Dangers Of the "Permissive" Block on
Railways Revealed.

Albany, N, II, Feb. 26.--In a letter
sent out last night BY the state railroad
commission, o recommendation il made
70 all managers Of steam railroads in
the state that they adopt Immediately
q block system that win prevent more
than one train being in block at the
same time. SAYS the board
"The method now used on very many
roads of spacing trains or the permis-
sive block system, which allows more
than one train in block at time,
under cautionary orders, IL not shown
to be effective. a heavy train may make
slow progress; lighter one, even ii held
five or ten minutes at a telegraph sta.
ton, may overtake the leading train and
collide with it. Also in the permissive
block system a train enters the block
and the men are too apt to consider
that they are protected and do not flag
promptly, Also another train entering
the block under eautionary orders is too
liable to assume that the first train must
be out OF the way by that time and does
not proceed rs cautiously as it should,
and collisions result. We are aware
that at terminals, stations and large
yards it will in some cases be necessary
to permit more than one train at time
in such blocks; but those blocks should
be made as short as they can consist.

erning movements in them be made
