The meeting wm a very harmonious and
auceeeaful one. A oemmlltea en bow te
obtain harmony In railway legislation wm
appointed te report sueh suggestions m
they might agree upon, bnt merely In tbe
line of progress, m no Immedlste definite
purpose wm outlined for tbe action of the
convention. Tbe following resolution wm
adepted:
"Resolved, Tbat we believe that still
further advanee toward uniform olasslnoa elasslnoa olasslnea
tlon of freight will promote the welfare
and oenvenienoe et shippers and et tbe
railroad oempanlc-a, and we reoemmend
a conservative but persistent effort te that
and."
The following resolution was also uranl uranl
meusly adopted without debate :
Unsolved, Tbat we de respectfully and
earnestly urge tbe Inter-state oemmeros
commission te consider wbat can be done
te prevent the leas of Ufa and limb In coup
ling and uncoupling freight ears used in
Interstate commerce, and in handling the
brakes of ttieh ears, and In what way the
growth of the system of heating psmenger
cars from tbe locomotive or ether single
tonree can be promoted, te tbe end that
aald comm'Mileu may mska recommenda
tions In the premises te various railroad a
within I (a jurisdiction, and nuke sueh
suggestion si te legislation en aald
subjects m msy seem te It necessary or ex
pedient. Tbe aeesten closed with an address by
ex-Rsllrea'l Commissioner Collin, of Iowa,
new reprtaentlng the Brotberbeod of
Brakemen, which was received with
marked attention. In tbe course et It the
gentleman said :
" Were It net that I wm requested by
this very Important body et men tbe
Brotherhood et Kail Brakemen In tbe
United States te be here 1 certainly would
net, after the passage of tbe reaolntlen tbat
you have adopted, tblnk of cecupylng your
time ; but 1 simply want te state eeme
facts that 1 bave learned by very bard ex
perience, wbleb, probably, none of these
gentlemen would like te go through in
order te learn w bat I bave learned in regard
te lb
" 1 want te sir te this fact, tbat any labor
looking toward tbe passage by tbe nations!
legislature of a law compelling tbe adop
tion of safety appliances en freight ears will
ba In the proper direction, and tbat If such
law were paseed It would net at all be de
trimental te the railway oempanles. In
faet it Is perfectly practicable. That 1 bave
learned, and It bas been generally learned,
and Is an undisputed faet. Tbe only ques
tion Is tbat of dollars snd cents.
" I will make a few remarks before you,
gentlemen who are commissioners from
tbe several states, tbst you are perhaps net
aware of. 1 refer te tbe wonderful slaughter
of men by tbe old link and link coupler
and the hand brake Oar commission in
Iowa hu caused a law te ba made tbat has
been en the atalule books ten years, te the
eUect that tbe railroads shall report te tbe
commissioner the accidents occurring along
their lines, and it Is shown tbat In ten
years we have killed and maimed 2,421
men In tbe atate of Iowa by these two
eauiea alone.
"These are astounding facts. The aver
age would be something like -10 a year.
These reports commenooa wbeu we only
had 0 000 mites of railway, whlle new we
have 8,000. The commissioners' report last
year shows thst there were killed and
wounded by these two causes alone 319.
We think lu Iowa our reads are managed
asearetully as any reads. We aroatem areatem aroatem
peraneo state, and cur railway men are
temperate and careful, and still last year
tbere wote eyer 310 men kilted and maimed
by tbe two causes I bave spoken of.
"There are 150,000 miles of railroad In the
United States, and ever alx thousand of
these setlve, strong men were either killed
cr maimed for llie trem these two causes
alene last year. I state theae facta se ts
te InBplre aeert et enthusiasm en the part
et tbe inter state commerce commissioners
te lndune tbem te use their lnllaence te
pass an set by the national legislature
compelling tbe adoption et asfety appli
ances. I' bave a table In my band In
condensed form, showing that In all the
great aecldenls lu the last titty years there
were less killed and maimed than there
were killed and maimed by the two causes
I bave spoken of lest year. These facts are
astounding.
"The resolution wbleb you have passed
leeks te-vard national legislation In regard
te these Hafety appliances. Tee only legis
lation needed, In my judgment, take It for
wbat It It worth Is that In regard te
couplers and brakes. The matter of heating
eara will take care et Itself. As a matter of
advertisement every main line will bave
these safety heating apparatup, but you and
1 will send i u rear lead et boss or ateers,
or vi hatever it msy be, en any train en any
read tbat will take them, no matter If a
half dozen brakemen are killed at a time
In coupling the ear In wbleb our freight is
te another car In a train Uat la te carry the
lead en.
"Let me glve you another faet, Last year
in tbe state et Iowa there were l,425,&!0
paaaengers who travelled. Net one was
burned by a Ure beating stove. While at
the same time we killed and Injured in tbat
state by tbe pin and link coupler 350 "

te atep te another. In doing this
he slipped and fell between the ears.
One ear passed evor him and he
was then thrown from the traek.
His body was almost out In two and terribly
mangled. He wm InBtantly killed. Read

H. Treutman,abrnkeman. He wm stand
ing en top of a box car when his train
pulled out rather sharply after tbe express
bad gene east. Near him was another

station and Just as bis car entered It
he wm struck by tbe heavy Iren girder
overhead. He fell from tbe top of tbe car
and landed under the wheels. Several
cars passed ever bis body and be was

ACTION Or THE ItAK.

Btlnnt.nt Httprct Fer tlie IXctnefxt.
A largely attended meeting of 'the Lw
eMter bar was held In the mam court
room en Wednesday afternoon te take
action en tbe death of Judge Leng. Oj
motion of Mr. Reynolds, Nathaniel Kll
maker was elected prcaldent and Walter
M. Franklin secretary.
In taking tbe chair Mr. Ellmaker roterred
te his long acquaintanceship with Judge
Leng, paid an eloquent trlbute te bis worth
m a cttlr.sn and his purity as ajudge.
Mr. Reynolds followed In n brief address
euloglstle et deceased. He said :
" 1 have hesitated considerably wbotber
1 should ssy a word en this occasion, fear
ing tbat I should be se overcomo by my
feelings as te be unsble te glve even a
faint Idea of the sorrow that filled my
heart when 1 heard the announcement of
tte deith of my dear old frlend, Judge
Leng.
I de net propose te Indulge In the lan
guage et psnegyrie. My regard for the
memory et the dead and ter the ebllgv
liens of tbe living equally rebuke aucb a
course, yet my relatleus for yesra with our
departed friend demand tbat I shall be
mere than a .Heet spectator of this tu:lan tu:lan
chely aeene.
"I wm admitted te the bar thirly-three
years age by bis permission. In his pros pres pros
eceo and under his diioeilon and Judlelal
guidance 1 fenght many hard battles with
men of acknowledged ability and great
distinction In their time sueh men as
Stevens, Frazsr, Ulcoier, Dlckey and
ethers, whose names 1 will net step
te tell, who were long alnce called te
their everlasting home, leaving immor
tal namea upon tbe psges of history, t
WMaboytben; they were giants. Not
withstanding auch a contrast, 1 bIwbjh
felt sate when my cve was Jmt
lc tbe bands of a Judge with unstained
ermine, whose honesty was never ques
tioned whose Christianity, humanity and
integrity were tbe leading features of his
mett estimable character. Tliesoqualltle',
coupled with a vigorous Intellect, trained
by indefatigable Industry in tbe oenlosts of
a stirring life, Joined wltu an at dent love et
bis rrofessten, were tbe eloments of IiIh
scoeesi, and we dwell upon them with
mernfnl gratification new as we are about
te fellow blm te tbe cold and silent .grave.
"I knew him well socially. Ile wai kind,
frank and a true and faithful friend. Hew
often I bave ponderod ever tbe advice and
words of encouragement he gave me In the
days of my early struggle for a pi cee
among lawyere. I ahall miss him we will
alt miss bfm. Ile has passed bnyend tbe
reach of censure or et iiralse. His virtues
and his legal fame still live, and will tie
cherished and remembered wben tbe
stately walls of Ibis temple shall bave
crumbled and fallen, leaving nothing but
broken fragments le tell the story of tbelr
former beauty.
"It is sad, but It li true tbe frlends cf
my youth are last passing nwny, My time
wilt seen oeme; when It comes msy It be
said et me and of all who hear iny voleu
te day as we all ssy of the distinguished
dead be was honest, pure and Just.
Jlequietcat in pace.
Mr. Llghtner moved tbe appointment of
a commlttee et seven te dralt suitable
