physical connection between the
Detroit United railway and the
Michigan Central In Oxford, Mich,
probably will result in the connect.

be a free interchange OF freight be-

time ago. For some months past.
locomotives hauling freight have
been In operation nights on the cleo

The French had been on the opposite

French TO retreat to the opposite hill
The Germans had to build new
