RAILWAY ACCIDENTS.

DISCUSSING Railway Accidents in
- the United States and Europe and
Prevention Of Railway Accidents Sla-
son Thompson OF Chicago finds that
the railway employees take too many
chances and that they are not so much
to blame Tor taking them as their SUI
periors are for permitting them to take
chances. The demand for better train
service. for faster train schedules. is
incessant and insistent. Employees are
compelled 20 disregard regulations or
they would often be dismissed for ina
biIity To keep their trains ON tine.
Dir. Thompson believes the best phys
icaI method of preventing railroad ac-
with special reference to cell
listens, IS go increase the double track
Mileage. Next To this he places the
beck system. And he adds: "But no
physical or mechanical continuance can
protect srch system of transportation
az the american people demand from
the direful effects of human negligence
and Incompetence. Discipline carried
10 the point where obedience to sig
nails is involuntary must eventually be
come the reliance Of the American rail-
way system. When il becomes
as unheard Of for an Official to pass
over a breach OF discipline as for an
engineer to pass a danger signal, the
rational safety Of American railway
traffic viii be assured"
In spite Of the great number OF ter
Tible railway accidents the country has
experienced during the last four OF five
Mr.. Thompson gets cousidera-
bic comfort out Of a comparison be-
tween English and American railways.
In 1901 not a single passenger was
killed on n British railway, a fact that
has been widely commented on and
almost invariably comparison dis
CTeditabIe to American railways has
been Instituted Mr.. thompson shows
some figures that put the matter in
different light.
He takes eleven American railways
with a mileage of nearly ZOO miles
greater than that of all the British
roads combined. On these American
railways in 1903 not a single passenger
was killed. Only fifteen persons other
than employees lost their lives. They
were trsspasSeTs. The total number
killed at crossings and-in similar ways
was $50 and 81 employees were killed.
On the English roads in 1901. I35 tres
nassers, 511 employees and 90 others
were killed.

RocKEFELLER's GIFTS.

\ Ii NEBRASKA is in a state Of
L turmoil over the question as to
whether or not the University Of Ne
braska should accept a handsome do
nation from John D. Rockefeller. The
opposition telegraphed Miss Ida NJ
TarbeH. who has. become famous for
her series OF articles on the Standard
Oil monopoly and its methods; for an
opinion. Mss Tarbelrs reply was SEN
sible and TO the point. She said, in
part:
II the acceptance Of q gift from John
d. Rockefeller brings with It tacit rec
ignition OF the commercial principles
which he has employed with more con-
sDicuOus success than any other man
in the country-if it closes the mouth Of
any man in Nebraska to the corruptinE
influence OF these principles, no greater
calamity can befall the University of
Nebraska than TO accept his money.
Human experience seems to show that
the receiver Of a gift becomes, sooner
Or later, the apologist Of the donor ana
his methods. When there is a posi-
bility OF such a result Jealous regard
for the moral atmosphere Of the fnsti-
tuition makes the refusal of the gift
an imperative duty
The outcome of the Nebraska con-
troversy is still in doubt. The gift
may be accepted and it may not. And
there is plenty OF room for argument
ourboth sides Of the question. II we all
stopped to investigate the pedigree of
every dollar we receive and rejected
every one that comes to US from soiled
hands, a lot Of merey would go out OF
circulation. IN the Rockefeller case the
question is: Win the good that can
be done with his money be OF enough
value 60 couutarOalance the harm the
acceptance Of it might do?
Mr. Rockefeller does not lack oDpOr-
tunities TO dispose Of his wealth. II he
cannot bestow il in one place lie can
bestow 1t in another. The harm his
money does depends very largely on the
character Of the man or the institu-
ton receiving It. 1t can be used wisely
or unwisely, as the recipient wills. An
other point. If John D. Rockefeller
should divide his property by viii
among various educational institutions
would it De wrong for them to accept il
after his death2
II not. why? Would not acceptance
in such case imply ar endorsement OF
the methods By which the money was
acquired2 But would it not be better
to take the money ana put it to good
uses than risk the possibility Of its di-
version into harmful channels
