TRAIN CREWS TRAPPED.


Chicago, Jan, s.--The Tribune has the
following,
Without noticing that the light in
the semaphore above a suburban sta.
ton of railroad entering Chicago was
not burning. eight train crews have
passed the danger signal while a high
Official secretly marked down the num-
lers of the trains. Eight conductors,
eight firemen, and eight engineers are
now on an enforced vacation of 60 days.
The remarkable test was suggested
by the wreck that occurred on the
Pere Marquette railroad near Grand
Rapids, Mich, on Dec. &C. and by a de.
sire of the company to throw the ut
most safety precautions about its pat
ronS.
According TO the rules OF the com.
pany a light that is not burning has
the same significance that a red light,
