Washington, Sept. 2.-Responsibility
for the accident on the Chicago, Bur-

Springs, Ill, July IA, by which ii pas
sengers and two employees were killed
and 20 passengers and two employees
injured, was placed by the Interstate
Commerce commission today upon

Inspector L. w. Belnap's report to the
commission, "it lies wholly within the
power of the railroad nag vir-
tually to put an end to from rs to 80
per CEN OF these narrowing disasters"
Mr.. Belnap says the accident, which
was a real end collision, might have
been prevented had the flagman eXer-
cised proper precautions in warning
the on-coming train. 1t is pointed out
that Woodwork did not give warning
at a sufficient distance to enable tho
engineer to stop, INC gave merely g
caution signal instead of a signal tc
stop.
"A contributing cause of the acct
dent reports Inspector Belnap, "waa
the failure Of Engineman Rrownson
properly to control the speed of his
train and to obey the indications Of
fixed signals.
This investigation also disclosed the
fact that it was not an oc-
currence for trains to run past sig

NEEDLESS, SAYS JUDGE

Milwaukee, Wis, Sept. "A plea for

what is known as the language of the

The homicides should be tried imme-
diately after the crime is committed,
was the argument of Judge s.. H. Rus
sell, of Oklahoma, speaking on the
question Of procedure in criminal cases.
If Judge Russell had the dictation of
how such trials should be run he would
do away with "extenuating circum-

storms" "dementia Americana" or any
of the other popular excuses for she'd
