WEEKS HAPPENINGS
NEWS or TIE WEEK IN a CON-
DENSED FORM.
Immense Draw Bridge of Milwau-
kee Road Launched at Chamber
Iain-Pile Drivers Will Soon be at
Work on East Side Of the River

The A by 500 boat for the draw IL
the railroad crossing of the milwaukee,
company at Chamberlain was Launched
in the presence of about $500 people I'M
der the direction of Bridge Builder
Drum. The boat had been built on a
bank fully fifteen above the river, but
She settled down the incline smoothly
and easily, accommodating but little water
ahead of her. Not a drop struck her
deck.
1t will take several weeks yet to finish
the boat, as but comparatively little Is
done on her deck. This, however, can
be done in the water as well as In her
old position, where she prevented the
driving of piling from the east bank OF
the river for the ~trestle.
The pile drivers now will begin work
from the east bank, and by the time they
are through the boat will be finished.
The work of building the trestle from
the Chamberlain depot across American
Creek to the position where the draw
boat was constructed has been completed
as TO the piIing and string timbers, II
is now ready for the ties and rails.
The depot will have to be moved from
the south TO the north side of the rail
road yards so that incoming trains will
be able to continue across the river With
out extra switching. Several weeks ago
n couple of large sidings were construct
ed about a mile east of Chamberlain, and
during the past several days trains have
been unloading ties from these tracks.
Several hundred cars of ties have ar
rived, and there is now a veritable noun
tain of ties on the ground. These work
men are engaged in stripping the bark
from and getting in readiness for use.
No ties or rails will be taken west of
the river until the bridge is completed,
by which time it is expected that the
grading contracted for west of the river
will bdSe been completed. Trains will
then cross the ties and rails as wOrkmen
are able to lay the track. The laying of
the track will be done in record time
when commenced. 1t is expected by the
contractors that from five to six miles of
track will be laid per day, and that
will be running over the line for
about eighty miles west of the river by
the fore part of August.
After that for some time, however,
pile drivers and men will be engaged ut
in driving bull dog piers in
the river to protect the trestle from the
action of high water, ice or drift. In
mense quantities of rock and rubbish
will be placed along the 1900 feet If
trestle west of the island and Il com-
plete dam made which will make the
trestle permanent in character. On the
east side of the island the bull dog piers
will be placed in large numbers, the eff
feet being to form a funnel which will
divert the bulk of the water against the
big draw boat.
