RL4CKWELL'S ISLAND BRIDGE.
THE FEDERAL. GOVERNMENT RESPONSIBLE FOR
THE DELAY IN BUILDING 1T. MR..
YORK SAYS.

Deputy Commissioner York OF the Department of
Bridges was asked yesterday afternoon concerning
the delay in the building OF the Blackwelrs Island
Bridge from Manhattan to Queens. He said:
The delay is wholly the fault of the Government.
In December 1899. this Department sent TO the War
Department at Washington a set OF the plans for
the proposed bridge. We got no reply On NOvem-
Der 10 Of last year the Mayor approved the plans
and nothing remained to secure but the approval
after the Mayors approval, we notified the Wax
Department that such action had been taken by
the municipal authorities. and after stating that
the matter up to the Government, We reminded
the War Department that we had received reply
since We sent the plans. But even that letter
brought no response. We do not know yet whether
the Government has approved or rejected the plans
for the bridge. and We cannot go ahead with
the work until after approval is made.
Concerning the desire OF the Navy Department to
convert part of Blackwells Island into naval
park and parade ground Commissioner York said
he would discuss the matter Asked about
the possibilities OF having stairway from the
Blackwers Island Bridge TO Blackwelrs Island in
case the Navy Department should get the land. Mr..
York said;
do not see why IL should be done Such stair
way would be at least 135 feet above high waite
mark and would incur considerable expense. True.
we could place elevator inside the Blackwell 5
Island tower, but this also would incur great ex-
pense. But We have no knowledge Of the question
here.
