. THAT FOUR TRACK ROLLING LlFT

 

Bridgeport’s Great Work Ahead of the
Coal Shortage at Steeiton.

, Ther‘e was a rumor in Consolidated
rruiirund circles this morning that the
; closing down of the great works of the
' Pennsylvania Steel Company at Steel-
ion. Pa, on account of the coal short-
age. would handicap work on the four-
mile four track. four million dollar im‘
provcmcnt of the railroad system in
Bridgeport. The works are closed on
account of the lack of fuel. and indus-
ands of men have been thowrr out of
employment there.

it is at these works that the great
Srherzer rolling lift bridge. which is to
span the Pequonnock river at Bridge-
port, is being built, the two large steel
approach spans. and also much of the
steel work of the overhead bridges
crossing the streets of Bridgeport. Any
extensive delay in turning out this
work now would seriously hamper the
completion of the Bridgeport improve-
ment. a task that it has been hoped to
complete this year.

At the general offices of the Consoli-
dated railroad yesterday noon it was
stated that the shutting down of the
Sieelion . works would not interfere
with the Consolidated a plane and ad
vices were received from Steelton yes
terday that the steel work for the new
rolling lift bridge had all been com-
pleted. The other steel work was in
a more advanced stage of completion.
in fact some of the overhead bridges

_ are now being put in place.

 

PRUSSIAN DIET ls REOPENED.

BERLIN. Jan. Iii—The Prussian
Diet was reopened today. The Chan-
cellor. Count Von Buelow. read the
speech from the throne. No mention
was made of foreiarn matters nor of
the Canal bill. The speech took a
gloomy view of the finances of Prus-
sia. It is said that the accounts for
1901 closed with a deficit or 89.376.000
and added that it was not anticipated
that the accounts for 1902 would be
appreciably satisfactory As for 1903
a demand would have to be made on
public credit for a considerable loan
in "order to establish equilibrium be-
tween the revenue and expenditure. as
in consequence of the depression in
agriculture, trade and industry a fnr~
ther depreciation fmmathe receipts of .
several administrative departments
would result.

Bills were announced for furthering
