And the Slruc ure is Praised
By Engineer.

The New York & Long Branch rail-
road bridge, which is being erected
across the Raritan river, about 100
feet west of the present structure, is
rapidly nearing completion.
This bridge, which has been visited
by engineers throughout the country,

bridge in the world, and it is esti-
mated that its cost will reach 81, ,000,-
600.
George HardiIhan, the local req
resentatiye of the Merrltt-Chapman
Derrick & Wrecking Company, said
this morning that his company will be
through with their work about the
middle of next week. They had the
contract for towing all the iron work
to the structure and setting it. This
was IN charge of Captain Tucker.
All the iron girders, some Of which
are seven or eight feet high, have
been set, and all that remains to be
done is the riveting. Ills draw is an
example of mechanical work that has
been admired by all civil engineers
who have seen 1t. Its mechanism
is of variety used on this bridge
only.
The bridge, 1t is anticipated, will
be entirely completed by the latter

MORE DELAY
FOR TRIAL

The search is going on for John
Keydon, the 1-issing witness against
Harry Kaliski, the New York pawn
broker charged with receiving goods
stolen by Andrew Everson from A. C.
Clark's residence in this city.
Young Keydon was a clerk in the
pawnbroking establishment and a
willing witness, declared Captain
Price. The New York police we're
not notified when bail was applied
for in the case of the young man, nor
were any of Keydon's relatives aware
of the effort to release him.
"As a matter of fact" said, Cap
tain Price, his relatives have heard
nothing from him since he was
snatched from the House OF Deten-
tion and whisked away. He was
practically kidnapped. and we are
going to make every effort possible
to find him. The boy is a young
Irish immigrant, who came to this
country only few months ago. He
lived with his sister, Mrs. Helen Mar
tin, at No. 129 St. Marks avenue.
Brooklyn. Sc has not seen or heard
from him since he left the House of
Detention, nor was she in any way
concerned in an effort to release him.
'The boy was willing and vital
witness to the case. He was bailed
out by DR.. Herman Minzesheimer. of
No. 160 East One Hundred and
Eleventh street, New York. Young
Keydon, it is believed, witnessed the
transaction between his employer,
Kaliski, and the burglar in the in
stance which forms the basis Of the
prosecution against the pawnbroker."
The police have sent out minute
description of the boy to all precincts
in Greater New York, and also TO the
police of other cities.
Chief Burke, in speaking about the
property of Mr.. Clark, said that he
had no doubt that, IL some of the
goods are allowed to remain at police
headquarters in New York much long
er, they would be ruined, because
they were not hung up and taken
care of, but packed away.

CALL CONCERN
FRAUDULENT

An allegation that business houses
in New York, Poughkeepsre Trenton
and Hartford, Conn, nave lost goods
valued at more than 100000
through band of swindlers has been
made by District Attorney Kindleber-
ger in New York police court.
This firm, of which Abraham Gold
smith, of Poughkeepsie, was arrested
a few days ago, is declared to have
been member, also entered this
city and, according to the statements
of local lawyers, opened a store at
134 Smith street. Bernard Brooks
was the head of the local store and
local lawyers state that they still
hold claims for large amounts
against him.
The scheme of this band of swind-
lers was to obtain goods, put them in
to their various stores and forget
to pay for them. A confederate would
then commence involuntary bank
ruptcy proceedings against the va
rious local managers, and the firm
would get all, and the creditors moth
ing.
Mr.. Kindleberger appeared against
Abraham Goldsmith on a charge of
being concerned in conspiracy to
obtain silk shirt waists valued at
1925 from a manufacturer in New
York. He asked that bail be fixed at
IS, 900 and declared that Goldsmith
was the tool of the band which he
charged had fraudulently obtained
goods to the value of 100000. Bail
was fixed at $1,000.
