Norwalk’s Dangerous Crossing-

We are glad to observe, as we do from
the Sentinel, that South Norwalk’s young
and energetic mayor is not disposed to
slumber over our death-dealing railroad
crossing even if the Consolidated railroad
officials are thus inclined. The railroad
crossing at Washington and Main streets,
South Norwalk, is known to be, by rail-
road men and others, the most dangerous
of any in Connecticut. Accident after
accident, fatal and otherwise, hairbreadth
escapes without number, make up the
record of that perilous spot. It was a
'most wretched and short sighted pieceof

 

 

I railroad engineering that ever so located a;

track through the heart of a thickly popu--
lated community, and every year's growth
of that thriving settlement has largely and
increasingly augmented the danger. A
sharp curve towards the harbor bridge
and the depot towards New York largely
hide and prevent the chances for visual
observation, and the multiplicity of trains
of all sorts frequently confuse and dis-
concert both flagman and those attempt-
ing to make a crossing‘fin front of the
rapidly flying locomotives. Gates, un-
sightly as they are, would be far prefer-
able to the present system of a single flag-
man. But a depression or elevation of
the tracks at this point would be very
greatly more secure, than either of the
above systems. Mr. Bishop, when presi-
dent of the road, thought that the tracks
there might be depressed several feet, and
a neat iron bridge erected overhead for
the public to cross in safety. South Nor-
walk, hOWever, has now become such a
populous and thriving business centre
that its people would feel entirely too
ambitious and jealous of their rights to
consent to the climbing of a bridge of
however slight elevation whenever com-
pelled to cross the railroad company’s
tracks. The other scheme of elevating
the tracks has recently found many advo-
cates. By this method the people could
pass under the tracks in safety at all
times. It would require a large outlay to
regrade the tracks up to the necessary
height so that teams ,of all sorts could
pass under. It would also require the
raising of the depot and its approaches,
and the lifting up of the great bridge
across the«harbor. The city would op-
pose laying a tax to pay» the expense, and
the railroad company using their present
purchased roadbed would scarce be will-
ing to tax their stockholders for so radi-
cal and expensive an operation. Indeed,
as broadly intimated in President Watrous’
letter to the mayor, his company would
be more likely to pull up their tracks and
move southeastward to a better layout
and less dangerous point of crossing the
city’s highways. This is no new project
but has been many times mentioned and
considered. Had an air line been sur-
veyed and laid out from Westport to

Darien, itissaid, at least a mile in dis.
tance and several or the meanest curves

on the entire line of the road could have
been saved. The line would then have

crossed our harbor a little west of
Gregory’s Point on the east shore, and of

Burritt’s Island on the west, and struck a

straight line a little below Springwood, or

Whistleville as it is familiarly called.
Such a radical change as this would send
the depot down to a point at or near the
lower watering tank on the;Wilson Point
road, and would create a greater clamor
on the part of property owners and busi-
ness men, located near the present depot
than have all the maimings or murders,
heretofore or that ever will be committed
at the present crossing. If it be practic-
able to put the tracks on stilts so that the
public could passunder, why could 'not a
fair adjustment of the cost be made be-
tween the Daubury & Norwalk and Con-
solidated railroads and the town of Nor-
walk and the city of South Norwalk. '
A rumor is also afloat, (but 'we place
very little confidence in its truth), that the

Consolidated road has. in contemplation if _

crowded by South .Norwalk ' in this
matter beyond what it thinks to lie :just
and fair, to purchase the most southerly
layout of the Hartford & Harlem through
our town, and thus cross our harbor mid-
way between the city and borough. The
only thing that can be stated in the way
of probabilities as to a movement in this
latter direction is the absence of present
indications of vitality or purpose to move
forward in any way towards the construc-

' tion of their much threatenedlline of rail-

,

road. It may also be said that the only
signs of life manifest by the “Olmstead
Parallel” is in the vigor with which it is-
resisting claims upon its empty treasury.
Meanwhile the giant railroad corporation
of our state is reputed to have secured the
past week a controlling interest in the

New York do New England railroad, and '

thus made itself the possessor of a route
for a through and untrammeled line from
New York to Boston. President Watrous
denied yesterday that his road was seek-
ing possession of the New England road.
Still the belief is general that large pur-
chases were made only last week in the
interests of the Consolidated road. Mr.
Watrous also said that there was business
enough only for one road, and one road
was now doing satisfactorily and well all
the business ofiered, and there not being
business enough for two roads he did
not believe the parallel road was. now
seriously contemplated.

Nevertheless the South Norwalk cross-
ing should and must be made more safe
for our people.

Senator Platt’a Attitude.

Senator Platt, of Connecticut, last Mon-
day discussed the qucstiori of confirmation
of presidential appointments rather freely
in Washington. “I do not believe,". he
said, “in opposing the president because
he is a democrat. There are two things
to be considered in an appointee whose
name comes before the senate for confirm-
ation: Is he an able; man, and will he
honestly and efficiently administer the
affairs of his office? I do not think the
question of politics should be considered.
Still the president has introduced a new
element in stating that he would remove

. no one except for offensive partisanship.

To remove an offensive republican partisan
and appoint in his place a democrat who
is just as offensive in his partisanship
would appear to me rather inconsistent,
and I shall take the matter into consider.
ation when appointments come up for
confirmation. My attitude towards the
administration is, briefly, to agree with it
when I can, and differ with it when I

must."
The dispatch on the attitude of Senator

Platt towards confirming appointments is
construed editorially by the Remiblican of
Meriden to mean that the senator will en-
quire into the public utterances efInternal
Revenue Collector Troop, of New Haven,
editor of the Union, that he was appointed
by the president because he was a demo-
crat, and his predecessorremoved because
he was a republican.

Arsenic ”at. _
The prevalence of the habit of arsenic ‘
eating is just now attracting considerable
attention from all the promlhent journals
of the country. The-developments of the
Walkup trial is probably the main cause
for the sudden interest displayed in the
habit, but the rapid growth . of- the per-
nicious practice itself has served to draw
notice from those who recognize its
horrors. Dr. T. D. Crothers, in the Qua/r-
tcrly Journal of Inebrl'ety for October,
gives the following account of the case of
an Englishvetcrinary surgeoa who had
commenced the taking of arsenic in the
belief that it would protect him from
fevers. He had continued “On account
of its stimulative properties, and consulted
the doctor only after the ill eflects of the
habit had manifested themselves. 5 Says

the Journal :—
Up to 1880 he Was in good health and
did his .work well, although he was then
taking from one to two drachms of Fow-
ler’s solution of arsenic every day or
second day on account 0; exhaustion and
“bad feeling." For four years he wander-
ed fr0m place to place doing service as n
trainer and horse doctor, and during this
time the use of arsenic hadstcadily in-
creased, until he was taking three ounces
'of Fowler’s solution in_ a day. The ordin-
arydose of the dru is five dl'ops. three
times a day. He 0 n found it difficult
to procure so a'quantity of solution,
so he commen to use the powder. of
which he ate fiften or twenty grams a day.
His a ace at that time was that of
a man in good health. Hi9 face was full,
and the skin clear and :white. The eyes
were brilliant, though somewhat unsteady,
and when talkin e ..‘8¢lfl1 muscles
moved inordinate y. Hrs countenance
showed no wrinkles or marked lines. . _
walk had become deliberate and hesitatlng,
and the sensibility of his skinwaa dimin-
ished. He complained of rheumatic stiff-
ness, which was ve pronOunced when
he was deprived 0 his usual dose of
arsenic. At times he ate an inordinate
amount of food, and then would abstain
from eating for aweek or more. For a
year his sleep had been broken by bad
dreams; he would wake up covered with
perspiration, and his mind was filled with
vague and depressingl fears;- . When he
awoke in the morning a felt a. sense of
exhaustion and pressure all over the body
which“ steadily grew worse until the
arsenic was taken. Onehour after taking
the drug all this bad feeling d away,
and a sense of quiet exhilaration prevailed,
which formerly had been marked, but at
last was shorter and less distinct. Breath-
ing became difficult through any-general
exertion before taking the rug, but after
taking it no such trouble was observed.
The heart was disturbed functionally, and
he complained of failure of memorfiaud a
a general indispositlon to work. 0 was
always in doubt as to what course of
action would be best for him to pursue,
and was filled with fears and dread of
mistakes, particularly when the eflects of
the arsenic wore away. Even after takin
the usual dose the indispositiou to we
continued. He could not concentrate his
mind long on any. topic at a time. At
times he wouldbe very emotional, laugh-
ing and crying at unimportant incidents;
then he would become oblivious to all
emotion. Pride in dress and appearance
seemed to furnish the only pleasure of his
life. He would dress himself with great
care, and then pass his time in a stable or
on a hotel stoop gazing out into space in
silence. As the effect of the drug 'wore
0E he would become boastful and excit.
able. At such times his judgment was
bad, but when he had recently taken the
drug, his judgment was generally correct.

He was very methodical in his habits,
takin the drug twice a day in secret. He
bathe very often to take away a strong
odor. of the skin, which was evidently
caused by the elimination of the arsenic.
He was known to his companions as a
very changeable eccentric man, who early
in the morning and late in the afternoon
was “half crazyl’ These and other symp-
toms indicated a general failure of both
body and mind, rapidly approachin
dementia. At times he was alarmed an
w' hed to give up the use of the drug; at
,o ers he was indifferent. He told the
doctor if he could get this drug always he
never would abstain, but he found it diffi-
cult to always keep a supply.

The above will prove of more than
passing interest from the fact that there
are several victims of the drug here in
Norwalk. One case in particular is a sad
one. It is that of a young girl, not yet
twenty, who has become an abject slave
to the habit, and daily consumes enough
of the poison to kill four ordinary men.
Her deathly white face‘and feeble gait
make her an object of remark to those
unacquainted with her habit, and an ob_
ject of pity to those who know the cir-

cu instances.

Lo 1 the Poor Indian.

New Haven last Friday, Senator Dawes,
of Massachusetts, said:—“Congress finds-
itself ‘ confronted with 300,000 Indians,
nearlyall of them savage. During the
250 years the country has been settled
scarcely any impression has been made
on them, and in searching for the reason
of this-he-who would examine must find
something is radically wrong somewhere.
Today the Indians are numerically as-
strong as ever. They are not disappear-
ing, not fading out of existence, as it was
supposed and by many hoped that they
would. The red man is here to stay,
although on the supposition that he was
not going to stay he has been subjected to
all manner of treatment and injustice.”

Marmot lather.

Manager Hill announces that the fiftieth
performance of Romeo and Juliet with
Margaret Mather as J ulict will take place
at the Union Square Theatre, New York,

' on Tuesday evening, December 1. It was

the intention of the management to with-
draw the tragedy after the fiftieth per-
formance, but the patronage extended has
been so favorable, in fact Miss Mather has
proved such a decided success that, at
least, twenty-five more nights are prom-
ised. The stage .‘ setting for the play is
the most elegant and complete of any play
ever produced§anywhere, and, adding the
magnetic attraction of Miss Mather’s‘act-
ing, a trip to New York to see the pro-_
duction would be well worth:time and,
money spent. '

form, certain men are not working indi-
rectly, but none the less potently, for that

must be obtuse indeed: .

as any other refiluhlican could have done

at best, and the successful candidate just
managed .to pull through. One 9f the
thin that came nearl defeating him was
the ct that the prohi itionists ran a can.
didate who, if he had succeeded in getting
live more votes would very likely have
changed the result of the election.

Just think of it! ‘ Edwin Hoyt is the
man who got a bill through the legislature
banishing rum from county fair grounds
under nalty of forfeiting the state boun-
ty. e is the man who gave all his in-
fiuence as secretary of the count agricul-
tural society, to keep out gam ling and
rumse‘lling, and toelevate as far as ractic:
able the moral tone of these annua exhibi-
tions so they might, if 'ssible be rescued
from the sounds and sfirace which_had

otic‘ impulse, 'a sense ofrell ous duty—
by ever thin t at sway the m nd and fix

could go to prohibit rum throughout the
state. And yet this is the man that aband

lead of a “Rem,” almost succeeded in de-
for the le islature. where he has
alrea y originate an important temper-
ance enactment, and may be depended
upon beyond question to sustain and vote
for any temperance legislation that may
be proposed with the remotest hope of
success. The “Rev.” and his followers

pressibe gall to ask us to re rd their
. proceedings as a part of the fig t for"tbe
American home against the American sa-
loon." Just think of it!

Nor does the Advocate state the case as
stronglyas it might. Probably no man
in Connecticut has suffered as much in
per-sou orpropertyas Mr. Edwin Hoyt, con-
sistent and persistent because of his tem-
perance principles. His monster barns,‘
his many horses, cows, farming imple-
