Notice.
To the Editor of The Sentinel

To the Editor OF The Sentinel
Dear Sir.-My attention was called to
an article pu blished in Monday evenings
Sun this forenoon, and, as it reflects not
only on my own character but also on
the character of every travelling man on
the road and is an insult to the moral
and Christian people Of your little city,
l feel it my duty as travelling man, and
that owe it to the people, to resent the
statement made.
And l trust you will kindly publish
the few words have to say in regard to
the hotels OF Grand Junction l would
like to state that you can always find
best hotels in the country. see this
done frequently; but l must say that,
while it would be very nice to have
fine new hotel here, the ones here at
present are good enough for me. The
proprietors do all in their power to make
US comfortable, and l think there are
very few who leave for Glenwood or else
where on account OF the hotel accomo-
dations. So much for the question OF
hotel Accommodations.
But as to the editors remark that the
travelling men. without exception, "hike"
to Glenwood because you 90 not have
your saloons open on Sunday and there
fore no chance for risking few dollars
Oh any kind Of game, repeat: it is an
insult to the travelling men OF the coun-
try and to your town and will certainly
do the town no good.
A gentleman said to me this morning:
81 was contemplating buying property
here; but do you suppose would bring
my wife and children here?" This re-
mark was made after reading the article
referred to.
In conclusion l will say that l can
name a number OF travelling men who
neither gamble, drink or use tobacco,
and that l can assure you that tho last
reason in the world given by a very large
majority of the men would be that you
did not open your gambling halls and
saloons on Sunday. One of the Boys.

WRECK And EXPLOSION
ACCIDENT ON THE b. & O. ROYAL
BLUE FLYER AT ~DEESBURG, o.
Engineer and Fireman Killed by
Bursting of Locomotive Bofler-No
Passenger Seriously Hurt.

CHILLICOTHE, O., Sept. 1S.-No. 2, the
Royal Blue flyer on the Baltimore & Ohio
Southwestern, was wrecked at Leesburg,
near here, at s o'clock tonight. the train
having run into an open switch while run
ming at the rate of fifty miles an hour.
To add to the disaster the boiler explod-
ed and the engineer. Philip Roe, and fire.
man Charles Studer. both of this city.
were killed outright.
Every coach on the train left the track.
but advices from the scene of the wreck
are that none of the passengers has been
seriously injured. General Manager /. @.
Rawn was in his private car on the rear
of the train. and he superintendent taking
care of the many who are more or less
hurt. He ordered the injured brought to
the Warner House in this city. He asked
for room for forty-four persons injured.
Their names cannot be obtained here, as
all is confusion.
The train consisted Of eight coaches, and
was packed with people who were return
ing home from the Cincinnati fall festival.
Conductor David Thurlow, who was in
charge of the train, has notified the dis
patchers here hat the train with the in
jured people will reach Chillicothe about
midnight. The train in leaving the track
knocked down several telegraph poles, con-
sequently all wires are down and advices
are hard to receive. No explanation can
be given for the wreck. 1t was first
thought that a freight crew had left the
switch open, but there was no train on the
siding at the time. The siding is a very
small one and the engine. while going at a
high rate of speed, easily jumped the track.
People from here on the train report
that it is one Of the worst wrecks that
ever occurred on the road, as all coaches
are more or less upset. The postal and
baggage cars were heaped on top of the en-
CINE tank. and it will take many hours to
clear the wreck.
Following is a partial list of the injured:
MRS. JOHN SELLERS, Wellston, o.
MISS SYLVESTER, wellston.

MRS. GEORGE WARNER.

den to the companies since they have been
compelled to buy gas to furnish their pa
irons that a form Of contract was>drawn
up by them, to be signed by the fran
chise holders. guaranteeing the latter a sup
ply OF gas at 10 cents a thousand feet,
while the rate for the general public Is to
be IS cents when the meters begin bust
ness the first Of the month. Last night the

formerly, be elected for four years. Every
town and city in the State affected by the
law, which was passed by the last Legisla-
ture. will be asked to cooperate In the
effort tc bring about the change. 1t is
claimed elections every two years are too
frequent, and that as officials are usually
conceded a denomination when serving but
two years, 1t would be better to elect them
for four years.
