Control of Service.

Pittsburg, April 16.-Public control of
the Pittsburg street car service is the
remedy advocated by Bion ]. Arnold. a
famous engineer of Chicago. who has
been employed by this city to examine the
Pittsburg transportation problem and
report upon the best method of over
coming the existing difficulties. After a
long investigation he has reported 10
Mayor Magee and report is now be-

Its Importance to all cities having TO
is enhanced by the fact that President
Theodore n. Vail. of the big telephone
and telegraph interests. advocates in his
annual report somewhat similar public
control of telephone and telegraph COM
panies and II is considered here a big step
forward toward the proper control and
regulation, by the public, of the street
car systems of big cities.
Engineer Arnold says in his report:
Il have outlined a definite transit policy
which will in my opinion tend toward
securing a comprehensive transportation
system for the entire district. This policy
starts with concessions on the part OF
both the city and the company, includes
cooperation in working out further pro-
blems, and ends with ultimate complete
public control Of the entire transit situa-
ton
The one comprehensive remedy" he
saws. (which is pointed out in nearly
every chapter of the report is public con-

WORKMEN BURNED
BY MOLTEN METAL
One Dead, Seven Dying: in
Deadly Steel Shower.

Philadelphia. April 15.-Bursting in mid
air at the Midvale Steel Works at .. m.
to-day a mold containing tons of molten
steel showered down upon workmen, kill
ing James Tobin, a workman, instantly
and SO terribly burning and scaldins
seven others that the doctors at the Ger
mantown Hospital hold out no hope for
the recovery of any of them. Twenty
others were slightly burned
The mold was being carried through
the air on a crane. When near the group
of workmen il suddenly burst with a
terrific report into thousands of pieces Of
almost molten steel
AS soon as the other workmen recov-
cred from the shock they ran to the
assistance of the PROSTATE men, who,
with the exception of Tobin, were suffer-
ing intense agony. The police of the
Germantown station and the Germantown
Hospital were notified by telephone. and
patrols and ambulances were hurried to
the scene. An automobile carried three
of the men to the hospital, the ambu-
lance carried two others. and when the
patrol arrived a platform was hastily
improvised in ii for the other two. All
three vehicles raced to the hospital at
top speed. Everything was done to re-
lieve their sufferings, but the doctors
are confident that the seven men are be-
yond aid.
So terribly burned were they that when
the doctors attempted to pick out the
metal that stuck to their bodies pieces
of flesh came with it.
