RAILWAY APPEAL BOARD.

(Per United Press Association.) DUNEDIN, March 21.

A sitting of the South Island Railway Appeal Board opened to-day, when an appeal by W. McLeod, ex-cadet, agaiust his dismissal, was heard. The circumgtances of the case showed that on December 24th, 1906, at Waikouaiti, McLeod lowered the signal "clear" without first ascertaining whether the line was clear. As a matter of fact, a porter who had been shunting a few hours previously neglected to lock the points, and as a result of the clear signal the driver of a goods train ran into the points standing at half cock, the engine and two waggons being derailed. For the appellant it was contended that he simply carried «ut the instruction of the stationmaster and that the punishment was more severe than the circumstances warranted. Decision was reserved.
