RAILRoADINe VS.. HLooDsHED.

The recent epidemic of serious rail-
road wrecks, and the wide publication
of their casualty statistics. have had
tendency. in the opiuion of some, to
discredit the whole railroad fraternity
in the public regard. But President
Wilcox. of the Delaware g. Hudson,
objects to having his system cast ha-
silly into the category of those careless
of human life. He gives the figures
to prove that, whatever the condition
on other lines, on his road at least the
| greatest of care is taken to protect
passengers, and that remarkable sue
cess results. The New York Times
cites these figures. and from them
draws lesson for those at the head of
other railroads. We read:
In IL years. he says, the DelewaIe
q Hudson has carried rs, 200, 900 pas
sengers, with only three fatalities, ell
in one accident and that an accident
caused by an engineer who ran by a
properly set signal. On the Susque-
hanna division of the road there has
not been passenger fatality in 80
years.
"These, now, are records to be proud
of, and it is. indeed. doubtful, as Pres
ident Wilcox says, if they are surpas-
sed, or even equaled by the much
praised railways of Europe. Informa-
tion of this sort, however. only excites
in us an eagerness for other reports of
the same kind-for reports. that is,
from individual roads. in order that
the public may know just where it is
that the horrible slaughter that goes
on in the country is taking place. We
get the totals every year from the var
ious railway commissions, but until
we get the details they are not any
thing like as useful as they might be.
If every road in the country were
compelled to report at the end of each
year, just how many passengers and
employees it had killed and injured,
they would be forced into new and
highly beneficial forri of competition.
Fossil bly,, President Wilcox had some
such thing in mind when he gave out
his own fgures-and possibly they
will not cause any instant or large in
crease of his popularity among the
other railway presidents. Literary

There was fire about $50 last
night at the home of DR.. e. b. Fray
ser, north of the Frisco tracks. The
fire department responded promptly
and extinguished the blaze before it
did much damage. The fire caught
from an electric iron that Mrs. Fray
ser had been trying to get hot. Find
ing that the wire had been cut by the
carpenters she left the switch open
and set the iron on the refrigerator.
About 5 o'clock in the evening Mr..
Lahman tai the wire repaired, with
the above result. DR.. Frayser says the
fire department. made a perfect run
having reached his place In four min
utes after the alarm was turned in,
notwithstanding the fact that the
wagon had to slow up Ia crossing the
railroad, owing to the regular crossing
being blocked. He says about $50 Will

Would Screw the Lid Down on Wall

Guthrie, Nov. 6-Answering a que

financial situation, Governor Eject
Haskell wired yesterday:
"If my advice Is worth anJ thing it
would be TO declare ninety day holi-
day on the Stock Exchange, thus, sus
pending the necessity Of using all the
money IN the country for Wall Street
purposes With the cash at hand to
market the crops, the wealth of the
country would be so increased as to
put the country at ease and even
carry the gamblers through another
period Of reckless financeering.
"The financial plan of our govern
ment cannot be changed In day, nor
hurried to meet the demands of the
moment. The next congress certain
ly should make amends for the neg
lect of the past by adopting a inan-
cal system equal to the needs OF the
country and free from any spirit Of
favoritism to any class or dominate on
OF any special interest.
