SEE PROPERTY OWNERS

Work has begun on the preliminary
preparations for the construction OF
the four new bridges of the K. +. IL +.
Belt Line and unless there are legal
complications the work will be press
ed as fast as possible.
Al the regular meeting OF the coun-
~ board OF supervisors Tuesday the
plans for the new structures were stud
led carefully and the details were ex-
planned by the engineer of the rail
road company Everything was sal
isfactory TO the supervisors except the
wording of some of the agreements and
these viii he revised.
The bridges are to be constructed
over Carey Street Road, Grove Avenue.
Patterson avenue and Broad Street
Road. The work will cost the railroad
company over $780, 900. --------a
A committee of citizens appeared
before the supervisors and asked that
the bridges over Grove and Patterson
avenues be made more than twenty
feet wide. The matter had been settled
however, and as onl ythe attorney and
engineer OF the railroad were present
at the meeting. there was no one with
sufficient authority to make the
changes desired.
The bridges over Broad and Carey
street roads are TO be each thirty feet
wide, the other two ar eto be twenty.
Expect Litigation.
The supervisors do not expect to get
the bridges built without some trou-
bic from the property owners who
own the approaches Chairman Saun-
ders and Commonwealth Attorney
Julien Gum were appointed a COM
mittee to see all the property owners
and undertake TO get them to give
the property for the approaches or
arrange some terms with them.
1t is expected that the majority Of
the owners will get in line, but trout
Bile Is expected from one or two OF
them. X Is expected that the matter
of these will he taken to the court
and their property condemned. The
committee win make report at the
next regular meeting Of the super
Yisors.
Pending the requirement Of the
property rights for the approaches
the railroad company will confne its
work To the tracks. There Is enough
work on their own property to keep
a big gang of men at work for some
time.
The supervisors attended to the
usual amount Of routine business af
ter completing their work over the
plats and maps of the bridges.
