f THE PILOT OF DEATB.
Presumable Safeguards that Add to
the Dangers of Cable Cars.
WHY MANY ACCIDENTS ARE FATAL
Eapld Transit Companies Looking for Some
thin? Which
WILL KOT CRUSH THE LITTLE ONES
The recent fatal accidents to children who
hare been crushed beneath the pilots of
cable cars has excited considerable comment
among citizens.
The solntion of the rapid transit problem
for large commnnities is a subject which bas
been agitating the principal cities of the
country lor several years. Various schemes
and ways have been devised and pnt into
practice to effect a satisfactory rapid transit
system. None of them, as yet, have filled
tbe bill with satisfaction to all parties con
cerned. New York has been running ele
vated roads for many years. Its people are
thoroughly disgusted with the experiment
and are only waiting for a favorable oppor
tunity to throw the L roads overboard. Phil
adelphia and Chicago have adopted the cable
system for want of something better. From
these two cities there come frequent reports
of terrible accident caused by tbe cable cars,
and it is immediately followed by a bowl of
discontent and complaint from the people.
Within the last year the cable roads and
electric lines have been introduced into
Pittsburg. As a question of getting to and
from their homes at a reasonable rate of
speed, both of these systems appear to meet
with no objection from the public in gen
eral. THE LITTLB VICTIMS.
Bat the late unfortunate accidents on tbe
Penn avenue cable road within the short
space ot one week, which resulted tbe deaths
of three small boys, have aroused the people
of the city to tbe fact that some greater
safeguards for human life must be adopted
by tbe cable companies before the rapid transit
question can be said to be satisfactorily settled
in the city.
The only safeguards with which the cable
cars are now equipped are the pilots attached
to the front of the cars, like the "cow catcher"
on a locomotive. These pilot are raised above
the rails of the track from three to eight In
ches. Some of them are even higher. This
height above the track is too great to prevent a
fatal accident in the case of any child who may
he thrown down in front of an approaching
car. In the three fatal cases which resulted
last week the pilots passed over the victims,
squeezing tbe life out ot them between the
pilots and the paving stones of tbe street. Had
the pilots been closer down to tbe rails, death
might not have resulted. The unfortunate
boys would then most probably have been
thrown to one side, and escaped with perhaps a
broken leg or arm.
An ere witness to the death of the boy who
was killed last Friday on Penn avenue, between
Sixteenth and Seventeenth street, said that the
Eilot of the car raised over tbe boy and crushed
is head and body down upon tbe stony roadbed
of the track. The wheels of the car did not
tonch the boy. He was mashed into a bleeding
pulp by the iron pilot. Another boy was killed
on the same road near Eighth street tbe follow
ing day,Saturday. The circumstances of the two
deaths were similar. The second boy was
canght likewise between the track and the
pilot, and in that position he was pushed over
the stones until life was ground out of him.
His flattened body was at length freed from
that narrow space and lay under the car be
tween both front wheels when it was picked op.
KILLED BY THE PILOTS.
In both of these cases the boys would un
doubtedly have escaped with less injuries bid
there been no pilots on tbe cars.
Since tbe occurrence of these vhree accidents
there have been many complaints heard among
tbe people along the lines of tbe cable cars, and
several communications censnrlng tbe cable
companies Tor not providing more efficient life
guards on their cars have been received at THE
Dispatch office. All of these communications
give praise to tbe gripajen for bringing their
cars so quickly to a standstill when they saw that
an accident was to occnr, but tbey condemn se
verely the management, which permits the car
pilots to remain at such a height above the
level of the tracks.
The writer of one of these communications,
Mr. James Miskemem, says "there is no earthly
chance for a child strnck by a cable car, as tbe
pilot Is more certain In its deatb dealing power
than the car of Juggernaut." Children, be says,
have not one chance out of a thousand of es
caping alive with the pilots of tbe cars at their
present elevation above the rails.
Mr. Miskemem is a mechanic and has had 17
years of experience working on railroads. He
and the superintendents of two of the cable
lines Mere seen yesterday and gave their views
with reference to tbe question ot better life
guards in the cars.
"I have railroaded 17 years," said Mr. Miske
mem, "and I know something about the effi
ciency and inefficiency of pilots. Conncils or
the Humane Society or the Anti-Cruelty So
ciety ought to take this matter up and compel
the cable companies to lower the pilots on tbe
cars to 2 inches above the rail. It
can be done and it should be done at
onco to save children from inevitable death.
Tbe unmuzzled dogs in the city are not half so
dangerous as those pilots. From four to eight
Inches is tbe average beisht above tbe rails.
The companies miiht object to lowering the
pilots on the plea that tbe track is oral," con
tinued Mr. Miskemem, "that is, that the slot is
a little higher than the rails on both sides, but
tbe pilots could easily be made to conform to
that curvature.
NOT A GOOD EXCUSE.
"The companies might also object that if the
pilots were lower than they are now, the paving
stones micht become loosened and jnmp up and
interfere with the running and construction of
the cars. It is tbe duty of the companies to
keep the roadbeds of the tracks in proper con
dition. The pilots should also come out more
in front of the car and should be made more
pointed, like the pilots on a locomotive. As
they are now the pilots are nearly square.
They have a tendency to push an object along
in front of the car Instead of throwing it off tbe
track to one side."
Mr. Miskemem witnessed the fatal accident
on Penn avenue, near Sixteenth street last
Friday, and he said that had Abe car pilot been
made with a greater slant it would have thrown
the boy off the track with perhaps a broken leg
Or an arm.
Mr. Rugg, Superintendent of the Penn ave
nue cable road, was seen at his offico at Thirty
first street and Penn avenue. When the sub
ject was broached be at once admitted the im
perfections of the present pilots.
We don't suppose they are perfect life
preservers," he said. "We have now some
thing in view which may improve them. The
present dissatisfaction of the people and the
cable companies with the life guards Is not con
fined to Pittsburg alone. The same grievances
of the public exist in Philadelphia and Chl
caeo. Those cities have tried various plans,
but none has been found to work satisfactorily.
The pilots are not as effective astheysbould
be. but they are as good as those on tbe electric
cars, and the best that have yet been fonnd. It
is tbe effort of our management to find some
thing as near perfection as can be. But it is
almost Impossible to get anything to rnn close
to the rail and to conform to the surface of
the street and to the line laid down by the Ciiy
Engineer."
"How near to the rails do you think the pilot
should comef
WHAT IS 2TEEDED.
"We have got to have something that will
come down to I or 1 inches above the rail to
be effective. It must also be flexible to ride over
any obstruction that is met on tbe road."
"What do yon mean by saying that you must
conform to the surface of the road. Mr. RuggT"
'I mean that the roads aro unevenly con
structed. The street paving is uneven. We have
to set our rails flush with tbe paving. We hare
also to provide for the crossing of railroad
tracks."
Do yon think the late accidents might have
been prevented with a lower pilotT"
"Possibly they might." Those accidents
showed us, however, that the pilots were not
effective. With another pilot a broken arm or
leg might have resulted. But, as I have said,
we mean to provide the best that can be adopt
ed. We are not idle. We are looking out for
something every day. A few months ago tbe
railroad publications began a series of articles
on this same subject of trams. I assume that
they write from experience and that they have
been over tne country and have seen what Is In
use. Our management is reasonably posted on
II improvements both by publications and
correspondence. There is no more' effective
life guard at present that I know of In any citr
than the one In use in Pittsburg, but as I saicL
It is not effective. The name difficulty is met
with brail companies." -
.Mr. Rngg said that tbe pilots on the Penn
avenue line were from three to six inches above
the rails, and that tbey were sprang and liable
to raise up when any obstruction was luet.
tz.'BTU Superintendent of, taeFUtiiave-
-" .
tine line, was next seen. He claimed that the
pilots on his cars were sufficiently low. He
said that tbey were about three inches above
the rails and two inches above tbe slot.
nOTJRES DON'T aosee.
By actuaf measurement, however, two cars,
picked out at random on the street, showed tbe
height ot tbe pilot above tbe rails to be 6
inches in one Instance and a fraction of six
inches In the other.
Asked if the company intended to make any
improvements in the pilots on their cars, Mr.
Davis said: "Not we are not It is impossible
to keep the pilot closer to the rails, beause tbe
stones become dislodged by heavy teams and
cause blockades on the road. This trouble has
frequently broKen our pilots and driven them
under tbe cars."
"While Mr. Davis was talking a car with a
rubber tube about two Inches in diameter came
along. " It looked as if the pilot without the
tube micht be ten inches above the rails. Tbe
use of the rubber tube, Mr. Davis explained,
was to get the pilot as near to the rail as pos
sible, and still have it flexible so as to enable It
to clear obstructions.
The pilots on the Fifth avenue line are no
lower than on the other lines, but Mr. Davis
did not agree with tbe Superintendent of the
Penn avenue line that the pilots were not
effective. Chance had recorded but one fatal
accident on tbe Fifth avenue line, he said, and
bethought that fact proof sufficient that the
pilots were effective.
Sensible Hints for Summer.
To the many hundreds of families who do
not find it convenient to leave the city for
the summer months the following hints will
be found valuable. Avoid exposure to the
sun as far as possible; do as little cooking as
you can, thereby keeping your house and
yourself cool, aud the best summer drink by
all odds is buttermilk. Cover your floors
with cool and clean matting, hang lace cur
tains to your windows, thereby letting in the
air and keeping out the flies, and where cur
tains are not used hang window shades that
will exclude the light and heat During
the day wear a neat gingham dress and for
evening put on a cool satine wrapper, bathe
every day and get your hosiery, underwear,
fans, etc, from Arthur Schondelmyer &
Co.. who have mattings at So and 10c per
yard, lace curtains at 51 a pair and upward,
window shades at 25c apiece and upward,
ginghams, percales and satines from 10c to
25c per yard. By observing the above bints
you will have no trouble getting, through
the summer. Come to 68 and 70 Ohio st.
