America leads the world in bridge
building said John Stanley Deans, OF
Phoenixville. Pa. at the Arlington, yes
terday Mr.. Deans is the chief engineer
Of the Phoenix Bridge Company. The
Phoenix Company said ne last night. lis
the oldest iron and steel manufacturing
concern IN the United States. We have
records to show that in Ph1eniXVille
there was a commercial forge going in
1880, and the business comes down TO us
,lnbroken from that time. The old COM
pany made rails and small articles like
andirons and ornamental hinges. 1t also
made cannon, and supplied a large num-
Der to the Government during the civil
war. The company did not take up bridge
building until 1854. but IT has gone on
steadily since that time increasing its
business, until now II has on its hands
the biggest contracts for bridges which
have ever been awarded. We are just be
ginning 10 work on the great cantaleyer
bridge at Quebec, which is I69 feet nigh
and has one span 1850 feet long The
next largest bridge IN the world is the
Firth Of Forth Bridge. which was built
by British manufacturers
american bridge builders control the
market for many reasons. Their goods
are more reliable, they are cheaper. they
are lighter, AID they can be delivered in
q much shorter time PEomptEess in car
Tying out contracts has brought more
business to this country than anything
else. for we can get our bridges together
on the spot more quickly than the Eng
llSh manufacturer can get his J0SeT her in
his shop. English methods are AT fault
