TENTH STREET BRIDGE IS
DAMAGED BY CARFERRY

Last Thursday morning the piling at
the north approach to Tenth street
bridge was pushed out of place as a re-
suit of its being struck by the Pere Mar
quette carferry 49, After the carferry
had passed through, it was found, on
closing the bridge, that the north end of
the structure had no foundation. Alder
man Tomchek, the chairman of the
council committee on bridges, was
notified of the damage done by the
collision and, having inspected the
bridge, he ordered it closed to travel
until repairs shall have been made, be-
cause he deemed the structure in its
present damaged condition unsafe for
team traffic Ii will cost at least $l75 to
make the necessary repairs, and the
work can not be started until the Pellet
pile-driver, which is in use on the Chica-
go e. North Western extension, can be
brought to the city
Tenth street bridge was condemned
short time ago by Milwaukee expert on
bridges after he had made thorough
inspection of the structure. To render
the bridge serviceable for several years
to come would require a considerable ex-
pense; but unless the structure is to be
abandoned in the near future, extensive
repairs must be made for the bridge is
getting to be quite dilapidated
