lshmcnt of its works. paid the highest market
price for labor and never had IL strike or dis
agreement with its employees. but that the new
Tariff bill just published would make il impos-
siblc to nm the works without reduction of
wages The company stated that il had been
asserted from time TO time that the new Dem
ocratc tariff would not be adverse 10 manu-
featuring interests. and therefore had kept itS
works in operation through all the periods of
business depression, but that the new bill now
reported, if passed, would make it absolutely
necessary to reduce the entire scale of wages

In the case Of Il recent fatal accident caused
by one OF the trolley ears in Brooklyn the
Coroners jury eXoncrated the motorman from
all blame but censured the company severely
for running it's ears a a dangerously high rate
Of speed. and for net having sufficient safe
guards for the protection of human life. This
is "A sensible verdict. II the motormen send their
cars along too fast. it is because their employers
insist on having the route covered in a certain
time. so that the men in charge of the ears
have no alternative but to run at dangerous
speed. The president Of one Of the companies,
however, seriously proposed some time ago
that the motornen should be held responsible
for all mishaps and nned or otherwise suitably
punished. A better principle to adopt would be
that OF the famous device for securing safety
