Longest Stone Arch.

Up to a year ago the Cabin John
aqueduct bridge, near this city. was the
longest clear span masonry bridge in
the world, with length of arch of 220
feet but since then two German
bridges have been built which surpass
it in length. The first one was built
at Luxembourg, Germany, over the riv
er Petrusse, and it's arch span sur
passes that of the Cabin John span by
551a feet. This summer a bridge at
Plauen. Saxony will be completed
which has the remarkabl span of 1852
feet thus taking rank as the largest
clear span masonry bridge in the world
title which the Cabin John bridge
held for many years.-Washingto Star

CONGESTED'
FREIGHT
TRAFFIC

The situation in local freight traffc,
as at Pawtuoket and other nearby cities.
is such as to severelv tax yard facili-
ties. There is suggestion Of con-
gestion but a rapid clearing up of the
difficulty Ia looked forward TO.

was recently appointed II succeed Super
ntendent A. X. Whaley, transferred to
New York. has been in town about 10
days. fsmiiisrizing himself with the du-
ties of his new position. which he for
mallv assumes on Jan. l.
Speaking recently OF the difficulty In
handling the post holiday freight, Super
ntendent Droege said: There has been
river. and we can't move our cars for
ward to that point any faster than they
can be received there. The recent foggy
spell prevented the oating OF cars across
the river at New York. and heavy con-
gestion occurred. That created con-
gestion all along the line eastward. with
500 and 500 empty. or dead freight cars
tied up In. and tying up. our yards in
this immediate vicinity. Ordinarily there
ought not TO be more than about 100 held
in local yards.
They block our tracks, and interfere
with the ready movement of loaded cars.
but we are getting them through with
reasonable promptness, and are hoping
that the situation will better itself short
ly."
The present tie-up is not by any means
confined to the New York New Haven
and Hartford. 1t is badly felt by the Penn
sylvania and other roads west OF New
York and, largely on that account, ex~
tends eaStward.
