State Engineer Returns From h. spection trip and Says State Will
 Not Lose Much

According to State Engineer Lamar Cobb, who yesterday returned from months trip of inspection over the south part of the state the damage done to the states roads bridges and other public works, is comparatively small
 Mr Cobb left this city on January eleventh. and during his absence. has
 travelled over nearly all of the south ern counties and made side trips to
 Fl Paso and Silver City, x. NJ. in
 his auto. He stated yesterday that
 none of the states bridges were dam only damage being the destruction of la number of the earthen approaches
 to the bridges in some localities.
 The engineers office has been es- pecially interested in the remarkable
 way in which the new Antelope Hill Yuma County) bridge withstood the big floods of the Gila river. The
 bridge which was dedicated last Oc- ltober. was not harmed by the rise if
 the river. and only a small amount Of
 the approaches on the north side was
 washed out. Mr. Cobb brought him
 some fine photographs of the bridge taken during the flood. They showed
 that the water had reached point
 within about two feet of the floor of
 the structure. As soon as the AriZon0
 Eastern road repairs its bridge and resumes traffic across the Agua Fria
 river on the Buckeye line, a force of forty cOnvicts will he esent to the Antelope Hill bridge and the ap- breaches will be repaired
 Mr Cobb came through Florence on Monday, but did not make an eX- lamination of the bridge situation at that place He will go there again today, with Engineer Nichols, and give the place the "once over with a view of getting some information about what shall he done. At Flor ence, the Gila river broke out of ite banks and rambled quite distance away from it's old bed. leaving tho feet from the bridge. Hence, at thc present time the bridge is spanning a stretch of dry land. and water un- der the structure is scarce. MT. Cobb does not know whether an effort will be made to show the river the error
 of it's ways and coax it back into it's old channel, or whether the bridge will be extended so that it performs the real functions of a structure of | that kind. and actually crosses some l real water.
