the ssate Of Pennsylvania has
1ust served notice upon the Erie Railway
Company that the bridge over the Delaware
river connecting Port Jervis, N. Y, with
Matamors, Pa, must be rebuilt. During

from obligation to build and maintain the
bridge.
y has lately transpired that the legislation
for that purpose is void, and that the Erie
Company mus maintain the bridge for the
privilege Of running through the State of
Pennsylvania.
a. The Lehigh and Eastern Railroad intend
70 use this bridge to enter the State of New
York and connect with the Erie Railway.
