SOUTHERN RAILWAY
WORK PROGRESSING FAST
Material For Bridge Being Put
On Ground, and 200 Men
Employed Surveyors
Nearly Through.

Work on the bridge of the Southern
railway which is to span the Tennes-
see river at Oates Island, has begun in
earnest. During the last few days con-
tractors have shipped several barge
loads of building material for the piers
of the structure and this is taken to
the waters edge. This material is
taken to the landing by the river
steamers and another boat will go
down Saturday. The contractors have
tested the location of the foundation
of the piers and it is thought that
the bridge will be constructed as orig
inally planned When the plans for
the bridge We're drawn, it was stated
that it might be necessary to alter
them somewhat and it depended al
together on the conditions at the bot
tom of the river. The foundation in
the bed of the river for the pivot pier
is very important matter in the
construction of the bridge and if this
is found to be all right it is expected
that no changes in the plans will -be
necessary. 1t has been stated that six
months time will be required to fin
ish the piers, but it is expected that
the contract for the construction of
the steel works and spans will be let
before they are entirely finished. This
work will be let separately and will be
as important as the construction of
the piers. About two hundred men
will be employed on the works next
week. Chattanooga Times.
In addition to this the corps of sur
veyors have nearly completed the line
of survey and contracts for grading
the line will soon be made. The
Southern Railway is coming this time.
