KILLED BY ITS
OWN FRIENDS.
Newark Evening News Writes
About the New Raritan
River Bridge.

Tho Newark Evening News has this
to say about tho new bridge:
"Since the United States War De-
partment has been called in to deter
mine whether the Perth Amboy
bridge is an obstruction TO navigation
or not another inimical factor has
made it's appearance in the form of
protest bv the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company. The latter has not hitherto
manifested any active interest in this
bridge, though tmay have been more
or less effectual in, quiet way. Now,
however, 1T openly opposes the CON-
pletion Of the bridge upon the present
plans, and the Amboy people are said
to be greatly discouraged and to en-
tertain the suspicion that the struc-
ture Will never be finished. 1t is a
most singular and inexplioable state
of affairs and has been from the be-
ginning. There is now, and for thirty
years has been, q railroad bridge
across this Raritan River from Perth
Amboy to South Amboy, yet it is
impossible, apparently, for the people
of Middlesex County to build We.
hicle and foot passenger bridge ncross
the same stream, because the latter is
held to be an obstruction to naviga-
tion and is also likely to affect the
interests of the railroad using the OK
isting bridge, 1t is doubtful, how
ever, if all these distractions oom-
bined have had rs much to do with
the failure of this bridge as have the
incompetency Of the Board OF Free
holders, the vital imperfections of
the bridge1plans themselves and the
chickering's between the trolley com
panies and the municipal corporations.
The bridge has been killed by its
friends, rather than by its enemies. if
it is killed.
