Icicle Damages Tin Mill

A TWO-TON icicle, which had formed upon the huge stack at the Carnahan tin mill, says a Cincinnati paper, fell to-day, crashing through the roof, disabling the machinery so that the mill will have to remain idle for a week. The icicle was formed gradually by the exhaust which escaped at the side of the stack. It grew so heavy that it was finally unable to bear its own weight. Several men in the mill at the time had narrow escapes from death.
