This morning the bridge-builders began making pre- parations to demolah the old wood- en bridge across the G. T. R. tracks preparatory to moving into its place the new steel structure, which has been in. readiness for some time. The new bridge stands two feet higher than the old one. The extra. tw° feet in height would make it well nigh. if not utterly impossible for leams and vehicles to cross, and the people took a. ï¬rm stand on their rights, declaring no bridge should re- place the old one, till satisfactory arrangements were made regal-M the approaches. -. - ous,, “I r- 7 At noon the bridge-builders began to tear down the old struc- ture.

They returned, however, made a rush for the ï¬remen. and succeeded, in cutting the hose†thus putting the brigade out of action. New hose V9.8 procured, and the attack renewed. ‘Again the bridgemen were dispersed. rThey returned, rdhfored by a G.T.R. mine, which they attempted to hitch to the end of the bridge to pull {t to pieces. The iceâ€"cold water was too much for them, hawewr, and they were forced to_ retreat. 7A__L__ FOUOH'I‘ RAIIROADERS WITH HOSE CGUNTYI wRiESPONDENCB v-“ J The "G.'T.â€" R; authorities threaten to 61min an injunction to restrain the actibn of the yillagen. ‘ mammmm PINE .
