Jacksonville Stage and Whitney's
Coupe Wrecked.

spectacular runaway took place on
Elliot street about II o'clock today,
when l.. l.. Whitney's coupe, the Jack
sonville stage and the horses attached
to each vehicle became almost mex
tricably entangled. Mr.. Whitney was
driving past the hook and ladder build
ing, when the sudden appearance of a
bicyclist scared one of his horses. The
horse jumped, breaking a tug. Mr..
Whitney pulled the horses up quickly,
which caused one of the lines to part.
The horses then started on a dead run
The stage stood crosswise of the road
in front of Abbott G. Ackerman's meat
market, the driver being in the market.
The coupe horses crashed into the
stage. which had canopy, and both
vehicles were overturned One of Mr..
Whitney's horses broke away and ran
up Main street. The other was thrown
by the force of the collision Mr.. Whit
new was under the wreck, but was not
badly hurt, escaping with a bruised hip
and slight cut on the head. The
stage horses were caught before they
had an opportunity to run. The stage
is a wreck. The front wheels were
torn off, the reach was broken, the
canopy was smashed. The street was
scattered with kindling. One side of
Mr.. Whitney's coupe was split and one
wheel crushed. The horses were not
hurt. A puppy, which was in a crate
in the stage, escaped without scratch

slNeLE-sPAN STEEL BRIDGE.
Committee Recommend That'one Be
Built on Present site-Estmated
Cost $4,000.

The resolution under which this
committee was appointed does not re-
quire of us an expression of opinion
or recommendation, yet as individuals
we take the liberty of making the fol-
lowing suggestions:
We realize that il is important and
desirable that the new bridge shall be
so constructed as to make 1t possible
that the railroad crossing may be
above the tracks, so that an electric
line or street railway may be built
extending from Brattleboro to Hins-
dale Independent of the steam railway
crossing at grade, because there can
be no grade crossing by a street rail-
way over a steam railroad without
permission of the state railroad COM
missioners. A grade crossing, we APP
prehend, would be vigorously opposed
by the railroad company, especially IL
the electric line was permitted to carry
freight. Surely the people of Brattle-
boro would be benefited by an electric
railway line to Hinsdale that had the
right to carry freight, as that would
give freight competition.
We are informed by our engineer
that q bridge can be so constructed
that it's roadway may, at any future
time, be raised at a small additional
expense, not to exceed $500 or $500;
therefore your committee take the lib
erty to suggest that it may be the best
way, at present, to construct a steel
bridge on the present site, with a sin
gle span (without centre pier), with
a 20-foot roadway and a 6-foot side
walk, strong enough for an electric
road to be operated across It; that the
new bridge be raised five or six feet
higher than the old one and in such a
manner that the bridge roadway
thereon may be raised at some future
time, if desirable, and make no change,
at present at the railroad crossing. A
steel bridge can be so constructed, in
Guiding abutments, as we understand,
for an amount not exceeding $50, 900
in all. and with a reasonable eXpecta-
ton that the bidders will go below this
amount if given ample time to do it..
We cannot recommend a bridge to
be located at the canning factory site
or at Walnut street, because of the
great expense.

tifcations Bill.

An unusual honor was conferred up
on Representative Haskins of Brat
tleboro late Saturday afternoon by
Speaker Henderson. who called him
to preside in the chair during consid-
Grafton in committee of the whole of
the Notifications appropriation bill.
Mr.. Haskins welded the gavel very
handily from his long experience in
that role in the Vermont House of Rep
resentatives. There are but few
members of the House whom the
speaker trusts to preside in commit
tee of the whole and never before
has he invited member to that duty
who is serving his first term and spec
tally his first session.
Senator Dillingham; is being widely
complimented for his success in fight
ing the drastic exclusion bill and his
services were recognized Saturday by
Senator Frye in naming him one of
three Senate conferees on the bill.
Mr.. Dillingham; was alone in the COM
mittee on immigration in resisting the
severe provisions and fought there as
well as in the Senate where he made
a powerful speech voicing his senti-
meuts The bill as 1t becomes a law
will conform very nearly to the junior
Vermont senator's views Washing
