bodon is calcium carbonate, saponifed

A tube of this fine cream can be

impose or any other reasonable condi-
ton with reference to the operation
Of either trains or electric cars over
a grade crossing. Section IS reads in
part, THE Public Utilities Commits
sion shall determine the manner and
condition Of one railroad of any kind
crossing another Section Is reads
in part, Tn the case Of a railroad
company Of any kind whose tracks
are to be constructed across the
tracks Of any railroad already built
such crossing shall be made. con-
structed and maintained in such man
shall be ordered by the Public Util-
tiles Commission"
According to our view Of either Of
these sections it was the authority
and duty Of the Railroad Commission
not merely to permit the crossing to
be made and to determine where upon
the face Of the earth it should be To-
Gated. and other mechanical details.
but also to determine under what
condition such crossing when actually
located should be used. and to refuse
its consent unless such conditions
were agreed to, and to grant its con-
sent upon those reasonable conditions.
II this be true. the Public Utilities
Commission. under the provisions Of
Chapter "a Of the Public Laws Of the
year 1917, has authority to rescind,
alter or amend any order or decree Of
the Railroad Commission.
We decide that the Board Of Rail-
road Commissioners had authority to
impose the condition found in this de-
cree; that it possessed the authority
to impose any other reasonable con-
dition under which trains or cars
might be moved over such crossing;
and that this commission has author
thy to reasonably amend or alter such
degree.
1t therefore becomes q question
whether the decree as originally made
is still reasonable. and II not what Is
reasonable under all the circum-
'stances.

Maine Central Shall Keep Flasman

Electric Road Shall Stop Car Where

The Maine Public Utilities Commits
sion has rendered a decision in the
case of the Lewiston, Augusta & Wa
terville Street Railway for a modifi-
cation Of a decree Of the former Board
Of Railroad Commissioners relating
to the crossing of the Maine Central
Railroad tracks and the tracks Of the
petitioner on Maine avenue, Gardi-
ner. 1t in substance does away with
the full stops heretofore required by
both steam cars and electrics and Or
ders that all motormen of electric
cars shall stop at distance from the
crossing where he can observe IL q
steam car is approaching and orders

at the crossing to notify all electric
cars and passersby Of the approach Of

The decision is a lengthy document
signed by Commissioners Cleaves and

This is a petition by the Lewiston

very near the electric car tracks and
not more than eight or ten feet away
from the steam railroad tracks. This
building obstructs the view Of a mo-
torman approaching from Gardiner or
Of an engineer or brakeman ap-
preaching on the steam railroad from
the main line. All the other angles
are sufficiently clear so that the oper-
ators upon either railroad can see an
approaching car or train for a con.
siderable distance. It was intimated
that the Maine Central Railroad was
to purchase this building and that 1t
would probably be removed. but this
was not a definite statement, and we
have no right to assume IL to be true.
But in any event. it impresses US as
unnecessary to require both the elec-
trio railroad and the steam railroad
to protect this crossing. particularly
the electric railroad. where at least
nine out Of ten Of it, movements over
the crossing will not be obstructed
or endangered by the approach or
passage Of any cars upon the steam
railroad.
We cannot ignore the fact that the
passengers and property Of the elec-
trio railroad are not the only persons
or property put in danger during the
passage Of a train on the branch
steam railroad track. These cars
also cross a considerably Travelled
highway. and each time the cars upon
the steam railroad track 60 over this
crossing there Is some danger to a
traveller upon the highway. This is
undoubtedly one Of the reasons why
the managers Of the steam railroad
now follow the practice Of Tagging
each movement and conducting it At
a speed not more than four miles an
hour. This is a reasonable rule and
practice. and II adhered to will give
highway travellers full protection.
And at the same time that obser-
vance Of these practices Is protecting
travellers upon the highway the same
observation and precaution will pro.
tect to q great degree the passengers
and property Of the electric railway.
We do not know why the Railroad
Commission decreed that the cars Of
the steam railroad should be stopped
within 100 feet Of the crossing and
that the electric cars should also be
SO stopped. They did not decree that
some member Of the crew operating
each car should 90 to the crossing
and there protect and warn other
cars. trains or travellers who were
about to 60 over the crossing. We
believe that the practice Of tagging
is necessary and far better protection
thAn the mere stopping Of the train
or cars. We shan therefore provide
that the motorman upon the electric
car shall. ct the crossing and before
attempting to 20 over the same, stop
hts car at . point where he may look
and see whether any train Is ap-
preaching in either direction. We
shall not require the conductor at
this particular crossing to perform
the service known Is running q
crossing" We shall also provide that
the practice Of tagging all train
movements upon the steam railroad
at slow speed shall be continued to
the end that ample protection may
be given and given by the agency
which. In our judgment. should fur.
nish the protection under all the cir
cumstances.
