II the Editor OF the Press:
Were it not for the fact that no man ever
refuses to sign petition when presented 10
him, regardless of its object, it would be
matter of surprise that petitions in favor Vi
granting a charter TO the Boston % Maine
Railroad Company, to build line pararell to
the P. S. & P. Road and within few miles OF
it. from Portland to South Berwick, should
receive the signature of any considerable
number of The citizens of Portland. What is
the object OF the B. & M. Co. in asking this
charter and what wouldbe the result if grant
ed? The object is undoubtedly to drive the
p. S. d. +. Road into renewal of the lease
of their Road IT, the Boston & Maine and
eastern Roads, on terms to be dictated by the
Is. d nj. That there is any intention of build.
ing the proposed line so near to one already
IN operation, and adequate to do double the
business which offers, is simply ridiculous.
The charter is not asked in order to increase
railway facilities between Portland and Bos
ton, but to control and consolidate into mo.
nopOly lines already existing. The effect OF
granting such charter would be to strike a
fatal blow to railway enterprises, and to des-
troy confidence in railway securities in our
State.
Who will be found to engage in railway en-
terprises or invest in railway securities if as
soon as line became Iemuncrative and While
it is performing in good faith all the condition
of its charter and all its obligations to the
public. another road with which it connects
outside of the State can by aid of the legisla
ture of our State coerce it into virtual sur.
render OF all its acquired rights? Would not
the granting OF the charter now asked by the
Boston and Maine-which is to be used. not tc
build road, but to enable one Railroad Cor
poration to control another Railroad Corpor
ation-be an abuse OF power by the Legisla
ture?
Granting the charter asked, would result in
consolidating and making monopoly OF ex-
isting lines. Refusing it would result in con
tinued competition with a new line via of AL
fred and South Berwick.

TERRIBLE RAILROAD DISASTER


Cur IN rned and a Numbcr Of Lives Lost
A terrible disaster occurred on the Hudson
River railroad Monday night. An axle of the
oil train bound South broke when passing New
Hamburg and dragged along the ground till it
reached the draw bridge, when striking the
timbers it threw the car off its truck and upon
the up track in face of the second Pacific ex-
press train, which left New York at 8 oclock
p. M. An attempt was made 20 stop the ex-
press train, which was then approaching, but
there was not time enough, and it struck the
oil car, scattering the fragments in every direc-
ton and at once ignited, enveloping the entire
train in flames. The express train was COM
posed of locomotive, one baggage car, one ex-
press car, and five or six sleeping cars. The
locomotive was at once hurled into the river,
and the engineer Filled and the baggage and
express cars were piled on top the engine.
At the same time the Chicago sleeping car
was one sheet of flame, and though desperate
attempts were made to rescue the passengers it
is said that not one got out alive. Two other
sleeping cars next to it were also wrapped in
flames, but the passengers in them all got out
safely. The bridge then took fire, and in less
than ten minutes afterw ards the whole struct-

burying in and its inmates out of sight under
water and among the ruins of the locomotive
and express cars. This terrible result settled
all results as to the probability of rescuing any
one dead or alive, and there was nothing done
until daylight.
The body of Vosburgh, the sleeping car con-
ducIor, was found, and list of his passengers
found on him. 1t only gives the surnames,
which are as follows: Lowell, Lowler, Pease,
Carey, Sorhish, Germanuel, Nancreade, Ros-
enthral, Ferbush-eleven in all. This list tai
lies with the number pronounced missing by
conductor Charles Cossum. All but eleven
holders of tickets have responded. The former
Hudson River railroad engineer, named Ed
ward Bartlett, is among the missing. He was
reading ia the baggage car. One lady was
found with babe in her arms. All three of
the destroyed cars were Wagner cars 1t is
impossible to give the full names as yet except
that of DR.. Nancreade of New York, whose
head was partially burned. Rev. DR.. Deems
and wife were not passengers on the Inflated
train. The latest found body has been identi-
fled as that of Mrs. Pearce, who belongs to a
respectable family in Buffalo. Men are busily
employed in drawing away the half burned
rafters aud stringers of the bridge. Upon the
ice near the wreck a body was found with the
entrails torn out and the head and legs crush
ed. 1t has not been identified.
Nineteen bodies have been recovered, four
teen of which are those of passengers, includ-
ing three children and five employees of the
road. Search will be continued, although it is
thought all have been recovered

WILBUR G. ANDREWS, who was killed at

WILBUR G. ANDREWS. who was killed at
the Biddeford depot last Monday afternoon
was an employee of the P. S. & P. railroad
company, and the accident by which he lost
his life happened substantially as follows
While the o'clock P. NJ, train from Portland
was approaching the Biddeford depot, he start
ed to roll platform truck containing some
baggage and sewing machine to the place
where the car usually stopped. By some means
the sewing machine slipped off the truck and
fell upon the track. Young Andrews imme-
diately stepped off to throw it back, but before
be succeeded the train struck the truck and
whrled it round so that it struck him in some
way and threw him back between the track
ard platform. The train did not pass over bis
body but some part of the eng. me struck his
| head and nearly severed one arm from his body
When taken up he was utterly unconscious
| and survived but few moments. He was the
eldest son of Hon. Leonard Andrews, was
about "a years of age and leaves widow and
| one child. His wife was the daughter of the
| Judge William Berry of Biddeford
He was young man of slngularyly correct
habits and was highly esteemed by all who
knew him. The news of his sudden deatt
! caused universal sadness in Biddeford and the
entire community sympathizes with his fam
ly in their bereavement. A few weeks before
his death he procured an insurance of $1,000
| upon his life.
