6 THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. RAILROADS, PAST AND PRESENT. A Talk Before the Philosophical Society of Washington. MR. WATKINS DISCUSSES THE DIFFERENCES BE- TWEEN ENGLISH AND AMERICAN SYSTEMS—HOW THE RAILROAD BECAME POSSIBLE—THE BEGIN- SINGS OF MODERN TRANSPORTATION. A table in the assembly room of the Cosmos club was covered Saturday evening with speci- mens of old fashioned railroad tracks and models and drawings illustrating the develop- ment of the rail, the locomotive and the rail- way car. These were used to give point to re- marks made by Mr. J. Elfreth Watkins, curator of the section of transportation at the National musenm in a paper on “The Origin of the Rail- way Systems of England and America, and the Canses of the Difference: Mr. Watkins first discussed the beginnings of modern transpor- tation. The time was ripe for the railroad and the steam locomotive when it came. In England the demand for coal becoming more and more urgent as the forests disappeared directed thought toward the improvement of modes of transporting it from the collieries. The growth of the iron industry also called for cheap methods of procuring coal, Wooden rails, from the colliexies to the water courses, on which cars were drawn by horses, materially reduced the cost of coal used for manufactu ing and for household purposes, The improv ments made by Watt in the steam-engine, b tween 1775 and 1785, aided in mining coal and inereased the production. As coal was cheap- ened the price of iron was reduced, and it b came possible to use iron rails for the tram roads. Mr. Watkins traced the development of the rail and exhibited drawings of the rail, designed by Robert Stevens, of America, the first rail rolled with a base, which marks the | American system. EARLY CONDITIONS IX AMERICA. Coal was mined on the James river in Vir- ginia as early as 0, and was used at the Westham foundry to manufacture shot and shell | during the revolutionary war. As in England, tram roads were employed as a means of trans- portation. The first locomotive that ever turned a driving wheel on the western conti- nent was imported from England in 1829 for use on a coai railroad. Thus coal. iron and the railroad, even before the invention of the loco- motive, had become equally important pillars | in the foundation of the great systems of trans- portation. Mr. Watkins discussed briefly the different stages of the development of the steam engine up to the production of the locomo- tive—Watts’ stationary low pressure steam en- gine. the high pressure stationary engine, and the high pressure locomotive, with a muititu- bular boiler and steam blast. America, with its many navigable rivers, he said, presented a much more urgent need for the steamboat than the United Kingdom. If Soho. with Watts’ ma- chine shops and trained mechanies, had been | transferred to the vicinity of New York, he be- lieved steamboats would have been running on the Hudson, the Raritan and the Delaware long | before the close of the last centary, A STORY OF FULTON, Mr. Watkins told an interesting story of the | manner in which Fulton procured the means | for building the “Clermont.” Napoleon, in 1305, wanting to devise some means of towing barges with troops from the French coast to | England, believing that if he cguld get a few | hours the start of the English’ fleet he could march an army into London. Being familiar | with Fulton's experime on the Seme, he | sent for Fuiton. The English government ON, paid Fulton a large sum, said to be £7,000 or £3,000, to return, and with this money Watt the mes for the Clermont. Mr. | marry a Parisian financie: Ad develope the resources of our nation, so that, after all, the birth and development of the English and American: railroad systems _has been the result of the same_natural conditions that cause the creation, modification or extinc- tion of species of flora and fauna, PROBLEMS OF THE FUTURE. * But what of the future? Who dares conjec- ture? The question of exhausting the supply of coal in the storehouse of mother earth is only a matter of time. Petroleum fuel and natural gas, now largely used in the arts and manufactures, must sooner or later be consumed. There seems to be a limit to all things except to the newer power, of which we know so little and expect so much, Is a better metal to replace iron? Is a greater ower to supersede steam? Is our ingenuity in ime railroads and inventing locomotives to be classed among the lost arts by the historian of the fortieth or fiftieth century, as is the handiwork of the artisans who built the iron Pillar in the temple of Cruttub, at Delhi? A NEW VERSIO) Circumstances Attending the Tragedy of Crown Prince Rudolph’s Death. Cable Special to the New York Sun, When I arrrived in London recently I wrote to a world-famous physician in Vienna for the true history of the astounding tragedy of the Crown Prince Rudolph’s death. The physician in question is a man who stands high at court and is thoroughly in touch with royal affairs. I also wrote to an Austrian officer whom I had known both in Vienna and New York, besides secking particulars from the managing director of a big Vienna newspaper who has been of service to the Sun several times, Their re- plies, to my surprise, all agreed upon the main facts. The story differs from the version ac- cepted in America. ‘fhe late crown prince’s fiervous system, which was never strong. had been impaired by a Jong series of appulling dissipation, gross protligacy. and excesses of all kinds, A start- ling number of families of all ranks connected with the imperial court tell of the shame which the crown prince brought upon them. At his debanches he used to drink tumblers partly filled with champagne and partly with brandy. Such courses, in addition to reducing him to a state of mental and physical wretchedness, brought about quarrels of a very bitter nature with his wife and his father.

She was not the kind to overlook her band’s excesses, and there were violent scenes between the pair. Eventu- ally they decided to live apart, although they always went about together in public. Those who know the true inwardness of things were amazed at the play-acting which Rudolph and his wife kept up before the world. Abont six months ago the crown prince be- came violently enamored of Baronesa Marie Vet- sera, who belonged to a rich Austrian family. The family is well known generally among the smart people of the European capitals. ‘The baroness was a remarkably beautiful girl. She was tall. with long black hair. large dark eyes, and irregular, but charming features, Ru- dolph’s love was of amore enduring and worthy kind than in other cases. He loathed the arti- ficial yoke which bound him to his wife, and at an uncertain date he sent a formal petition, drafted by an ecclesiastical dignitary, to the pope applying for a divorce. The petition was referred to the emperor of Austria, who indig- nantly remonstrated with his son. Things were in = state a week before the crown prince's death, The baroness, on her part, was encountering equally great opposition in her own family; the latter were determined that she shouid but she was already deeply in love with the heir to the throne.

Tracks were | ith heavy iron rails attached by | strong chairs to stone sleepers imbedded in stone ballast. With the exception of making the rail heavier and substituting iron and wooden cross-ties and improving the joints, there has been no great change in the English system of track laying in the last fifty years, The stations at the start were made objects of architectural beant tat that time the only plice in the United States where engineering was taught was West Point. When the cornerstone of the Baltimore | and Ohio's road was Jaid in 1828, | there was not a rolling mill in the United States where T-rails of the character laid on the Man- chester and Liverpool railway conld be rolled. ‘The only rails rolied in America for several Years were strap rails. The Delaware and judson canal company was obliged to importa locomotive from England in 1529. Most Amer- ican roads in the early days were laid with wooden rails capped with strap iron. The Mount Savage rolling mill, in Alleghany county Md.. rolled the first rails in America in 18f4. | The first T-rails were rolled at Danville, Pa., in the following year. The bridges were sim: | le timber structures, while in England the rst railway bridges were substantial iron or stone structures, which are still standing. In | America, Mr. Watkins said, it would be difti- cult to find a railroad bridge which had not been rebuilt in the last fifty years, He ex-| cepted the stone viaducts constructed by the Baltimore and Ohio. English capital cut through instead of passing around rocky hills, THE PIONEER RAILROADS, In this country railroads passing through Sparsely-settled districts had to be built cheaply | or not at all. The construction of English roads in 1835 cost $20,000 a mile; in thisjcoun- try the cost was from £2.000 to $4,000. The Manchester and Liverpool road cost #83,000 a mile. In this country some singletrack roads had been Luiit where the topography was fay- | orable as cheap as $200 a mile, and such roads | had pertormed important service in developing the country. The projectors of early Amer- ican roads had difficulties in getting conces- sions. They were opposed by farmers, who | feared that if steam took the place of horses it would lessen the demand for hay and oats. Persons interested in stage coach lines also op- posed the railroads, the mode of construction of tracks had its effect in developmg types of | locomotives. The small amoant of curvature on English roads permitted the construction of | locomotives with a rigid axle, and without a “bogie” or truck. The police regulations ren- dered the steam-whistle and cowcatcher unne- | cessary. In this country, wood being plenty, it was used for fuel. and this led to the difference in the construction of locomotives. | ENGLISH AND AMERICAN CARS. The condition of society in England, and the j exclusiveness of the high classes had bronght the compartment car into use in England, and | this in turn had led to different syetems of train handling. In America, a more democratic country, the old stage-body cars were soon re- placed by the long rectangular car, with an aisle in the middle and a swiveling truck. On account of the slight curves on English railways carriages were made with four or six wheels with a rigid axle, and could be made lighter, requiring less brake power. The Englishman's habits of keeping his luggage with him led to the placing of Inggage racks in every car, and the rule on English hi 's of keeping to the left was followed on all [uglish railways. As America has developed and forests have been | | | It was the last wild freak | feet from top to bottom when the sk Vetse mily brought the pair to desperation, Tired of the world and hopeless of obtaining the happiness which they desired, they resolved to die. The lovers went off to the isolated castle of Meyerling, accompanied only by Count Joseph Hoyos, who considered it an honor to assist two such lovers to meet each other, In Vienna, how the imperial family heard with consternation of the rendezvous, and Prince Philip of Coburg, the crown prince's brother-in-law. was sent to bring Rudolph but Prince Philip met with such a curt eption that he went Beck alone. That night the prince. the baroness, and Count Hoyos had dinner together,’ and were made merry during the remainder of the evening by one Craterish, an outcast cabman of Vienna, who sang comic songs in a room adjoining that occupied by the prince and his guests, The spectacle of the heir to one of the great em- pizes of Europe sitting with a girl whom he had wronged, both of them resolved on death, and both listening to the ribald songs of a drunken cabman before going to their doom is dramatic in the extreme. A debauch followed, of utter desperation andself-abandonment. On Wednesday morn- ing the prince's valet went early to his master’s room to inform him that Prince Phillip of Co- burg had again come from Vienna. ‘The door was locked. All those in the house gathered aud broke it open. On the bed they saw the crown prince and Marie Vetsera dead. The gir a taken strychnine, a packet which contained that poison being found The prince's left arm clasped Marie's he revolver with which he had shot himself through the brain lay in his right hand. It is not surprising that the horrible death of Crown Prince Rudolph should have had serious consequences on the health of his mother, who has for along time been ailing. The empress is now suffering from severe men- tal trouble in addition to her constitutional complaint of rheumatism. How ill she is is shown by the fact that for three weeks the emperor never left her at all. even for exercise, The two have been notoriously in a permanent state of quarreling, induced. probably, by his y's excessive gaiety, but iliness has drawn em together again. The empress will prob- bly go to Wiesbaden for massage treatment before long. A villa has been prepared there for her.
