REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Memphis. Tenn. June .o.General Man
ager and Vice President Russell Harding Of
the Missouri Pacific in an interview here to-
day said the Gould lines have determined
to break down the high bridge tolls. which
the Memphis and Kansas City Bridge Com
rany have maintained here since 1882.
He said that one of the objects Of the
recent visit Of George Gould to Memphis
was to investigate this matter. and that
rs rsgotiations are now pending for the con-
struction Of a second bridge from the Bluff
City to the Arkansas shore. Such a project
would involve the expenditure of not less
than 100000. the one now operated have
ing cost $.5tS.0OO.
Mr.. Harding conferred with more than
one OF the prominent officials of the city
government. and while he declined to dis
cLss the nature OF the conferences II r. gen.
orally understood that they related to fran
chlses
Memphians think that a new bridge
would be as great benefit to the city to
the railroad company at the back of the
enterprise. and there will be no trouble
about franchises.
From tie tenor OF Mr.. Hardng's talk his
company seems to be in earnest
we think. he says. that the present
charges In tolls are unjust, and that II
"voAu cc ehS"Pcf Aof uS ~ ruiiu ana mdIu-

opinion. has decided to pay them little
