! BRIDGE COLlAPSfS
The Bridge on Lonk Prairie
River Near Motley
Goes Down

One span of the sixty-two foot
bridge across the Long Prairie river
about mile south Of Motley broke
down Monday and il now lying on
the river bottom. For some tine the
bridge has been considered unsafe,
and just few days previous it came
near going down whom thresbing
rig was taken across 1t. It was
necessary to attach long rope to the
machine and have horses pull It across
from the shore, as with the dead
weight of horses added to the weight
of the machine the bridge would
surely have broken down. At the
time OF the accident Monday, q boy
was driving eighteen head of cattle
across the bridge and all bet four had
reached the south span of the bridge
when the north span went down.
The four went down with it, but,
with the exception of one calf which
had q leg broken and had to be shot
as a consequ once, aid not suffer any
serious injury. !
Superintendent of Roads and Conf
struction Phil 5. Randall was at
Motley Tuesday and Wednesday to
help plan some threstle work t. take
tho place of the span of the bridge
which went down and other work to
strengthen the other span SO that the
school children and light loads can
Cross the river. When another bridge
is constructed there it will have to be
longer as the river is something like
1s6 feet wide, the old bridge spanning
just 62 feet of the river and the
abutmeuts to the bridge going far out
into the river. It will be some tim Q,
however, bef re a new bridge will be
built there. Motley's treasury having
Teen pretty well drained of funds by
the construction of the bridge across
the Crow Wing river.

NAT TTOCK WASDEPOSfD
Woolen Mill, Moved From
Pillsbury to st. Cloud,
Closed

For some time past the directors of
the st. Cloud Woolen Mills Go. !,
Tine. have been endeavoring to
straighten ont the company's Affairs.
which have been in somewhat OF 4
tangle due to alleged poor business
management, ur lack of any manage
ment. says the St. Cloud Times. At
q meeting held two or three weeks
ago. F. W. Mattock was deposed is
manager by unanimous vote of the
directors, who have themselves since
then been attempting to ring light
out Of darkness. This was found
difficult for the reason that of the
SO, 600 stock issued BY the company.
e6 $40 was held by Mr.. Mattock. MI.
Mattock, however, has 6nslly agreed
to q settlement and has turned his
stock over to J. D. Sullivan. Wbo will
sell same with view to satisfy ing
two mortgages against the mill
machinery, one for 5000 and interest
held by A. Rossman, of Chat6eld,
Ainr esota, and one for $400 and
interest, held by the First National
Bank of Long Prairie. When the
company was first formed, Mattock is
said to have represented that the
machinery was free of eEc1mbrance of
any sort and in exchange for his
tnrnlng same over to the st. Cloud
Wooden Mills, he wss given 90, 500
in stock and the position OF mansger
with q salary of $l00 q month.
There has been q disposition on the
part ct some of the directors of the
company to prosecute Mattock for
selling mortgaged property, but the
settlement above referred to was at
length agreed to at meeting of the
directors of the company and Mr..
4attock held In the Commercial Club
rooms Saturday, evening.
The next step following the sale of
Mattock's stock, if same is accom-
plished. and the satisfaction of the
mortgage referred to, will be an
endeavor to find a buyer for the
company's remaining property and
stock. Nest Of the wool which was on
hand was sold fortnight or longer
since.
MIR. Mattock has not announced
his future plans.
