A PREVENTIVE OF RAILROAD ACCIDENTS
Inquiring into the causes Of railway disas-
tiers, the Philadelphia North American
comes to the conclusion that "there is some.
thing fatally wrong either in our system Of
construction or our management Of rail.
roads" and argues in favor Of the general
adoption Of an educational system, having
especial reference to the early training Of
civil engineers. 1t says
"The scientific education Of civil engin'
GERS is indeed of much more consequence
than that Of military engineers. This fact
has long since been fully recognized on thu
continent Of Europe in the erection OF Po-
lytechnic Colleges, on plan similar to tina,
Of L'Ecole Polptechnique, of Paris, or TIT
West Point Academy, with this difference
only, that the course Of instruction relates
to operations IN civil, instead Of military
engineering. The beneficial results Of thes'
adjustments are certainly discernablc il
the relative statistics of railroad accident
in those countries and our own Anon,
the former we believe there is not singh
instance Of the tumbling down Of any i'm
portant structure. We are convinced tina
although scientific education of civil enSin
GERS, and the appointment of persons 30 pre-
pared by practice and recommended by year
Of experience, not alone for the building O
railroads, but also for their mechanical man
asement, would prove one Of the surcst IN
most efectual.
