Another Rear-End Collision.

When three cars came together on II
street near 10th recently because they
were running too close together and TAX
ing too great a chance on slippery rails
during the rush hour Of the morning, the
official verdict was that the mishap was
purely accidental and no action was
taken to prevent occurrences. Last night
near Bonn.ng another rear-end collision
occurred in practically similar circum-
stances. only this time there were but
two cars in collision instead Of three.
one car slipped it's trolley. and while the
conductor was engaged in readjusting it
a car which was travelling unquestion-
ably too close to the che in front came
along at such speed that when the mo-
torman saw the red warming light on the
stalled car he could not check in time,
and so a collision resulted. Eight people
were hurt. one rather badly and il is a
wonder that more damage was not done.
inasmuch as the collision caused a fire
and panic ensued.
Was this an unavoidable accident? Is
there no way to guarantee the public
security while riding on the cars? This
latest collision occurred at half-past
seven at night, surely not the rush hour
and with no excuse for dangerously close
Roadway between the cars. Are the car
crews instructed sufficiently in the mat
ter of observing warning lights ahead?
Are they enjoined to take into account
the condition of the rails in the matter
of maintaining speed and keeping safe
Roadway? These questions should be
asked by some one in authority with
view to determine the responsibility not
merely for this collision. but for the
conditions that now obtain as a result
of which these so-cal!ed accidents are
continually occurring on the local lines.
Must Washington wait for rear-end
street car collision to cause death before
proceedings can be had that will compel
the observance of rules of safety? In all
likelihood il some one had been killed in
the H street collisions by this time some
sort of regulation would have been writ
ten and put in force to lessen the dan
gers. Now another one has occurred in
practically Identical circumstances and
if the procedure followed in the first in
stance is pursued now it will be officially
ignored as accidental beyond control An
altogether unsatisfactory condition pre-

gard to the regulation of street railway

of power should be renewed. The other
is that the republican party has failed
