RAILROAD CROSSING GUARDED BY POLICE sev- Gatetender Fails to Appear and Trains Menace Lives of Factory Employes. But for the vigilance of the police department and providing a guard at «city expense, the ‘‘death trap” Wash- ington street railroad crossing, scene of the Claughsey tragedy and numer- ous narrow escapes, would have been entirely unprotected between 6 and 7 o'clock this morning. During this period there is unusually heavy traffic over the crossing of factory workers, teams and automobiles. There is-also considerable railroad traffic. Not- withstanding this, trains passed with- out a sign of gates being lowered and the shanty provided for the gate-tend- er was unoccupied. It was not until Policeman Meddrick Perry, taken from street duty, arrived at the scene that there was a systematic warning given of the approach of trains. Policeman Perry remained on duty from 6:20 to 7 o’clock. At that time he was relieved by Cornelius Clancy, night gatetender at the Main street crossing, just off duty after twelve hours of gervice. He was detailed to take charge at Washington street un- til someone could be secured to re- lieve him. No explanation was given by rallroad officlals as to why the gates were unprotected prior fo his arrival. This morning’s incident is but one of 'many coming to the attention of the police recently in which negligence of gate-tenders stands out prominent- 1y, has resulted in tragedles or narrow escapes as well as causing the ire of officials and the public to be aroused. There will be a joint meeting of the Holy Name society and women of St. Joseph’s parish at 7:30 tonight in parish hall for the purpose of making arrangements for a whist, social and dance soon after Easter. and vice'l ‘Special Exhibit of Spring Models In Our _ CLOAK AND SUIT DEPT Every handsome style in Tailored Suits, Coats and Dresses for 1917 is mow here ready for your inspection.
