The New York, New Haven Hart- lord some months ago -what is undoubtedly the most luxurious passenger accommodations, exclusive of those afforded by private cars, to be found on any road In the country.

The equipment for tills service, which was built by the Pullman Company, consists of a corridor-compartment car attached to each of the "Second Midnight" -expresses, leaving New York and Boston simultaneously at 1 a. m. and composed of through sleeping cars for the above destinations only. The distinguishing feature of the compartment cars lies in the fact that there has been substituted for the usual upper and lower berths full length brass beds, each four feet in width. Each car, as the plan shows, contains seven compartments, each having an independent annex with toilet, wash stand, mirror and dresser shelf.

In each compartment, besides the bed, there Is a dresser, two chairs, a folding table and an electric fan. Electric lights are conveniently disposed both on partitions and ceilings. Two pairs of compartments are Intercommunicating, making possible their occupancy as suites as in the modem hotel and chib buildings. The woods used In finishing are English oak, Cuban mahogany, vermilion and kokoi producing very rich effects without over- ornamentation. By means of a thermostatic control apparatus, each passenger Is enabled to rcKiilate the heat In his compartment In accordance with his own desires, a mp.ttcr of whii-h probably more complaint is made by travelers In the 4Siial type of sleeping car than any other.
