Tough luck was encountered by
the Morris Knudson Construction
Company Wednesday of last week
upon completion of their work for
the Great Northern Railway this
side of Jennings.
The crew had been working at
that place the last five or six weeks
eliminating the curve in the rail
road and had started to load their
machinery upon finishing the work.
The lotion shovel had been success
fully loaded on a flat car for trans
fer and a large crane was being
used to remove the ramps leading
up on the end of the car The crane
hit the shovel, sending it over into
a ditch which had water in it, the
usual run-off at this time of the
year.
Besides taking in quite bit of
mud and water the shovel was quite /
badly broken up, a result of that
much weight falling. A large crane
was brought in from Whitefish for
getting the shovel out and removing
10 the Neils plant where it was
cleaned up and repaired, said G. f.
3ierhaus, foreman on the Morris
Inudson job.
