The Harrisburg Telegraph of last We'd
nesday says: Within two squares on New
Fifth street, during the last six weeks, there
were no less than five brakemen lying who
were injured more or less while engaged on
the railroad. Two had their arms amputa-
ted. one lost a number of fingers, and two
had their arms crushed in such manner as
will disable them for life. This is, of course,
an isolated spot, the number of men hurt in
this manner along the line OF all roads be
ing enormous. There are few improve
nents made or devices adopted by railroad
companies to protect men from injury while
coupling cars. 1t all depends on their own
e4pertness and skill.
