MlLLINOCKET ACCIDENT.
Railroad Commissioner Gives De-
cision on Smash Up of March 20.

The railroad commissioners handed
down Tuesday the following decision as
to the serious accident which occurred
on the evening of March % in the Mil
llnocket yard OF the Bangor and Aroos-
took railroad. This was q rear-end col
Iislon of extra freight train No. 60 from
Ashland Junction to Millinocllet with
shifting engine No. 321 which was at
work in the yard. The commissioners
in their decision review in detail the
conditions of the collision and sum up
the evidence brought ont ct the he1r-
ing which they held. The engineer of
the extra freight train, Verne Henry.
was killed in the accident. The com
missioners find that the extra freight
train was running faster than it shoold
have run into the yard, although there
is no published rule as to the speed of
trains in yards. They do not. however,
blame the engineer who was killed. He
was running his train on time. No
scrnapnone was against him. He had
right to suppose the track was clear,
and he could not just tell where the
switch was. because the extra tram on
the main line hid it. 1t is not strange
that he ran further down the track
than he intended. looking for switches
and switch lights, witch were hidden
by Il train which ought not to have
been on the track ahead of him.
The commissioners say: 1--WE have
seen no evidence mat any man of the
train crew of extra NJ So was in fault
The accident was caused by the fault
of the night operator, Mr. Holden. in
lowering the scmaphcnc without know
ing that the main line was clear. and
We think that he had not had sufficient
instruction from the station agent in
relation to using semaphonc1 under
such circumstances as existed this
night
"Charles Holden. the night operator
is mere boy. He is only II years of
| ag", and while he appcrcd to be intel
| lg2nt and was evidently truthful.
which is much t. his credit, we feel it
| our duty to repeat what he said in re-
| lat'ol, to a similar accident on another
| railroad in 1901. We question the pol

| important position of night operator
| and trusting him with the movement
| of trains.
