morning the Briggs people reconnected the
pipes and turned the natural gas into their
works, which they have been operating all

city officials to shut off the supply. Every
time the city employees attempted to dis
connect the pipes armed men from the roll
ing mill drove them way. Tuesday even

1t will be interesting to note the percent
age Of increase In the freight business done
At the Augusta freight station during he
pas. two years. From . comparison Of The
business done in 1890 with which WAS done
10 1888 a. this station, il will be seen that
there wa, an increase Of 40s per cent. In
weight received and an increase Of 3s.% Per
cent. in the earnings thereon. On the
.moun. forwarded there was an increase Of
zo9.e per cent. but an increase In eaznines
Of only i5 per cent. This wide disparity
between the inc-essein business and ths
increase in earpiuRs IL chiefly due 10 ths
shipments Of ice from this station which
sas freighied At little more than cost. The
per ceniages Of increase this year over
1889 are; On weight received l2 8 pr
cent, increase in esrnings, I5.5 per cent;
oa weight forwarded l22 per cent, increase
10 earnings 2G.S per cent.
