SAFETY APPLIANCES.
Comparative Cost OF Railroad Oper-
alton I'm Different Countries.

comparative, Cost OF Railroad Oper-
alton In Different Countries.
The railroads of the United States have
cost about $4,000 per nile, and probably
considerable per cent OF this has not
entered into the construction vi the rail
roads and the equipment of same. The
railroads OF the kingdom Of Great Britain
have cost about $4,000 a mile. and yet
we claim for the United States more lux
urious travel than can be found in Great
Britain; and this Is true. so long as the
travel is SAFE The difference In the cost
OF construction in the United States and
England may be found In the item Of safety
appliances. The railroads OF Great Britain
carried during the last year 300. 900 900 pas
sengers, with safety TO all but five, and
this was possibly because the railroads in
stead of expending their capital in luxuri
Gus equipment and passenger stations,
chose rather to equip their lines with the
most improved signaling and interlocklng.
The railroad companies of this country in
expanding large sums for handsome and
convenient terminals and luxurious cars
are placing monuments before the public
eye. which naturally lead to the belief
that every appointment of such roads is on
the same high plane. and 1t requires much
less expenditure to furnish luxurious
equipment to be carried over 1000 miles of
read than it does to equip ten miles Of the
1000 so els to make II SAFE; and Since the
expenditure for safety appliances and
permanent way is not seen and felt by the
passenger. so long as he is carried in safe
ty, it is not therefore, so prominent before
the public gaze as the handsome station
and the psaitial car. II may be interesting
to note that on one road in Great Britain.
having but 2000 miles of track, there are
employed more men in the manufacture
and installation of signal work than are
employed by all the signal companies AID
in the signal departments OF all the rail-
roads in the United ates, where we are
now operating about $4,000 miles.
