two Again. there has been great increase in
the size and weight OF locomotives and the
length Of passenger and freight trains In the last
ten fifteen years on all great railway lines.
Hence the Grand Trunk has recently deemed IT
prudent 10 run trains over its bridge at a re-
duced speed. and also to shorten up It's trains.
Already there is train crossing every fifteen
minutes. and with the normal growth Of business
during the next decade or two a much larger
traffic must soon be accommoda ted The arch
now in process Of construction not only carries a
double track but will also Withstand greater
loads and the tremor Of higher speed.
The main span OF the new bridge is 80 feet
long, measuring from the "springing points" or
the centres OF support. The arch connects at
each end with the cliff by means OF a land span,
or truss 10 feet long. The approaches add 300
feet more 70 the total length of the structure.
The railway floor is about 22j feet above the sur
face OF the river. The contract for the mat erial
and labor was given last May to the Pennsyl-
vania Steel Company. whose works are situated
at Steelton, Penn. but which has Office In
Wall-st.. I'm this city.
HOW THE ARCH WAS PUT UP
The usual methods employed In erecting
bridges were not all available In the present un-
dertaking. When operations begun last
September extensive false work" containing
800. 900 feet of timber. erected either
shore, but II reached out only to the springing
points OF the arch. 1t was impractcable to build
temporary staging entirely across the gorge. 1t
therefore became necessary TO hold up the in
complete ends OF the arch in different manner.
First great upright section Of steel was set up
at each of the springing points resting on
masonry below and carefully anchored to the
shore at the top. At first this latter provision
was comparatively unimportant. But as sec
ton after section was added and the arms were
built out by degrees toward the middle OF the
stream. there was n tremendous leverage at
work trying To plunge the new structures into
the chasm below and then the anchorage pos
sessed vital interest. While the procedure. In
gradually extending the metal frames from
either shore was the same as is followed in con-
structing a cantilever the segments In this case
were not really cantilevers themselves. They
had no arm reaching out toward the land 10
balance that on the river side Of the springing
point To prevent topping over, therefore. i'm

structure to points $50 feet distant on the bluff

MISS ANTHONY'S PRAISE.

This is what Miss Susan B. Anthony
saws to a reporter for the Chicago
Tribune:
Newspapers? Oh, love them, and
I read them faithfully. They are my
recreation and amusement, as well as
my education
Miss Anthony has spent lifetime
ahead of her fellows, but this remark
shows that she is in perfect sympathy
with the spirit of the age and knows
a good thing when she sees it. In her
opinion of the newspapers she is right.
Newspapers hold the mirror up to hu-
manity. In them are faithfully re-
Elected the faults and foibles, the graces
and virtues of the human heart. To
the student of any department of hui
man affairs they afford an almost I'M
limited field of observation. They
widen the horizon of mans vision.
They are to all men what the telescope
is to the astronomer. He might have
some knowledge of the stars without
that instrument, but such knowledge
would be crude indeed compared with
the wonders revealed to him by its
use.
So we say, all honor to Miss An
thony. She is a woman of rare sense
and judgment.

Some months ago the gold press
was pointing with pride to ChiIi's
adoption of the gold standard as
evidence that she knew the right
route to progress and prosperity.
Since then Chili's entire financial
institutions have been disturbed
most violently. Great bank fail
ures have occurred and the coun-
try is in the throes of the most
serious panic in its history. This
is the usual result of an unwise
financial policy and deserves notice
