Book excerpt: Excerpt from Labor Conditions and Wages in and Railway, Motor and Wagon Transportation Services in Cleveland Services in Cleveland Among the activities which are inextricably woven into the fabric of city life there is none which comes into closer touch with the life of the average citizen than street car transportation. Although little more than half a century old it has had a more rapid expansion than most industries stretching over the same period of time. Especially noteworthy has been its growth and development since 1900. The street railroad companies of the United States, which in 1902 employed over 140,000 persons had by 1907, increased this number to 221,000; and during the next half decade continued to expand, until their employees in 1912 numbered over 282,000 persons. One representative feature of the growth of street car transportation is that it has confined itself largely to the populous states. Ohio, with its large number of manufacturing cities, has far more street car lines than Texas which is largely agricultural. On the basis of the number of employees in the industry, Ohio is surpassed only by New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and Illinois. In the order named, these states held the same relative positions in both 1902 and in 1912. The proportion which Ohio's street railway employees formed of the total number employed in the United States as a whole, increased from 7.1 per cent in the former year to 7.5 per cent in the latter. In actual numbers the increase was more marked, the number employed in 1912 being 21,245 as against 9,451 in 1912, an increase of approximately 125 per cent. As the city of Cleveland far outstrips in population other cities in Ohio, it follows naturally that its street car system employs the greatest number of men. At the close of the year 1915 there were employed in this service approximately 2,500 platform men who were almost evenly divided, there being 50.6 per cent for motormen as against 49.4 per cent for conductors. Owing to the use of "trailers" it might naturally be supposed that conductors would form the larger group, but that they do not is explained by the fact that during certain hours of the day motormen serve as conductors on trailer cars. These platform crews operated 1,445 revenue paying cars over a system of 360 miles of track, and collected over 242,000,000 revenue fares during the year, for which they were paid an aggregate amount of $2,100,000 in wages. Wages formed the heaviest item of expense in street car transportation, and of a car mile expense of 12.6 cents, 6.6 cents, or more than one half was spent on them.

Book excerpt: Co-Winner of the 2005 Hagley Business History Book Prize given by the Busines History Conference. In 1926, the Carriage Builders' National Association met for the last time, signaling the automobile's final triumph over the horse-drawn carriage. Only a decade earlier, carriages and wagons were still a common sight on every Main Street in America. In the previous century, carriage-building had been one of the largest and most dynamic industries in the country. In this sweeping study of a forgotten trade, Thomas A. Kinney extends our understanding of nineteenth-century American industrialization far beyond the steel mill and railroad. The legendary Studebaker Brothers Manufacturing Company in 1880 produced a hundred wagons a day—one every six minutes. Across the country, smaller factories fashioned vast quantities of buggies, farm wagons, and luxury carriages. Today, if we think of carriage and wagon at all, we assume it merely foreshadowed the automobile industry. Yet., the carriage industry epitomized a batch-work approach to production that flourished for decades. Contradicting the model of industrial development in which hand tools, small firms, and individual craftsmanship simply gave way to mechanized factories, the carriage industry successfully employed small-scale business and manufacturing practices throughout its history. The Carriage Trade traces the rise and fall of this heterogeneous industry, from the pre-industrial shop system to the coming of the automobile, using as case studies Studebaker, the New York–based luxury carriage-maker Brewsters, and dozens of smallerfirms from around the country. Kinney also explores the experiences of the carriage and wagon worker over the life of the industry. Deeply researched and strikingly original, this study contributes a vivid chapter to the story of America's industrial revolution.
