BRIDGES ARE SHIFTED
IN eleven MINUTES
Pennsylvania Railroad Makes Quick
Change Over the Tidal
Basin Outlet. @

Quick work, quicker than was antici-
pated by those in charge. was done
last night in the substitution OF
heavy steel and concrete bridge Of the
Pennsylvania railroad over the tidal
basis outlet at the foot OF 14th street
southwest, in place of the lighter
bridge. which has been in use for
about ten years.
Promptly at IL o'clock the work was
started and at 12:11 am. the old bridge
was out. the new bridge in place and
the workmen were connecting the
rails. and within a minute or two after
ward a work train was standing on
the new bridge unloading rock ballast
for the tracks. Those in charge of
the work state that had it not been
for kink coming in one of the lines
used in hauling the new bridge into
place the change in bridges would
have been accomplished In minute
or two less time.
The first passenger train to pass over
the new structure was at o'clock this
morning, but previous to that heavy
freight trains had used the bridge and
found it firm. About a months work
remains to be done before the new
shifting the bridges was done under
the direction of Elmer Carroll Of the
Pennsylvania bridge force. Several
years ago he superintended the shift
ing Of a bridge spanning one Of the
Potomac Park driveways. about 900
feet south of the bridges moved last
night.

NO KAISER PEACE REPLY.
State Department Has Received No
Message From Him,

Published reports from Berlin to the
effect that Emperor William had re-
piled to the inquiry Of the American
government as to the truth of report
that Germany was ready to discuss
peace terms awakened considerable In
terest among officials. who stated, how
ever that no message of any kind had
yet been received.
Both at the White House and the State
Department no dispatch bearing any re-
lation to the question of peace has been
received in the last two days. The ap-
parent delay in receiving an answer
from the emperor is accounted for here
by the fact that the German monarch is
in the field with his troops, and pos
sibly the imperial chancellor is awaiting
his return to Berlin before drafting a
reply on SO important a question.
