ders will be called for soon for the
construction of a new bridge to
replace the one that collapsed in
Exeter no Saturday, Nov. 2nd. Such
was the information received by a
deputation that visited Queen's

M.L.A., to Toronto on Thursday of
last week where they held an inter-
view with 51r. Smith, deputy-nfiniet.er
of Highways. Mr. Smith assured
the deputation that the work of snr-
veying, drawing plans, etc., had been
going ahead rapidly and that. tend-
ers would be called for in the very
near future. The new bridge Will
have a roadway of thirty feet, twelve
feet loader than the old bridge, with
a foot walk along the west side. Ap-
proaeh to the bridge, especially it'rtttt
the north will of necessity be widen-
ed. Whether or not a lend porary
bridge will be erected Inas not been
decided. The deputation pointed inn.
that the Loss of the bridge has al-
ready meant a great tiunucial loss to
the business interests of Exeter and
that the si(deroad now being used lt�.

to look as if they will not have a

will have to act quickly as the dead-
