MASS MEE73TXG AT OHAPIN.
TttsrovLgh information Teceived by
telephone message today we learn
<that a mass meeting was held in the
town of Chapin Monday afternoon for
the purpose of starting a movement
to annex the Dutch Fork section of
Iiexington county to Newberry. Just
who started this movement we are un
able to say but we have been told that
this agitation grew out of dissatisfac- j
tion arising over the recent bill of Sen j
ator Ridgell to have the act repealed
providing for two free bridges across
flfetkida river. It is said several law *
yers and politicians from Newberry
were present and made rousing
speeches inviting the people of this
section to join with Newberry, who
they promised would give them, free
bridges and good roads.

CAUSE OP WRECK
LOOSE BEAM
\
?
Frank W. Shealy, chairman of the
railroad commission, today made the
commission's report of the Piedmont
& Northern wreck at the Enoree River
bridge last Saturday, when four
persons were killed and many others
injured. Mr. Shealy holds that the
wreck ''was brought about by either
a ibrake beam or some tie rod in the
front truck of the rear coach hanging
so near the rails and striking the end
of the iron guard rails about 30 feet
south of the Enoree River bridge.
The commission visited, the scene of
the week after it occurred. The report
follows:
"From testimony taken and information
received through reliable sour
ces, train 6 on P. & N. Railway, going
o lAl'ft
nortn on reorutu> o, isu w*ws
duJed to arrive at Enoree River bridge
(a structure about 1,000 feet long- and
about 90 feet high, all steel with concrete
abutment and piers( at 10:50 a
itl On this occasion I find the train
was dead on time. Train No 6 was
a two coach train, carrying coaches
Nos. 2022 and 2009 This train was in
charge of Conductor A F. Wilson and
i Motorman W, J Mauldin, both of
whom, hae been sworn and on oath say
they were not making more than 20 or
25 miles per hour at this specific
point. This wah also verified (by dis
interested parties, who happened to
notce this train as it was moving over
the road at this specific place.
