SOUTH SCRANTON NOTES.
Demolition of the Bridge Leading to
the Flats Is Threatened "Would
Be a Serious Mattel-.
Tho moving away of the steel mills
Is likely to eaus-e somo Inconvenience
to many residents on this side unless
some action is taken in the meantime.
The demolition of workshops and stor
age buildings; has been followed by the
tearing up of tho rails and ties which
were used for so many yenrs in hauling
material to various parts of the plant.
Recently a gang of men have been en
gaged around the old machine shop at
tho foot of Alder street in removing the
tracks and they stated to some of the
residents that it was the company's
intention to take down the bridge
which at this point crosses the Roaring
llrook, and Is the only direct route
which connects the lower Hats with the
South Side. Should It be torn down
it will compel workmen and others to
make a long detour. This bridge has
been in place for many years, and is
used dally by at least LOCO employes
of the Ijehiwnre, Lackawanna, and
Western company, and the American
Locomotive works, going and coining
from work. Hundreds of others find
it a great saving of time to cross the
creek at this place, and If compelled to
go round would have to travel sis
blocks out ot the way. A large num
ber of people livo in the Hats who wor
ship in the South Side churches, and to
them the bridge's disappearance would
be a serious matter,
t"nder these circumstances It lias
been suggested that the city authori
ties take tho matter up and see whether
the Lackawanna Iron nnd Steel com
pany cannot, bo Induced to leave the
roadway open for tho use of the peo
ple. If this can be arranged amicably, ex
Constable Weolkers, who has a quanti
ty of lumber on hand, from a houso
erected nearby, stntes that he will build
a stairway from the bridge to the top
of the hill, making tho ascent easy and
safe.
