year the Metropolitan railroad operated
100000 miles on the New York streets
and carried 542,000,000 passengers. In
moving through crowded districts with
overloaded cars it is inevitable that
mishaps should occur, but of the vast

and some of these were employees.
Thirty-seven were seriously injured.
Yet there were many slight injuries,
and these resulted in 1878 suits, only
