CLEANLINESS OF CARS.
MANAGER FTTzGERALo IL A STICK
IN THss PoINT.
Attention Given BY the RaItemore q
OhiO omciais and employees
to the Passenger service.

There is nothing that contributes
more to the comfort and pleasure of
railroad travel than cleanliness and to
know that care and attention is given
TO ventilation and in providing the
best sanitary conditions possible. In
TINS respect. Mr.. Thomas Fitzgerald,
general manager of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad, is a connoisseur. Just
as we'll as he knows that the track is
properly laid, trains are being run as
they should and the men on the line
are doing good and faithful work, so
does he know the relationship of
cleanliness to ae requirements of ma
ture in the support of good health.
The instructions. therefore. from Mr..
Fitzgerald to the men over the system
are to keep the cars and buildings
clean and disinfected. and he sees 70
it that this is done.
Passenger cars are renovated at the
end of each trip and the floors. cnspi.
dovs, etc, cleaned with a specially
prepared disinfectant furnished BY
the railroad company. A large can
filled with the compound is carried on
every train, having a porter, for use
at any time that occasion requires.
The same attention is given TO the
keeping of passenger stations clean
aud the ali purified.
The disinfection of cars and stations
is under the supervision of the medi.
cal examiner of the relief department.
When it is known that anyone on a
tram is seriously i'll with consump-
tion, ~diphtheria. or any other conta-
gious or infectious disease, the con
ductor of the train is instructed 10
notify the division superintendent, by
wire, so that the car can be promptly
