Bridge is DELAYED.

York, Sept. 23.-Theer is a dead
lock over the rebuilding of the Broad
River bridge between York and Cher
okee counties which was DESTROYED by
the July freshet At a joint meeting
of Supervisors Boyd. Of York, and
Jenkins, Of Cherokee. with their re-
spective commissioners at the bridge
site Wednesday, there was a PROPOSE
ton from the York supervisor that he
would be willing to build the bridge
on the Same basis as before, each
cour.y paying half the cost. Super
vi2or Jenkins declined the proposition.
but agreed to meet Supervisor BOYD
in the middle of the river. The York
county supervisor would not agree to
this because there is long approach
to the bridge on the York side and a
very short approach on the Cherokee
SIDE; but he was willing to go down
the river about a quarter of a mile to
a point where the approaches are of
about equal length and go halves. This
the Cherokee county supervisor re-
FUSED to agree to and there the nego-
uations stand for the present.
