railways Of America, Canada and Mex
leo included.
In the last five years, the number Of
English railway; employees killed in
train accidents in the United Kingdom
has averaged seven per year. In the
United States, the number in this
same period, has averaged between
seven and eight hundred This is the
difference between English and Ameri-
can practice.
In 1895 our railways killed ITO pas
sengerS; 1S1 the year following
In 1905 they killed SGT. The number
Of passengers injured rose from 2,375
to 10,457. Consider that the passen-
ger mileage in these ten years increas-
ed SO per cent (though the actual num-
Der of passengers increased only 46
per cent?, while the number of per-
sons killed rose ZIG per cent, and the
total number killed and injured 332
per cent.
Ten years ago the number Of killed
and wounded per million passenger
miles was 20. In 1905 it was .46.
From 1895 to 1905 the number of
railway employees has not quite dou-
bled, while the number of killed and
injured has risen from 27,5O7 to 70,194.
That is to say, the number of en-
ployes killed or injured each year rose
from thirty-five per thousand to fifty
per thousand, an increase of nearly so
per cent.
Dividends Climbing.
While the proportion Of fatalities
and injuries to the business done has
doubled, dividends have been climb
ing at much higher rate. Taking the
whole country, including all the worth
less stocks, the average dividend in
1895 was 1.5 per cent; in 1905, three
per cent.
There are dozens of roads in the
country that are now earning fifteen
per cent or more on their stock. Some
roads, like the Lake Shore, earn near
er twenty-five per cent; the Lackawan-
ma, thirty or forty per cent. These
facts are stated in refutation of the
idea, too frequently advanced, that
American rates are so low that rail-
ways cannot afford to introduce safety
appliances and safer methods of rum
ming.
1t seems to be generally agreed that
the block signal is an adequate neces-
sity.
In England under the law, every
mile of passenger track on roads oper-
ating more than a single engine is COW
cred with block signals. That law has
been on the statute books for seven

teen years. In contrast with this, con-
slider the fact as regards the United
States as a whole:
In this country not one-quarter OF
the total mileage Is covered by any
block signal system at all.
The Railway Age shows that out
of about 100000 miles of main track,
only $4,000 miles are protected, and OF
this, 41,227 miles, or nearly four-ffths,
have simply the primitive manual tele-
graph block.
OF the modern automatic block, or
what is known as the controlled man.
ual block, there are only about 11,0OO
miles.
The expense is not great. Accord
ing to the statements furnished me
by the signal companies, the average
cost of the most approved automatic
block is from $500 to $1,500 per mile
of single track. This year the gross
income of American railways will
probably exceed two and one-half bill
lions. Three per cent Of the entire
sum (or one-tenth of the net earnings
over and above operating expenses)
would foot the bill for complete block
signaling.
Probably it would be no overstate-
ment to say that complete block sig
mailing, such as obtains in England,
would wipe out at least three-quarters
of all collisions and fatalities result
ing thereform.
Men Overworked.
But it would be idle to suppose that
the mere presence Of block apparatus
will do it ALL That is clear enough
from further results obtained by the
Railway Ages analysis. 1t shows that
of the 448 collisions under view, very
nearly three-quarters were due to
negligence of trainmen and engine
men," Negligence of dispatchers and
signal operators" accounted for 107
more. In other words, ninety-four per
cent Of all collisions was due to disre-
gard Of orders, rules, or signals.
The men are Overworked; the hui
man machine cannot stand from four
teen to sixteen hours day, and so
general has become the practice of
working the men beyond their capac-
ity that as write bill is before con-
gress, and has passed the senate, pro-
hibiting the employment of men be-
yond sixteen hours without adequate
rest.
Has mechanical ingenuity in the
block signals and the interlocking de-
vices that are now generally being in
troduced, reached it's limit in the pre-
vention of disaster? I believe 1t has

an average Of about 1000 miles of
main track for each. The Chicago st.
Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha road
has 1,700 miles; that is, it's line would
stretch from New York, through Oma-
ha, into the middle of Nebraska. It's
gross earnings last year were $7,645
per mile, little above the average
for the country. 1t carried 100000
passengers total distance of 145, ,000-
600 passenger miles. In ten years the
business Of the company has had a
very steady, but not extraordinary,
increase.
In these ten years this road has
never killed a passenger in an acci-
dent.
This record, I believe, to be due al
most entirely to Col. H. G. Hope, SUI
perintendent of telegraphs, and his
methods.
l have learned of at least one other
road that, up to a few months ago,
held similar record. This is the Del
aware & Hudson. In ten years it car
ried some 6O,O00,0O0 passengers
eleven thousand million passenger
miles.
Still more remarkable is the tabula-
tiOn sent me since the above was
penned, by Mr.. Slason Thompson, of
the General (Railway) Managers AS
sociation, of Chicago, for the fiscal
year 1906. This, translated, is what
his figures mean:
Two hundred and seventy-nine
American roads, covering more than
half the total track mileage, carrying
more than half the passenger mileage.
Number of passengers killed in train
accidents-None.
All other roads less than half the
track mileage, less than half the pas
senger mileage. Number of passen-
gers killed-182.
Bad Management on Half.
These figures can have but one
meaning. This is, that in 1906 on one
half the mileage of the country there
was good management, care, respect
for human life. On the other half
there was not.
There was one year, 1901, when not
a single passenger was killed by train
accidents on all the railways in the
United Kingdom of Great Britain and
Ireland. This was on a total of $4,000
miles, the larger part of which was dou-
bic track, and when 1,172,O0O,O00 sin
gle ticket passengers were carried, to
say nothing of nearly two million sea.

LOST ROY YOUNG
NOT YET FOUND.
DISAPPEARED FRIDAY NOON
FROM HIS HoME.-LAsT SEEN
ALONG RAILROAD TRACKS
PARENTS DISTRACTED
Offer Reward for Any information
Leading to His Recovery Lad had
Never Been Away from Home BE-
fore - Probably Left on Train

No trace of Roy Young, the fourteen
year old son Of Mr.. and Mrs. L. b.
Young of 22S South Davis street who
80 strangely disappeared last Friday
noon from his home, has not been
found Further Investigation reveals
that from mis- home the lad went to
Cenlpbell's grocery store where he
purchased quantity and boiled ham
and five cents worth of crackers. He
then started for the north side, over
taking Red Moore, a teamster near
F1etcher's lumber yard and rode with
him as far as the freight house.
He left the wagon at the freight
house and when last seen by Moore
was walking up and down the track.
It has also been reported that he was
seen at Poling's pasture swimming and
his clothes found there by his father,
tnis report and other similar ones
have proved to be erroneous. His par
ents think that as he was seen along
the railroad he has left the city In that
manner.
Roy is said to be a little favorite
WITH his playmates and had a jovial
and kindly manner toward all. He had
been away from his home but one
night In his life and this makes 1t
seem so strange to his parents that he
should stay away so long.
The parents are distracted at the
loss of their boy and any Information
as to his location or any clue to his
whereabouts will be rewarded by the
grief striker father and mother.
