People of the United States Face
Peril of Railway Disasters.

Peril of Railway Disasters.
The people Of the United States have
a new peril" to try their nerves and
wrench their hearts. 1t is peril of the
new twentieth century-the peril of rail
road travel.
Approximately 800 passengers have
been killed in the last few months in the
most appalling series of railroad acct
dents the country, it is charged, has ever
known, brought about by the desperate
Efforts of the railroad companies to make
more money. 1t has not been a question
of signals and switches and regulations:
it has been question of hurrying trains
through-the flyer, the fast freight-of
getting from one end of the line to the
other, so that they can be started back
again. Railroad employees have admitted
on the stand that they disregarded signals
that they had to- to make schedules.
Twenty years ago persons travelled on
railroad trains with comparative safety.
There were some accidents, but few men
dreaded a trip by rail. Even ten years
ago the peril was not great. In 1897 only
222 passengers were killed. But look at
TIE last lOuE DuOHlllS ~ IOIdl VI wv
human beings, passengers on trains in
the United States, were torn and man
gled, scalded and burned to death in
railroad wrecks-225 per cent more
deaths in four months than in the whole
of 1897.
The slaughter of the toll of 1907 began
with terrible mortality. The railroads
are overworked, overcrowded and over
capitalized. Earnings that should be de-
voted to improving and replenishing the
equipment and paying for better class Of
labor are diverted to dividends to keep
up the value of watered stock.
The accompanying table gives the worst
of the recent railroad disasters. There
were many more the country over where
the casualties were one, two, or three.
