rHE LLL.NTEE[ TR4LN

The goal Of safety in railway travel Is
not very far off. Thousands Of lives
have been sacrificed to the long standing
habit Of Transporting passengers in wood
en- ears. which in case Of collision
would telescope. split up and quickly
take fire. Inertia and false ideas of
economy still keep wooden ears in use
on many railroads. i'm spite of the fact
that the practicability Of using only
metal cars. uncollapsible and unburna-
bic. has been fully demonstrated. But
the annual roll of avoidablc killings and
maimings is getting shorter: for there is
no longer 81 good excuse for Il railroads
taking chances with the old style con-
struction when the immense superiority
of the new is established to the satisfac-
ton of the travelling public.
An all-steel and concrete car train on
the Pennsylvania Railroad jumped the
tracks near Monmouth Junction, y. j..
on Friday. while running at the rate of
fifty miles an hour, and, instead of the
familiar spectacle Of wreckage and suf-
fering, not a single passenger was even
badly shaken up The cars stood every
test perfectly. the rails yielding first to
the enormous pressure and being twisted
