Au9oaatlc Car Couplers.


An old railroad man yesterday remarked that
95 per cent Of the accidents which occur when
men are coupling cars is through their own reck
1essness. or want Of attention In his large ex-
perience he said he had never known half
dozen cases where mon had been injured in
coupling cars If they had been duly care
full Still he was In favor Of the roads
adopting uniform self ear coupler for the bene-
fit of careless trainmen. just now there are so
many automatic car eouplers that it is difficult
to select one which would not lead a railroad
company into extensive litigation, as dozen
or more would claim that che coupler selected
was an infringement on their patents. Then,
again, notwithstanding the great number Of
automatic cetiplefs invented, probably most
railroad men to-day are not convinced shat there
is one that meets the requirements. Even if
they were, they would hesitate to adopt one
which might not couple with che cars OF their
connections Thus 60 the necessity Of finding
an efficient apparatus by which cars may be
coupled without going between them there is
added the further necessity of uniform and
Simultaneous action by the railroad companies
