DIVIDE BLAME IN
CROSSING CRASH
CORONER'S JURY AT NEENAH
DECLARES DRIVER AND RAIL
ROAD BOTH NEGLIGENT.
BELL ALARMS ARE PRAISED
General Manager of Northwestern
Road Says Warning Gong Prevents
Many Acknowledgements Cross
ings to Be Eliminated.

Neenah.-That the fifteen persons
who died as a result of the grade
crossing horror of Sept. "a came to
their deaths as a result of the care
lessness of Driver Peter Hanson,
and that if the crossing had been
properly guarded the accident would
not have occurred, was the verdict
of a jury in the inquest. The jury
deliberated thirty minutes and after
inquest was concluded an investi-
cation by the state railroad commits
sion was held. The concrete result
was that the commission will hasten
it's efforts to eliminate grade cross
ings in Wisconsin, which Chairman
Roemer said is the ultimate purpose
of the commission in dealing with
this branch of the commission S
work.
One of the most important wit
nesses was w. D. Cantillon, general
manager of the Northwestern rail-
road. He admitted, when the mat
ter of trains speed was brought up,
that in order to satisfy the demands
of the travelling public the company
must violate the city and village
ordinances and the state law which
attempt to regulate the speed OF
trains. He also said an electric
alarm bell system is good on any
crossing, and there was no report OF
any accident on the Northwestern
road where bells have been installed.
Mr.. Mcdonald suggested to the
commission that the apparently up-
necessary crossings in this city be
eliminated. Engineer H. H. HoVey
of the commission was instructed to
investigate at once and report. He
stated three dangerous grade cross
ings in this city could be eliminated
by diverting streets.
Before the commission, Peter Han
son testified that but for the Dill
board near the crossing the accident
would not have happened.

groups, people fell upon their knees
praying the Almighty to stay the
work of destruction.
What remained of the small dam at
Black River Falls was dynamited in
an unsuccessful effort to turn the
stream back from the business streets
into it's old channel.
Fear was entertained here for
towns further down the river, but
telephone messages from Melrose,
nineteen miles from here with pop
ulation of 200, and North Bend, TWEEN
ty-five miles away with a population
of 100 contained the information that
both towns were safe.
The defective construction Of the
municipal power plant is held by en-
gineers to be partly responsible for
the disaster. The concrete dixie of
the city dam, just completed, was laid
diagonally to the course of the river,
instead of at right angles, throwing
the flood waters toward the business
section when the torrent was re-
leased. Had this protective dixie been
built straight across to the side bank,
the eddy through which the flood got
it's first opening into the bank where
the business section was located
would not have existed.
