RAILROAD QUESTION

The communication and reply CIV
en below are self-explanatory and are
of much local interest:
Wabash and Western Maryland.
SMessrs. Editors:
In the Pittsburg Dispatch of De-
cember 16 I note an article stating
that the Wabash Railroad and the
Pennsylvania Railroad have compro-
missed their disagreements and con-
sentions, one result of which is that
the Pennsylvania Railroad has secur-
ed the Western Maryland and other
lines now owned by the Wabash If
4 am not in error. one Of the consider
atoms agreed upon by the city Of Bal
timore and the Wabash when the city
sold it's holdings in the Western
Maryland was that the same was
never to be transferred to rival
company. and Baltimore was to be the
terminal of an extension of the Wa
bash from Pittsburs. I'm correct?
Fairmont. w. Va.
Isuch a stipulation was made.
There is no foundation for the state
rnent that the Pennsylvania Railroad
has secured the Western Maryland.1

one OF the ten men killed and all OF
the forty overcome BY the sulphur

Coal company at Williamstown were
members of a relief party.

Albert Nan. engineer, aged eighteen,

Enoch Morgan was the first man
killed The rest Of the victims We're
members Of the rescuing party, which
at one time was made up Of over 100
men.
Intimation Of the presence Of an ex-
traordinary quantity Of sulphurous gas
IN the mine was first received by min
ers who Were walking through the
tunnel, which extends from the Bear
valley to the Williams valley side Of
the mountain Shortly afterward a
coal train came through and picked
up some Of these men, fnsensible from
the gas. and hurried them to the VIII.
llams valley side. A relief train load.
ed with rescuers and members Of the
night Shift was hurriedly made up and
sent to the mine TO rescue the others.
Before the train had Travelled any
great distance the reseuers started to
explore the mine. and in a short while
these men were lettering and falling
to the ground fatally stricken or seri-
ously overcome. The lights which the
miners carried were of little good be-
cause Of the large amount Of gas, and
in the death reeking atmosphere and
with practically no light a number Of
men, partly overcome fell into a
stream Of water which flows along the
track.
Despite the immense odds against
which the Yescuing party worked the
