EE- In another column will be
found an account of another large fire
in the city of Chicago in which ten
persons lost their lives. The fire broke
out at fifteen minutes before three
o'clock in two story frame building
on South Wells street, between Van
Buren, and Quincy streets. This build
ing together with the adjoining one
was entirely consumed, Loss about
three thousand dollars. In addition
to the ten persons known to have been
lost three more are missing and suppos-
cd to have been burnt. This is the sec
ond fire in Chicago within a year,
which has resulted in large loss Of
life.

Can no remedy be devised for Rail Road
SlaughterP

Once again the oft mootcd question;
Is there no way to prevent the con-
tinual occurrence of these terrible Rail
Road accidents ?" is forced upon the at
tcntion of the country. An opulcnt
Rail Road company, filling the pockets
of its rich stock holders by magnificent
scmi-annual dividends, advcrtscs to the
world that it is prepared to carry pas
sengers on its we'll constructed road
from Buffalo to Albany, for the sum of
eight dollars. Relyingupon these rep
reservations and upon the high char
actcr of the officers. .of the company,
men, women and children pay their
money and scat themselves in the
train-the whistle sounds-the bell
r;ngs-the Gall aboard" of the conduc
tor is heard and away flies the train
at the speed Of the wind. On they
90, humming along the smooth grades,
rafting over causeways-a rumbiing
sound is heard, indicating that bridge
is beneath thcm-a crash-a few short
piercing shrieks-a dull heavy sound
"a jar, and the shattered train lies in
the stream below. A moment of
death like silence interyenes-and the
cries Of the wounded then break upon
the car-the dull moans of the dying
arc heard-thc CHASTITY faces of the
dead lookout from among the ruins, and
parts of shattered corpscs lie th,ckly
strcw about thcsccnc ofthe wreck. Ten,
twenty, thirty persons in the full
strength of life and hope, have been,
without moments warning, hurried in
to eternity, and as many more manned
for life. The telegraph spreads the news
from one end Of the land to the other,
the press announces Terrific Raj
Road Accident" in large capitals ant
the people with shocked faces reads
the horrible details. Then comes the
hurried arrival of friends and relatives
at the scene Of the disaster. The shat
cred corpses lie in CHASTITY array
, in the dead house. A father
raises from the face of one after
another, the white cloths with which
they are decently covered, in search
for the features Of a son-a son with
agonized counternance searches for the
remains Of father, and = wife with
the quick instinct of love, at once rec.
tegnizes the corpse of her husband
Spectators stand sadly by, with uncov.
, cred heads and ever and anon wipe Z
, ! sympathising team from their syes.
Daily Iowa State Democrat. [volume] (Davenport, Iowa) 1856-1859, 1858-05-20

Then the law stretches forth its arm,
acoroncr's jury is summoned, a solemn
inquest is held in the presence OF the
dead and a verdict is returned that the
accident was caused "by the breaking
Of bridge, the timbers of which we're
worm eaten and rotten" and that gin
the opinion Of the jury the unsafe con-
dition of the bridge was known to the
officers of the company" Again the
telegraPhic dispatch goes forth carry
ing the news Of the death Of the last
victim OF the Railroad disastcr-the
people rcad-the. busy world huns on
again and the matter Is forgotten.
Suits are brought by the manned for
damages, and at the end Of years when
the actions have been tried, appealed,
retired, and again appealed, barely snf-
ficicnt is recovered to pay attorneys
fees. Some grand jury perhaps finds
an indictment against the officers of the
company but tile courts can find no
law by which they can be punished,
or by some legal bubble, they arc dis
charged There ends the matter-the
people in the multiplicity Of their cares
have forgotten t and the remembrance
of the accident lives only in the homes
and firesidcs which it dcsolatcd. The
legislature when it conycncs Is SO in
tently engaged upon securing the spoils
that the law is not changed and the
necessity for it is not thought of until
some new accident calls it again to the
recollection. Let proceedings be taken
at the earliest possible moment to Sc
cure the passage of law in each State
in the Union, for the protection of the
lives of the travelling public. Let us
bear of no more accidents caused by
criminal carelcssness in which the law
can find no one to hold responsible. II
no other way can be devised, let it be
made imperative upon all Railroad
Companies to employ suitable num-
Der of qualified persons whose sole
business it shall be to examine all sec.
tions Of the road with care, and to rem
edy at once, all impcriections in tho
bridges or any other parts Of the struc
turc.
