In the year 1890 2se passengers were
killed in railway accidents in this coun.
try. In the same time 2.45l railway
employees were killed. though there are
probably 100 passengers to every en-
ployee. In 1890 2.425 passengers and
@. 900 employees were injured. The pro-
portion is about the same each year
These figures will enable one to under
stand why the automatic car coupler
bill over which there was such fght in
congress last winter was passed. Under
that law. instead OF the common hand
brake. power brakes must be used on
freight as we'll as passenger trains. With
these the engineer can control the speed
Of train. By the provisions.of this act
brakemen will no longer be compelled
to go between cars to couple them, but
instead an automatic coupler must be
employed. Grab irons and hand holds
must also be provided as the interstate
commerce commission may direct.
When this law comes into operation, the
slaughter. Of railroad employees will
probably be stopped to a great extent.
There is time for the killing of 100000
or 40 Of the unfortunate fellows yet.

nies will not be forced to use power
