Parker, the engineering department of
the \. r., T.. x T.. railway, is now bus.
lily engaged perfecting plans for the
erection OF the bridge, the contract
for the construction Of which will be
awarded in the next few days.
The bridge which will be built over

The structure will include five spans,
each 2st feet in length, resting on con.
crete piers, which, in turn, will rest on
pneumatic foundations, 90 feet below
low water mark The construction of
the piers on this plan will add much to
the cost of the entire structure, but
from an engineering standpoint IL
seems TO be imperative that the piers
be built this way, az after several
