Brown on Tues- day flled with Clerk Parsons of the superior court his finding in the i vestigation of the railroad wreck at Stoningten last Thursday on the New York, New Haven and - ford railroad, in which Brakeman J. J. Connelly of Boston and Engine Hostler Cecil Cheney of New London were killed. In his wrltten opinion + he places much of the, direct responsibility for the wreck upon the flagman, Clarence Simpson, who, it 18 shown, was incom- petent for this position. In a further discussion of the opinion on ‘fuesday afternoon the coroner stated thay Simpson, it appears from the evidence, would have had time enough to get back and flag the approaching ex- press, as it was shown that he had from five to fifteen minutes to flag the train in, but it did not appear that he made any speed to get back with his flag to warn the express, The cotoner also blames the railroad for failure to have thelr signal appa- ratus at this dangerous point properly nspected and for not having adequate saleguards provided, Text of the Opinion. The coroner concludes his report as follow: Stonington Junction is dangerous on account _of the curve by which it is {approachied from the west; the safe- | guards deainst aceidents privided by the railway company were not ade- quate at this location. Provided the flagman from any cause could not get bas nough to flag an approach- ing train, the distant signal failing to work properly as is this case, there seems to have been nothing to stop a train from a collision under the conditions of July the defective distant signal was given No. 32 at any of the tower stations between Stonington and New London. Flagman Simpson was incompetent and not qualified by instruction or ex- perience to be given the responsibility of protecting the rear end of a train. The speed of No. 32 around this curve was excessive. Frequent and thorough inspection of the mechanism operating the signals would have closed the defect in this ehain. I find that the death of J. J. Con nelly and Cecil Cheney was due to th madequate provision by the New York, New Haven & Hartford R. R. company of safeguards against ac- cident at Stonington Junction and in employing a man for the position of flagman without proper examination, instruction G experience. Summing Up the Evidence. The coroner sums up the evidence follows. J. J. Connelly was a brakeman on extra No. 406, eachbound. from Midway to Boston; Cecil Cheney was in charge of the locomotive being taken along With this freight traln to take the place of the disabled locomative of an- other freight train waiting at Stoning- ton.

Signals Didn't Always Work Right. “Frederick S. Wilbur, towerman at Stonington, testifies that at 4 a. m. he found a chain near the tower broken that was connected with one of the wires operating the distant signal; { that he notified the train despatcher at Providence, and the repair man at Westerly, and tried ineffectually to re- pair it himself; that he did not know his distant signal was not responding i to the lever, as it could operate if one wire was disconnected, and the lever seemed to work all right; that he had { not time to go and examine the distant stgnal. a3 his duties at the tower would not allow him to leave: that these sig- nals do not always work satisfactortly especially in warm_ weather; that he coild not see the distant signal from the tower on account of the curve, and that his home signal was set at ‘dan- ger;' that No. 32 came along at the rate of 50 to 55 miles an hour with no anpearance of slowing up; that he told Flagman Simpson No. 32 was about due at Mystic when Simpson was leay- ing his caboose. Flagmar. Was Not Competent. “Flagman Simpson testifies that he was hired one week ago and given a book of rules; that he was hired as a brakeman on the Old Colony road; that he was not examined as to His | knowledge of the duties required af him; that this was his first trip over this section; that he had never acted as flagman before: that no one informed him that No. 32 was due when he w. at Stonington junction, or that train was to siop there: that when he went back with his flag he did not take any torpedoes or fuses.” DESCENDED FROM TWO OLD INDIAN FAMILIES Tuesday as Result of a Shock.
