TO BUILD CONCRETE BRIDGE ACROSS CREEK City Officials Favor that Construction for New Structure. A concrete bridge will probably bo built over Fall creek at Northwestern avenue, according to City Engineer Jeup. The sale of ,000 in bonds to furnish funds for building the bridge leaves no obstacle in the way of proceeding with the work. The new bridge will resemble the bridges across Fall i rssa a1 Meridian and Illinois streets. Its estimated cost is about $46,000.

In the opinion of Controller Dunn the interurban railway companies unlng the bridge should be made to bear part of the expense of building it. COUNT! COUNCIL CALLED FOR A SPECIAL SESSION Appropriation for Bridges Will Be Considered on Feb. 25. COUNTY CLERK'S CLAIMS Notices will be sent to members of the County Council to-day announcing a special meeting of the Council to be freld Feb. 25 to consider the question of building new bridges across White river at Morris street, River avenue.

Michigan street and Emrichs-vllle. On the action taken by the Council at that time will depend the number and character of the new bridges, whether all asked for will be given, and whether they will be of stone, concrete or steel. Couuty Surveyor Harry Klausman has completed and submitted to the Board of County Commissioners surveys for the four bridges, and will prepare estimates of the cost of the three kinds of bridges for all four places. Knowing the estimated cost for each kind at each point. It will thn be up to the County Council to decide what shall be done in each case.

It is understood that the commissioners are In favor of stone bridges in every case where the character of the grouud aiid the width of the river wll! permit it. That can only be determined after the report of the county surveyor. In the event that the Council decides that stone bridges cannot be built at all four of the places, it Is thought that the commissioners will insist on a stone bridge, of ornamental and artistic design, at Emrlchsvtlle. and steel and s-tone bridges at the other three places, similar to the bridge now building at Washington street The stone bridge at Emrichsville is urged and insisted upon by the mayor and the city officials because the bridge leads into Riverside Park, and because the bauks of the river are high nough to give ample room for a good arch at th.it point. Besides considering the question of a bond Issue to cover the cost of the new bridges, the County Council will take up the claims at county elerkb and sheriffs for sums of ne.ney aggregating said to be due them for court attendance by a recent decision of the Bupieme Court.
