line track, IN the direction from which
this train was approaching can be
had for several hundred feet. Evil
IDENTIFY Mr.. Narncy did not soc or hear
the approaching train until after he
had crossed over this side track, and
Chen, apparently, he endeavored to
slackcn the speed of his automobile.
ut is estimated by the people who
witnessed the collision that the speed
Of the automobile Immediately before
it was struck by the locomotive was
about 10 miles per hour. The train
which was involved in the accident
was an extra train. running on this
Sunday morning from Belfast to
Burnham Junction, with the soldier
boys from Belfast who We're start
ing for Camp DeVcnS. No regular
trains are run on Sundays on the Bel
fast branch Of the Maine Central
Railroad. The highway, which cross
IS the Maine Central Railroad
where this accident occurred, is one of
the main thoroughfares in that vicin-
ity and carries quite heavy traffic,
especially on Sundays.
The crossing in question is locat-
cd very near the Unity station, infact,
right in the station yard During
week days this crossing is protected
by the station agent. or some member
of the station crew, acting as flag
- ,1
within the hours when the sta
ton crew is on duty. Other
wise, the crossing is un-
protected, except the usual protection
given by all tram crews when switch
ing movements are being made over
the crossing. The train movements
over this crossing during the hours
when no protection is given are COM
parativoly few.
The View at this crossing for a
person in the highway, travelling in
the direction from which this auto
mobile was approaching, is obstruct-
ed. as above stated. by the storehouse
Of the Maplcwood Lumber Company
in the direction from which this train
was approaching. and in the opposite
direction the view is obstructed by
the station buildings and also prob
ably by other buildings in the vicini-
ty. The view of person in the high
way approaching from the opposite
direction, is ohstructed by the build
ing of the Turner Center Creamery
Company, which is located very near
the highway and the railroad.
1T appears from the evidence that
Mr.. Narney had formerly been en-
ployed by the Maplewood Lumber
Company. and the testimony shows
that he must have been familiar Wl'h
the conditions at this crossing. tor
some unknown reason, whether from
the fact that he was not expecting a
, Sunday train. or from some other
cause. he failed to exercise any pre-
caution as he approached this eros

portunity to have stopped ana aNo!Q-

STATE HOUSE


The Public Utilities Commission in
its decision rendered Wednesday in
the matter of the accident at Unity
on the Maine Central Railroad re-
sulting in the death of six people,
says that the circumstances in this
case. as in several other accidents,
which have been considered. seem to
indicate that some provision ought to
be made whereby the fireman might
give warning whistles in case OF an
emergency. The commission recon-
mends that the speed Of all trains,
when passing over this crossing at
times when it is not protected by a
fiagman be reduced TO not exceeding
six miles per hour.
"On July 16. 1922. Maine Cen
tal Extra Passenger Train No. $50

as result OF this collision six per-
sons lost their lives" say the decision

il, known as Mobiles Crossing in the
town of Fairfield.
"a section crew consisting of Sec
ton Foreman 4. f. Webb, B. H. Cay
ford O. II. Miller and William Speed
left the section house at Hinckley on
a motor car for the purpose of do
ing some work on the tracks near
Mobiles Siding. Attached to this mo-
tor car was hand car that was be-
ing pushed ahead of the motor car.
As the car approached Mile Post No.
80. the crew saw another motor car
approaching from the opposite dlrec-
ton. Foreman Webb applied the
brake and stopped the car, but not
in time to prevent it from passing
over Mr.. Speed, who in some way
had fallen from the car.
Rule /, 912. issued by the Engi-
neering Department of the Maine
Central Railroad, reads as follows:
Permit no track car to be attached
TO or come in contact with another
car except when stored at the cal
house.
Prom their own testimony, 1T Is
apparent that these men dlsobeyec
the rules and orders Of the railroad

DEXTER MAN
PETITIONS FOR
PARDON FROM JAIL

A petition for the pardon of George
Albert ODell of Dexter, who is serv-
ing a sentence of not less than two
nor more than three years in the
states prison at Thomaston. for rape,
was filled at the Department Of
state Wednesday. A hearing on the
petition will be held at the September
session of the governor and council.
O'Dell was refused a pardon by the
governor and council last March.
In his petition, O'Dell states that
he was wrongfully convicted Of the
crime OF rape, that his actual offense
was nothing more than fornication
and he has already served prison
time far exceeding the punishment
provided for fornication by statute.
J.. D. Waldron of Dexter is coun-
sci for the petitioners.

ber Company storehouse, because at
that point, if he had observed, he
could have both seen and heard the
train. We must conclude, therefore.
that this accident resulted from the
failure Of Mr.. Naney, who was drlV-
ing the automobile, to observe the
ordinary precautions as he approach
ed this crossing.
This automobile was approaching
on the fireman's side of the locomo-
tive, and by reason Of curve IN the
railroad track the engineer could not
sec the highway on the side OF the
railroad track from which the auto
mobile was approaching. The fire.
man, however, saw this automobile as
soon as it came by the corner of the
Maplcwood Lumber Company store
house, and he Immediately gave
warning to the engineer who applied
the emergency brakes.
The train was proceeding at that
time at about 20 miles per hour.
The engineer had no opportunity 10
give any warning whistles before ap-
plying the emergency brakes, put
such warning whistles might have
| been given by the fireman had the
| locomotive been equipped for that
purpose. The circumstances IN THIS
case. as in several other accidents
, which we have considered seem 70 IN
dicate that some provision ought 10
be made whereby the fireman might
give warning whistles in case or an
emergency. Such warning, if 1t could
| be given, would at least add one more
! possible chance to avoid collision.
I'VE consider that the protection
given at this crossing by the members
OF the station crew, during the hours
which the crew is on duty, is sufil-
cient for that part Of the time. IN
view, however, of the considerable
amount of highway traffic when
masses over this crossing. we believe
that some further protection ought 10
be given at this point, covering the
movements of such trains as are not
now protected We, therefore, recon-
mend that the speed Of all trains, when
passing over this crossing at times
when it is not protected by a fias-
man. be reduced to not exceeding SIX
miles an hour
