MINIMIZING
ACCIDENTS.

In a further effort to make safety
first" reality not only in guarding
the lives of employees and passen-
gers but in protecting the general
public, the Southern Railway has in
augurated campaign to bring au-
tomobilists and drivers of other We
hicles to a realization of the dangers
of reckless disregard of human life
at railroad grade crossings. During
the fiscal year ending June 30, the
Southern carried more than 16,500,--
900 passengers with only one fatal
injury to passenger while on Il
train, and this accident was due tc
the passenger standing on the plat
form of car, in violation of the
"saefty first" warnings. Not one was
killed in u train accident.
During the same period twelve per-
sons riding in automobiles were killed
in accidents at public highway cross
ings, and according to the company's
statement, each of these lives could
have been saved had the driver Of
the car observed the caution signs.
In all there were sixty nine automo-
bile accidents at Southern Railway
crossings. In addition to the twelve
persons killed ffty-eight were IN
jured.
The Washington Division OF the
Southern Railway was originally
known as the Orange and Alexandra
Railroad. This road was operated
over a third of a century before a
passenger lost his life while traVel-
ing over the route.

THE CASE OF
CHARLES BECKER.

Charles Becker, former police lieu
tenant of New York city has at last
drawn near the shadow of the electric
chair. At present it looks as though
the law will be allowed to take its
course and he will be made to pay
the penalty for his completely in the
murder of Herman Rosenthal.
The condemned man has issued .
statement intended to exculpate Inn
from the charge against him but /:
has not appealed to Governor Whit
man. That official has in no way in.
timated that he will interrupt the
carrying out of the sentence imposed
upon the former lieutenant.
The fate of Becker brings to mind
many stories in connection with the
peceabiats of police officials. Accord
ing to; Becker's statement, conditions
in the great American metropolis are
no Improvement upon those existing !.
