Big Percentage of Them Found to
Have Latent Flaws.

Chicago, April 24.-Bad steel rails are
causing many of the disastrous wrecks
on American railroads according to
statement made yesterday by some OF
the most prominent operating officials
in the United States who are in Chi
cago attending the spring meeting OF
the American Railway association. Aid
ed by chemical experts and metalur-
gists a committee composed of operat-
ing officials have been making an inves-
tigatfon of this matter and have come
to the conclusion that an exceedingly
dangerous percentage of the steel rails
manufactured there have the latent
flaw which causes them to snap and
break under the impact of a fast train
Among the reports which have been
prepared for presentation to the general
meeting of the association is by the
committee on standard rail and wheels
sections.
This report wills recommend that
committee appointed to take the ques-
ton of better steel rails with the Amer
lean manufacturers in an effort to inn
