IRON ARRIVES FOR
ROCK RIVER BRIDGE
Span Over North Branch Will be
Completed by
March I.

Four cars of iron to be used in the
construction of the double span bridge
over the north branch of Rock river
have arrived in the city, and it is ex-
pected soon building operations will be
commenced by the Clinton Bridge 6,
Iron company.
1t is planned to have the bridge com
pleted by March 1. This is several
months beyond the original date. Ii
was hoped to see electric cars running
into Milan by the first of the year. The
Tri-City Railway company has been
ready, but has been held back by the
failure to have the bridge reconstruct
ed. The present bridge is barely strong
enough TO hold up the horse car and
other traffic, and the thought of at
tempting to run the heavy motors over
il has never been considered.
There is a new bridge over the south
branch of the river. That was built
last fall The intervening bridges have
been replanked and strengthened so as
support the motors. The weakness OF
the Rock river bridges has been a
stumbling block TO interurban projects
also, but promoters have begun 10
warm up since they have learned what
the city has been doing, and it is believ,
ed that the coming spring will see one
or more of these lines headed from the
least or south in this direction. The Tri
City Railway company has proffered its
assistance in encouraging these lines
to come to Rock Island, and will make
the same concessions in the use of its
city tracks as has been. done in Day
export.
