A Valuable Bridge Idle.

One Of the most costly pieces of prop
crty in the United States now lying idle
is probably the great railroad bridge
over the Pccos river, 200 miles west of
San Antonio, Tex The bridge, which IS
said to be next to the highest in the
world, was completed about six months
ago at a cost of 81 100000. 1t was built
by private corporation for the use Of
the Southern Pacific Company.
In addition to this bridge railroad
track leading to it was built, shorten
ing the distance between San Antonio
and FL Paso by eleven miles. After
the bridge and cutoff railroad had been
completed they were visited by Presi-
dent G. p. Huntington and number of
other prominent officials of the South
ern Pacific Company and the new prop
erty was formally accepted. In q short
time new time table was issued by the
Southern Pacific. embracing the new
cutoff and the Pecos bridge. Tickets
weEe issued for that road via Southern
Pacific and the Pecos bridge, a
fare Of fifty cents being charged
every passenger over the new
bridge After all this had been are
ranged, trains were started running
over the new route, and the announce
ment was made that the track of the
old route through the dangerous can
ons of the Rio Grandc river was to be
taken up.
But trains had been running over the
new Pecos river bridge only two weeks
when the order came from President
Huntington to abandon the new bridge
and cutoff track and Immediately re-
sumo traffic via the old route. Since
that time not Il train has crossed the
new bridge. There is much specula-
ton in railroad circles as to the cause
of this sudden and wholly and une1-
pected action on the part of President
Huntington. The solution given by
some is that Mr.. Huntington is small
stockholder in the company which
owns the bridge, and that after giving
TIC new route two-weeks' trial he
became convinced that it was valuable
property. He then started to freeze
out the remaining stockholders by
abandoning the bridge, which is of no
value whatever if not used by the
Southern Pacific Railroad.

HAD A GARTER IN His Pocket
John Henderson, dazed and wayward
Sunday school superintendent from
Somerset county, Pa. was found lying
Oh the corner of Ferry and Diamond
streetsin Pittsburg at a late hour We'd
nesday night by Policeman Lemaron.
He was lifted into the patrol wagon
and taken to the Twelfth ward police
station. A gold watch, horseshoe, q
silk stocking, and woman's garter
were found in his pocket. How the
last three articles came into his posses
sion the prisoner could not explain.
Neither could he tell what had become
of a roll of money which he said had
been intrusted to him in the interest of
the Sunday school ofwhich he is super
intendent. He has been detailed to
look up the cost of and make arrange
merts for a Christmas tree.
When Henderson arrived in Pitts
burgh he went to friend who began
telling him of the crusade against inn
moral houses. The countryman be-
came so much interested that when a
stroll through the district was proposed
he consented. The two started but
where they went, what they did, or
what they saw, had escaped the super
intendent's memory. He admitted tax
ing some mild stimulants. He could
notrecall anything about the horseshoe,
the silk stocking, and the garter, and
the Judge said that it was a queer COM
bination for a churchman to have about
him. He spent the night i'll cell, and
when he emerged in the morning and
was brought before the bar it was evi-
dent that he was not accustomed to
sleeping on planks.
"if You cannot pay the fine spoke
up the Judge, you must 60 to Jail fol
five days" His money was gone and
friends were not within reach, so he
was loaded into the patrol wagon with
other prisoners and sent off to Jail.
