DELAWARE RIVER BRIDGE TO
COST $36,51O,949

The total cost of the big new
bridge spanning the Delaware river
between Philadelphia and Camden,
will be $36,51O,949, according to
the latest estimate furnished to the
Delaware River Bridge Joint Com
mission. OF this amount $1O,43S,
467 will be paid by the city OF
Philadelphia, a like amount by the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. and
S15,634,015 by the State of New
Jersey,
Under the tri-partite agreement,
Philadelphia and Pennsylvania each
pay one-quarter of the cost of the
bridge structure itself, New Jersey
paying the remaining one-half. The
cost of acquiring real estate and
building the approach on the Phila-
delphia side is borpe by Philadel-
phia and Pennsylvania on a $3.50
basis, while the cost of real estate
and the approach ON the Camden
side is paid by New Jersey alone.

AUTO STEALING ON INCREASE

An average monthly increase of
thirty-six automobile thefts has been
reported to the Baltimore police in
the first eight months of this year,
as compared with the total number
of thefts in 1924, according to
records on file at the Detective
Bureau.
Since January 1 1878 automo-
biles have been reported stolen, an
increase of 27S over the number for
the first eight months of last year
In the twelve months of 1924 there
were 1,647 thefts.
OF the total number of cars
stolen this year sixty-nine have not
been recovered. This is a decided
increase in the number of un-
recovered stolen machines, the police
point out, as in the entire year of
1924 only fifty-six automobiles were
not located.
In January this year seventy-nine
cars were reported stolen. This is
the smallest number of thefts re-
ported in any one month in five
years. In March this year there
were 215 thefts, the highest in any
month in the history of the police
department.
The small number of thefts in
January, the police say, was due to
the continuous heavy snowfalls,
when the majority of automobiles
owners kept their cars in garages.
More than ninety per cent of the
machines reported missing have
been taken for 10y rides" or by
persons who wished to move more
rapidly than they could by trolley
cars and who had no intention of
stealing the cars.
Machines taken for such purposes.
the detectives said, generally are
abandoned after few hours.
There is little that can be done
police say, to stop this form of
theft, which is characterized as
unauthorized use."

DEATHS
MRS. GEORGE G. RAwsoN

MRS. GEORGE G. RAWSON
Mrs. Laura G. Rawson, wife of
George C. Rawson, of North East,
died Aug. 81, at the home of her
step-mother, Mrs. Harriet Lambert,
Wilmington. She was 4S years
of age.
Mrs. Rawson was a native of
North East, a daughter of the late
j. A. Lambert. In her early woman
hood she met with very serious
accident. Her clothing catching
fire from a burning brush heap, she
was badly burned. The wound
never completely healed, eventually
resulting in her death. Before her
marriage she taught in the public
schools of the county.
Her husband, two sons, daugh-
ter and her step-mother survive.
Interment was made in North East
M. E. cemetery.

POWER PROJECT DELAYED
Public Service Commissioners Hold
Up Conowingo Dam


The Maryland and Pennsylvania
Public Service Commissions will not
meet to consider the application of
the Conowingo power development
project before November, it is
reported.
Legal argument by opposing
counsel will be heard before a joint
meeting of the two State commits
sions at Harrisburg, Pa, October
5th, and additional hearings will
be held before the Maryland COM
mission at Baltimore at later date,
due to changes which have been
made in the original plans.
The survey of pre-construction
costs, being made by accountants
and engineers of the Maryland and
Pennsylvania commissions aided by
representatives of the Federal
Power Commission, is given as one
of the reasons for/delay in the final
hearings by the Public Service
Commissions.
The early cost survey, it is said,
must consider expenditures by the
original promoters prior to the for
nation of the existing company in
1922. Opponents of the power deA
velopment have charged that these
costs were not represented cor
rectly at hearings before the two
commissions.
1t is reported also that delays in
ratification of the power develop
ment will result from the attitude
of Governor Pinchot of Pennsyl-
vania, who has announced that he
opposes private development of
water power resources.
