Hefner and Dyer Not to
Assume Arbitrary Stand,
In Aftermath of
Crossing Wreck.
Elimination of . dangerous grade
crossings la a popular toplo for con
sideration since the accident at Me
Llsh avenue Friday night according
to statements of City Manager Dyer
and Mayor Ileffner, and they are
going to take action as soon as the
tueslion of tito best manner of pro1
coedure Is determined upon to have;
I he menace removed.
Both mayor and manager do not
wish to take any step that will seem
abritrary, they say, but they are de
termined to protect the lives of the
people who are compelled to cross
these dangerous places if possible.
The question does not confine User.
to the McLlsh avenue crossing of the
Ringling road, but will embrace
every railroad crossing in the city
where an accident is likely to occur.
The mayor called, attention to a
subject covering this question that
will be discussed at the 13th annual
good roads show to be held in Chi
cago, January 16 to 20, which In.
part is as follows: "The grade
crossing menace is a grave one, and
enc that will receive more than
rassing attention at the meeting,"
he said.
, "Out of the 12,000 persona killed on
tlie highways of the country last year,
7,000 were struck down at grade
crossings. Investigation has shown
ulso that one motorist in every three
l careless at grade . crossings, ap
proaching the tracks at reckless
speed, and without taking due notice
ol approaching trains.
"In 970 cares In which motorists
ran in front of the trains, 136 per
sons were killed and 405 were in
jured. In 4S0 cases motor cars were
stalled on the crossing and were de
molished, and forty-three cars actual
ly collided with the danger .signals.
'An investigation conducted recent
ly demonstrated Dint most highway
Accidents occur on , long stretches of
road instead of on thuj curve, and
rre due to speeding and reckless driv
ir.jc rather than to skidding."
The mayor and manager think thai
drivers kIiouI 1 ho cautious, as well a
the employees who operate the train,
hut the danger of the grade crossing
:i ever present and with a propei
cate or guard, would eliminate future
tntalitiua in Ardmore.

hearing from relatives in the west.
Meanwhile the body of the former
senator, encased in a metallic coffin,
covered with purple cpth, lay in his
bachelor homo here. No crepe or
flowers marked the presence of death

front a sick led, he had conferred by
telephone with national republican
leaders at Chicago convention which
