STEEL DELAYS BRIDGE BUILDING.

Commissioner Thompson has re-
ceived a communication from Guy
Hopkins, of the Southern Pacific Com
pany, advising that the delay in ship
ment of the structural steel for the
footbridge to be erected at Eliza street,
over the tracks of the company, has
been investigated and the manufac-
turers said it probably would be three
or four months before the steel would
be shipped. Mr.. Hopkins stated he
had taken the matter up again and
urged shipment earlier, and hoped to
have this done so that the work of
constructing the bridge could begin at
once.
Material for the shops, and other i'm
provements is arriving by the carload
and there will be no further delay in
completing the work beyond that over
which the company has no control.
Steel and concrete will form the make
up of the new structures and they are
to be modern in every detail, the shops
themselves to be among the finest and
best equipped in the South.
