PROOF OF P08TIN0 ABOVE NOTICE. Councilman J. A. Conrad stated that he bad notified the Miami Traction Company that they could not cross the 12th Street Bridge with the tracks but to stop at Avenue Z on the meat side and River Drive on the west side as he did not oonsidsr the bridge safe to carry the rails and equipment otnnhs Traction Company and that the draw oould not be turned by hand with the weight of the rails; that it was a very good bridge and oouw.d no doubt be used by the city at another point; that the street oar oospany w8u14 want to cross during the next few months in order to live up to the term of their franchise and a new bridge should be oonstruoted at once. That the present bridge is too low .4ao wide from the fact that it is insufficient to carry the street oars, and recommended immediate action with a view to oonstruoting a bridge that will answer all requirements and oontora to the street and sidewalk approoahes, preferably a connote struoture so fax as that material oan be used and stated that he had a letter fros a bridge company offering to make all necessary plans and preliminary estimates, eto, without oost to the pity. Oounoilman Ralston stated that it was generally agreed that both the 1Sth Street and Avenue D bridges should be renewed at onoe, and that while the oounoil hPdno knededge of bridge building, it appeared the best thing to do was to some oomplste data before nest meting of the legislature and then secure authority to issue bonds necessary to build the necessary bridges. Mr. Ralston stated he did not think the city should take the data furnished by a bridge company any more than the plans for street paw should be taken from a paving oospany, but thought such speoifioations, pleas and estimates should be aside by someone who' makes a spsoialty of bridge work and then build the bridge by ooatract, the work to be supervised by the of yes representative who made the plans. Councilman Conrad replied that the oity could secure everything free of cost, in the well of poundings, estimates and plans. Counoilman Routh stated that in the vase of the Avenue D bridge, built by the county, the opinion had bees expressed that while the bridge was a good one, the oouaty did net get what it paid fax because of the foot that the plans were made by the builders. 0ounoilmen 8alstos stated that he thought the oity should get someone to make the preliminary plans, sounds sad estimates and repreeent the sity.ia the Qagatruati40 the bride. �', ''4 "i ky�AJ j uo*sollaaa Reath etat4 :that the Oily *Sad agiM:.e dir' be 114111,41001 for sixty days previol*e to the a rtiog .s# t, t i should go ea record and request tie hay* to'aavertirn aeeerdi Mewed by X. 0.
