MAKES TRAVELING SAFER Effect of Safety Appliance Shown in Less Union Pacific Accidents. OMAHA. Neb., Dec. 18. (Special.) That safety devices save limbs and lives is demonstrated by the casualty report of the Union Pacific Railroad. In spite of greatly increased traffic, the number of people killed and injured by the road during 1907 was 1209, as compared w'th 20!)7 In 1906. The report contains1 a list of the prin cipal train accidents of the year, with a statement of the causes and consequences in each case. Each wreck was investi gated by a special committee consisting of operating or other officials of the road, together with persons of promi nence, integrity and reputation living in the neighborhood of the accident. These men are selected in accordance with the policy of the road to secure an impar tial report on every train accident, and the placing of the blame where it rightly belongs. In all cases where an em ploye was found to have been guilty of negligence, or otherwise responsible for the accident, the guilty employe was dis charged. Approximately $2,000,000 has been ex pended by the Union Pacific during the year in the installation of safety elec tric block signal appliances for the pur pose of reducing the danger of accidents to the minimum. In addition immense sums have been expended in track better ment and maintenance. The management of the road expresses the belief that this expenditure has been justified by the great showing made in the reduction of th number of casualties. Four passengers. Including postal clerks and express messengers, were killed In 1907. as compared with five In 1906. The total number killed in all accidents on the system in 1907 was 105 and the number in jured 1104. as compared with 114 killed and 19S3 injured in 1906.

A pack age of imported sachet enclosed in every box. stock, Deputies voted unanimously In caucus today to oppose the treaty on the ground that certain stipulations there in set down .unduly limit the sover eignty of Belgium and disregard Bel gium's rights. As the Government had counted up-en Liberal support to pass the bill against the opposition of the Socialists and some Conservatives, there Is a prospect that the treaty will be withdrawn and that the Government will thereafter resign. A detailed study of the complete treaty. Including the Vox addenda, pro duces a very different impression from that which was obtained by the public from the rosy official forecast given out on July 6. It is pointed out that King Leopold retains powerful Inter ests In the crown domain, which is the richest and best part of the Congo, more especially through his Insistence that the rights of various foreign capi talists with Important concessions be maintained and recogniied by Belgium. Public opinion is strongly convinced that the treaty does not sufficiently recognize the rights of Belgium In the Congo. The action taken by the Liberals to day is interpreted in many quarters to. mean the doom of annexation and the probable fall of the Government.
