TO BUILD BRIDGE
Commissioners viii Offer
S1,500 Check to Board

Tho board OF county commission.
ers agreed Tuesday TO offer the ship
ping board $500 for 10 OF the
wooden huils In Lake Union.
The board declared that Il would
assume no responsibility 10 the gov
ornment for the construction OF the
/ proposed pontoon bridge across Lake
/ Washington.
! Residents OF Mercer island who are
putting up the $3.50 declared that
they did not wnnt the commissioners
to go on record as promising the
bridge. but that they wanted TO Sc.
cure the hulis Immediately so that
early plans could bc formulated for
the establishment OF the bridge.
The most feasible plan, according
TO r. r. Montoli, Seattle consulting
engineer, and IA member OF one Of
the committees. is 20 build the cast
leg OF the bridge from the extreme
east point OF Seward Island to the
nearest point on Mercer Island, a
distance OF about 1000 feet.
The proposed highway across Mer.
Ger Island would connect with the
mainlnnd 60 the east OF Mercer
| Island at Enatcl. This span would
be but 1000 feet In length and
would require only three hulls. II
the bottom is found solid. piling ia.
stead of lulla may be used in the
eastern bridge.
Practically all engineering au-
thorillcs consulted have agreed that
the plan is entirely feasible, says
