_ Fatal Carelessness.
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

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. ‘

She Lugged Him Home.
One of the pitiful sights of the street
Saturday evening,was a woman leading
her intoxicated husband up Main street.
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.” -
