The Great STORM kim nridra.

The contract for the construction of the
great Storm King mountain railroad
bridge across the Hudson river, to which
the NEWS has several times referred, has
been made. When completed the new
bridge WILDE one of the most picturesque
structures in the world. Two stone piers
VIII be built in the river $50 feet apart,
which, with piers on shore, will sustain a
triplescantileYer. The lower chord of the
bridge will be 153 feet above the water,
and the single railroad track will be 70
feet higher. The slender iron rods
and columns of which the struc-
ture will be made will look like
spider web threads at that height
from the river, and when viewed
from up the river will form a delicate
tracing on the darK background of Storm
King mountain. The side spans are $40
feet, or One-sixth of a mile long. The
whole bridge is nearly 1000 feet long.
The bridge will be built at the height
mentioned because the grades on the APP
proaches Will be easy, and because navi-
CATION will not be INSTRUCTED. The cost
of the bridge, with about 20 miles of track
necessary to connect it with the railroad
will amount to S6,0OO,0 600. The money
has been raised by bonds issued by the
New England and Southwestern Railroad
Company.
