Killed at the Arctic Railroad
Grade Crossing.
New England Train Struck a Buggy
With Three Occupants.
Maggie Mcclure Killed and Her
Companions Terribly Injured.

The grade crossing at Arctic on the
New York & New England Railroad was
the sceno OF the seventh and most terrible
accident that has occarred there since the
station was built.
The express, which is scheduled to leave
Centerville at S:43 was 10 minutes late,
and was coming at full speed down grade,
around the curve near Arctic station. A
buggy coming trop Arctic Center and
containing Miss Maggie Mcclure, her
brother William and a driver, Peter
Verrier, had almost crossed the track
when the engine struck the carriage and
knocked 1t ten yards to the left OF the
track and the horse 10 the right.
Some persons who were about the sta
tion at the time ran TO the spot and found
Miss Mcclure terribly crushed and
bruised. Thv French boys right leg was
broken between the ankle and knee.
William Mcclure received two deep
gashes on the forehead and a severe bruise
upon the knee.
William is accustomed to 60 TO night
school at his brother in law &, ,John Deer
ing at Arctic Center, and last night his
sister accompanied him, making arrange
ments for young Nerrier TO meet them
and drive them nome.
Miss Mcclure was on the right side of
the buggy and hence received the full
force OF the shock.
When they approached the crossing
Mcclure struck the horse with the whip,
The train was upon them before any OF
them saw or heard IL. Conductor Gard
ner said whistle was blown before reach
ing the station. The young lady's neck
was broken and she died a few minutes
after muttering, "Oh, my Godl"
An electric car was pressed into service
and brought DIR. a. q. Sprague TO the
scene. Meanwhile Drs. Legis and Smith
were sent for. Conductor Gardner BAN
daged Verrier's leg, preventing 1t from
bleeding, and removed him to the train.
nj ISIS Mcduire's body was removed TO her
brother Thomas's house, while William
was carried 10 mis- fathers residence. Dr.
Fi.ield thought there was no need OF an
inquest, but this morning Mr.. ID. l..
Dugan went intio Providence to see Attor-
ney- General Dubois.
Miss Maggie Mcguire was the youngest
child OF Thomas Mcclure and was very
much liked throughout this valley. The
accident was due to the fact that there
was no one to dag the train. John Nye,
the station agent, was at home at the
time. He told IHE NEWS reporter that
the former -superintendent OF the road
said that he could go home al 8 o'clock
every night.
M. Nye has been in his present posi-.
tion for three years and has always been
noted for his faithfulness. Besides selling
tickets IL has been his duty to close the
gates at one crossing and flag the train al
another.
The town of Warwick has frequently
asked the railroad TO keep mau there
whose sole work should be to guard the
crossing.
Young Verrier's right foot was ampu-
tated last night at the Rhode Island hos
pital. William Mcclure spent a night of
agony and was in precarious condition
this morning. The funeral of Miss Mag
gle Mcclure will take place from st.
James Church Thursday morning, a $3.50
O'Clock.

IN the group is a phaeton buggy drawn by

the phaeton and horse alleged to
have ben hired by Mrs. Chambers
and noticed where the unhappy woman
stood when she engaged the team. Then

started on their long journey in aheavy
snow storm.
The Night at the Court House.
The Jury spent the night at the Court
House in O comfortable manner. They
retired at 10:30 O'Clock and arose at
about 7. They were in charge
OF Deputy Gardiner. The jurors
meals are furnished from the Central
Hotel. Keegan's food is also obtained
there. and he Is allowed to order what
ever he wishes.
He passed last evening quietly under
the charge of officers Rabbit and Barrows
and the court attendants say that he Is
model prisoner. IL was not deemed neces-
sary to handcuf him today and, but for
the officers accompanying him, no one
would have though that he was priso-
ner.
Keegan's Confidence.
Keegan's confidence in his ultimate ac-
quittal has not in the least abated since
the opening OF the trial He has not an air
of bravado which criminals often exhibit
but rather the appearance of man
who relies on acquittal because he
understands the strength OF
his defense. The accused mans
counsel also share their clients hopeful
ness, and today expressed Themselves
more confident than ever that within
week Keegan will be free man.
Yesterdays Proceedings.
Contrary to expectations of both prose-
cution and defense the State introduced a
