The ATTLEBOR0 CROSSING.
States Position In Removing Danger De-
Fined BY Assistant Attorney General.

Boston. March aS.-when asked about
the states position in the matter relative
to the abolition OF grade crossings in At
tleboro Assistant General Degoosh at his
offioe In the State House. Boston, said;
.sThe Commonwealth does not take the
position 70 be antagonistic, either To the
town of Attleboro or the railroad, but the
state does raise the point that the special
commission sitting In the matter has no
authority to take land for new station
site on Mil street. ~
1T is thought By this department rep
resenting the Inhabitants OF the Common
wealth that the railroad now has SUM-
Client land for a new station at It's present
location There are approaches to the
present structure from Union street and
from Park street. and OF that land but
small part Is occupied for station or other
purposes. And. again. the railroad under
the plan of abolition Is given more track
age than IL now possesses, and is also
given more land for a freight yard than IT
already has.
The states point is this: The Com
monweaith, whose interests this depart
ment is guarding. is In voluntary contrib
utor to the expense OF abolition Of grade
crossings OF the state. ans that as the
common wealth Is a voluntary contributor.
and having passed the acts and amend
ments thereto describing the manner IN
which grade crossings shall be abolished,
the work must be done according Go law.
and the grade crossings should be abolish
ed under the law.
''The town should not have new high
ways for the convenience OF the public at
large at the expense. or partial expense.
OF the state.
'"The railroad should not have addition
al facilities over its present facilities.
trackage and freight yard enlargement, at
the expense. or partial expense, of the
Commonwealth.
THE Commonwealth Is ready and anx
ious to DO its share OF the great work,
but 20 Is not Just 20 require the Common
wealth 10 go TO the expense OF payment
or partial payment OF improvements for
which the law has made no provisions.
and which we consider are improvements
beyond the actual abolition OF grade
crossings in Attleboro.
"If the superior court sustains the
points raised I'm behak OF the inhab
OF the Commonwealth the report OF the
special commission sitting on the case will
be recommitted 10 the special commission
for further hearing on the points raised.
