Another Marvel in Engineering.
From the Providence Journal.


New York is the great field for the
engineers who work underground. Tho
subway systems represent hundreds Of
millions of dollars and the achieve
ments of their builders have eclipsed in
popular interest such engineering mon
uments as the bridges v the East

spectacular plan for a bridge across the
