some experience with "long" freight
trains, especially in the east end of
the city and that he had instructed the
police department to arrest the crew
of any train which held a crossing
longer than three minutes in case of
fire. He said considerable annoyance
had been experienced in the past and
that drastic action would be taken il
conditions did not improve. He stated
that he recently received assurances
from railroad officials that their COM
panies would be glad to get informa-
ton in instances where the local fire
department had been hindered through
blocked crossings. He said that a
freight train of rs cars was not unus-
ual in these days.
Commissioner Hart said that often
the trains came to a stop to
receive orders from the dispatcher's
office. blocking crossings for several
minutes.
Mayor Urges Action.
'If a train is moving it is not so
bad" declared the commissioner.
There is some hope that eventually
you can get across. But to have a long
freight block your path and stop
well it's exasperating, to use a mild
term"
The mayor mentioned the fact that
conditions in this city were not so bad
as elsewhere. because the railroads
skirt the town, following the river. but
said that in Moline and other cities a
different situation is presented. He
urged that some action be taken by
civic and commercial associations con-
corning the important matter contain
ed in the Decatur letter. The commits
sion will consider the subject again
next Monday.

Ter There seems to be only two
redresses; elevation OF all tracks
through towns and villages. which on
account OF the great cost. seems to he
almost prohibitive and would reouire
long and expensive litigation to sue

A conference at some central noint
OF representatives from the cities and
villages OF the state was suggested.
Oeeatur's Complaint.
The following resolution which has
been adopted by the city council of
Decatur was read by Mayor Schriver:
Whereas, Owing to the length of
freight trains handled through the city
OF Decatur by the various railroads
operating through the city, the same
has been serious source of incon-
venience and danger to pedestrians
upon our streets. and invariably causes
delay to those going to and from their
employment, as well as those using the
streets for business purposes, and
Whereas, Fire departments have
been delayed in response to calls for
their services, owing to the fact of the
length of the heavy trains passing over
and across the streets of the said city,
and
Whereas, II has become a serious
source of danger to school children
going to and from school, by reason of
their blocking the said crossings and
their lack of experience in knowing
the danger. and
Whereas, We are of the opinion
that this difficulty could be adjusted
or corrected by the railroad companies,
and
Whereas. The public in general is
the one that suffers from the incon-
venience and danger above set forth.
Therefore, Be it, Resolved by the
city council of the city of Decatur,
that the clerk of the said city is here
by directed to mail copy of the above
resolution to the clerk of the house OF
representatives and the clerk of the
senate of Illinois, requesting that a
copy OF said resolution be printed and
placed upon the desk of each member
OF the house and each member of the
senate and that they be requested to
frame such legislation as will force the
railroad companies to furnish relief in
this matter"
