NEW BRIDGE BILL PUZZLE
No One Seems Able to Say Who
Back of the Latest
Project.
Is
For what purpose a charter for a bridge
between Omaha and Council Eluffs has
just been secured from congress Is a matter
of conjecture among all those Interested tn
the present bridges and there is an Inter
esting mystery in the present move, as It
Is thought It may mean the revival of some
of the old bridge schemes.
John R. Webster Of the Omaha Bridge
and Terminal company, which bridge is
used by the Illinois Central Railroad com
pany, said:
"I really don't know anything about the
new charter. So many charters have been
granted that I have ceased to Inquire when
a new charter Is obtained. Perhaps It is
for some of the plans already made. I re
member at one time a cheap bridge was to
be erected between South Omaha and Lake
Manawa. This was a promising project.
Perhaps the new ' charter is for such a
bridge."
Another probability suggested , by bridge
builders Is that the fridge looks to a cross
ing for the lnterurban railroads projected
In western Iowa. Congressman Smith of
Council Bluffs obtained a charter at one
time for a bridge which would enable the
projected electric roads to have access to
Omaha without paying a high toll to the
bridge companies now maintaining bridges.
But the new bridge charter is a mystery,
sine it Is for a structure between Omaha
and Council Bluffs, now having three
bridges. The Burlington has secured right-of-way
for approachea to a bridge below
Sioux City and It would have been no sur
prise if the company had aecured a charter,
since the 1 1111 lines have lft (he old com
bination bridge at Sioux City and are now
paying heavy rental lor tha use of the
Omaha high bridge.
