WRECK ON TIE FITCHBURG.
: Miracle That Moro Lives Were Not


BosToN, Sept. 12-Furthcr particu-
lars OF the wreck on the Fitohbur- rail
road Saturday night state that when
the freight engine struck the rear pas
sengcr ear the pilot and cylinder boxes
Of the freight engine were pplSed under
Meath the forward trucI- OF tine rear pas
scngcr car. which made II almost inn
possible for any human being 90
escape without injury who oc-
cupied seats in that car. On tho
rear end Of the ii!-fatcd car mans
legs were dangling, the trunk being
found quarter of mile down the
track. The prevailing IN prrssioH wa
that il was u tramp stealing ride on
the pilot of the freight engine or tucked
away on the rear truck Of the passenger
car.
The rear brakeman OF the passenger
train, VINO shortly before the accident
was sent back about coo feet TO notify
the engineer of the freight train of
danger ahead, states that he went
back as directed and siSnalcd the
freight train, and his signal was
answered by two whistles. which is
the usual answer that all signals have
been seen and noted. The reason for
the collision ne feels sure, was that the
engineer of the freight train could not
control his train, which was OF thirty
ears, the greater part Of them contain
ing lumber, all very heavy.
just at the point where the accident
happened there Is - straight stretch of
track nearly mile long, ana un Ter
ordinary circumstances the rear light,

at the time. made it impossible to see
the most brilliant light even 4 quarter
of a mile.

$69, 200 on 90 applications or an aver
age of $4,000 apiece. This rate of
going is simply appalling. In many
cases, the reductions are over 30 per
cent, ard % per cent. is a frequent
figure. The average sustains the rate
of 10 1-2 per cent. established by the
former batch of reductions.
We believe the Commission is not
going to take time to cut all the
assessments in the city. 1t is going to
stop work within a month-when all
the rich men in the city have had
their spoonful of pap. But if they
took time and covered the whole
assessment, they would, to be consist
ent, have to cut about $40, 500, 900 off
the total assessment. The would
plunge the city into i~rredeemable
bankruptcy.
