The Railroad Bridge ct Fairfield


WATERvILLE, April "A, 1873.
1,.or. vas considerable excitement here yes
+or,.v when the news came that the Kendalps
Mills Railroad bridge was on tire, and train
was Immediately made taking on a large num-
Der of citizens and students, but they arrived
only in time to see the bridge fall. From the
time the bridge caught fire only twenty minutes
elapsed before it was destroyed. A brisk wind
al abe time drove the flames with almost light
ming speed across the bridge from west to east
and the dry timbers burned almost instantly1
A work train left here this morning to clear
away the debris. The part of tue bridge de-
stroyed was one thousand feet long and was
valued at about $4,000, having been rebuilt
within the past two years. Its place will prob
ably be supplied by an iron bridge to cost about
$4,000. There is however, some talk of having
the train cross the river at Waterville thereby
disseminating the bridge at Kendall's Mills,
and laying track from here to the Mills on the
other side of the river, a distance of three
miles. In that ease but one bridge will be nee
essary, as the Bangor train could back in from
the Winslow side. The talk, however, is mere
speculation, as no one knows at present what
will be done in the matter. Besides the loss of
the bridge to the railroad considerable loss
will be felt from the inability to transport the
large quantity of lumber and other freight
which has heretofore been carried over the road.
The loss of the bridge will probably necessitate
the placing of another boat on the route from
Bangor to Boston for the purpose of carrying
freight,as the Boston boats thus far the present
season have been unable to take all the freight
that was offered them, and if more freight is
thrown upon them there will be no other way
of meeting the demands of the public than by
placing another boat upon the route immediate
ly. The expense of carting freight at Ken
dalrs Mills over the toll bridge will be two
great for any profit to the road, asst will prob
ably DO three months before trains will run over
it. KAI GAR.
