Train Telegraph.

By Editor

THE editor of the Santa Barbara Press, C. F. McGlashan, has invented a Train Telegraph, the object of which is to put a running train in connection with the office of the Train Despatcher, so that the train may at all times be under his control, and thereby avoid the possibility of collisions. It also puts two running trains in connection with each other, so that each may know the exact position of the other. We have seen a drawing of the apparatus, with the statement that it worked well on trial. If it proves to be successful, it must be very valuable.
