Tolesbos Et 878.. . , East Morrison street from the bridge , east to Grand avenue la today In a con dition that makes Jt Imperative that a general rebuilding It one b started 'or the thoroughfare cloaed. For weeks the city engineer's force has been try ing to keep the highway In a condition that would warrant It being left open, but the elevated roadway la deteriorate ' Ing too rapidly. This morning a heavily loaded wagon crashed through the u- perstrutcure --at a point opposite the Btudebaker warehouse, near East Sec ond street, and half a dostn plank were splintered before a tough boarld : waa met that prevented the big .wheel going - clear through the roadway. ' The driver ' pried bis load out of the hole and went oil., leaving the big , gap in the center - of the street with nothing to warn truffle that danger .existed, and for aeveral -hours the busiest street on the east sldo held a deadfall that any unsuspecting driver might kill his horse In. For 100 feet near the point where the ' break occurred this morning the road way has sagged away from the slde '. walk, leaving a long gap wide enough to take the heaviest wheel, and no aign bar been placed to warn teamsters of . their danger. At night the danger, -a , greatly increased. ' At no place) on the thoroughfare between the. bridge and -Orand avenue Is there a spot that Is not '.. likely to break through under the strain of heavy traffic, and even the business men chiefly Interested In keeping the , street open are. ready to admit .that the rotten roadway cannot long be left open to traffic, however great the need. The policy of patching breaks with new planks, and of keeping the street open despite Its weakened condition, already '' has resulted In ' tamed ' horses and wrecked vehicles and the acute atage has been reached. More heroic treat, ment ia required If serious accidents are .". to be avoided. - ; : . There Is'not; the .same need for East Morrison street' to be kept open that lies-existed until the last week, aa East w; Water street has been opened to Wash ington street and traffic can now find an outlet to the east aide on- the new macadamised highway. To a great ex- '-Vtent Kaat Water street 4s being -used. " "and only the drivers of lighter vehicle and the teamsters - who d not - under . atand the condition of Morrison street use It between East Water street and Orand avenue. ' Many, however, do not t appreciate ' the danger, and te protect neer will take Immediate action. f ASSOCIATION'S. PROGRAM.
