HIGH RAILROAD SP O.
The Coaditious Essential to Atta the
Most Itapoi Transit.
In all discussious of high spee
should be remembered that a higit Ina 1 -
taunt speed is not what is Wantutl Ut
a high average speed. The saving' of
tirue between terminals depend upoti
the average speed, not upou the maxi-
mum. The maximum may be high,and
yet the average be low. A quick run
from New York • city to Menge' would
be 18 hours, and this would require an
average speed of only 25 miles an hour.
A maximum speed of 100 miles an hour
is unnecessarily high to give au average
of 55 miles. The distance froin Jersey.
City to Philadelphia is 98 miles, altd
the run is now made in 1.95 hours,
which gives an average speed of 46 finites -
au hour. To make the run in 1.5 hours
requirea an average speed of about 60
mimes an hour, so that it is clear
that the high speed now asked
for by the public is not a high
maximum, but a high average, and
to tueet the demand or quick service •
there must be steady ruuniug at
O aeasonable speed. High maxi.
mum speed is 'apt:Macular, but not prac-
tical, while high average speed is a real
