Hut even then the highe.t «peed .eri- ou.ly contemplated a. economical wa. »0 mile, an hour, with 50 a. the matii mum at very farorable point«. Jt i. probable that the notion« then plau.ibiy .upported ha»e had a certain effect in practice during the Interven ing period, although unquestionably the one great reason why freight train »peed, bate been run up to the wasteful height that they hare now rrached i> the pre.aure for getting und holding competitive traffic. Engineering con rideration« have had mighty little Iodo with the cate. A reform «uch a. 1« pro|ioaed fall. Into thevame elaa. a. reduction of paaaenger train »peed, and cutting of duplicate par.enger iwrvice a kind of reform often diwuMed, but in which little haa yet been accompli.bed. A wine control of freight train .peed, would not reduce the expenditure of productive energy, but II would save waate,and »oit would not only add to the wealth of the rail road companie. which might have the courage to carry out .oeli a reform, but it would add to the wealth of the world. We judge that there can lee little ques tion a. to the po.aileilitj of such a aav- ing, considered from an engineering ttandpoint. The great difficulty will come from the trafile department. But the engineer, can al least try toannlyxe the subject and to .tat« somewhat defi nitely the sources of waste and the amount of the economies to be |msaibly attained. It 1« obvious that at slow »peed, heav ier train« can be hauled. We at once Introduce here an economy in wages. If we do the same work with three train, that wa. formerly done with five train, we save a part of the wage, of the crews of two trains. Obviously, all of the.» wages cannot lie saved, because a. train, are run slower they must be longeron the road. and. although wage, are based on th« length ot run, still they mult ultimately come down to tlie Imsis of time spent. In .pile of the ingenious argument that the longer the locomotive is on the road the greater will be the loss of heat by radiation, nevertheless, It will prob ably be admitted by almost everybody that a great deal of fuel can be saved by runlng freight train, »lower Ilian many of them are now run. Inasmuch as a greater amount of heal energy in the coal will lie transferrred to available energy in the .team at soma compara tively low .peed. These, we take It, are the chief ele ments of economy, namely, wagesand fuel, but there are other elements w Inch must be Important. The reduction of the co.t of maintenance of track nml equipment would l»e considerable Aside from the saving in normal wear and tear, ther« would I* a certain sav ing probably not great, but still sig nlAcant In the loss», through acci dents. It I. a matter of common knowl edge that many derailment., .uch, for example, aa those from broken wheels, have been made much more costly by high speed than would have been the case at low «peed. It I. not clear that, generally speak ing. a saving could be made by the more regular and uninterrupted movement of the traffic over the road If freight trains were run at low average speeds. It is raay to .ee that with a mixed I raf fle the operating difficulties might be increased, bttl on the other hand, it seem, reasonable that on most roads freight trains could jog along at n slow and steady pace and keep their inter val. and keep out of the »ay of the rela lively tew fast train, just a. well as If the average freight train .peed was high. I’owlbly they couh) do this even better at a normally low .chedule Hailroad Gasette. GETTING AN ANTIQUE CHEAJ'. PART OF WRECKED SHIP. .
