CONTRACT APPROVED.
Conditions Under Which Highway
Bridge Is to Constructed.

Bridge is to Constructed.
Gen. Gillespie, the chief Of engineers. to-
day approved the contract with the Penn
sylvania Steel Company of Philadelphia for
the construction Of a highway bridge across
the Potomac a short distance above the
old Long bridge. The contract is drawn so
that the War Department win be enabled
to determine at a future date whether the
company shall be required to construct
permanent buckle plate and asphalt floor
or temporary wooden floor to the bridge
at the respective prices named by the COM
pany in It's bid. viz, 1914 600 for the bridge
with the permanent floor and 1919 200 for
the bridge with temporary wooden floor.
The total appropriation for the bridge is
5000, but that amount includes the cost
Of approaches, in addition to the bridge
proper.
The contract made today is simply for
the bridge. The question to be determined
hereafter relates mainly to the character Of
the approaches. If the bridge Is provided
with the permanent floor at this time, and
there is no further appropriation by Gen.
gress 1t will be necessary to slight the ap-
proaches and construct them of the cheap
est material on the simplest plan. II only
temporary wooden floor Is placed on the

struction of the approac hes. In either event.
however. 1t is believed 1t will be necessary
to SECURE additional funds from Congress
Under the contract the Pennsylvania Steel
Company Is required to begin the work of

NIT that my fence 'epcroaches to the small

The Commissioners referred the matter to
