We have received the report of the
public service commission of the first
district of the state of New York,
which contains some Interesting facts.
The number of accidents In street and
steam railroads within the city OF
New York was 56.4S1 in 1908. while
in 1909 the number was reduced to
526is. The number of persons killed
decreased from 44i to 1876, which is an
encouraging decrease. The service
rendered by the transportation com
panies Is now better than ever before
judged in proportion to the physical
conditions and the volume of travel.
This is largely due TO the orders OF
the commission. The minimum OF
service Is continued a much longer Pc
Rod than heretofore. and the rush
train service has been increased. The
matter of adequate service Is serious
problem; for during each twenty-four
! hours, passengers, equal in number TO
about So per cent of the population
must be carried. Fully one-thIrd OF
all the passengers travelling In one
/ direction during the day are carried In
two hours out of the twenty-four.--
