"THE FAIR 00 SIMCOE ST. S. LOOSENED ICE "BOOMED" IN RIVER OFF BUFFALO Buffalo, Jan, 24.--After two tugs had worked their way today out through the slush ice that blocks the harbor entrance, they returned to a point in the river near the foot of Main Street, and proceeded to "boom" the loosened ice out into the lake to open wa- ter to a passage down the Niag- ara River. A considerable. quanti- ty of the ice was moving down toward the big cataract this after- noon, The booming operation is put into effect by lashing the sterns of the two tugs together, so that the bows diverge outward, leaving a wide space between them for the ice, The tugs then move forward, shoving the ice before them.
