An effort is being made to prevent, by
legislative or executive means, the great
consolidation of Northwestern railroad
finances which has recently been form
ed under the name of the Northern
Securities company, and which has a cap
talization of $500 900. Gov. Van SAINT of
Minnesota has taken the position that
the merger of interests is a violation of
the antitrust laws of his state, and has
issued an invitation to the governors of
several other states in the Northwest,
recommending common action against
the new corporation. The incorporators
of the Northern Securities company have
caused the public to be informed that
nothing in the charter or purposes of the
corporation violates the laws of any of
the states In which the railroads con-
trolled by 1t are located. 1t is likely that
Minnesota will not abandon the position
that 1t has taken in the matter; but the
governors of most of the states con-
cerned have not taken avery lively inter
est In Gov. Van SAINTS invitation, and 1t
is not probable that the movement
against the great railroad reorganization
will become general.

F. w. Pierce Of Chester In the Awful
Wreck in Seneca, Mich.

F. w. Pierce, president Of the Chester
savings bank, was a passenger who went
through the big railroad wreck at SEN
eca, Mich, in which 70 lives were lost
Nov. q. Mr.. Pierce, who was returning
from a business trip to the northwest,
was eating in the dining car when the
two trains came together head on. He
says the first crash sounded like the re-
port of a cannon. He was thrown vio-
lently against the table. After the first
shock came crushing, grinding sound,
and suddenly the front of the dining car
was crushed and Mr.. Smith saw pair
of human legs dangling between the two
cars. On escaping from the rear door
Mr.. Pierce found that the day coach,
containing about thirty passengers, which
was between the dining car and a com
bination car next to the engine had been
telescoped completely, and the combina-
ton coach had burst through the front
of the dining car. The legs were those
of the porter who was on the platform
and who was crushed to death. Mr..
Pierce found Engineer Parks of the west
bound train trying to bind a tourniquet of
willow sticks about his leg, which was
badly injured.
Mr.. Pierce says: at was almost impos-
sible to see, and the air was full of cries
for help from those caught beneath the
wreckage, or otherwise injured. The
west-bound coaches, however, soon
caught fire, and lighted up the entire
countryside. The shrieks of those VINO
could not escape were soon stilled, and
before morning the burning cars and
their contents were reduced to ashes"
Mr.. Pierce assisted Engineer Parks in
various ways. carried water to put out
small fire in the east-bound train and
helped rescue three women and one man
from the wreckage He worked with
few others until the officials arrived upon
the scene.

Not a "Rube."
North Adams Transcript

$1,000
No one who knows them at first hand
will be apt to say that the Vermonter is
"Rube" when 1t comes to business
matters, and as for other qualities such
a discussion as that now being INDUCED
in by the papers of Vermont is evidently
merely offering an excuse to say nice
things about ones self. Vermonters are
perfectly satisfied with themselves. In
the gold brick game of life they have
held their end up with the rest of the
world. When there is anything they
want they usually get 1t, and get 1t hon
estly in more cases than do the majority
of human beings. When there is any
thing IA be said they know how to say It
and when they have said 1t they know
enough No stop. And when new ideas are
needed by the city, Vermont usually has
one tucked away in the folds of its
mountainous surface, ready to be put on
the market at the opportune moment.
No, there are no bars TO the proper self
esteem of the Green Mountain state.

The report of the life saving service
shows that during the past year that
service kept up its usual good record in
the salvage of property from wrecks, and
rather exceeded 1t in the saving of life
only one life having been lost to every
4S casualties, while the average for the
past rs years is one life to every thirteen
casualties. The value of the property
saved was $6,4OSO35; while only $94S, 965
was lost, a showing which would warrant
Congress In giving the service better
support and encouragement than it has
received heretofore.

spotter Called on Officers for Pro-

A crowd gathered around the Junction
House at White River Junction Monday
evening and threatened violence to s.
d. Waite of Cambridge Mass, an alleged
spotter, working through the county to
get evidence against persons for violating
the prohibitory law, gambling and other
offenses Waite was alarmed and tele-
phoned to officers Bruce and Davis Of
Norwich for protection. They came on
and took him to Woodstock. Consider
able excitement prevailed Waite is said
to have been informer in several cases
where officers recently raided and made
arrests in Windsor county.

Col. Kimbars Offer Of a Library Ac
cepted.

At the special town meeting held at
Randolph Saturday to consider the
matter of accepting the gift of a
$4,000 library building from Col. Robert
j. Kimball. and a site on Main street
bought by the village district and offered
to the town, a unanimous vote was taken
to accept both gifts.
There was only good feeling shown
among the voters, and gratitude to Col.
Kimball. who will probably come to Ran
dolph this week with an architect from
Lowell, Mass, to begin preparations for
the work Col. Kimball plans to have
the library completed and dedicated in
autumn of next year.
