Great Stone Arch.

The bridge used for carrying the Wash
ington aqueduct across Cabin John Creek,
Is n stone arch of greater span than any
other In existence, being 220 icet, or 90 feet
longer than that of the Grosvenor Bridge
at Chester, England. The abutmcnts are
formed of the solid rock on each side Of
the creek. This rock Is stepped down, and
the steps are filled with concrete, on which
are the footings of the arch-bed. The
launches and abutments are lightened by
relieving arches--four on the eastern side
Of the creek, and five on the western, ex-
tending through half the thickness Of the
bridge. In mld-winter the keystone was
inserted. and it was noticed afterward that
a rise of temperature lifted the arch from
the centerlnR, which was not removed until
nearly year later. The width of the
bridge on the face Of the arch Is 20 feet
inches. The circular water-channel Is 8
feet In diameter. The bridge was designed
by Gen. NJ. c. Meigs, Engineer-in-C Chief of
the Washington Aqueduct. This aqueduct
brings the water of the Potomac River
over 10 miles, aud Is capable of supplying
l00,t 10000 gallons per day.
