It's height in the middle CT the river is 135 feet
above high water Now and then vessel Will
strike the structure. AMI occasionally has to
mouse Its topmast in order to go under safely.
1t Is hoped that the Secretary OF War will con-
sent to the same height in the of the
bridge. although IL is contended that the currents
in the neighborhood of COrear3 Hook make it
difficult for masters OF vessels TO guide their
craft directly in the middle Of the river so that
they will be able to pass under the bridge at
the highest point. There will be a substantial
saving in expense If height Of 13J feet instead
of 40 feet, is permitted.
The other question relates TO the action begun
20 prevent the consumption of the purchase of
the rights and property OF the Uhlmann Com
pany. The right of the Commissioners to make
the purchase is expressly granted in the law
authorizing the construction OF the bridge. and
the only questions for the court to consider are
whether the price paid Is too high and whether
the bridge could be wisely and advantageousy
built without infringing on the lines laid down
by the company for the structure it planned 10
build. On both points the Commissioners were
able TO make up their minds without great diff
ficulty. and their judgment is not likely to be
impeaChed
