HEBRON dam. BREAKS,
CAUSING Big DAMAGE
RAILWAY COMPANY, FEARING
TRACK WOULD BE WASHED
OUT, SENT WREckER

This morning at 2:15 o'clock, big
irrigation dam at Hebron, N. NJ, about
IL miles south Of Ration, gave way
against the pressure of the immense
body OF water that had backed up
up against it. The first break was
small but about o'clock this morning
the Red River, a stream into which
the waters from the dam naturally
run, had risen two feet.
The breaking Of this dam means
serious l5ss for the tanners Of the
Hebron district, as it was expected
to make this year the most successful
in the history of that section, through
the use Of the dam, which was com
pleted last year. the sudden breaking
Of the structure will cast a shadow Of
encouragement over the agricultur-
lists.
The Red River, into which the wa
ters from the dam emptied, runs along
the right Of way Of the Santa Fe Rail
way company at Maxwell and Spring.
er. The breaking Of the dam has caus-
ed considerable anxiety to the local
railway officials. A wrecking crew
with a load Of ties and other equip
ment was dispatched to Naxewll this
morning about 10 o'clock to protect
the railway company against delay in
case the waters Of the Red River
should rise any higher.
Late this afternoon the local Off
cials stated that practically all danger
from this source had been passed and
that the breaking Of the dan
would not affect the railway traffic
