FRENCH SEIZE
VALUABLE GOODS
Five Explosions Wreck Railroads
and Wires--Heaviest DAM
ace Since 0Ccupation.

Dusseldorf-Five separate bomb ex
plosions on the Ruhr railroads during
the night cut railway telegraph and
telephone communications, temporar.
lily disorganizing traffic. French head.
quarters said the explosions had
caused the most serious damage since
the beginning Of the occupation.
During the confusion the Germans
made a series of efforts to run the GUS
toms barrier into interior Germany,
but large quantities of goods which
the Germans were trying to get
through were seized by the French.
The explosions tore up sections of
track and blew down the wire along
side in each instance. In one case near
Bomann, a French troop train heavily
loaded, had a narrow escape. The ex-
plosions cut the line from the eastern
Ruhr to Dusseldorf, which is much
used for troop movements and the
carriage of supplies.
Four other lines were cut in the
vicinity of Hattingen.
The destruction will delay transpor-
tation for several days while the dam.
age is being repaired.
Besides these cases of violence the
French authorities report that an at
tempt was made to wreck a passenger
train lear Mayence by placing huge
pieces of iron and steel on the tracks.
