SUB-STRUCTURE NOW NEARING COMPLETION, Work on New Thames River Bridge Is Progressing Rapidly. The sub-structure for jthe new Thames river bridge will probably be entirely finished within the next two ‘months, providing that the material is recefved in due time.

Both the east and west abutments, plers No. 1, 2, 3 and 4 are entirely fin- ished, and nothing remains to be done , until the eteel arrives at the bridge. The steel is not expected before June 1, therefore for a few momths there Will be absolutely no work going on o The sub-structure of this bridge has ~rsnE P & been one of the largest and most in- At Providence Convention. teresting engineering feats performed Miss Florence S.
