'While the tlredges do not come very close to the bridges, parts of the ted that they do not attack slough off Into the deepened channel, and thus the stonework Is undermined. It is asserted that the dredging In White liver near the Aforria street bridge Is largely responsible for the break in the main of the Indianapolis Water Company at that The sand was pumped out from under the pipe, which had to carry lla own weight, there being no support underneath. The main was originally laid on the vivcr bottom. In connection with this Investigation the board'wlll have to establish the prop erty lines alons the river.

There was a peculiar freight wreck near the I. V. crossing of the Belt railroad this afternoon. A caboose was wrecked and up ended and remained balanced In the air at Vt angle of about 45 degrees, with apparently no supports to keeD It In such a. position.

The trains were the sections of an extra freight. The first sec tion, drawn by engine No. came off the Belt road from the east and stopped for orders on the curve leadintr to the I. track. Te second section, running light, with engine WK, was following some distance behind.

Because of the curve th" engineer from his side of rab could not see that the first section bad stopped until It was too late to avoid a collision. The engine plowed Into the caboose and upended it. In front of th caboose wan a heavy iron coal car, and an examination snowea tbat this car was holding the cnttoose in its nositlon Th. only damage done was to the caboose. The wrecking train was called out and the track wait cleared In a short time.

The loss to the big New York companies alone Is conservatively estimated at from S30.000.000 to $40,000,000, with all the probabilities in favor of a much larger sum.
