DANGERS IN RAILROADING.

When one reads the report Of the
United States Interstate Commerce
Commission and finds that for the year
ending June 80, 1906, only one passen-
ger was killed for every 2,227, 041 car
ried, one is encouraged to believe that
railway travelling should not cause one
to be especially nervous. On the other
hand when it is stated that one passen-
ger is injured out of every ID, 276 car
ried, the figures are not so pleasant to
consider. OF course it is enheartening
to know that when one is in a wreck he
still has about 80 chances to one of
surviving but when the train is tum-
bling down an embankmcnt, perhaps
the average man does not think about
that.
The horrifying figures Of this report
are those Of deaths and injuries to rail
way employees. The number of train
men, the term including all members
of train ere vs., was 2,310 killed and
81, 989 injured; Of. switchmen, crossing
tenders, etc., lat were killed and 1,026.
injured.
Of all other employees, l,472 were
killed and DO, 686 were wounded. The
total number of persons, including 359
passengers, on the railway of the
United States from June, 80, 1905 to
June, 80, 1906 was 10, 618 while the
number injured was 97'706. So many
soldiers perhaps were never killed and
wounded in a single battle.
One years statistics will not show
the average dangers of railway travel.
In the year preceding that of the re-
port, one passenger was killed for
every, 1875, 756 carried a record much
worse than that of 1905-96. But in the
year 1895 only passenger was killed for
every 1884, 1872 carried and only one
was injured for every 2I3, 651 carried.
Hence it appears that travelling was
safer that year than it is now, that
at least is what the figures Indicate.
OF course the explanation is that one
or two or more uncommonly bad acct.
dents, killing or injuring many people,
may happen in the same year, greatly
affect in the proportions of casualties
to numbers carried.
The truth that stand out most con.
spicuous from these figures is thai
"~roinoading" is a dangerous calling
There are other kinds Of work that arr
equally dangerous but one may be
lawyer or an editor, taking all the
chances of being shot or scalped by
some ~disgruntled person, and be more
likely to escape than if he should make
his living by running on the road.
Only cool, brave and sober men O.
strong character are fit to operate rail
road trains and take care of the tracks
and switches. They ought to be wei
paid. Some of them arc we'll paid.
