Horse Railroads are institutions in Boston.
A Committee of the Board of Aldermen re-
Gently made report upon the effect of these

1t is well established fact that crowded
streets, with horse railroads in them, are less
liable to be blocked than those who have none.
for the reason that the cars help to keep an
open communication. 1t is also a we'll ostab-
lished TACT that there is no mode of conveyance
less liable to accidents. The horse railroad
returns of the last year show but seven acci-
dents out of 7,G49 026 passengers carried, or
less than one accident to 100000 passengers,
and but one of these was fatal. The returns
OF the common railroads for the same time
show 76 accidents out of l0907, ,455 passen-
gers, As Of which were fatal. This shows, in
one case, fatality of about Al in 1000, 900,
while in the other It is only in nearly s.O0O,-
0O0 difference of nearly SO tol.
The number Of passengers carried upon our
horse railroads for the last year was nearly
eight millions, and it must soon exceed ten
millions per year. This is over 27 900 per day,
Sundays included. The transportation of this
number, through the streets by Omnibuses, or
any other kind cf carriages, would operate as q
thorough blockade.
The number Of passengers carried on the
Metropolitan road alone, for the present year, il
estimated at 100000, or $4,000 day. To
transport this Eumber in OmnibuseS would rs-
quire one to start about every thirty seconds
for fifteen hours in each day But az the rush
of passengers is at morning and evening, the
transport of this number by Omnibuses would
be next to an impossibility; and yet the Metro
politan road carried on the 4th of July over
$4,000 passengers
1t is therefore apparent that well conducted
horse railroads in large thOrOughiareS ars re-
obstruction.
