MOHLER ON ACCIDENT ABROAD
American Public ii Not Informed on
the Hrpenin in Europe.
MORE MISHAPS OCCUR ABROAD
Papers Are rll of ThMf, Krm More
Than Tapera In Tnla
Caaatrr, with the Nat
Itiin.
manager rit the t'nlnn Parlflc railroad com- i
puny. hss romi to the defense of the
Amerlr.n railroads Mr. Monler de.lares
that there ia a general belief abroad that
there are a gresi many more wrecks In
thin rountry than there are anywhere In
Kurop. but that thl belief la entirely un
founded. In his recent trip to Kurope he
dis-overed haV the same conditions of
rsllroadlng exlt there that are found
hre. and he belleveg, personally, that
there la an even greater averag. of ac
cident. '
"The. 'Oreit American Public' lias been
tamsht that there are never any railroad
win k on the railroads of Europe." says
Mr. Mohlrr. but If the people of this!
country had a real good opportunity of
learning' juat what accidents artually do
erur war there, they would change their
minds."
..Mr. Mohler hss Juit , returned from a
month's vacation In European countries
and elnce Ms business, when at home, la
to look after a bin railroad system, he
paid mnVe or Iras attention to the operation
nf mil tines on the Kuropean aide of th
Atlantic:
"Listen to thla extract from the I'arls
edition of the New York Herald for Dec.
17'Two French trains came Into collision
at f'ort-Hou yesterday owing to a s!(,'nal
mal's error.' Doesn't that aound natural'.'
'hangs the name of that town and you can
find tl.c eamo thing over here, lxioks like
European signalmen can make errors JuBt
Ilka American signalmen, don't It?
Train Wreck era Thrrr, Too.
"Hare's another from the nme issue ot
that paper. 'Traces of a massive stone
which had been placed on the line were
rlearlv visible.' Shows they have train j
wreckers m r thcra Just like we do here.
"Here's an article In the Ixtndon Mall of
Dec. 6, telling of a wreck on the great Lon
don & Northwestern Line In which two
passengers were killed and forty Injuied:
Krakes' .refused to work.' Bounds Just like
an American accident and shows that Kng
l.sh brakes are sometimes at fault Just like
ours are."
" 'At that time.' Bays the article, 'many
passer Kris were standing In the aisles of j
the wrecked coaches." Doesn't that sound j
natural'.'-I guess English trains are some-j
times crowded, too. ' j
"We.' on this side of the water, have i
been taught that when a passenger is
killed in England, the party responsible!
for the accident' Is promptly punished, but
thla article makes no mention of an
arrest.
"And here's a description In right lines
of a wreck of an express train at Ar
hanata. France, In which a number were
killed. An American editor would have
played that for ' a double column, ure.
Cause of that wreck, 'Fog.' We can dup
licate that over here, can't we?
"Mere s the London Standard telling of
a complete tie-up of the Great Western
main line, for several hours, because the
trucks on a freight car Jumped the track.
Ever hear of an accident of that kind over
here?
Have tirade Crossings.
"And here s the I'arls New York Herald
of December 2i tolling of an express train
dashing . onto a grade crossing, striking a
wagon, killing U passengers and Injuring
three. 80 they must have grade crossings
over there and Flench engineers and French
farmers are Just like .American engineers
and American farmers.
"The same paper, on December 15, con
tained an article 'roasting' the Western
State railway of France, owned by the
government, which 'possesses an unenvi
able and long-stunillng reputation for fre
quent accidents, la tencss of trains and gen
eral discomfort and disorganisation.' the
tirade being called out by a complete tie-up
of the road one evening Just at It busiest
hour because of the derailment of a freight
train.
"Here Is the Christmas Issue of the Paris
New York IlersJA with half Its front page
filled with photos and a story of a bad
wreck at Montereau, France. An express
train collided with a milk train. Result,
three killed, forty-nine Injured. 'The ex
pirees was late and running sixty miles an
hour.' (Don't that phrase sound like an
American' reporter?) It 'was biting cold
and three hours elapsed before help ar
rived. ' .
"Right below the big Montereau accident,
In the saiue paper, you see an account of a
wreck of an express near Bordeaux In
which four were killed and forty-one Injured.
"And here's the London Mall of January 1
( with an account of a wreck near Cape
Town In which eighteen were killed and
thirty-four injured.-.
"Theae all go, to show that they have
railroad accldenta In Kurope Just aa often
as over here and, I believe, a great deal
more so. .''ou a-e, the- wrecks I have men
tioned were chronicled In papers printed In
English, and nil took place within thirty
days. How many more were printed In
' French, German. Spanish. Italian, Swiss.
Austrian and other languages. I don't
know. I had to stick to English news
papers and these wrecks and accidents
came directly to my attention.
"The next time an) body tells you they
don't have wrecks In Europe, tell him you
know better.. Tell him you know they do,
but that the news, not being of direct In
terest over here, Is not 'played up' like the !
American wretss are."

The Proper Time for aV oman
to Get a Genuine Bargain
"It's difficult to know when to buy," a custimer in
our Women's Department said Saturday. "Some stores
constantly advertise reductions without giving n reason;
other give a reason, but I'm in doubt whether I'd better
buy now at a saving n style I may not want next season,
or wait and pay more money."
We believe the stores that overlook reason may bo
forgotten profitably at the outset.
As to buying at a season's close, where legitimate
clearance brings legitimate reductions, that, too, is a ques
tion of the store. Suits or Coats built on lines that won't
survive a season's fancy are certainly not good bargains.
But garments of taste and refinement, well made of
dependable character, are never out of place and are a
good investment.
SEE THESE FOR AN EXAMPLE:
All our Hand Tailored Suits, worth to $I,YOO now 915.00
All our Pony Coats, now an Investment at OXK-THIKI OKI'
All our AVool and Voile Dress Skirts, now at HALF PKICE
