THE SPEED-UP SYSTEM
Editor Day Book.-There is some
hope for the wage earneTs if the Chi
cagO Federation of Labor will back
up and follow up everlastingly their
attitude toward the so-ca1ed speed
ing up" system. Under our present
system of production the landlord
gets rent for his share of production;
the laborer gets wages; the capitalist
gets interest; and the management OF
the enterprise gets the profits.
Now, for arguments sake, we will
admit the justice Of the above distri-
button among the producers thereof,
and that it is in the ratio in which
each has contributed to the aggre-
gate production, paying no attention
to the fact of the weakness of the
proposition when we consider the
landlords share known as economic
rent. If present production is divided
in proportion to the efforts Of the
producers all should be satisfied so
far as it is possible to satisfy mankind
under a competitive system.
Now, here comes a "speeder up"
one who says that efficiency is the
saving resulting from the elimination
of unnecessary motion or movements.
This undoubtedly results in an in
crease of production. Admitting the
correctness of the definition and the
result of this application in increased
production, an analysis of this prob
lem will at once show that the in
creased production in this case is en-

THREE BRITISH
TRAINS COLLIDE;
KNOWN DEAD 164
Passengers Pinned Under
Debris Burned Alive
in England.

London, May Z3.--One hundred aid
sixty-four soldiers. apart from civil
ians. were killed in the railroad wreck
at Carlisle yesterday. morning. accord
ing to a press dispatch from that city.
Carlisle, England. May 22.-0ne Of
the most disastrous wrecks in the an
nails Of British railroading took place
AZ q m. to-day on the Caledonian
Railway at Gretna, near this city, when
three trains came into collision.
More than l60 persons were killed,
and the final list may be considerably
greater The total casualties probably
will reach 400, as tn. list of more or
less seriously injured is very numer-
Gus.
One Of the three trains was a troop
train. another was a local and the third
was the express from London TO Glas-
gov.
Fire broke out among the wreckage
and added appallingly TO the horror or
the scene. Assistance arrived quickly.
The fire force was called out, and after
getting the flames under control the
firemen Joined in eXtricatlng the dead
and the wounded.
The adjoining fields soon had the
appearance of an immense mortuary,
with the dead, the dying and the in
iured laid out in grewsome lines.
The dead mostly are soldiers. Inc
troop train collided first with the local,
and before the occupants were able 10
get clear of the wreckage of TINS accl-
dent. the express from London 20 Glas-

and cars, shattered and s1llntered,
were hurled far from the tracks.
The fire which broke out was soon
burning so fercely that the men en-
gagged in the work OF rescue were
driven back. There was nothing to do
but wait for the coming OF the fre
brigade. Once on the scene the hre-
men labored with frantic energy 70 OBJ
tain control Of the flames. before
,hey we're successful many OF the
travellers pinned under the wrecKage
of the cars and unable 10 make their
escape were burned alive before the
eyes Of the onlookers.
Five hundred men Of one regiment
were on the troop train. When the
roll was called after the wreck only
fifty two officers and men responded.
Numbers Of others. however, were en-
gagged in caring for their wounded
comrades.
An added hazard for the rescuers
was the explosion OF cartridges in the
belts of soldiers imprisoned IN the
burning wreckage, which caused bull
lets 70 fly about. Ammunition wagons
on the rear of the train were olsen
gagged barely in time TO prevent tneir
being blown up.
Some OF the victims were so mangled
that their rescue from the wreckase
was impossible. Several others VINO
we're extricated died soon after. Doc

In New York State the two ma

The state government is rotten
throughout in almost all its depart

dominance in politics of Mr.. Murphy
and his sub-bOsses aided

MARCONI RETURNS
TO SERVE ITALY
Mrs. Jnez Milholland Boissevain
Also Sails to Report War
for Tribune.

The American liner ST. Paul, in COM
mand of Captain Passow, sailed yes
terday for Liverpool with a large pas
senger complement, including Marconi,
the inventor of wireless telegraphy,
and Mrs. Inez Mlholland Bo!ssevain,
who will represent The Tribune as
war correspondent in Italy.
Marconi has been called TO Rome by
the Italian government. He could have
sailed yesterday on the Italian steam
ship Stampalia, bound for Naples and
Genoa, but business IN London made ~
necessary to 90 direct 20 Liverpool and
embark for Naples via Marseilles.
The inventor, who has given much of
mis- time 70 experiments with the wire
less telephone, said the system was de-
veloping remarkably well and equip
n cnts installed in Italian warships had
given much satisfaction at distance OF
100 miles He expressed the bellef
that within short time persons COM
munIcating with one another by wire
less telephone would be nol, 10 see
one another.
Marconi's mother is Irish, as is his
wife. who was the Hon. Beatrice
O'Brien. His father was born in Italy.
Although a lieutenant OF the Italian
navy, he said yesterday, his work would
be the supervision of the wireless, with
headduarters in Rome.
Marconi believes that German sub
marines are already in the Medlter-
ranean and the Adriatic, probably hav--
ing efficient bases on the Turkish and
African coasts. The Italian navy, he
said. could easily handle the Austrian
warships before they could get ready
to strike. II his services are not press
ing ne plans TO return TO New YORK
on a business trip in the latter part OF
September. He leaves litigation pend

BERLIN TO MAKE
NEW PROPOSALS
TO WASHINGTON
Note Due In Few Days
May Serve as Basis
for Negotiation.

Berlin via London, May 22.-The
Italian crisis, in which every one is
waiting expectsntly to see what form
Italy's war plans will assume, aosoros
the attention of both public and official
circles here. Little is heard Of the
Lusitania case, and IL is stated tnat
Germany's answer 10 the American note
cannot be expected before next Tues
day or Wednesday.
II would now be no surprise II the
German reply contained not only gem
eral defence OF the German position re-
garding submarine warfare, touching
particularly the sinking of the Lusl-
tania. but also certain proposals which
might serve as basis for further
negotiations between Germany and the
United States. Americas compromise
proposal made in a previous communl-
cation, for a cessation OF submarine
and mine warfare in return for an
abandonment by Great Britain Of her
starving ou. policy, will almost GER
tainly be referred to. Il wiz be pointed
out that Germany's acceptance in prin-
ciple Of the suggestion is still in force.
Il is not at all improbable that Ger
many also will advance an alternative
suggestion that the United States per-
nit it's citizens 10 travel on ships be-
longing TO belligerents only if these
vessels are certified by the United
States as having no munitions of war
sboa~d. and that such certified ships
would not be subject 10 torpedoing
without notice.
Renorts circulated in sAe United
States recently that Germany had pro-
posed arbitration are authoritatively
denied here.
Regarding the case OF the steamer
GulAight, which is included in Presi-
dent Wilson's representations on the
alleged submarine illegslities, the Ad-
miralty has reason to believe. it is
stated, that this ship was not damaged
by submarine, but from some other
cause. None OF the summarize com
manders have reported the damaging Of
the GulAight, and so much time has
elapsed chat all underwater boats
which might possibly have torpedoed
the vessel have now returned 20 their
bases.
