abutments were good, it was concluded
that a concrete arch bridge would re
quire the removal of these piers and
abutments, and it was thought that the
cost of such a structure would be ex
cessive.
It was therefore decided at first to j
build a steel girder bridge and plans
were prepared for same. The contractor
who finally built the bridge, however,
stated that a properly designed con-
Company, of Philadelphia, awarded the
contract for the W. O. Hickok Manu
facturing plant, has already commence 1 .!
work on the new plant in Sibletown.
Sites are being staked off for the build
ings and excavating will be commenced
shortly. The contract time for tho
completion of the buildings is 150 days.

More than JIOO was turned over to

Crete arch ibridge could be built for less
cost than the steel structure, even
though (he old abutments would have
to ibe removed, aud he so the
County Commissioners. They then de
cided to give all contractors the right
to submit, 'bids on concrete designs, as
well as steel, covering the same condi
tions as the steel structures, aud in com
