Today-Great Parade Marched
Across the Bridge.
CHerald Specially

New York, June 1.-THE Queens
boro bridge, the fourth material link
(including the interborough tunnel)
between Manhattan and Long Island,
which were without connection when
the first bridge across the East river
was finished, was formally opened to-
day with imposing ceremonies. A pa
rade of allegorical floats and military
and civic organizations marched
across the bridge, while marine pa
geant proceeded up the East river
The parades were followed by formal
exercises in the Plaza in Long Island
City in which official representatives
of the two boroughs took part.
Perhaps a million persons witness,
ed some portion of the days pro-
gram. The deliberately decorated
bridge presented a beautiful picture
as the big procession of harbor craft
moved up and down the river. There
were throngs on roof tops, piers and
streets on both sides of the river.
The show cost Father Knickerbocker
$4,000, but it was. pronounced worth
the money.
A small army of workmen had been
engaged for days arranging the deco
rations of the new bridge and string
ing vast lines of red, white and blue
incandescent bulbs for the illumina-
ton at night. Between the spans
there we're gigantic coats of arms of
the city and state.
The parade was one of the most
elaborate affairs of the kind seen
here in years. The military division
comprised nearly $4,000 National
Guardsmen of Brooklyn and New
York, commanded by Major General
Charles F. Roe. Thousands of volun-
