Excerpt from A Treatise on Street Railway Accident Law The recent development of our American street railway system has been little short of marvelous. Today our country is covered with hundreds and thousands of miles of track, designed for the use of horse, electric, and cable cars, dummy lines, and elevated trains. Great as have been the advantages attending the extension of the system, corresponding defects have not been lacking, and the appalling number of street railway accidents, instead of growing less year by year, as the public becomes more and more familiar with the dangers attending the operation of street cars, seems, on the contrary, to be steadily increasing. It is perhaps hardly necessary to add that these accidents are a most prolific source of litigation. Believing that the tendency of the present day is towards specialization and concentration, the author, in 1902, published a book on the Street Railway Accident Law of Massachusetts. The kind reception accorded this work by the bench and bar has led to the production of the present volume, dealing with the street railway accident law of the entire country. The author has endeavored to make thoroughness and system his watchwords. Every volume of the United States and state reports has been carefully searched, and the eases thus collected have been examined and classified with the most painstaking thoroughness.
