INTO BRIDGE A1UTMENT
One Passenger kiIted-Twenty-f five

to quick action by the accident today.
in which an electric car coasted down
a, steep grade in Dalton and crashed
into a railway bridge abutInent. kill
ing one passenger and severely injur-
ing 25 others, the Pittsfield board of
aldermen this evening voted to close
two branch lines operated by the Pitts
field Street Railway company. At al
most the same hour a number of the
most prominent manufacturers in
Pittsheld and Dalton met to discuss
the local street railway Situation with
Charles w. Bishop, a member Of the
Massachusetts railroad commission.
Mr.. Bishop came here to Investigate
the wreck and also to inquire into
complaints OF poor service from pat
rons of the companyss cars, among
Winthrop Murray Crane, whose home
is in Dalton.
Today's accident did not occur on
either of the branch lines ordered
closed; but it undoubtedly fastened
the action of the aldermen. The Coun-
try club line. running a mile and half
south from Pittsdeld, and the North
branch, a. mile in length, are the ones
closed.
A special town meeting has been
called for February FL in Dalton. the
object being to see whether the town
will vote to oust the Pittsheld Street
Railway company from Dalton for al
legged inadequate service and equip
ment. Coincidently a motion viii be
made to have the Berkshire street
railway, which now runs close TO the
town, place its care IN Dalton's streets.

dience was suggested again by Mon
signor Kennedy, Httle later. He had
received further instructions in the
meantime, and said that II I did not
speak at the Methodist church the aM-
dience would hold good. I replied that
I appreciated the intended courtesy,

the board of aldermen which has un-
der consideration an ordinance provid-
ing that all foods held in cold storage
must be tagged with the date at which
they go into storage and the date when
