Every time an accident occurs some one starts a report that somebody else was to blame and this is especially true in railroad accidents. People are always certain the engineer did not whistle, or ring the bell, or observe signals. Such a report has been circulated in Greenville and Atlantic concerning Engineer Charles Spofford whose train killed the Lytle brothers at Atlantic on Christmas day. Such an accusation is nonsensical in the extreme and it gives us pleasure to note that he states, in the Meadville Tribune, that he blew the whistle, as usual, and that the bell, which rings by air pressure, did not cease to ring from Stony Point until after the accident accurred. Engineer Spofford says his statement wilt be corroborated by the road superintendent, who was riding on his engine, and Conductor D.

B. Coyle and Engineer F. E. Trace, who were standing near the Atlantic station when No. 7 passed.

Mr. Spofford says his train was running 65 miles an hour. BLATT WINS OUT. The ex-Sonator Lands a Plum at EILwood City, H. S.
