IMPORTANT Very Often Our Advertisements in 3 Daily Papers Differ in Items Advertised. Read All Our Advertisements Every Day BRIDGE CASE UNSOLVED LETTERS FROM COMMERCIAL BOD IES ADVOCATE AGREEMENT. County Commlnaloners Hold Brief Dls enaalon and Adjourn Intll Next Monday Mornlns. No solution of the entanglement re Cardln? the lease of the upper deck of the Harriman bridge was arrived at by the County Commissioners at -their first informal hearing on the subject yesterday. The hearing was held on the petition of the O.-W". R. & N. Com pany that the Commissioners fix tolls bo the structure could be maintained as a toll bridge. Letters sent by the Commissioners to the Chamber 'of Commerce and the Commercial Club asking advice on the situation, were to the effect that the bridge ought to be kept open for free public traffic, and that the rental paid the railroad company for the upper deck of the bridge should be de termined by the original conditions under which the bridge was leased. The. question of the county leasing the bridge was not discussed at any length. Commissioner Holman de clared that if a rate of' rental was to be fixed, it should be determined from the income that could be derived from a fair toll rate for all vehicles passing over the bridge. "We can do only one of three things," said Commissioner Lightner. "We can lease the bridge for the county, we can close the bridge, or we can fix tolls. If we did allow it to be operated as a. toll bridge, that would be tantamount to closing t, for all the traffic would go to one of the other four bridges. "I don't think, anybody wants to see the bridge closed, or operated as a toll bridge. Under the contract with the city, however, the petition asking for toll rates was the only recourse of the railroad company." The board will meet again at 10 o'clock Monday morning.
