OvERCRoWD1NG OPEN CARS.
Discomfort and Unfairness of Ad-
hitting "Standees"'. Between Seats.
70 the Editor of The Star:


The latest complaint made against the
local street railway company Is that
when open cars are filled to their seating
capacity more persons are allowed to
board. The result of this overcrowding
Is distinctly felt by the seated passengers.
Persons who cannot find seats are forced
to stand in the narrow space. owing to
the Districts regulations directly in front
Of the seated passengers. What is the
result? The seated persons are piqued by
having their feet trod upon. and when
the car takes curve the standing pas
fall back upon the unfortunate persons
behind them-to the chagrin of the lat
ter.
Again, when person sitting at the
farther end of a seat wishes to leave
the car, and the small space Is obstructed,
how is this person going to manage 1t
without causing the car to lose time? Is
the conductor willing to wait until the
person finally chambers over the other
passengers. or does his schedule call for
quick action?
Why cannot the car company guard
against such congested condition by
supplying adequate car service. insurins
every person a seat. and refusing to take
any more passengers after the car has
been filed?
Surely people paying car fare are en-
titled to a seat. or at least to a ride that

ferred to- The company, which Is main
