OPPOSE REMOVAL
OF THE FLAGNEN
Residents Along Pacific Electric
Long Beach Line Object to
Electric Bell System
CONSTANT NOISE is FEARED
Children Who Have to Cross the
Tracks Are in Constant Dan
ger, Say Citizens

Directing to the replacing of flagmen
at street railway crossings with cleo
trio bells, the Sixth Ward Central I'm
provement association has circulated
a petition containing a request to the
city council to insist on flagmen
watching the crossings of the Long
Beach line from Ninth street to Long
Beach avenue.
The electric bells are objected to
because they will be ringing nearly all
the time, as the service on this line IS
about one car every three minutes
This continual ringing, the petition
sets forth, will be a great annoyance
Then. again, it is claimed that the
bells will not be ample protection to
the smaller children going to school,
as the cars from Ninth street to Slau-
son avenue, it is alleged, travel at
high speed.

reason we should like to have them

Carlson showed a petition, which ne
had circulated, showing 1876 signers.
President N. L. Blabon of the associa-
tion and Sperry Baker, secretary of the
organization, are two Of the CHER
boosters of the project.
It is expected by them that when the
petition Is presented to the city council
next Tuesday more than 200 signatures
will be attached to the petition.

RUNAWAY FREIGHT CARS
SHAKE UP PASSENGERS
Train Breaks in Two and Part
Crashes Into Following Engine

RENO, New, Sept. S.-Four freight
cars were derailed. the track torn up
for a considerable distance and the
passengers on the second section OF
train No. we're badly shaken today
at Soda Springs, a small station just
west of Summit on the Southern Pa
cific line, when a string of runaway
freight cars bumped into the passen-
ger train as the latter was climbing
the grade. Reports are to the effect
that no one was injured, but details
are lacking.
1t appears from the official report
that a freight train climbing the grade
ahead of No. broke in two The emer-
gency brakes failed to work and the
cars were carried down the grade by
gravity. Second No. 6 was only snort
distance behind and the runaway cars
had gained but little speed. The en-
gineer of No. saw the runaway cars
and reversed the engine.
He probably prevented disastrous
wreck.
Wrecking crews were dispatched
from Roseville and Sparks. Traffic was
delayed for some hours.

Excepting steel. he said, no other
industry in this country was 50 large
" dependent upon the railroads for
it's prosperity as was the lumber bust
ness. Mr. Fosburg pOinte,- to the
fact that the yellow pine outputs
have averaged 80 per cent less than
their small capital with tie same
ratio of decrease probably applicable
to every lumber producing section OF
the country.

ments by the mills tOtaling in 1909
