OsIodqe Old Wreckaqe.

Denison, Texas, Nov. 22.-Seven
hundred and fifty pounds of 60 per
cent dynamite were exploded at tn
site of the Red River wagon inter
urban bridge yesterday in an effort
to dislodge a portion of the bridge
wrecked in the floods of 1908. The
explosive was placed in twenty-siy
iron tubes two inches in diameter
surrounding the old wreckage The
pressing of a button by James Oh
iyer superintendent of the job, ex-
ploded the $50 sticks and there
was a roaring noise and an upheayal
of a sandbar and much water. A
hole 4OX25 feet was blown in the
sandbar and it is believed that the
wrockage was dislodged and there
will be no further delay in construct
ing the bridge.
