"CASUALTiES" IN BLOWING UP
OF WHITEWATER RIVER BRIDGE

There wero casualties attached upon
the falling of the towers OF the suspen-
sion bridge over the Whitewater river,
between Valley Junction and Eliza
BEETHOVEN, Ohio, recently, when the
bridge was blown up with dynamite.
A colony Of turtles in the river mud
were annihi1ated. A pair of monkey
faced owls had their nest In the top
Of one Of the stone towers in the
bridge. When the first blast shook
the tower the owls flew bewilderedly
into the daylight. A flock of crows
bounced upon them and killed one.
The other flew to earth and was
captured.
The bridge had withstood the
storms and ice packs Of half cen
fury. 1t survived the great flood Of
1913, which made playthings Of other
bridges that spanned the Ohio river
tributaries in this vicinity.

COAL MOVEMENT SHOWS
SLIGHT IMPROVEMENT

Slight Improvement in the car situa-
ton is the outstanding feature of last
weeks coal market, according to Coal
Age. The car movement is expected
to improve slowly, but prophecy is not
safe with SO many uncertainties
ahead" the publication states in its
weekly production review.
The Baltimore and Ohio railroad
seems the best equipped Of any. 1t is
running about 40 per cent Of tlll
strength. but the Pennsylvania rail-
road is giving the poorest car service.
Business on the Lake Erie railroad
has made some improvement and
much Is needed for fears are becom-
ing quite acute as to what will hap
pen next winter and even earlier II
transportation facilities do not i'm
prove. Coal Is still being commandeer
err by the railroads.
