COOPERATION.
Rssig IL T.
IN NECESSARY
RAILWAYS AND WATERWAYS
SHOULD WORK TOGETHER TO
INSURE EFFICIENT USE OF
THE INLAND WATER COURSE.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 49,
Cooperation between railways and
waterways seems absolutely neces-
sary to insure reasonable and eff.
ficient use of the inland water-course
of this country.
This conclusion is reached in the
report of Herbert Knox Smith, Com
missioner of Corporations, in Part
IL of his discussion of the subject
of Transportation by Water which the
bureau has been investigating for
many months. The second part OF
the report was transmitted to Pres
ident Taft today. 1t deals with
traffic by water, and portions of il
are particularly suggestive and
significant. .sa
1t is pointed out by Commissioner
Smith that lit is public evil that
the entire transportation system OF
the United States should be, as now,
at odds with itself through destruc.
tive competition, while the trans
portaton needs of the public suffer-"
Traffic in ITSELF the report con-
tinues, is necessity for. the proper
development of a waterway. State
and Federal work must be supple
mented by private initiative, especial
ly in terminals and equipment, and
private initiative will come in only
when there is, reasonable chance OF
enough traffic to make it profitable
One of the great questions, there
fore, is the question of how to secure
for the inland rivers and canals a
reasonable share of the country s
traffic
In the body of the report Com
missioner Smith points out the pre-
dominance of bulk traffic by water
and the reasons therefore. Then he
outlines the practical results to be
obtained from thorough system OF
waterways. Then entire Transports
tion system of the country is divided

CYCLE RACE
FIRE BREAKS OUT AND BENzINE
ExPIODES IN A BURST OF
FLAME--FOUR KILLED AND
MANY INJURED.

BERLIN. July 19.-Four persons
were killed, more than twenty sew
erely injured and a dozen slightly
injured as the result of the explosion
of motor cycle and fire which fol-
lowed it during cycle race at the
Old Botanic Gardens today.
Thousands of spectators had gath
cred around the track. The first race
was over and the second, an endur-
ance race, was on, some of the best
known cyclists, including Stellbrink
Cotnent, Kyser and Stoll participat-
ing. After a few laps the tire OF
a pacemaker's motor cycle burst and
the rider lost control. The benzine
exploded in burst of flame and the
machine leaped into the air and hurl-
ed itself against the barrier, which
broke ddwn.
The rider was thrown off and fell
against other competitors, who we're
pitched to the track, several being
severely injured. So terrific was the
speed of the cycle that it continued
on its course after the explosion,
crashing into the public stand, hurl-
ing spectators right and left and
setting on fire several women's sum
mer dresses.
Two women were instantly killed
and their bodies saturated with fam
ing benzine were burned to cinders
The wooden stand caught fire and the
flames flashed in the faces of bystand-
ers, who, with clothing ablaze, rush
ed about shrieking with pain and
fear until cool headed onlookers
threw them to the ground and
smothered the flames.
A panic ensued in which a great
number of persons, including child
ren, were badly trampled. Two OF
the injured men died later and the
hospital reported several in hope
less condition.

into three great classes

into three great classes -
1. Rail-
2. Deep water, that is coast wise
and Great Lakes.
3. Rivers and canals.
An enormous increase has been
shown in the rail traffic. On the
other hand, the river and canal
traffic shows a marked decrease. Dis
cussing this situation, Commissioner
Smith in his report says:
''The great mass of the coast and
Great Lakes traffic is bulk. The
enormous development of the Great
Lakes business is largely due to the
vast ore and grain trade moving
eastward and the coal trade moving
westward. About 45,00O,000 tons
of ore were transported in 1907
eastward, and about 100000 tons
of coal were moved westward in
1906. These great freights, being
all bulk and of uniform character,
received and delivered at a few CEN
trail ports, have produced there a
very highly organized system of
transportation and terminals, and
consequently low transportation cost.
