WANTS BRIDGE STRONGER
Trolley Company Asks City to Repair
 Structure for Cars.

The Connecticut company now wants the city Of New Haven to strengthen the bridge over the West River at Congress avenue, so that it will be safer for the passage of its cars. The bridge is the one used by the cars which go to Savin Rock by way of Allingtown and the company claims the bridge is getting too weak for the modern heavy double truck cars. One of the engineers of the railroad company presented the prop osItlon to Director Foley yesterday afternoon and he is now considering it. The scheme calls for the strength ening of the bridge under the tracks of the company only and will cost $1,500 approximately in the estimate of the company. The proposition of the trolley company Is that the city pay one-half of the cost.

BIG RANCH SLICED
UP IN HOME ACRES.
Hunt Tract of 2500 Acres In Umatiifa
Will be Coonized

PENDLETON, Ore, April 16.-The
Umatilla ranch, near Echo, formerly
! the property of G. W. Hunt. is to be
| placed upon the market and it's $500
| acres of bottom land sold out in small
! tracts. This will mean another colOni-
| zation project for the west end of
Umatilla county, and since the land is
! already under cultivation it will prove
q popular one.
The land is watered from a private
ditch from the Umatilla river, and is
particularly adapted to alfalfa and
fruit raising. Last year it produced 1000
tons of alfalfa. According to the pres
ent owners of the ranch they have
found it imprac ticable to properly farm
such a vast acreage of irrigated land.
At present the land is owned by the
Swift Packing company, and represen
tatives of this company will now sell
it off in 10-acre and 20-acre tracts.
The Umatilla ranch was acquired by
G.. w. Hunt in early days In the early
sixties he freighted between Umatila
and Boise and his attention was at
tracted to the rich land now in the
ranch through the fact that the Indians
used the place as a winter camping
ground, because of the mild climate
ana rich pasturage.
In later years after Mr.. Hunt had
closed a busy career as a railroad
builder, he purchased the ranch and
held it until about two years ago, at
which time it was sold to the present
owners for a price said to have been
