BELLOWS FALLS NEWS
Fatality in Railroad Yard at North
WalpoIe Wednesday

Victim Was Probably Dennis Mcouy,
Weaver Of West swsnzey, N. H.-Rela-
tIves Not Heard From.
An unknown man was killed in the
Boston & Maine freight yard in North
Walpole at 1.55 Wednesday morning.
A special freight train on the Rutland
railroad in charge Of Conductor II. c.
Edgerton, Brakeman II. S. Halliday and
II. S. Clarke and Engineer o. w. Sumner
was switching in the Boston e. Maine
yard. The man was probably on the track
and did not notice in the dark that the
engine was backing up on the way to the
Rutland yard.
When discovered the body was terribly
mangled, the head being completely sew
cred, the shoulders crushed and the arms
and body mutilated. The identity Of the
man was not known, but letters were
found in one pocket addressed to Dennis
McGuy, West Swanzey, N II. No other
marks Of Identification could be found.
The body was removed to the undertake
ing rooms Of j. r. Keefe and lay there
all day Wednesday. Later in the day the
authorities learned that a man by the
same name, a weaver by trade, was known
in Providence, r. l., and had brothers
there. Communication was opened with
the chief of police there and efforts made
to locate the relatives throughout the
day.
UP to a late hour last evening no def
mite news had been heard from Provi-
dence and the authorities were in doubt
to whom to deliver the body. The dead
man was identified by three or four mer
from saxtons River as Dennis McGuy a
weaver from Olneyville, R. 1. Up tc
last night no one had appeare- to claim
the body although efforts were being made
to locate his friends.

street; Chestnut street; Pleasant street;
Maple street west Of Estey street.
The only place where the proposed viii
lage system has a pipe where Crowell
does not have is one, is down Union
street and through Swedeville.
1t will be seen that for the village to
get a system which covers the ground
which the Crowell system does, will re-
quire a very large outlay above the
amount called for by the proposed con-
| tract.
1t is estimated by one of the contrac
tors who was here that the proposed viii
| lage system with the distributing system
! called for will cost to complete 1t, includ-
ing all water and land damage, and a
distributing system covering the territory
that the Crowell system covers, practi-
cally twice as much as to simply do
the work and furnish the material re-
quired by the proposed contract So,
whatever bid is received by the water
board If a contract should be let the
amount will have to be practically doubled
to show what the system would cost the
village; then, the village will have simply
Halliday brook nothing more, with a
reservoir of 22000,000 gallons The re-
quirements which the water board nut
upon Mr.. Crowell in the proposition they
made him was to have storage for 300
100000 gallons of water. The proposed
village system has $4,000 900 gallons, with
water shed only fraction the size of
the Crowell system. The village cannot
know from any bids that are received on
the proposed plan what an effective
water system will cost
Another complication seems to be in
the way for the taking of the Halliday
brook for water supply for Brattleboro,
as proposed by the water board
The proposed reservoir will require the
discontinuance of the Halliday road for
some distance, and the building of a new
road in another place.
1t appears that the Halliday road is a
county road laid out by the county court
In 1866 and cannot by law be discontin-
ued except by order OF the county court.
This seems TO have been overlooked until
now

First class License Granted Thomas Don
eqan.


cyan.
At the hearing by the board of license
plication of Thomas Donegan for first
class license to be operated at II Bridge
street, a protest against the granting of
the license asked for was made in writ
ing by the managers of the paper mills.
Among the firms protesting were the In
ternational Paper company, Robertson
Paper company, Moore e. Thompson Pa
per company, Wyman Flint & Sons, John
t. Moore & Son and John Robertson &
Son. The location of the proposed saloon
Is within a stones throw of the mills
The board decided to grant the license
and In a very courteous communication
addressed to the protestants make the
statement Just as soon as any one Of
the business firms that sign the petition
can prove to the board, and submit the
same in writing, that the license to Mr..
DOnegan is a menace to their interests
We will close the place at once" 1t is
probable this is the only license that
will be granted, at least for the present.
This makes but four out of the six to
which the town is entitled, as the drug
gists have refused to accept unless three

time not a drop of liquor can be pur-
chased legally for family or medicinal
use A man, or woman, may drink all
they can hold at a bar, but none can be
