THREE DEATH TRAPS.
Dangerous Condition Of Bridges
in Jersey City-Citizens
Justly Indignant.

The shocking accident which occurred
the day before yesterday al the Bergen
avenue bridge crossing on the tracks Of
the Newark and New York branch of the
Central Railroad. by which little Harry
Murvihill lost his life IN falling down the
embankment onto the tracks below in
front Of an advancing engine. has again
brought the attention Of the public TO the
highly dangerous condition Of several Of
the railroad bridges within the city's
limits.
It is not too much to say that in no city
in this State does there exist a graver men,
ace toythe lives OF the children than the
bridges crossing this railroad passing
through Jersey City at Clerk street, Jack
son ard Bergen If ever there
were death-traps into which the little
ones can walk easily these are the
places, and It seems strange that in spite
Of repeated appeals the a VIII DO
nothing TO remove the source Of danger.
There is no doub. a great deal of fault
to be found with the bridges for which
the Freeholders are responsible, III that
doesn't lessen the responsibility OF the
railroad eompan in not making it almost
impossible for the children TO get onto the
tracks.
So far as the Freehoiders are concerned,
the bridges are not properly guarded, and
an Instance Of that may be found at both
Clerk street n JACKSON venue. 1t IS
an extremely easy thing for the young
sters TO Chamber onto the low railing, and
It is a daily occurrence at Jackson avenue
tc see a score of boys actually sitting
on the top rail while fifty feet below is
the railroad track.
The approaches to the. bridges men
toned are in a wretehed state. Take
Clerk street and Arlington avenue as
examples. Il these points there is alb
solutely nothing to save the little ones
from getting onto the emhankrnent. Where
the dreadful accident took place thai
embankment itself is extremely dam
gerous.
After the SD death Of Harry Murvihill
there We're loud denominations made
against the railroad company fer its care
lessness. and the County Superintendent
for his neglect. It is the duty OF the
latter 10 inspect these places, and many
people say thar If ne were once TO look
at them, If he appreciated the obligations
Of his position. he would at once report
to the Freeholders. who would at once
TAX some steps to remove the source Of
danger.
All the residents IN the section where
the above bridges. are, are very indignant
that nothing has been done to prevent ac-
cidents at these points. and some of them
talk about going 10 the Grand Jury and
laying the matter before that body.
