PUBLICITY SAVES LIVES ON RAILROADS
Qdlicials Find the Wrecks Arc Less Freguent and Discipline Better.
Chicago.—Publicity lis ecredited
with having decreased accidents on
the Harriman system of roads be
tween twenty and fifty per cent. with
in the past three years. This result
is indicated by a report made by
Julius Kruttschnitt, director of main
tenance and operation, to E. H. Har
riman, of a novel plan which has been
tried on that system of roads.
Besides decreasing accidents, pub
licity has served, it is said, to im
prove disciplineand increase efficiency
and also has protected the roads
against newspaper misrepresentations
and unfair hostility on the part of
communities. When the plan of giv
ing the fullest publicity to wrecks
was first broached by Mr. Kratt
schnitt, it was coldly received on all
sides. Tinally he succeeded in geot
ting it tried on the Union Pacifie, and
now all the Harriman lines follow it.
The new method depends for its
success largely upon speedily finding
out the cguse of the accident, placing
the blame where it belongs and let
ting the public know all the mews
papers care to tell about it. ™This
method is so different from the one
usually employed by railroads that it
caused a great deal of comment, but
Mr. Kruttschnitt is a firm believer in
the efficacy of public sentiment when
based upon a right understanding of
facts.
When an accident occurs on any of
the Harriman roads the superin
tendent, master mechanic and engi
neer of the division go at once to the
scene and organize a board of inquiry,
composed of themselves and one or
more leading citizens of the commun
ity. If this board fails to ascertain
the cause of the accident, a second
board is formed of the general super
intendent, general superintendent of
motive power, engineer of main
tenance of way and one or more citi
zens of the community. Should this
board in turn fail, a third board is
formed with the general manager at
'R head. In only one instance has
" 1 CENSUS OF STANDING TIMBER.
Estimates Ssy the Supply Will Last About Twenty-three Years Longer.
Washington, D. C.—The National
Conservation Commission has caused
the first comprehensive attempt at a
.census of the standing timber in the
United States ever undertaken. The
commission necds the information to
help complete its inventory of the
‘country’s natural resources, which it
will include in its report to the Pres
ident, and since that report is to be
submitted on January 1 next it needs
the information at once. In conse
quence the work on the census has
been started with a rush.
Estimates as to the amount of
standing timber in the United States
range all the way from 822,682,000,-
000 to 2,000,000,000,000 board feet,
a difference of more than a trillion
‘feet in the views of the best qualified
authorities in the country.
In the opinion of the forest service
the most carefully prepared estimates
yet made are those by Henry Gan
nett, published by the twelfth census |
fn 1900, which placed the total
'stumpage at 1,390,000,000,000 board |
feet., Mr. Gannett was recently cho
sen by the President to compile all
the information gathered for the
commission. The <ensus is expectodl
Russia’s Naval Budzet
Amourts to $44,067,500.
St. Petersburg, Russia.—The na
val budget was submitted to the Du
mua. It amounts to $44,067,500, an
increase over last year of §5§616,000.
The construction accbunt is $8,155,-
000, of which $3,771,000 is for new
construction. This decrease is due
to the fact that the appropriation for
construction of 1908 has not been
touched. The present program in
cludes the building of four battle
ships, five torpedo boat destroyers
and three submarines,

the general manager thus been called |
upon to act.
The board of inquiry does its work ;
quickly and not infrequently a news- |
paper representative is a member. |
The newspapers are furnished with |
a correct bulletin of the facts. This |
practice has greatly diminished tho !

unless the accident is in reality a big g

3317 VICTIMS OF NEW YORK I
sozmnss RAILWAYS IN ONE MONTH |
Report Shows There Were 5280 Accidents in
City in August. ,i
New York City.—There were 5280 |
railway accidents in New York City
in August, according to figures sub- |
mitted to the Public Service Commis- j
sion by its secretary. They resulted |
in the injury of 3317 persons. Of |
that number 2247 were passengers, |
539 were railway employes and 531‘
were neither passengers nor em
ployes. Forty-four persons were
killed, fifteen received fractured
‘gkulls, four lost legs or arms, thirty- !
four had legs or arms broken and |
dangerous injuries were inflicted on |
138 other persens. The total num
ber of persons dangerously wounded |
was 235, i
‘The report shows there were dur- |
ing the month 121 car collisions, 894 |
persons and vehicles struck by cars, |
652 persons injured when boarding |
cars and 1233 when alighting from
cars. Forty-one of the victims were
hurt by getting in contact with elec
tricity. ’ |
to give an accurate basis for comput
ing how long our timber supply will
last.
The consensus of opinion is that
the present annual consumption of
wood is about 100,000,000,000 board
feet, or something more than that.
One leading authority has placed it
as high as 150,000,000,000 board
feet. Assuming a stumpage of
1,400,000,000,000 feet, an annual
use of 100,000,000,000 feet and neg
lecting growth in the calculation the
exhaustion of our timber supply is
indicated in fourteen years, and as
suming the same use and stand, with
an gnnual growth of 40,000,000,000
feet, a supply for twenty-three years
is indicated. Letters to county clerks
asking for statements of forest areas
in their counties have been forward
ed. Seven thousand lumbermen and
timber land owners have been asked
to suuply similar information. In
all, nearly 150,000 letters have been
sent. These letters also ask for a
wide variety of information, includ
ing not only the lumbering and mill
ing industries, but all others, even
indirectly dependent upon the use of
wood.
