Boston loses chance to develop port by stockyard petition refusal
The Boston and Maine railroad petition to erect stockyard buildings at Watertown Union Market to house 2000 horses was refused by Watertown officials. Boston business figures warn the decision will cost millions in shipping business as France and Canada Steamship Co plans to ship horses via Boston using a fleet including the Virginian Carpathia and Kansan and bring in cargo totaling millions annually.
