recently introduced I'm the legislature.
TO limit the sine OF freight cars, and
a meeting will be held, Tuesday night.
I'm the board rooms TO determine what
action the bureau will take on this
proposed law. This bill would pre-
vent the railroads from hauling thous.
ands OF cars now In use and would
seriously hamper Detroit manufacture
ers. especially automobile manufac-
turers," said Arthur T. Waterfall,
chairman OF the committee. IF we
were forced to use 14-foot cars, as the
bill provides. we could put only three
automobiles In car. where we can
now carry six. There are some cars
going out OF Detroit that are IL feet
high, and well beyond the proposed
limit OF 10 fot over all. Those would
all have TO be cut down or kept out
OF the state.
Furthermore I can see no neces-
sity for any acton OF this sort. II a
railroad man obeys the rules there Ia
no danger no matter how high the
cars are built. He is not supposed TO
stand on top OF them when they are
going through tunnels or under
bridges, and there are sufficient warn
ings 10 let him know when they are

the air brakes now required there is
no necessity for man going on top

worst since the big storm in 1888. In
some residences the inmates stayed
up all night keeping fires to save the
water pipes from freezing, and in
nearly every instance it was impossi-
bic to save them. During the night
the mercury dropped to 20 below and
complaints are heard from all parts
VI the town about bursted water pipes
and fixtures.
Extra precaution was taken during
the day and night by the city author
tiles to keep the waterworks system
open to avoid a lack of water in case
of fire. The pumping engine used at
the pump station was fired up all day
and night. In spite of the efforts of
the water commissioner to avoid
freezing at the station. the big en-

times forty miles an hour and no

the fierceness of the cutting wind.
