THE RETIREMENT OF MR.. PARSONS

The resignation of he chief engineer of the
Rapid Transit Commits zion was unexpected, but
is BY no means unac pOuritable. Mr. Parsons
hat established reputation which enables him
TO select for acceptan ce from many offers of
emf loyment those whicH most interest him, and
it is not strange that ftar ten years of subway
work i'll New-York he should prefer TO reserve
more time for other Fl eh1s of activity. In re-
ferring TO new plans ha does not speak of the
Panama. Canal Commi sSiOn, of which he is Il
member, but it is natur al to assume that he has
taken Into particular account the obligations
and opportunities conn ected with the vast I'M
dertaking on the isthI aus. No other engineer
ing enterprise Of con parable magnitude and
interest is under exec alton or In prospect any
where in the world, nd it may reasonably be
supposed that both inc ainatiOn and duty prompt
him to make it his ch ief concern.
II is true that the lrst stage Of subway con-
str7ction in this city has been virtually COM
plesed, and that most of the grave problems
whi,yh work of that ch Rracter involves have been
solved largely by the skill and patient labor Of
Mr.. Parsons himself Nevertheless his retire
ment will cause general regret for other under
ground roads must be built without unnecessary
delay new methods and devices to diminish
public discomfort shoud be employed as far as
practica BILE. and his experience would be of
special value. There is no need of reminding
the people of the manifold distresses which they
endured SO long for tie sake of benefits to come
Some of them, as everybody now perceives
might have been avoided, but for most of the
abuses freely and justly complained of during
the latter part of the work sub-contractors We're
responsible. The chief engineer addressing
himself years ago to a task which was novel to
great extent, was inevitably ignorant of much
that he knows to-day. The contract for the
lower Broadway section of the subway imposed
requirements which have spared the city large
part of the loss and trouble which had been
caused elsewhere, and it may be safe to look for
still further improvement of methods in future
operations. If Mr.. Parsons We're TO remain in
charge, the public would expect much from his
ingenuity, good sense and regard for its rights,
and it will not be contented with worse service
from his successor than he would have rem
dered. In changing the line under Park-ave.
he did not fOresee the unfortunate results which
followed, but that appears TO have been the
only serious error in an engineering work fun
of complications and embarrassments.
Mr.. Parsons has served the city with skill and
fidelity in connection with undertaking Of
vital Importance to its welfare and it is a pleas
ure TO feel that the performance of his duty has
brought him professional distinction. We hope
that his counsel will still he available and his
future career prosperous.

FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENTS

In The Engineering Magazine" for Deem
or F. ". Haskell advances opinions which de-
serve the consideration of American railway
managers. He discusses the one weak point in
the operation of roads in this country, The kill
ing of a large number of passengers while in
transit. Numerous attempts have been made
TO show that travel is as safe in the United
States in Europe, but the facts do not bear
out that supposition. Hence an inquiry into
the causes Of the excessive mortality here is not
only legitimate but expedieut
At the outset Mr.. Haskell notices a peculiar
anomaly. He says that the worst accidents
happen the roads which have the best equip
ment for preventing them, and where the rules
for running trains are practically perfect His
explanation Of the circumstance is that engi-
neers often run by block signals knowingly
trusting to luck to escape harm. From expert
ence they learn that the train whose presence
in the block ahead is indicated by the signal will
probably be out of the way before the following
one can overtake 1t. Having a realizing sense
of the need of keeping on time. they take
chances. 1t is further asserted that the higher
othcials of the railway companies familiar
With the practice and do not discourage it stern
ly. Mr. Haskell declares that a violation of the
! rules is not always punished, and that thus a
certain decentralization among railway employees
results. The chief responsibility therefore. is
! placed on the men higher up
Automatic apparatus which will stop train
! that is run past block signal set at danger
has been invented Its efficiency has already
! been proved in the New York subway If It were
| Installed on the steam roads Of the country il
would probably reduce the number Of fatal acct
dents Still, the introduction of the system
would doubtless have other consequences also.
| The speed of trains would be lowered so often
that there would be increased difficulty in con
/ forming TO schedule time. The Inconvenience to
passengers, especially To those DESTROYS of max
| ing connections with other roads, would prove
considerable and would provoke much grllm-
/ bling. The railway superintendent is confronted
with a serious problem. He has TO recognize on
the one hand, the possible dissatisfaction of the
patrons of his line, and, on the other the risk
attendant upon the of new means to please
| them. Were engineers disciplined more strict
~, or were the power to disregard q signal taken
away by the adoption Of automatic mechanism
an cutlery might be heard over the dilatOriness
OF the trains. There two sides to this ones
ton. Even If Mr.. Haskell is correct in his belief
regarding the administration of American rail-
ways, 1t will be seen that there may be an ex-
cuse for the fault imputed thereto.
