NARROWLY ESCAPES WRECK.
Section of Road Bed Gives Way Under
Freight i'm Deerfield.

DEERFIELD, Mass, May ga
serious wreck was narrowly averted
Sunday night when the engineer of a
southbound freight train felt the roadbed
give way as his engine passed over the
culvert north of the Boston & Maine rail-
road passenger station. The train was
stopped as soon as possible and it was
found that the roadbed had settled for
more than a rails length, leaving no
foundation Tor the ties to rest upon. The
portion of the train that had passed over
and onto the sunken track was quickly
drawn south to a place of safety. and
the rear cars were taken back to Green
field.
Examination showed that the culvert,
which was constructed in 1916, is over
200 feet long and was built upon an in
cline 40 feet below the rails on a founda-
ton of planks which have decomposed
The culvert had become clogged by the
rotten wood and other debris and the
water, having no outlet, undermined
both walls. The swift current caused by
the recent heavy rains churned a large
hollow inside the embankment under the
roadbed, which caused the track to settle
A temporary trestle is being built on
piles to support the track while the earth
is being removed in order to rebuild the
culvert. Trains passing over it are linn
tied to rate of six miles an hour.

RATE INCREASE
Federal Court Refuses to Modify L. C. C..
0rder-Advance of Is Per Cent
on Through Freight Stands.

NEW YORK, May 26.-Federal dis
trict court yesterday handed down an
opinion sustaining the order of the inter
state commerce commission allowing the
New England railroad lines a 10 per
cent increase in rates on traffic moving
on through lines
The application asking for modifi-
cation of the order of the interstate com
mission, which was issued Jan. 30, 1922,
was brought by Al steam railroads oper-
ating west of the Hudson River gateway
The order complained of, the court de-
cision says, was made on the petition of
New England lines asking for an in
crease in their division. 1t was based
the court points out, on the cost of oper-
alton of the New England roads, because
OF their terminal characteristics, which
were represented as imposing relatively
heavier charge than that borne by the
lines west of the Hudson river
The order was attacked on the ground
that the commission had exceeded its
east and west of the Hudson river gate
way without, at the same time, fixing
subdivisions.
The court, in denying the application
of the fl lines and sustaining the COM
mission, says: I'VE are satisfied rea-
sonable investigation has been made
which warranted the granting of the
commissions order now complained of,
and no valid reasons exist why this court
should inValidate or modify the order"
The court, sitting as a statutory dis
trict court, was composed of Judges
Charles NJ. Hough, Martin T. Manton
and julius NJ. Mayer. The decision was
written by Judge Manton.
