"S,op, Look and Listen!'

The Pennsylvania Railroad has
been making a special inquiry into
the circumstances surrounding grade
crossing accidents along its lines. 1t
reports that in the first eight months
of this year thirteen persons were
killed and 104 injured under cir
cumstances the very nature of which
proved total disregard of caution and
in many cases wilful running OF
risks" Many of these were acci-
dents to automobile parties. In
twenty-three cases the drivers OF
motor cars ran into trains which
we're already part way over the
crossings. Such recklessness cost
four lives and injured fifty-one indi-
viduals.
Motorists were not alone in this.
Similar disregard of the most ele-
mentary caution was exhibited by six
riders of motorcycles, two bicycles
and the drivers of four horse-drawn
vehicles, causing the death of two
persons and injuries to fourteen. Six
automobiles, five motorcycles and two
horse-drawn vehicles smashed into
safety gates while they were down,
injuring nineteen persons. In eight
cases persons tried to crawl over
trains at crossings, while seventeen
tried to dodge under or around gates
which were down, only to be struck
by the approaching trains.
"Total disregard of caution" is too
mild phrase to apply to such court
ing of danger. In such cases the
coroner's verdict really ought to be
suicide" No railroad in the world
can protect the public against the
recklessness, the criminal careless
ness, of its own members. Abolish
ment Of all grade crossings is de-
voutly to be desired, and in this state
is gradually being accomplished by
the cooperation of the state, the
locality and the corporations con-
cerned. Nevertheless, the death toll
continues.
The management of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad believes, on the re-
suits of this inquiry, that accidents
at grade crossings are wholly avoid
able" and would not occur at all if
every ore, before crossing the tracks,
would "Stop, look and listen" 1t is
conceivable that the minimum amount
of caution dictated by good common
sense and a wholesome regard for
ones neck would not eliminate every
Embarrassing accident, but it as
suredly would greatly reduce the
total.

moral plain. Great literature flowers
in any soil. Obstacles help rather
than hinder. In living down an evil
start and building directly on his
tragic years o. Henry showed the
courage and singleness of aim which

will not look amiss amid the great

UNCERTAIN ON 8-H0UR LAW
Rail Heads Fail to Decide on Any Ac-
tion Against 1t

The situation created by the Adam
son eight-hour law as it affects the
railroads was again discussed yester-
day by the railway executives advi-
sorry committee, composed of the pres
idcnts and operating heads OF the large
railroad systems. No conclusion was
arrived at. IL was said. as to what ac-
ton, if any. the executives would take.
Hale Holden. president of the Chi
cago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad,
who acted as chairman, said that so
many legal aspects of the eight-hour
law had presented themselves and the
law was so complex that 1t would re-
quire further consideration and advice.
Another meeting Of the COMMITTEES
will be held soon.

NORMAN HAPGOOD.
New York. Oct. 20. 1916.
The Tribune finds upon investiga-
ton that the first of Mr.. Hapgoods
two assertions is beyond question
and that it has, as he asserts, mis-
represented him in this respect. 1t
therefore expresses its sincere re-
gret for a misstatement which, how
ever unintentional, was not the less
inexcusable.
AS to Mr.. Hapgood's second state
ment, The Tribune finds its assertion
supported by the account Of a Irlo-
une reporter present at the time the
alleged declaration was made. IL
therefore contents itself with print
ing Mr.. Hapgood's denial.

In an opinion given to Commissioner
Jackson, of the Department of Labor

has authority to forbid employment of
minors between II and 16 in the max

minors. Mr.. Brown says that he Is of
the opinion that 1t would not be unlaw-

Sbeeial to the Telegraph

London, Feb. 2. The following
official statements were given out in
the air raids:
THE air raid was attempted on an
extensive scale. 1t appears that the
raiders were hampered by a thick
mist. After crossing the coast the
Zeppelins steered various courses and
dropped bombs at several towns and
in rural districts in Derbyshire,, Lei
cestershire, Lincolnshire and Stafford
shire. Some damage to property was
caused. No accurate reports were re-
ceived until a very late hour.
THE casualties notified up to the
time of issuing this statement amount
to 81 persons killed and 81 injured"
The later communication says:
Further reports of the raid show
that the evenings raid attacks covered
a larger area than on any previous oc-
casion. Bombs were dropped in Nor
folk, Suffolk, Lincolnshire, Leicester
shire, Staffordshire and Derbyshire,
the number being estimated at 220.
