open way for the ice. and the approaches
were wefghte down by steel rails and old
iron. Until after dark a crew was busy
making the structures strong.
About noon the ice began 10 go out near
the Minnesota Point bridge II came down
the Red river in sections many yards

side OF the structure. Dynamlters were
at once put to work on II, but before they
were able to do anything IL started. II
wrecked the approach on the North Da-
kota side and demolished the under piers
OF the bridge proper. Finally effective
work was done with dynamite.
