says that recently developed facts, and
the sober deliberate opinions of those

bridge disaster, on Friday of last week, at
Westport, the adjoining town, and but four or
five miles; from the memorable disaster at Nor

The last Drawbridge accident was on the
New Haven Railroad at Westport. On the
night of August 9th, locomotive and nine
cars ran off the bridge and plunged through
the open draw into the water They were
smashed crushed and "telescopcd." and the
train made a perfect wreck 1t was however

of it Had it been the passenger train prc-
cceding, or the one succeeding this freirht
train, there would have been loss of life and
limb, probably greater than has ever occurred
by one railroad accident And of course the
accident was as liable TO occur to passenger
as 10 freight train, and more So because they
run much more frequently. The draw-tender
