Comparison Of Figures.

"a comparison of the Figures sub
mitted by two other of the principal
eastern lines shows respectively, a
mileage of 2,25S, with 5,45l IN
stances Of excess service as compared
with g,S29 miles and 16,44S in
stances. In the prairie country, one
road with mileage of 4,755, reports
approximately 10000 instances oil
excess service, while another road IN
the same territory, with more than
: 500 miles of tracks. reports only
. 3lO instances of excess service
"ln the Southwestern territory
one road, operating less than O,4O"
miles Of tracks, reports approximate
Nv ZOO instances of excess service
while another line, similarly situated
geographically, reports only 2SO m
stances on a mileage Of more than q
5O4 miles. A corresponding COM
harrison between two roads in the
Northwestern section of the country
shows mileage of approximately S.
400 miles with less than 500 in
STANCES of excess service, while an
other road, with less than 1000
miles of line. reports nearly G'OO'
instances of excess service.

monthly reports OF interstate rail-
roads OH hours of service during the
fiscal year ending June 80, 1913.
Nearly 100000 violations of the
l6.hour law were reported by 26a
during the year, the roads
submitting various reasons why such
violations were necessary. The COM
nlission's analysis points out, how
ever, that while this figure may APP
pear abnormal to the lay mind. i
must be rendered that 251,1ll men
were employed in handling trains
during the year and that the excess
service probably would not exceed
one instance to each employe.
THE difference in efficiency and
safety of operation between various
railroad systems" Mr., McChord said,
lis shown clearly by the Commits
sion's analysis in the marked dis
parity between the ratio of excess
service to mileage between railroads
serving practically the same terri
tory. For instance, one of the East
6 IN roads. operating more than $780,
miles Of tracks, reports 1924 in
stances in which trainmen were OF
duty for periods longer than thos'
provided by law; while another roat
in the same territory, with mileage
of less than $500 miles, reports ~
663 such instances.

Maximum of 16 Hours.

The law provides u maximum Of
sixteen hours us the limit of contin
uance service for trainmen engaged
in the physical operation Of trains.
This law admittedly is being violat-
cd continually by the railroads
many times unavoidably. The car
riers are required to report each ill.,
stance in which an employee served
more than sixteen hours consecutive
ly, fine Of $50 Obeing the penalty
for failure to report. ..
The analysis shows that derail-
ments afforded the most prolific
cause of excess service. SS.317 cases
being attributed by the carriers to
that generic cause. In 1850 in
stances. the delays were DUE TO-
coupler and draw-bar defects, whil5
1873 cases were attributable to mis-
cellaneous car defects. Landslides.
high water and fire were reported by
the carriers Involved. as responsibleI
for 1885 eases; and congestion of
traffic resulted in 1882 employees
exceeding the limit of service. In
1O,620 instances the excess service
was caused by track defects and OBJ
structions not resulting in collisions
or derailments: while 1910 cases
were due primarily to collisions.
Under the heading of Engine De-
avs" 15,5O7 instances of excess SER
vice were reported as attributable to
miscellaneous mechanical defects,
while otrer engine delays usually In
.ident to the operation Of trains,
, we're responsible for nearly 10000
additional cases.
Result of Prosecutions.
"As Il result of the prosecutions in'
stituted by the commission" the an
ulysis points out, the number of in
stances of excess service reported
during the last six months, as COM
pared with the corresponding figures
for preceding years, has shown a
marked reduction"
I My belief is" said Commissioners
McChord, that the carriers involved
| will concGde to the commissions an
! alysis OF their reports such a degrees
OF attention as will enable them, by
, apprising themselves of the prevent
I able causes of excess service, TO elim-
I mate the majority of instances in
which employees heretofore have been
permitted or required to remain on
I duty for longer periods than sixteen
consecutive hours"
Under the head of Employees in
Train Service" the analysis shows an
aggregate OF SIS instances in which
| employes returned to duty after SIX
teen hours continuous service with
out having had at least ten consecu'
tive hours off duty, while PA of sucl
employees were returned to duty after
sixteen hours of continuous service
