CONTRACT AWARDED.
Reconstruction Of Aqueduct Bridge
Pier to Cost 854.936.

Prompt action has been taken in the
matter of the reconstruction of pier No.
Of the Aqueduct bridge across the Poto-
mac river at Georgetown, in decided con-
trast with the delays that have hampered
the projects for highway bridge and the
establishment of f1ltration plant in this
city. Colonel Allen, the engineer officer in
charge Of the improvement of the Potomac
opened bids for the reconstruction of pier
No. March 80, and the contract for the
work was awarded by General Gillespie,
chief Of engineers, today
Three bids were received for the work as
follows:
The Penn Bridge Company Of Beaver
Falls. Pa, at s54,956; the Foundation and
Contracting Company of New York. at
S57,0O McMullen & McDermott OF New
York, at $6f.665.
stract of these bids to the chief of en-
gineers. He said that the bid of the Penn
Bridge Company, amounting to 1885, was
the lowest one received and as that bid is
considered reasonable he recommended it's
acceptance. General Gillespie7approved his
recommendation and directed that the con-
tract be made accordingly. =,
There Is total Of ,64 900 available for this
work. The Penn Bridge Company agrees
to begin work May l and complete 1t by
December 1 next. The reconstruction of
the defective pier will necessarily prevent
the laying of street railway tracks on the
Aqueduct bridge until next spring at the
earliest.
