Fatalities to Trespassers
on American Railroads

The number of lives lost in wars to-
day, with fighting continually going on
in some corner of the world, is nothing
as compared with the annual record OF
fatalities due to trespassing on Amer
lean railroads. Ignorance or careless
ness on the part of the trespasser is
responsible for most of this. The rail-
roads are bending every effort to cut
down the awful toll of death by posting
signs and maintaining police patrol,
but they will never be completely sue
cessful without the cooperation OF the
general public.
Every denselv populated industrial
center near railroad is death center
The working classes in crowded dis
tricts, and tramps, furnish the majority
of victims, Railroads say people must
be taught to have more respect for
their lives and safety.
With education of this kind in view,
the Pennsylvania Railroad is prepar-
ing Pamphlets in eight or nine langud-
pes. These will be distributed in
schools with instructions to the pupils
to take them into their homes. The
Board of Education of the State OF
Pennsylvania has promised its aid. The
assistance of olergymen has been solic-
tied, and from hundreds of pulpits the
danger of trespassing has been preach
ed. From the good roads trains run
through rural districts, and in the farm
ers' oranges the warning has been
sounded.

AS result of the education move
ment and vigorous campaign against
tramps, the number of persons killed
while trespassing on the Pennsylvania
Railroads property in violation Of the
law. has been gradually reduced from
SS7 in 1905 to 5S5 in l910. and the mum =
Der of injured has fallen from 704 to
$50 in the same time. TO put the. c
figures IN another way; in l905 the
railroad was killing trespassers at the
rate of three day for five months of
the year,and two a day for the remain
ing seven months, while in 1e10 the
number sacrificed had decreased to two
a day for seven months and one a day
for the other FIVE. Railroads are per-
haps the greatest sufferers from the
tramp evil, and they are willing to do
all in their power to stamp 1t out, but
this cannot be accomplished until the
citizen realizes the seriousness of the
matter and takes his part in the cam
paign.
Until this country follows the lead
of Europe in the matter of legislation
to check vagrancy there can be 70
satisfactory cure for the evil, but if
the small communities would punish
offenders. instead of passing them
along, 1t would be greatly ameliorated.
BY doing this, and by aiding sthe rail
roads in their campaign to educate the
public against trespassing, more loss OF
life will be averted than by establish
ing world peace.
