Not a Passenger Killed on Rock
Island District in 1911.
Topeka Headquarters Control a
Clear Record for Year.
TERRITORY OVER 1000 MILES
cry Little of This Mileage Has
Double Track Protection.
Other Items of General Interest
in Traffic World.

Not a passenger was killed on the
second district of the Rock Island
Lines in the year 1911. The second
district of the road, with headquar-
Travelled pieces of track in the coun-
try owing to the fact that it is all
practically single tracked. The mile
age of this district is ALTO.
This is an exceptionally good record
for the year 1911, which seems to
have been a bad year for western
railroads. The Rock Island Lines as
a whole have had two bad wrecks to
mar their 1911 record. but at that
their list of fatalities will fall below
the list on many roads in the anne
territory.
Second district officers of the road
with headquarters in Topeka are more
than pleased with their showing for
the year 1911. Every railway Off
cial has an ambition to keep his dfvi-
sion or district clear from paSSen-
ger wrecks and from the death of
passengers in these wrecks In fact.
q wreck is as big a calamity in a rail-
way office as it is in the homes OF
the passengers.
The second district of the Rock
Island Lines with headquarters in
country of the middle west. It in
cludes the Kansas, st. Louis, Kansas
City Terminal, Ell Paso, Nebraska and
Colorado divisions of the road. The
476.84, the st. Louis with 299.96, the
Kansas City Terminal with 255, the
Ell Paso with 460.S3, the Nebraska
with 1920 and the Colorado division
with 53265 miles comprises a railway
system in itself.
Practically all of this territory is
single track. With single track oper-
alton, officials of the railroad take
more risk than in the double track
accommo dations. For instance, take
the track between Topeka and Nc
Far1and. Here is a stretch of single
track that is kept humming by fast
freight and passenger trains. Not n
passenger was hurt on this line in the
year 1911.
The credit for the last years rec
ord on the second district is due to
the efficient organization and man
agement of this section of the road.
Every man in the employ of the road
from flagman to general manager has
done his duty in the protection of
passengers.
(And the scores of all-stee1 coaches
that the Rock Island has placed in
service on all its heavy trains must nos
be overlooked in the credit column

SAVE MONEY IN PRINTING.
Chief Engineer of Great Western Says
Waste Is Tremendous.

Chicago, Ill, Feb. Railroads
throughout the United States can save
at least $4,000 600 year on station
cry and printing bills, according to L.
c. F'ritch, chief engineer of the Chi
cago Great Western railroad, and for
mer president of the American Rail
way Engineering association.
During 1909 he says the railways of
the country spent SIC. $780, 900 for sta
tionery and printing. one of the large
systems expending $2.3OO.000 for this
item alone. During the same year on
the same system, according to Mr.
F'ritch. 100000 less was spent for
steel rails than for stationery and
printing.
The requirements imposed upon
railways by commissions of various
kinds, by rules or laws regulating the
operation of carriers he declares in
a communication to the current issue
Of the Railway Age Gazette, ''are an
nually costing the railways millions of
dollars, much of which is absolute
waste, but waste which the carriers
are absolutely powerless to control
Among other things, Mr.. Fritch
says, railroads could practice economy
by conducting their own printing

of officials of the Chicago, Milwaukee

attorney for the government argued
that the men were on duty under

HIS BIRTHDAY CAME LATE.
So Congress Must Pass Special Act for
Al Strong.


Washington, Feb. S.-Although Al
den G.. Strong, Kansas man who
wants to be a second lieutenant in the
coast artillery corps, has passed the
required examination, has been ap-
pointed by the president, and has had
his appointment confirmed by the SEN
ate, it will require a special act of con-
gresS to get him his commission.
The introduction by Senator BriS-
tow of a special bill for Strong's relief
has attracted attention to the unusual
circumstances of the case. Under the
law applicants for these civilian ap-
pointments in the army must be not
over p years of age. Mr. Strong had
passed the examination last Septem-
Der, and when his name was sent to
the senate, on December q, he was
Just ten days under the maximum age.
Unfortunately, congress adjourned on
that day for the holiday recess, and
before it convened again, Mr. Strong's
twenty-seventh birthday was past.
His appointment with others, was
confirmed on January s, but the war
department holds that, under the law
he can not now be commissioned.
Senator BristoW thinks congress ought
to undo the damage it's Christmas va
cation caused, and so has introduced
his bill authorizing Mr.. StrOngs ap-
pointment. In view of the circum-
stances, early favora BILE action by the
military affairs committee is antici-
pated.
Mr. Strong is Wichita boy, who
graduated from the State Agricultural
college in 1911, and is now doing en-
gineering work with the Westinghouse
company in East Pittsburg, Pa Dur
ing two college vacations he was a.
member of the SaIina baseball team.
