CARLISLE RAILWAY STATION.
The Commissioners Recommend it's
Removal. for Reasons Given.


Removal, for Rea sons Given.
The railroad commissioners yesterday
gave decision on the petition from citizens
of Carlisle station on the line Of the St.
Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba railway, for
a removal of the station from its present
location to point on the Breckenridge
state road. The commission recommends
the removal. They say that the present
site is upon land formerly owned by Peter
Maurin of Elizabeth and NJ. Maurin of
Cold Springs, these two men having plated
the village. The owners, the commission
Frs say. have refused to sell lots TO parties
desiring to locate there, or have held up
prices so high as to prevent anyone from
purchasing, so that in five years there has
no settlement grown up. These same men
own an elevator there and have compelled
farmers to take their wheat tickets to
the town of Elizabeth before they
could learn the price to be paid per bushel.
or get their. money for it, as there was no
competition. Pillsbury & Hurlburt once
had an elevator there, but owing to the pc
euliarities Of the place discontinued business
and pulled down the elevator in 1888. The
business tributary TO Carlisle comes from
the north and west, and is forced to 90 out
of the most direct course a mile and half
to reach the present station. Judging from
the testimony of the people living in the Vi
cnity, the policy of those controlling the
affairs of the station has been not to permit
business to establish itself at Carlisle, and
the commissioners are unanimous in the
conviction that the inhabitants have suffered
loss and great Inconvenience by this policy,
and have been deprived of the fa-
cilities to which they are emit
tied by the railway company.
1t is the wish of the greater part of the resi-
dents of the place that the change be made,
and site has been offered gratis and the
persons interested have offered to donate
work with men and teams, if the company
will arrange so that they can do the work
prior to July 10. The commission believes
that the company, in locating at Carlisle.
was misled by interested parties as to the
actual situation. and that the present loca-
ton is no more in the interests of the rail-
road than in that of the residents to be
served. Accordingly, the commission recon-
mends that the st. Paul, Minneapolis q
Manitoba company cause the station build
ing to be moved one and a-half miles to the
northwest, and there construct side-tracl
and maintain the usual facilities common t.
stations of the class.

STEAMBOAT COLLISION

A steamboat collision took place
on Tuesday Of last week, ten miles
from Victoria, between the steam
crs r. p. Rithet and Enterprise.
The Rthet struck the Enterprise
forward of the wheel, and stove in
her side. Several lives were lost,
and many were injured by flying
debris. There was the greatest
alarm on both steamers. Many
Jumped overheard, and were aiter>
wards picked up by the boats The
mails, 100 passengers, % head OF
cattle and large amount of treas
ure were On the Enterprise. The state
ments of the passengers describe
fearful scene of panic. Women and
children were screaming and pray
ing, strong men wringing their
hands and shouting and Chinese and
Indians Jabbering. The din, hight>
oned by the escaping steam from
both steamers, was deafenlng.
The Rithet's boats could not be
lowered. Better luck attended the
Enterprises boats, all but one OF
which were lowered. One, a met
allie Iife- boat had been stoye. 1t
was kept afloat by ba'ling and saw
ed several lives. About 20 passen-
gers jumped overheard, and clung
TO bales of floating debris from the
Enterprise, which was stove from
her bows to the wheelhouse. The
st ersmen of the Enterprise had an
arm and two ribs broken, but he
cluny to tho wheel till forced away
and placed in a boat.
When the boats were lowered the
Chinese made a rush and got into
them. Refusing to come out when
ordered to make room for the ladies,
they were pitched out head over
heels. The whttemen passengers
acted bravely, refusing to enter the
boats until all the women were safe.
The Chinese attempted corner in
life preservers, and some put on
two or three, which they after>
wards surrendered on demand.
The wreck of the steamer Enterprise
was hauled into Cadboro Bay dur.
ing the night. The mails, express
and treasure were recovered this
morning. Only two Cinnamon are
repor tod lost. The steamer is ut
terly ruined, ard "a dead loss to the
company who were their own In
surers. The en- terprise was built
in 1860 to run between San Fran
cisco and Stockton and was after
wards sold to the Hudson Bay COM

Canadian Pacific Navigation com-
pany at the time of the disaster, and
