways and Means is con- sidering the whole tariff question with _ a view to radical departures. But a few days were given toxhcarings and now the theorists will place their views against those of the men who have built up the great mills and factories and who understand just what the in- dustries of the nation require to give the workingmcu good wages and con- stant employment. think they know all about it ever so much better. That the manufacturers expect im- portant changes is apparent from their addresses to the committee. - They give reasons and figures to prove that the existing measure ought not to be dis-- turbed, but fearing that in spite of , IO‘V. .ed this morning until _Hall of Norwalk played a match game But the theorists . (Tr lithe-the eternal offspring ,of God.— Henry Ward Beecher. _ , ,4 argument free trade theories will pre- vail, they are asking as a simple matter of justice that the new bill, whatever it may be, may not go into effect for a year or two after passage. This is nec- essary in order that business may know exactly what to expect and be able to prepare for it accordingly. * There is no sentiment or politics about business. It does not close its doors to make a political point. If the Democrats leave the manufacturers a leg to stand on' they will keep their machinery running. But whatever the nature of the new bill experiments alone will prove what can and what cannot be done under it. If the Dem- ocratic Congress is wise, therefore, it will give the business interests 9. chance to look around before it putsbn the brakes. ,It would» show even greater wisdom if it would let the tariff alone entirely. ‘ TERSE TALES Of THE “MES.

The crowd thronged the sidewalk and he was so full that he couldn’t even look down. She wanted him to go home and was piloting him along by one arm. It was a hardjob. He lurched and swayed from one side to the other, bumping in- to sober people, and giving her all she wanted to keep him going. But she pluckily held on and never let him es- cape, or make headway in the wrong direction. Her devotion was worthy a better reward. + Killed by the Ghost Train. James McTighe, about 62 years of age and the father-in-law of Dr. Henry , J. Jordan of Stamford, was killed by the ghost train at the depot at 4:50 O’clock Monday afternoon- He had gone down from Noroton, where he had been collecting bills for the doctor, and stood on the track as the train ap- proached from New Haven. The ghost, bound cast, was going at a high rate of speed and struck him before he could get out of the way. His body was thrown over 20 feet. He was dead when picked up. Death was due to a fracture of the skull. The Barry—Henry Case. The case of Miss Nellie E. Barry. vs. James E. Henry was tried before a 1 my in the Isaacs street court room Monday afternoon, Justice Austin sitting in the judical chair. The charge against Mr. Henry was slander or the use of lan- guage defamatory to Miss Barry. A number of witnesses 'were examined. Their testimony was somewhat con- fiicting. Miss Barry sued to recover monetary damages, but this was not urged by her attorney, Mr. Walsh, who in his plea gave it to be understood that what he sought was a vindication of his clients character as against the accusations of Henry. The jury found a verdict in favor of the plaintiff by finding Henry guilty and suggesting that a fine of $1 and costs be imposed, which judgment was rendered by J us- tice Austin. -_—<*>—-————-— A Tie. . A tie, which very rarely occurs, says the Advocate,was the result of the crick- et-matoh at the dyke on Saturday after- noon between the Stamford Scottish Cricket club and the Norwalk Cricket club, each side scoring thirty-four runs? There was a small crowd present to wit- ness the game. The Stamford players outbattled their opponents, and at one time,with eight men out and seven runs yet to be made by the Norwalk team, were quite sure of the game, but a cost- ly error allowed their opponents to get in thoso seven runs and tie the game. The bowling of Williamson of the Nor- walk team was very fine, he taking sev- eral wickets during the game. The Scottish Cricket club will play a return match with the Norwalk Cricket club at some future date.

THE GOSPEL OF HUMANITY Exalted Opinion of the Marriage Bela- tion—Tho Worship of God in Man—Any _Roligion Better Than None—All Roll- gions Preparations (of Christianity. CHICAGO, Sep. 26. -—A paper entitled “A White Life for Two,” prepared by Miss Frances E. Willard, was read at the evening session of the religious congress by Secretary Pipe, The paper set forth that upon the faithfulness of two lives linked together to each other depended the sanctity of the home, the purity of tho church, the stability of society, . and tho safety of the nation. ‘ Marriage was tho sum of earthly weal or 'woe to those that share its sacrament. From a long _ obser- vation she had arrived at the conclusion that men loved home better than women. Miss Susan B. Anthony read a. paper prepared by Elizabeth Cady Stanton en- titled “The Worship of God in Man." In the opinion of the writer of this paper the next form of religion will be the religion of humanity in which men and women will worship what they see of the divine 0! each other—tho virtues, beatitudes, attri- butes and possibilities of Deity as reflected in moral beings. The new religion would teach the dignity of human nature and Its individual possibilities or development. Rev. Francis E. Clark, D. D., founder of the Young PeOple’s society of Christian Endeavor, read the closing paper of the evening. “However bad things may have been with religion,” he said, “they would have been worse without it. ‘Hate, lust, envy, malice, untruthfulness, had no creed and hell had no religion. Supersti- tion without religion would rule without check. China without Confucius would infinitely worse than China with Confucius. As religions of all kinds were preparations for Christianity, Christian unity, the union of all creeds, was looked upon as an ideal, but every great cause for which men fought, worked and died, had been an ideal at its inception.” - THANKS IN CAS H.
