THE accident yesterday on the
street car lines, and the repetition
of such accidents in every city in
which electric or cable cars run,
emphasizes the need of tenders to
be operated at the will of the mo-
tor man, which dropped before the
wheels instantaneously will pre-
vent any one from being drawn
under the wheels. Such a device
has been patented, to be operated
by a simple pressure of the motor
mans foot. 1t drops instantane-
Ously and would effectually pre-
vent such an accident as that
which happened to Young Moore
yesterday. The saving of life
should be made as much a study
as the prOlongation of life, or the
destruction of it by the scaffold and
the dungeon.
