Important News Expected.

Washington, March 6.-There is reason
to expect important news from Manila
within the next fortnight. 1t has devel-
oped that General Otis has practically
completed his plans for a grand onslaught
on the insurgents which is expected to

1t is probable that Otis will form large

mis- achievements arrive and will push
these into parallel lines to fight through
the Jungle clearing out the insurgents in
every direction as the troops move for
ward
The American troops are getting rest
less and nervous under the petty but an
moving shaipshooting of the Filipinos and
are so anxious to put a stop to this that
General Otis has yielded to their desire

Older readers of the newspapers can re.
member when it was building. years and

to many of them that it was built at all.
Why Farmville could not have been reached
without crossing the Appomat:ox none but
an engineer will ever know. When 1t was
originally constructed. it We said TO be the
highest bridge of its length IN the country.
Its length is 3 1868 feet, and It's height 116.
Until 1870 It's supe-structute was Of wood.
In that year General Malone, being presi-
dent Of the road, it gave place to iron, this
in turn, in 1885, was followed by another
iron structure-''up TO date" in every par

without any interruption whatever to trayel
In 1866 Mr.. W. A. Foreman entered upon
the discharge Of his duty as guard Of the
bridge, and with the exception of two years,
when he was absent on account Of i'll health,
he has been doing that work since. he says
that during the days of the wooden bridge

hat it was not unusual 10 have as many as
six. or seven fires on at tie same time. This
