Five steel bridges are being built on
the A. K. & n. Railroad to take the
place of the wooden structures. The
second of these long bridges over Hia-
wassee river, at Reliance, has been fin
ished. The heaviest work is the noun
tain work near Hiawassee, where eight
or nine miles of new road are being
built around the mountain, which the
road now crosses. This work will
greatly reduce the grades on that por-
ton of the road and will make the road
much more valuable as freight road,
as well as enabling passenger trains to
make faster time. The work is very
heavy and will not be completed before
next spring. The small branches which
are being built near Ducktown, by the
copper companies will be feeders to the
AK, N. The business Of the road is
heavier than ever and General Mana
ger J. B. Newton is proving to be the
right man in the right place. He is a
gentleman in every sense of the word.
