The New York Central Lines \America's Greatest Railway System\ operating over 12,000 miles of railway in the most populous section of the'United States, employing nearly 200,000 men and equipped'with every device and facility for the safe and efficient handling of passengers and freight, are essential to the prosperity of the territory they serve. ,To continue to render the public\ and the government efficient service demands constant expenditures of millions of new capital, for a railroad is never finished except in a community that is dead. The necessary funds must be secured in competition with world-wide 'borrowing and only as the public and the government see to it that the railroads are granted rates that will provide a fair return and that regulation is constructive, will.railroad /securities attract new capital. , , X\ \For Me PuaJioSor; • OliaumontViAug. 17.—Mr. and Mrs. Thomas, Ll-olhind of Cape Vincent are the g-uetjts\ .o!

TWO ABE KILLED AS ENGINE TIPS OVER Accident Happens in the West Yards Mile and a Half Prom Gouverneur. Gouverneur, Aug. 17.—-Engineer Ambrose Lashure of Watertown and Fireman H. M. Bartholome.n of Par- ish, were instantly killed in the west yards about 5:30 this morning when their engine tipped over and rolled down an embankment. They were on west-bound freight No. 37. The train was bound from Nor- wood and was side-tracked opposite •the St. Lawrence Marble Works. The engine was detached to run on to the scale- track to bring out five box ears. . The engine backed onto the scale siding and the derailing switch was not closed. When the engine moved out it was derailed and rolled down an embankment of cinders 'about seven feet high. Both men were hurled under the coal of the tender. The train crew removed Lashure, and as it was thought that there were signs of life he was placed in an aflfomobile which happened to be passing and was rushed to this village. He was taken to the residence of S. W. Sayer hut it was found that he was dead. Bartholomew was buried under sev- eral tons of coal and a gang - of sec- tion hands worked frantically for an hour, removing the coal. He had been dead for some time when he was found. When the locomotive was derailed both men sprang- for the firemen's side of the cab to escape, through the window, -but they were too late and were carried over \with the heavy en- gine. The bodies were taken to the Sprague. &• Mott, undertaking rooms, and Coroner C. C. Bartholomew of Ogdensbm-g was notified. , Lashure was born in Macomb, a son of Oliver and the late Mrs. La- shure. He took up railroading sev- eral years ago. He qualified as an engineer about four years ago and was employed as an extra engineman. He was about 43 years of age and was unmarried. He roomed with Mr. and Mrs. Norman L. Dnimmond of 126 North Orchard street, Water- town. He is survived by his father, a farmer near Canton, and three brothers, Francis* and Otis Lashure of Macomb and Carl Lashure of Natural Bridge. He was'a member of Media- Temple in Watertown. Little is known of Bartholomew ex- cept that he was about 25 years old and was employed as an extra flre- mon. The -wrecking crew was suuimond from Watertown and cleared the tracks. As the accident happened in the west, yards and on a siding, main line traffic was not interrupted. EISHERS LANDING Fishers Landing. Aug. 17.—F. A.
