BRIDGE WORK BEGUN.

Regardless of the Water the New
 8ridoe Has Been Started.
 Yesterday the pile driver of the Nj. S5 P. constructing crew was taken to the north side of the river and was set up where the approach from that side is to be started. The work of driving the piles for the approach will be started today providing the weather is favorable. The crew is losing no time on account Of high water and are adapting themselves to circumstances as best they can. The approach on the north side of the new bridge will be completed first and if the water is then still too high to permit of work in the river bed, the same programme of the river.
 At 6 o'clock last evening the river was higher than it had been at any other time during this rise, and all the track built across the bed had been washed away, or rather, had been car ried down stream as far as ropes would permit it. So far none of it has been lost although it is piled up in punches and on top of brush in fantastic shapes. On this end Of the track about seventy five feet of it with the rails still at tached to the ties has been swung around and the rails bent in almost Q half circle
 Altogether the river presented rather an angry appearance and attracted a large number of inquisitive OnlOokers during the day. It is predicted that it will be even worse tomorrow and as to the future no one can tell.
