CONGESTION.

Failing to convince the street rail
way company that it ought to bear
the expense of widening the Wash
ington avenue bridge, the council last
evening directed the city engineer to
proceed at once with the work of wild
ening the bridge and appropriated
Immediately after the construction
of the bridge the street railway COM
pany discovered that it could be used
to advantage in the then proposed troll
ley line connecting Minneapolis and
St. Paul, as it enabled the company to
Minneapolis to University avenue.
In later years on account Of fur
nishing the most direct road between
the twin cities lower Washington ave-
nue. has acquired a heavy traffic. The
roadway of the bridge is only eighteen
feet wide and as there is a double
street railway track the company vir-
tually monopolizes the entire roadway.
That it should be widened to permit
wagon traffic outside Of the tracks has
been admitted for years and several
attempts have been made to induce
the street railway company to assume
the structure was not used for the troll
ley line. The street railway company
has refused to acknowledge any obi
cation to do so. No attempt to compel
the company to pay the cost of enlarg-
ing the bridge has been made.
Some years ago the company spent
considerable money, about 100000 it is
understood, in Strengthening the struc-
ture, which was believed to be too light
for the heavy interurban cars. There
is, however, no disposition to give the
company any credit for this outlay be.

ROADS ARE NEGLECTED
JUDGE PEARCE RECOMMENDS
 FEW INDICTMENTS.
If Overseers are DereIict, He Says. al Andalusia, the Grand Jury Should Find True Bills Against
 Them.

Andalusia, Nov. 21.-(Special)- Judge Pearce of Dothan convened court at Andaiusia Monday morning Solici- tor R. H. Parks is i'll at Dothan and Attorney Brennan of Troy is looking after the States interests.
 In his charge to the grand jury. Judge Pearce took up the subject of roads and handled it without mincing matters The judge said that the nu- merous warnings handed out by grand juries in Alabama were ineffective. These road overseers have had enough warning" said Judge Pearce. T advise you to inquire into the mat ter diligently. and if you find that over- secrs in Covington County are not do- ing their duty as provided by statute. 1t is your duty to return indictments and have them properly punished. It will have it's effect upon other over seers. It will have a good effect"
 In his char"e to the grand jury, Judge Pearce instructed that they take up the matter of telephone wires along county roads. They arc not put up substantially and in a manner as con- serves public safety. The judge said Where the wires cross public roads there Is no extra effort made to guard against falling wires. In the daytime travellers can see the wires, but at night the traveller drives into them and injures his animal and himself. It may be a little expensive for the com panies operating these telephone lines but I think the public Is entitled to this protection. All that Is necessary for you to do Is to make a presentment to the County Commissioners, and they will attend to the matter promptly"
 J. L. Deems. a merchant of Red Level, was selected foreman of the grand jury and Charles Snowdon was sworn in as bailiff
