New York Post; The stoves ameans of heating cars on the New York Cen- tral & Hudson River railroad will soon be abolished: t vear the official of n 1 in charge of its cquipment have been actively cmplm ed in testing various devices for heating cars by mearms of steam ob- tained direct from the locomotive, and have decided on a system combining simplicity with satisfuctory results. A two-ineh steam pipe runs und each of the cars, connection be- tween the cars heing mado with a metallic joint and a sleeve. This main pipe connects with a tem of pipes inside each car,one running lengthwise of the car. with branch mpos oxtending under the seats. At the conter of each of the inierior pipes isa key by the steam from the main pipoes ean be cut off, thus reducing vhe temperature of a ~4mgle r without interfering with that of cacs more dis- tant from the locomotive, which is the source of the steam supply. Sinee the advent of the cold weather, all the cars composing the trains known as the New York, (,'hil':n,:u & St. Louis "estibule Limited, aud the New York, Chieago, Cincinnuti & St. Louis fast besides a large number of the local trains running on various parts of the road, have been suceessfully heated by this means. In a short time all the cai on the line will be fully equipped with the appliance. Chief Arthur on Accldents.

The proportion of passengers killed or jured in comparison to the number cor veyed issmall, and in a majority of ases the cause is the mistake of some As far as providing safety, com- bined with speed, the railroads of the country are fast reaching the highest point. ~ I belicve that, as yeavs roll by, uceidents will be still less ‘frequent, but some will occur as long a8 the world stands. The block system in use on the Pennsylvania lines is one of che . best safegunrds against accidents. Undor this no train can leave one station until the next one has been heard from. Thi most perfect, and willno doubt b generally adopted, Nothing but a blunder on the part of the operator can 1se an accident by this method, as the track is always l,ln,.n for incoming and outgoing trains.’ Heating and Coupling. York There was a meeting of rail ives, agenis and putentecs of steam pipe couplers for i 5 before the railrogd com- missioners of New York last week, This was in pursuance of a request by the commission looking to the adoption of a uniforia coupler by railroads. The dozen or more roads represented equippel with nearly as mwany diffceent patent couplers, Some of these roads change ears with a half a dozen othors, and to them the adoption of a uniform coupler is most urgent. Buthaving got in shape to compiy with the law provid- ing for steam heating, they do not ocare to go to the expense or trouble of chaug- ing the system attached, The only way to obviate difficulty and to use cars of other roads is to have intermediato pieces contnining both kinds of coup: ers. These, it was suggested, would get lost, and the unattached cars be lofs without hed Superinte New York Central re cessity of adopting st s eight years ago, and equipped five trains then with flexible rubber hose.
