The mo of the North Shore train is at the crux of the situation â€"â€" he pilâ€" oted the train that caused the damage â€" he was responsible for its movements. But he can be held responsible for the accident only if jt is first determined that all possible precauâ€" tions, safety devices, and mechanical aids were at his disposal and maintained in operation to aid him in work. If it is found that any article of equipment, any a , signal, or automatic device for arresting the progress of trains through closed track blocks, is in existence, and was not in tion on the night of the laccident to aid the motorman, then sbciety is morally obligated to exonerate this man, and place the blame on those who direct the company which employs him. . While the ject of transportation is in our on the front of the papers, it might be well for of Highland Park to consider once more the type of tion with which they are being served. ~{ Why are two sets of tracks, and two separate servâ€" ices, running: by side into Chicago?
