MomentariIy Forget Bridge Traffic is
Closed-Emergency Service
is lnaugurated.

Change for Davenport" sang out
the conductors On the Third and Fourth
avenue car lines at Twentieth street
and Third avenue this morning. Then
they hastily corrected themselves, to
the amusement of the passengers. For
beginning today there is no car service
between Rock Island and Davenport by
way of the Twenty-fOuTth street bridge,
that structure having been closed to
traffic at o'clock this morning by or
der of Lieutenant Colonel Hobbs of
Rock Island arsenal. The only car
service is via the FOrty-sccond street
bridge, an emergency service having
been inaugurated to handle the traffic
during the three months that the bridge
is to be closed.
New Ferry Service.
Beginning this morning a new SEIZED.
ule also went into effect on the ferry
line. the boats running from , o'clock
in the morning until l. o'clock at night
The spectacle of half dozen teams on
the ferry at once was seen today for
the first time in many years here.
While the bridge is closed, light traf
fic is permitted by Colonel Hobbs be
tween Moline and Davenport by way of
the Moline bridge. The loads are lin.
tied. however. because of the weakened
condition of the Moline bridge.
Removing the Floors.
Early this morning the employees OF
Bayne & Hewitt. the contractors who
are constructing the new Twenty-fourth
street bridge, began to remove the
floors and superstructure of the old
bridge. By noon the work was well adj
vanCed, and even had the bridge not
been officially closed it would have
been impossible for a team to cross it
In a short time the entire superstruC
ture of the old bridge will be gone and
the work of replacing it with the new
and modern girder spans will be com,
menced. Work on one of the new piers
has been completed, and two others are
almost finished. The work from now
on will be watched with interest
1t is expected that it will be fully
three months before traffic over the
new structure will be permitted.
