The new Rridres

Mr.. Fl. H. Burrell, Superintendent OF
Construction of the bridges now being
erected across the Downey avenue and
First street crossings of the river, arrived
in town yesterday from the North. He
says that as regards the Downey-avenue
bridge all of the superstructure is due,
and that it will be built right away.
Two of the cars containing the material
were wrecked in the recent disaster
on the Atlantic and Pacific road
at Peach Springs, but the shipments
were not badly damaged. Regarding
the First street bridge, the iron is now
en- route and may be expected here at
any day. Mr.. Burrell estimates that
both of the bridges will be completed
within sixty days.
