Mud Creek sewer caves Ah'
The Mud Creek sewer caved in Friday
night after the shower at a point just
south of jefferson street on Railroad ave-
nue.. The cause OF the. caving was the
rain which washed into the open trench.
The concrete work withstood the pressure,
but the open ditch, which had been
loosened by the passing street cars. easily
slipped in. The ditch is about thirteen
feet in width and fully eighteen feet deep.
On the brink of the trench was a new
concrete mixer, which fell into it when the
cavlng occurred. This mixer had not yet
been placed securely in position So far
this season the company has had very lit
tie trouble from rain and the work has
progressed with considerable success. IL
Is feared that with the present rains the
difficulties will be greatly increased
1t will require some time for the COM
pany to reach the point where the trench
passes over to the west side of the tracks
and until this point is safely passed it Is
thought much trouble like that of Friday
night will be experienced. The jar OF the
heavy street ears is sufficient to cave in
the soil.
Last night an extra gang Of men worked
all night clearing the ditch and getting
ready for the laying of cement past the
point caved. 1t win require several days
extra work at this point, oven If no fur
ther trouble occurs.
Consistent gains In the receipts OF cattle
and sheep at the South Omaha markets
indicate that 1910 will be a record-brealSer
in both lines. UP to date the cattle has in
creased IS, lis head which Is sufficient to
pass the best record year II 1t continues.
The increase in the number OF sheep is also
very great, reaching at present 1Ss. ST. This
easily passes all previous records. In spite
of the large runs the market has been gem
orally excellent. Good prices have been paid
for all fair to good grades of stock.
In hogs. the South Omaha market has
lost 2s9.754 head, which is large. but not
larger than the proportionate losses at
other markets.
