MANY TONS Of STEEL ARE USED
in NEW BRIDGE AT CHICAGO

sons were crossing the river in the
scow when a ship sailed up and foul
ed the ferry line. Fifteen of the thir-
ty were drowned.
A swinging bridge of wood and iron
was next built. It's 211 foot span cost
$4,000. On Tuesday, Nov. 3, 1868, an
election day. the bridge tender took
vacation leaving an assistant in
charge.
Late in the afternoon a drover
started to herd $50 head of cattle
across the bridge. A teamster with
two horses and man and girl in
buggy were also on the bridge, when
two tugs whistled for the draw.
The bridge tender started to swing
the, span, when the bridge collapsed
under the weight of the cattle. The
girl was drowned but the men, cling.
ing to the horns Of the cattle, were
rescued.
A wooden bridge was next erected,
and served until the great fire of Oct.
8. 1871. There is story mostly leg
end, of how prominent citizen stood
guard with a gun all night to keep
the bridge tender from opening the
draw to save his bridge before all
the refugees had fled from the fire

A steel bridge followed = it cost
5,OOO-and was dedicated with
great celebration. Twelve years later
the schooner Granger, the tug Charles
w. Parker, and the steam barge

south draw at one time.
The next venture in bridge build
ing the present Rush street bridge,
still stands, but it will be torn down
this summer and is piers dynamited.

CHICAGO, Ill. May 20-Ten thous-
and tons of steel, Chicago's new boule-
ward link bridge, settled into place re-
Gently with whirring Of gears and
fer the ninth time in 1T years north
and south Chicago were connected by
direct lake front route.
The north pier of the new bridge
rests almost on the spot where John
Kinzie -moored his canoe beneath a
willow tree. Three hundred feet away,
across the river. the south pier rises
from the place where the other term

located beneath the log stoclade Of
Fort Dearborn.
The new bridge, double deck bas-

feet into the air. A broad boulevard

while trucks and drays rumble over
the lower passageway. The bridge

A few years later the early settlers
and soldiers at the Fort established
a rope ferry. A flat bottomed scow
