the conductors of the trains were free from al
blame in the matter If the language employed IN
setting forth this opinion, warranted the inference
that nobody wan TO blame, it was certainly more
than we intended. The article subsequently quo

which was duly published in the Dispatch we are
not prepared to combat. but wepreiet 70 a"ah an

The Dispatch has no personal Interests IN the
