Every Dispatcher Bound to Cause One

lChicago NALL
1T is only question OF time, said
Mr.. Il. b. Chandler, the telegraph man,
few days ago, "when every train dis
patcher will get two trains started toward
each other on the same track. de may,
and most always does, get them stopped
somehow, but it is always done by a
scratch. aud some day they will go to-
gether with a smash, and his bsir will
turn gray with the horror of his blunder.
''It is only question of time with us
all, said an oid-time engineer, as ne
stood looking at bis painting engine, after
bringing in one of his fast trains, lie
was talking of the accident on the Nickel
Plate. Less than a year ago had
narrow escape from even q worse acci-
dent. | vAt-z running the fast tram
toward Chicago. / got orders to meet
No. express at certain station where
| was to sidetrack and wait for It,
made my run, aud had just barely got on
the side track, when No. |, going north
at not less than forty miles an hour.
went whirling by My heart came up in
nv mouth. Had / been ten seconds
later / and my train wonld have been
ground to pieces, for we would have
come together at the speed No. was
making, and as that train was very
heavy one. mine would simply have
been ground to powder. The secret OF
the thing was that No. bad been or
dered to meet me at the station next
west of the place where was ordered to
meet it. Both of us were running at
full speed to make the points OF meeting
as directed. / made mine on time, as
directed. and No. didn't, aud that fact
saved the most disastrous wreck you
ever heard of.
mo, | don't think there is any more
danger in running at night than IN day
light. It's pretty much all matter of
faith, anyway. You get orders that the
track is clear for so far; you are TO run
there in certain time and get further
orders. You must rely on what you get
and obey, for it is as dangerous to stand
still as go ahead, and more dangerous
still TO lay and try to look out for dam
ger. You cant do that. To tell you
the truth, il it were not for its company
| would as soon not have any headlight
at all, 1t don't show you any danger
there may be in time to avoid ii. 1t just
serves to light up the track little at
stations, and that is about all the real
good it is to us. Ii another was coming
right at you on the same track, it is
about even you wouldn't see it in time to
stop and prevent crash unless the track
vas perfectly straight"
