DELAWARE BRIDGE
TO SPAN THE POTOMAC
To Be Brought From Phila-
delpllia to Washington.
CHEAPER THAN NEW BRIDGE
None But Steam Roads to Cross It
Electric Roads to Cross River
by Present Route.

1t was announced here this morning
that the Pennsylvania Railroad will re-
move the bridge now across the Della
ware River at Philadelphia to Wash
ington and place it across the Potomac
River.
The Delaware bridge is a tFo-track
structure OF splendid design, but in
adequate for the great amount of traffic
over that line TO Atlantic City
Il is intended to construct a four
track bridge across the Delaware to
take its place. and consequently the
bridge can be used elsewhere. The
bridge to be built across the Potomac
River is intended to be a two-track
structure.
Orders Far in Arrears.
So expensive is steel at this time and
so far behind in orders are all the bridge
builders. the arrangement given here
has been decided upon aud will be car
ried out. The present bridge over the
Delaware will be taken to pieces and re-
moved to Washington. where 1t VIII be
put together again
In doing this great expense will be
saved to the Pennsylvania. as new
structure over the Potomac will cost sew
eral hundred thousand dollars.
Expense Much Less
The work Of taking the Delaware
bridge to pieces will be insignificant
compared with that of constructing
new bridge. The work of removal will
be begun as soon as the stone work has
been completed.
