Mr. Danfortli says the talk hero ecms to be all for a suspension bridge. l snspension bridge would have to ' amain one height for all time, lie rys. It conld not be raised. lie liinks a steel bridge conld be put np rhich wonhl not mar the beauty ot i itlier place. The draw would be at ’ last as wide as that of the new Rari- i in river bridge. A cantilever bridge i ould bo considered, but that would o the sumo ns a suspension. It would ave to be of oue height. A stone roll bridge is not nt all adaptable. { Ir.
