That Which Crosses the Missowri at Plattsmouth Proves Im- mense in Strength aud Proportions, The Trial Test Witnessed by Hundreds of People on Both Sides of the: Big Muddy. The Result Satisfactol it Special Dspateh to The Bee. Pratrsyouri, Neb., August 30.— The formal test of the vew railway bridge joining the B. & M.and C., B. & Q., took place this morning. All Plattemouth is in holiday attire ard by 10 o'clock tho hills adjacent to the now and beautiful structure was lincd with people. On the fowa bank the farmers turned ont with teams ard All families and over 2000 ‘persons were present. At 9 oclock a special train ©ntaining oflicials of the C., B. & Q. from Chicago, arrived at Pacific Junction, and shortly after- wards crossed over the by Lo the Nebraska side. It was followed by the B. & M. s, evial, which croseed the bridge early this morning aiid met the officers of the Burlington rosd. As the {rains finished the crossirg cight heavy engines of the C. B. & Q: ro1d approached the castern the bridge and crossing slowly to the east apan in sections of four waited for the word to cotiple, At the given signal the cight engines joined them- selves on the fuur hundred foot castern span, making the test weight 440 tons distributed ovei 320 fect of the span, the result was a magnificent p-oof of the solidify of the structure. Tho engiucers (hen measured the deflection and a photograph was taken of the bridge at the momenit the test wastaken. The engines then moved to the second span whero tno trial proved cqually eatisfactory and tho “all steel” bridgo across the Missouri riser at Plattemocth was declared open. The test was more satisfactory than was antlcipated, the deflection froma level when the immense weight of 440 tous was placed upon the span was only threo inches, and when the engines were removed the bridge resumad its original pesition. The bridge, built of iron and skael, in 3000 & 5 L 1t coitsists of 1440 teet of an 1run via- duct joined to thres deck spans 200 feet in length and west ‘of that to- wards the Nebraska shore aud over the river proper two spans of 400 feet each, all steel truss. The cut through the bank on the Nebraska side is in some places 60 feet deep. The piers of the bridgs rise 80 feet above low water mark,; and sink thirty feet be- low the level of the river. The bridge was constructed by the Keystone Bridge Co., of Philadelphia, George 8. Morrison, ~chief 0 H W Parkhurst, as- ant, and C. B, charge of the superstructure. Among thoso present were the fol- lowing officials of the C. B. & Q.: W. C. Terkins, superintendent of the Towa division; D. W. Hiteheock, G. P. A.; James R. Wood, G. T. A.; W. J. Davenport, from Omaha; Percival Lowell, assistant general manager; Geo. Holdrage, general superintend- eat; and T.E. Calvert, chief engineer. engin first Schneider in Correspondence of the Bax. Prarrswovrn, Neb., August 30.— The second bridge over the Missouri, connecting Inwa and Nebraska, is completed and the test of its ability to bear the enormous loads of Ne- braska’s producs, hurriel eastward over the Chicago, Burlington & Quin- ey road, has proved a magnificent suc- cess. All Nobraska has reason for rojoicing in this new connecting link between her boundaries and the east, and a large number of Nebraskaus yesterday crowded Plattemouth and lined the high bluffs of the Missouri to witness the trial | st test of the besutiful structure which joins Plattsmouth with the Iowa shore. At an early hour fn the morning the farmers from the neigh- boring country came pouring into the busy litile town. The streels wore an air of general holiday actisity. Across the Missours; which at this point narrow to a respectably desp and rapid cnrrent, teams filled with families clusterad along the river side, and hundreds of interested spectators thrcnged the banks. Shortly after 8 o'clock the B. & M. special from Omaha, bearing officials of the road, arrived in Plattsmouth and, sweeping through the deep cut in the bank which marks the approach to the bridge, passed on the structure and crossed to the Iowa side, where a special, consisting of the C., B. Q. coach 50, Pullman coach “Rochester” and the magniticent dining car “San Francisco,” filled with officials of the Burlington road, was awaiting their arrival, By this time all Plattsmouth secm- ed fo have deserted the town, and with one accord started for the bridge. The cut was filled with people; the banka were lined with spectatora eager to witnesa the trial, and even the top of the superstructure itself was black with employes of the road. At a lit- tlo after 10, the two trains bearing the railroad officials crossed the bridge tc the Nebraska side and balted near the bank. Immediately in their rear came eight engines and tenders ot the C., B. & Q. railroad, each weighing sixty-two tons, and in two sections of four each, slowly crawled along the iron trestle work. The excitement of both officials and spectators was now at its hei The enormona weight ot almost a mil- the streets of | lion pounds was abant to be ted over 400 feet of iron lal aud the tost was one w t awaken tho anxiety of those prese hi ‘@ was a moment of suspens | the signal wns given. At the word the cight engincs cotipled and moved slowly on to the which they covered from one end to theother, A halt of fifteon minutes was made amid the sbricks of the steam whistles from the two transfer boats on the river below. The biid engineers busicd themselves di the interval in measuring the e of the weight upon U their grea i fled 2a inches iy the en; moments later, moved on the west span the vacated truss resumed its original position. The test on the Nebraska side epan proving equally satisfactory, the bridge was declared approved, and a perfect pandemonium of steam whistles split the air with their no* y enthusiagiii. THE BRI was commenced in the spring of 1870 cti when the work was began upon tho caissons for tho thres stoue picrs whichnow support the superstruc ture. Work was delayed by hizhwat- erso thatit was ot until February of the present year that the laying of the girders of the bridge proper was Tho first pier cn tho west ond pier is 38 feer below the level of low wa'er. <uperstructure ix 5,000 feet lonz. narrowness of the river channel is ta- | 5 ken advantago of at this pointand is croseed by two spans from thy Ne braskas'de, which are 400 feot cach inlongth.

The view from the bridgeis a lively one. Up the river he elear water of the Plitte is seen g into themurky currents of the Big Muddy, the line of demarca- tion being phinly visible. Thewood- ed blnfls of Plattsmouth hide the riv- «ras it curves towards tlhie northwest, while the buildings of the thriving lit tle town are well set off by the back: ground of green and brown of the ueighboring hulls.

Ultimately there is no doubt that the competition will tell to the benefit of the producer. For the present there is little prospeet of the Burlington traius runving into Oma- ha. Such action would mean the dis- ruption of the Towa pool, which just now is tuo profitable to all cor cerned for them to desire its dissolution. Should the Wabash, however, refuse to enter into the poc), aud & fight en sus for freight and passe , then, without doubt, the C. B. & Q. would runits trains into our city and force the other roadsto do the same. That this may happen at some futvre day there is every reason to beliove. e St. Julien's Price.
