A WILD TRAIN.
Nine Cars Tear Across Eighth Street
and Do Damage.

Switch engine No. IS, on the
Cotton Belt road, backed a long
train of heavily loaded freight cars
onthe switch beyond Twelfth street
last night. Coming down toward
Eighth street, the terminus of the
switen, the engiI e began TO slow
up, when coupling broke, and
nine cars, released from the engine,
kept right on.
They broke down the obstruction
1t the eud of the track, tore down
an electric street car pole at the
edge Of the sidewalk, and kept
right on across the street. Striking
the sidewalk on the east side of the
street, it smashed the curbstone,
and tore down another pole, throw
ing it with such force against the
wood and iron awning in front Of
G.. B. Struckels fruit store as to
smash it down.
Then the momentum gave out
aud the cars stopped.
No very heavy damage was done,
the greatest being to the care,
and workmen have about finished
the necessary repairs.
Heavy banks of dirt have been
thrown up a. the ends of all the
switches on Eighth street to pre-
vent a recurrence of the accide 1T,
viii n might have been much more
serious.

The Aqueduct Bridge Piers.
he Editor of The Evening Star:

To the Editor OF The Evening Star:
The STAR Of last evening contained report
from the District Commissioners in favor of
granting the use Of the piers OF the Aqueduct
bridge to the Arlington Railroad Company
This company proposes to build on the west
end of said piers on q level with their top, some
twenty feet below the roadway of the present
superstructure. Not one word is said about
the condition Of pier No. 6, one of the two main
piers, which stands in the center Of
the main channel the most exposed to
foods and ice gorges, Of all the piers. This is
most remarkable in view of the fact that the
Commissioners in their annual report for the
year ending June 80. 1889. used the following
language in regard to said pier, to wit:
'Pier No. 6-At northwest nose there IL q
large cavity where the masonry has fallen down
northward. SO that a man can walk under the
overhang Of the pier"
As the Arlington Railroad Company proposes
to use the west end OF these piers for their
tracks. the cars relying for support largely
upon this main pier, with cavity right under
1t. II the Commissioners are to be believed,
large enough for q man to walk under the over
hang, this omission to make any mention Of the
condition Of this pier or to recommend that it
be repaired and made safe for the burden IL
Will have 10 carry IL al the more remarkable.
II there is cavity under the west end Of
this pier large enough for . man to walk under
the overhang then what prevents the overhang
from falling down? And how can the west end
OF this pier, which. according to the Commits
sioners, rests on nothing, be expected to stand
under the weight Of railroad cars travelling
over 1t loaded with passengers? VIII the Com
missioners please answer this question?
