Chamber of Commerce Dis
cusses improvements at
Regular Meeting.
new COMMITTEES NAMED
MANY SPEAKERS URGE BRIDGE
FROM FIRST STREET TO Lo-
GUST AVENUE.

There was a very large attendance
at the regular meeting of the Cham
ber of Commerce last night, the large
attendance being due to the interest
in the suggested new bridges for
Fairmont
While the meeting was to discuss
the matter of securing a new bridge
over Coal Run, it soon developed that
public sentiment was against building
a bridge over Coal Run without max
ing provision for a bridge over Mo-
nongahela River at the same time,
and 1t was even further suggested
that bridge from First street to Lo-
Gust avenue should also be provided
for and the suggestion was received
with considerable favor.
A committee appointed at a special
meeting last week reported that IN
yestigation showed that the city of
Fairmont had paid into the county
bridge fund during the past six years
over $4,000 in addition to spending
several thousand dollars on repairs to
the bridges within the city limits, and
that the county had not spent a sim
gle dollar on the bridges within the
city during that period.
The meeting was unanimous in the
opinion that it would be only just and
fair for the county court to appropri
ate substantial amount toward the
cost of building the new brloges.
This committee was continued and
instructed to ascertain from the Buck
hannon & Northern Railroad, the Bal
timore & Ohio Railroad. the Mononga-
hela Valley Traction Company and
others directly benefited by the con-
struction OF the bridges how much
each would contribute toward the cost
of their construction.
The chairman was authorized to
appoint another committee to recon-
mend to the chamber the character
of bridges to be constructed, to Sc
cure sketches of the same, to ascer-
tain the cost of construction and the
expense OF securing any rights of way
that may be necessary.
Another meeting of the chamber
will be called as soon as the commit
tees are ready to make their reports.
Robert D. Hennen, of the Mononga-
hela Valley Engineering Company. ex-
hibited plans for the proposed bridge
across Coal run, which he said would
cost approximately 100000. These
plans provide for a beautiful concrete
lures in Pittsburgh and to a bridge
that is now being constructed in Nor
gantown.
A big banquet may be held in con-
nection with the annual meeting Of
the Chamber of Commerce which is
scheduled for Thursday. May 13, when
directors for the association will be
elected.

TAKEN BY FRENCH
on WEST FRONT
General Joffre Pushing At
tacks From Three Differ
ent Points.
SPRING BATTLE BEGINS
GERMANS MAKE STUBBORN RE-
g. stsTANcE, BUT LOSE MANY
MEN.
(Ry Associated Press.l }

Z LONDON, April 9.-The French
movement between the Meuse and
the Lorraine frontier is developing
distinct offensive. with General Joffre
pushing his advance, while the Ger.
mans are making fierce counter at
tacks.
This is the substance OF the latest
dispatches reaching here from the
4 Continent.
IA According to analysis of the situa-
ton by the French general staff, the
French offensive movement of the last
few days has been on three sectors.
The first Is on a front of II miles to
the east OF Verdun, the line running
southeast from q point near Etain;
the second on front between st.
Mihie1 and Pont-A-Mousson, where
the French are attacking from the
south, and third is in the north in
the vicinity of Gussainville. where the
French now dominate the valley OF
the Orne, and are threatening the rail-
road beyond the river Orne with at
tack
The French advance is thus being
pressed from three bases in three diff.
ferent directions.
According to Paris official reports,
Frenc hattacks on fronts many miles
long have occupied new ground, meas
uTing from several hundred yards to
two miles deep. That the German re-
sststattce to these advances Is stub
born; is indicated by the French re,
port that the Germans on one point of
the attack left 1000 dead on the field.
Dispatches from Hungary express
the belief that the Russians are fight
ing their battles in the Carapthians
for de eliberate political ends, the chief
of which is to sever Hungary from
the dual monarchy. ......-s
Dispatches from Athens set forth
that the allied fleet facing the Dardan-
elles is not far from Bolair on the
Gallipoh penincula, but this news Is
without official confirmation.
Nothing has come to hand to con.
firm the rumors circulated yesterday
that Germany had declared war on
Holland.
