Inquiry into the .Fitcnbnrg Rall-
noad Disaster Begun. .
THE ENGINEER or THE FREIGHT
TESTIHES,
And Says ‘He Saw No- Danger 'Sigt
nals.
BOSTON, Sept. Iii—The inquiry into the
cause of the terrible railroad collision 01
Saturday evening at West Cambridge
was begun this morning before the rail-
road commissioners. Chairman John A.
Sanford and William J. Dale, of the
board were present, Commissioner
, Stevens being absent. Mr. George A.
Torrey, attorney for the road, repre-
sented the Fitchburg Railroad Company,
and General Manager John Adams and a
large number of interested train men
were resent. Engineer Goodwin, it was
state , was still in the hospital and un-
able to be present. , j .
Superintendent; Hartwell of the- Fitchj-
burg Division, Mr. William EWing, As-
' aistant Superintendent' Train Dia-
patcher Smith, Peter Walsh, the gate-
man, and Mr. N. A. Cook were then
sworn. . »
The first witness, Mr. Ewing, was then
called. ~
Mr. Ewing testified that he had been
{gistant superintendent since Oct. 20
To Attorney Torrey—“I am familiar
with the present system of rules. They
nave been promulgated since I came.”
“Now since this accident—has anything
occurred at this accident which has led
you to think the rules were wrong!”
“No sir, I think no .”
“Then if the existing rules had been
observed by the employee on the trains
this accident would not have happened?”
“It could not.”
Commissioner Dale asked regarding the
rule providing for the fuses signal and
Mr. Ewing quoted from rule 31 referring
to the fuses, which is an extra danger
signal for occasions of emergency. ’The
rule provides that when a train finds a
fusee burning on the track that its speed
should be reduced to a minimum.
Witness stated to Chairman Sanford
that book co ies of the rules were mailed
to each emp oye and a receipt taken.
They were also posted in the time- table
and on bulletin boards. Conductors and
enginemen were examined also as to their
knowledge of ahe‘se rules, and every man
was held to be freely conversant with
them.
»' By Mr. Torrey — “When ' these' rules
were made they were prepared by the
American Railway Association, made up
of managers of the various railroads
throughout the country?”
“Yes, sir.” '
‘gAnd on how many roads are they now
in use?” -
“Upward: of 90 per cent of all the rail- '
, roads in the country.”
\ “So that they combine the best experi-
ence of railroad managers to be obtained
in the country?” '
“Yes, sir.”
Train Dispatcher Smith Testifies.
Edgar A. Smith,.train dispatcher at the
Fitchburg station in Boston, testified
that his duty was to oversee the issuing
of train orders and to keep a record of
every train from the Boston end as well
as freight from Charlestown. During
the day time reports are received of the
passage of trains from nearly every sta-
tion on the road; at night such reports
come only from those stations at which a
night 0 erator is maintained. Freight
2071eft oston at 10.30 that night, leav.
in Prison Point station. The operator
. at est Cambridge, owing to the excite-
ment, had not tran itted his re rt,
but the dispatcher to his record 0 the
arrival of the freight at that point. It
was at 10.30.
Peter Welch, Gateman
at the Dublin street'crossing, stated that
he was on duty the night of the accident,
and noticed the freight train was running
fast as it passed the crossing. In his
0 inion the train was running at a
h gher rate of speed than usual. Shortly
after the train passed he heard the crash
and went to the scene. He heard no
whistling from the freight train and,
could not state positively how the signals
were set. The distance signal he could
not see, and the near one he thought was
set for passingtralns. -
W. L. Simpson stated that .he was in
charge of the signal station on that even-
ing, and that the signals were set for the
Watertown branch trains and meant
danger for all other trains. He was pos-
itive that the danger signals were set as
well as the machine. The signals were
furnished with lights that night, he
said, for he did the work himself. The
home signal was a red light, and the dis-
tance signal was a green light. The home
signal he was sure was lighted. The sig-
nals, he said, were set so quick that he
did not know whether the engineer of
the freight train got them or not.
The Engineer of the Freight.
Engineer H. P. Goodwin of the freight
train stated that it was his first trip on
the Erie freight, agnough he had been an
engineer for'sevefrnlflyears. .119 . had run
on the road from Fitchburg west on
freights many times, but never before had
he run out of Boston. He left Charlestown
on the evening in mention at 10.30 o’clock.
“I am familiar with the signals of the
stations,-and observed them all with the
. exception of the one at the Cambridge
dopot, which I could not discern. There
was no light in the lamp. The next sig-
nal is the distance signal which is on the
east side of the West Cambridge station.
This signal I could not see on account of
the fog' and the smoke of‘ the locomotive.
I saw the home signal, which was a white
iiiht, and I answered by a blow of the
w istie.
“It is our duty when a signal is; out of
order to keep a sharp lookout and wait
until we reach the next signal. I shut
off the power to a great extent when I
did not see the distance signal and used
- caution until I reached the next signal.
' I did not think it was necessary to put .
on brakes when I saw the passen er train
We collided, I think, about 10:4 , but I
. am not positive. . I cannot tell just how
fast In train was going, but don’t think
over miles. - .
Saw No Signals,
I saw no flags, nor anyutorpedoes on the
' track. I am positive that no such sig-
nals were set. If such signals ‘ had been
"set I would have seen them and would
have stopped. It ,is customary for all
fonglneers to answer. the interlocking sig-
nals by two blasts of our whistle and I
did so. I not only answered that signal,
.;but I answered other ones out on the
do "1 ‘ '

ition on time, but was an hour late and

Passenger trains are instructed to loo]
out for passcnrer trains when on thl
track ahead of freight trains are supposed
to keep out of the way, and when they
are not they are supposed to protect
themselves.” ' '
At the conclusion of his testimony i1
was reviewed by the chairman, who
asked him if it was as he meant to have
it recorded. His only correction was
that. when he observed that therear cal
of the passenger train he became so ex-
cited that he was not positive that he
‘lrhdSlfiled for down brakes, but supposed
e .
He Was Running Fast.
Counsel Torrey devoted some 20‘ min-
utes to a cross-examination relating to
the signals, which tended to show that
Engineer Goodwin had violated the rules
of the road in not reducing the speed of
his train when being unable to iscern
the distant signal. The rule provides
that when a signal cannot be seen the
engineer shall reduce his speed to eight
miles an hour, and roceed with caution.
He stated that he s ut ofi’ his-steam, but
did not put on brakes.
Counsel Torrey—Do you not consider
that you were violating the rules of the
road- in running by two signals on a
fo y night that you could not see?
ngineer Goodwin—l consider that I
had a clear track, as the passenger train
was due at Fresh Pon , and no other
trains were ahead except a freight which
was an hour ahead of me.
A FATAL NUMBER.
New York Woman Loses a Fortune and
suicides. '
Tnlmm, Sept. 16. -- Particulars have
been received here of the suicide of Miss
Jane Armstrong of New York, after she
had lost a fortune at Monte Carlo. Miss
Armstrong was an orphan, 26 years old.
She sailed frdm New York early in Au-
gust, aud after hevi Iislted friends
here went to Ventimigl a, about twenty
miles from Nice. She first went to ‘the
casino at Monte Carlo, Sept. 3. She
pla ed insanely the first day and won
10 francs on the “24.” She returned,
howeyer, and began betting again on the
“24.” She lost steadily until her whole
fortune of $260,000 was one.
As the proprietor too in her last gold
coin she rose and left the casino. To an
acfiuaintance, who met her at the door
an remarked on her palcness, she said
she had lost all, and was coming to
friends in this city, who would see that
she got back to the United States. She
did not come here, however, but shot
herself in a room in a villa at Ventimi-
glia.
The usual efiort was made at Monte
Carlo to suppress the news, and the re-
port was sent out that the Miss Arm-
strong who had killed herself was an
elderly lady who had left Monte Carlo
for Trieste some days before, and had
committed suicide there. Two men, said
to be Englishmen, who had lost all their
money at the casino, sprang into the sea
on the night of Miss Armstrong’s sui-
cide. These suicides are also denied by
the Monte Carlo people. '

FACTORIES BURNED.
New York Concerns Sums: from the De-
vourlng Element.
NEW YORK, Sept. 16.-—A fire which
broke out early this morning caused the
destruction of George Meyer’s carriage
factory in the rear of 225 and 227 East
36th street. The flames communicated
with two, furniture factories on East 37th
street, badly damaging them. The fire
broke out in the engine room of the car-
riage factory, and owing to the inflam-
mable material in the building spread '
rapidly. The carriage factory. was com-
pletely gutted. ' ' .
The furniture factories damaged be-
longed to F. Vogei & Co. and Charles
Fels. The flames burned through the
three up er stories of both factories.

' and National Campaign.
——
HE URGES AGITATION OF THE
BANKING SYSTEM.
B. B. Smalley Talks on His Party’s
Prospects.
'WASHING'I‘ON, Sept. 1.6—A gentleman
who has just returned from Bar Harbor,
and who there had an extended conver-
sation with Mr. Blaine some days before
the Maine election, confirms a statement
which had previously been received here
by Mr. Elaine’s friends that the condi-
tion- of the distinguished sta‘tesman’s
health is very far from satisfactory.
This, it is said, was the sole reason why
he failed to register and vote. Speaking
of what would be the robabie outcome
of the election, Mr. laine distinctly
foreshadowed the result. He asked his
visitor what the national Republican
committee thought of the outlook in
New York and elsewhere. The reply was
that the committee would like to hear
what he thought about Maine before ex-
ressing a final opi‘on on the probabili-
ies of the situation. ' . .
' “The up roaching- contest in , this
State," Mr. laine is quoted as saying,
“has no relation to the national situation
no: to issues that must be settled by the
electors of the whole country. The re.
sult, therefore, cannot be said to have
any bearing upon the November election
unless it should disclose a striking ma-
jority one way or the other. I look for
the election of the Republican candidate
for governor by about 11,000 plurality.
If it should go over 12,000 it -wouid be
a significant Republican victory. If it
should go below 9000 it would be a sig-
nificant Democratic gain. But,” con-'
tinued Mr. Blaine, “the result would not
be conclusive as to the national election,
even should the Democrats succeed in
electing their candidate for governor.
They did that in 1880, but Gen. Garfield
carried the state.
Mr. Blaine is further reported to have
said that the national committee and
speakers did not seem to fully appreciate
the importance of the issue raised by the
Democrats in their declaration in favor
of the repeal of the ten per cent tax on
the circulation of State banks. He ad-
vised that it be made more prominent,
expressing the belief that its discussion
would be beneficial, especially in the
New England and Middle States. He
warmly commended that portion of Pres-
ident Harrison’s letter which treated of
that plank of the Democratic platform
and pointed out the dangers-in the path
of a revival of currency of one value in
one part of the country. of another in
another part and oftentimes of no value
at all, as the notehoider- learned to his
sorrow.
SMALLEY’S VIEWS.
The Defeated Candidate for Governor of
Vermont on His Party’s Prospects.
S'r. ALBANS, Vt., Sept. 16.—Hon. Brad-
ley B. Smaiiey, secretary of the national
'Démocr'atic candidate for governor ‘ of
Vermont, says of the political outlook:
“About the outlook in New York I can
. only say that from the Democratic stand-
point everything logks very favorable.
The result of the recent elections in the
states of Alabama, Vermont, Arkansas
and Maine seems very clearly to show
that the tide is with the Democrats. The
New York Democrats, in my opinion, are
thoroughly and heartily unite and do-
ing a great deal of hard work. The re-
ports irom Indians are that the organi-
zation of that State is in a fine condition,
and our peepie there are extremely con-
fidenteof success.
“As to whether there will be any fight
in Alabama or any other Southern state
largely depends on the so-cailed ‘Kolb
Convention,’ to be held within .a day or
two, and in my opinion there is no ques-
tion as to any Southern State, though in
many of them a warm contest will be
waged. I think that the same influences
that carried Wisconsin for us in the last
gubernatorial election will again carry it
this year. Illinois Democrats are mak-
ing a hard fight, and they seem very con-
fident of success. The two Dakotas, Ne-
braska and Kansas are very likely to be
taken away from either Harrison or
Cleveland by the fusion in those states.
It is practically admitted that Nevada
will go 101' Weaver.“ -
