baggage master of the passenger train.
was seriously injured; Henry W. Hoyt.
of Danbury, was injured about the
head and arms; 0. P. Hatch, of Fall'-
hold, was cut about the head and back
injured, the last two being passengers,
and Morrison Dauchy, of Rowayton,
who was riding on a freight cur, re-
ceived painful injuries.

Engines Met Head-0n.

The passenger train. which was an
express, left New Haven at 6:10 p. -m.,
and was due in Stevenson at 5:40. it
carried a large number of the dole"-
gates that had been attending the Re
publican state convention, and had
reached a point about half a mile east
of the station, when the engineer, W.
H. Shilling. of New Haven, saw the
freight train coming from the west.
and applied the emergency brakes.
The engineer of the freight evidently

. caught sight of the passenger train at
the same time. for he applied his
brakes, but the momentum of the
train, which was composed of loaded
cars, coming down a grade, was too
great, and the engines met head-on.

Baggage Master Injured.

The tender of the passenger engine
was driven through the front of the
combination baggage and smoking car
and Reinhard, who was sitting in the

- doorway of the car, was thrown out.
down a steep embankment and whcn
picked up he was found to have been
out about the head and was suffering
from internal injuries He was re-
1 isnoved to a hospital in New Haven.

Passengers Thrown from Seats.

The front part of the engine of the
Assenger train was tossed up on the
coder and completely wrecked. The
passengers in the coaches were thrown
from their. seats but beyond slight
outs and minor bruises they escaped
iniury y.

The freight engine was doubled up
and smashed and eight of the heavily
loaded freight cars were thrown from
the track and piled up. Dauchy, who
was riding on one of the trucks of the
cars, was caught in the wreckage, and
”when taken out was removed to the
Danbury Hospital.

Dauchy is about seventeen years of
age. and is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Al-
ien Dauchy, of Rowayton avenue. He
has been in the habit of making per-
iodical trips away from his home, and
several weeks ago went to western
New York state, He, was returning from
this jaunt when he was injured. Con-
.stabie Edward J. Lndrigan notified Mr.
Dauchy of his son’s accident this
morning.

The debris was cleared away early
this morning by a wrecking crew
from New Haven that remained at
the task all night long. The two
wrecked locomotives were shifted to n
”siding, and will be taken to the New
Haven shops for repairs The tender
of the freight raint that went head- on
into the weat— bound'passenger train,

was torn from' its couplings, and

‘thrown down a steep embankment on
which the collision occurred. and the
tender of the passenger engine was

. telescoped several feet into the end of

' the combination baggage and smoking
car. Col. John Tweedy, City Clerk
Henry N. Fanton, Ex- -Mayor Charles S.
Peck, and other prominent Danbury

men who had bhn attending the Re-
publican convention in New Haven.
and all were more or less bruised as
they were thrown from their seats by
the impact.

, The collision occurred just after the
freight rain had rounded a curve on
the down grade. and the locomotive
was forced into the passenger train
by the weight of the thirty cars behind
it. That some of the passenger coach-
es were not plunged down the bank is
looked upon as almost miraculous.

' Superintenth Lake, of the western
division of the New Haven road un-
der whose supervision the Berkshire
tracks come, is making an investiga-
tion into the cause of the collision.
The freight train. which was an extra.
had passed the siding at Stevenson,
lthough the passenger train, which
gas about on time was line there and‘
was headed tol- Shelton. It is' sup-
posed that thy-engineer on the freight
forgot that ‘tho passenger train was
due. and was trying to reach Shelton
before meeting it.

cboy, of Rowayton, who was injured
in the train wreck at Stevenson, last
night. and was Drought to this city,

He was out about the ace and head

convention. He said we have been liv-
ing within ourselves and on our past
efforts.

He saidthat even the Tammany Hall
men were astonished to go to the west
and see the feeling of determination
and confidence which exists there.
He was high in praise for the way 111
which they carried things on in their
country. and said every man from the
east was made hopeful, and “we be-
lieve there is more than a fighting
chance. The reports from every state
in the union indlcites that this is go-

BALLOON ' FLIGHTS

Made Last Right from Pilisfield
and Springfield Across Mas-
sachusolis

 

 

PLYMOUTH, Mass; Sept. 10.—-lh
company across Massachusetts, al
though at no tillle'ln sight of each oth
er, two balloons reached the easterly
side of the state today, landing in Ply

mouth County. within fifteen miles of
each other. The balloons ascended at
midnight, one from Springfield and the
other from Pittsfield. The aeronauts
consider that the tours constituted
perfect balloon flights under ideal con-
ditions.

The balloon "Pittsiiekl. Heart of the
Berkshires,” was the one which as-
cended from the city for which it is
named. it was piloted by William Van
sleet, and carried Dr. Sidney S. Stow-
eli as a passenger. it landed in the
black water district of the town of
Kingston. within two miles of the At-
lantic ocean. and more than 100 miles
from the starting point. The other
bulldon. the “Boston." owned ahd pl-
loted by Charles J Glidden and carry-
ing Prof H. Helm Clayton. of the Blue
Hill Observatory, as a passenger, left
Springfield and landed within the en-
closure of the Stanley Manufacturing
Company, at Bridgewaier Junction. a
mile from the town of Bridgewater
alld fifteen miles of the spot where
the Plttsfield balloon came down.

Although it appears that the distance
actually traveled by each car cannot
be determined, the Pittsileid balloon
traversed about 105 miles in an air
line from the place of ascension, while
the "Boston” covered about ninety
miles.

Each balloon made its landing safe-
ly and without incident. between five
and six o’clock this morning. Both
Mr. Glidden and Prof. Clayton were
enthusiastic over their trip in the
“Boston.” declaring it one of the most
enjoyable that ever could have been
made. The night was clear and warm
and a brilliant full September moon
bathed the underlying earth, revealing
it almost as plainly as daylight. The
landing was made without difilculty,
the balloon was quickly packed up and
placed upon a train and the aeronauts
left for Boston before 8 o'clock.

The “Pittsfleid. Heart of the Berk.
shires" experienced the same ideal
aerial conditions that marked the
flight of the "Boston." As the morn-
ing broke the neronautd could see wat-
er in the distance, but were not sure
that it was the sea. They had been
traveling at a high altitude. but when
the broad stretch of water was sighted
they brought their car near the earth.
A braksmon on a freight train was
hailed and salted bow for distant the
salt water was. On receiving the re
ply that the ocean was close at hand
Mr. Van Slset effected a landing. The
balloon come down gently in an open
field within a mile of the nearest body
of water and loss than two miles from
the open ocean. Both aoronauts. with

ills Commodities Clause of, the
Hepburn Railroad Act Was
Today Declared in Be On-
constitutional

 

 

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 10.-—The
commodities clause of the Hepburn
railroad act was today declared to be
unconstitutional by the [Jailed States
Circuit Court for the Eastern District
of Pennsylvania.

Judges Gray and Dallas agreed In
an opinion covering 75 typewritten
pages that the clause is unconstitu-
tional. Judge Buffington dissented.
bllt did not. file an opinion.

The commodities clause constitutes
the. fifth paragraph of the first section
of the intenState Commerce act. it
being one of the amendments made by
the Hepburn Railroad act of June 29.
1906. .The clause provides that after
May 1, 1908. it shall be unlawful for
any railroad company to transport
from one state to another or lo any
foreign country any commodity. man-
ufactured, mined or produced by it or
under its authority. directly or indi-
rectly, except such commodities as
may be necessary for its use in the
conduct. of its business as a common
carrier. The clause exempts timber
and its manufacturer products and is
aimed particularly at railroads owning
coal mines.

The case was argued on June 10 and
17 before Judges George M. Dallas,
George Gray alld Joseph Buflington.
The railroad companies involved were
the Jersey Central the Lehigh Valley.
the Elle. the Delaware. Lackawanna
and Western llle Dcioware and Hud-
son, the Pennsylvania and the Phlla
delphia and Reading. Ninety per cent.
of all the unmined anthracite coal in
Pennsylvania belongs to those corpora
tions or to coal companies whose
shares are held by them. The Phila-
delphia and Reading's case was not
argued along with the others because
of certain questions of law involved in
its ownership.

Attorney General Bonaparte came
to this city and personally made the
principal argument in behalf of the
government. The general counsel for
the raiirmlds were John G Johnson,
of this city. and R. W. Deforeut, of
New York.

Prior to the clause going into effect
the government agreed not to enforce
the clause until a decision was had
upon iuw points involving its constitu
tionlllity.

The Department of Justice then filed
a bill ill equity upholding the govern
mcnt‘s contention that the clause was
unconstitutional. The railroads in re
ply gave seven chief reasons why the
clause was repugnant to the constitu
tion. among them bein that it was
conflscatory. discriminat ng and a pro-
hibition and not a regulation; that it
deprived the.raiiroads of "liberty and
p1 opclty Riidr lolated a right re
served‘to the Si

Thel‘lntchtatee oClumerce act pro
vides a penalty not to excecl $5.00C
for each violation of the clause. Th1
defendants contended that each car oi
coal shipped. in violation of the clause
could be construed under the act as
an offense and as the Lehlgh Valley
Railroad ships daily 1.200 cars of 1111-
thracite in inter-state commerce tllni
railroad under such an interpretation
would be liable to is fine of 30.000001:
each day.

NEW YORK, Sept. ill.~——Thc coal
stocks were favorably affected by iht
announcement that the Pennsylvania
courts had declared the Hepburn coin
modities clanse unconstitutional. Read-
ing. Baltimore and Ohio. Delaware lllld
Hudson Jersey Central. Pennsylvania
and Eric advanced sharply. Dealings
In Reading and Baltimore and Ohio
were large. The announcement came
as a surprise on Wall street. where the
decision of the court was not looked
for until the latter part of the lnonih.

the Republican Ticket—Diner
Positions to Be Filled

The local political yeast is now rap

ity aild is boililig in great shape at
both ends of the town.

it seems to be taken for granted
among prominent members of both par-
ties that former LieutenantCovernor
Edwin 0. Kcelcr, 011 the Republican
side. and Senator Jeremiah Donovan.

on the Democratic. will be opponents
for the scat ill the upper house of the
state legislature from the Twenty-
sixth district. it came as a surprise
to most Republicans when the prob
ability of Mr. Keeler being a candidate
was “DOWN the“ columns sev-
eral weeks am, but when Mr. Keeler
himself admitted a possibility of his
running, they were convinced.

ill the event of the former lieuten-
ant-governor not running, Representa-
tive Frederick H. Quintard has been
mentioned, hilt he prefers being re-
turned to the legislature, where he has
already served a good term. This set-
ties the nomination Oil the Republican
side from South Norwalk. and in Nor»
walk and East Norwaik. the First and
Third districts. Marcellus ll. ilennett
is being prominently mentioned. He
is desirous of the nomination and ii is
reported that one of the chief planks
in his platform will be a liberal Sun-
day. such as the allowing of Sunday
baseball. in connection with the limit
motion of representative fromlthese
two districts. the name of Lester Hy-
,att is also being quite prominently
mentioned. East Norwnlk furnished
the candidate last your.

South Norwalk has no less than five
candidates for the Republican nonllnn
tion for selectnlan. The latest is
Charles E. Seymour. the former grocer.
The other four are Eugene M. 'l‘oiies,
former Selectman James A. ill'OWII.
Councilman Thomas ll. Robins and
Councilman Frank ll. b‘lich. And the.
willie this battle is going on. the track
is all clear for Councilman James T.
Powers. on the Democratic ticket.

Not a little surprise has also been
created in the rallks of both parties
by the announcement that Mayor Fran-
cis l. Burnell may not run for the ohlce
again. The Democrats haVe taken it as
a foregone conclusion that he would
head the ticket. but the mayor. himself.
says he is not sure yet what he will
do. It now seems to be an assured
fact that Harry W. Mather will lead
the Republican ticket. Both parties
are keeping very mllm on the council.
manic ticket. and the reason for this is
a. very good'one. There are very few
candidates for the office just at pres-
ent. But then, three weeks are a long
time if they are in the future, and it
will be that long before the nominat-
ing caucuses.

it is known that Mayor Charles A.
Soofield is a. candidate for reelection
as mayor of Norwalk. Dr. Carl A.
Harstrom. who recently made a; grace-
ful debut in politics. is also being urged
to be a candidate for the cities on
the Republican ticket by his friends.
0n the Democratic side three names
are being heard, John J. Cavanagb. ex
mayor of South Norwalk; ell-Mayor
James T. Hubbe’il and emMayor Fer
dinnnd B. Smith. It is doubted that
ell-Mayor Hubbell would stand. though
he might, and it is understood that Mr.

be adverse to heading the ticket.

Full Dress Uniforms oi the
Richmond Blues, from Vir-
ginie, Dosiroyoli, and Bag-
gage Car and Railroad Sla-
iion Badly Damaged

NEW HAVEN, Sept. 10.—F‘ire in the
western end of the New York. New
Haven and Hartford llaiiroad station
here, early today. caused a loss of
about 510,000, which includes, it is
thought, the monetary loss by the dos.
traction of baggage belonging to the
crack military company of Virginia,
the Richmond Blues, which is being
entertained by the Second Company,
Governor's Foot Guards. The blaze,
which was insignificant at the start,
became of threatening proportions ill
a few minutes because of the ignition
of the i‘inisch gas tank. from which
curs are supplied while in the station.
The fire was first seen under a car in
which the baggage of the Richmond
lllues had been brought froln Hartford
just. before midnight. After the gas
explosion the. flames went all over the
wood work of the train shed ill the
section west of the main waiting room,
covering a portion of the structure 150
feet long. Before the firemen were in
control the. three cars which loads up
the Richmond lilacs special train
were ablaze and the Adams Express
Company's room was about to be
cleaned out. Some express matter was
destroyed. The fire followed the var-
nish on the rafters of the silcd and the
paint work on the station building. alld
it was quickly put out. Men were
started without delay on repairs. ill
the baggage of the Richmond Blues
were many dress uniforms used on pit-
rude.

it was stated later in the morning
that about half of the uniforms, con-
tained lll six or seven trunks. had been
lost, alld it is thought this portion
of the damage may amount to about
37.000. it was said that enough of the
in“ dress uniforms had been saved to
fit out one company of the Blues for
the parade, which occurred this after-
noon. The remainder of the visitors
will probably nlnrch in fatigue uni»
forms.

Quartermaster-Sergeant C. C. Bols-
seau, of the Blues. who was in the
car with H. W. Arnold. ol' the Foot
Guards. looking over the baggage when
the explosion occurred. was not so so
verely burned as-at first supposed.
and after having his injuries attended
to and a rest of several hours, took
part ill the automobile parade. which
formed a part of the morning program.
Mr. Arnold. who was also bllrlled ill
the fire, was taken to the Toutine H0:
tel and given medical attention.

It was recalled by some of the mem-
bers of the Foot Guard this mornlllg
that when the Foot Guards were the
guests of the Richmond Blues ill Vir-
ginia. that the latter organization suf-
fered the misfortune of having its ar-
lnory burned. The equipment. part of
which was lost in this morning's fire,
was all new.

In the gray dawn at 4:40 o'clock

Department was called to extinguish a
stubborn fire in a freight car loaded
with wool.

How the blaze originated is a. mys-
tery. though it is supposed to have
been caused by spontaneous combos

entirely from within. The car was

REMARKABLE AGE
OF BROOKLYN WOMAN

Mrs. Elizabeth Runi. Anni of
Mrs. Charles Williams, of
Norwaik. Is 108

Mrs. Elizabeth Hunt, of Adelllhia
street, Brooklyn, New York, a great
aunt of Mrs. CharlesM. Williams, of
Merwiu street, Norwalk. was 108 years
old on August 31st, which places her
well 11p in the list of the oldest resi-
dents of the country.

Having attained such a ripe age.
Mrs. Hunt's views 011 the subject of
longevity are of more than ordinary in-
terest. she maintains that her ex-
treme ago is due to a cold water bath
every morning, and refraining from
wearing corsets. Though Mrs.’ Ste-
is not so robust as she used to be, she
still retains all of her faculties, and
there is every reason to believe that
she will survive for some time. it has
been her custom for many years to
take a trip to Meriden each summer,
but this year she felt that the journey
would be too much of a tax on her.‘

On the occasion of her 108th birth-
day, Mrs. Hunt received 100 callers
and 150 post cards of a congratulatory
nature froln friends and relatives.
Aunt Betsey, as she is familiarly
known, has lived under all of the pres-
idents of the United States. with the
exception of Washington and one of
the events of her life occurred when
she shook hands with the great La-
Fayette.

Mrs. Hunt was about two years old
when Fulton's Ciearlnollt sailed up the
Hudson River, and she was quite a.
young miss before the first railroad
was in operation in America. When
the war of 1812 broke out she was ii
years of age.
