WORK IS RUSHED ON BRIDGE Vicr "Vo. 1 on Madison-Street Struc ture About Completed. Construction work on the new Madison-street bridge is progressing rap idly and a considerable amount of the time lost during the high water of last December is being made up. Approaches from both the east and west sides are ncaringr completion and it will only be a matter of a few weeks until steel work will be well under way. On the under structures Robert Wakefield has a force of 65 men at work and about an equal number are in the employ of the United Engineering & Construc tion Company, working on the ap proaches. Tomorrow morning the remains of vlie old draw pier will be blown out and work on the new buttments will be commenced. The west pier of the old bridge Is the only one left stand ing and that will be oestroyed during the week. Pier No. 1, on the east side iff the river, is about complete and piers two and three are rapidly ap proaching completion.

For the passage of streetcars, heavy steel Is being laid at the approaches and the track plan will be similar to that of the Burnside-street bridge. The cars will run on the extreme outsldes of the roadway and will leave the cen ter clear for the passage of teams.

STUDY FREE Sixty Forest Rangers at Uni versity of Washington. OREGON MEN ARE ON LIST Large X umber of Employes Under Pint-hot Drew Salaries While Studying Until Practice Was Declared Illegal. SEATTLE, Wash., Feb. 12. (Special.) Many Oregon men were included among the employes of the Forest Service who, under the direction of Gifford Pinchot, were sent to the University of Washing ton to take a course in forestry at the expense of the Government. Altogether 60 Government employes enrolled this year in the University of Washington, their salaries being kept up until an ad verse decision In the matter was given by Controller of the Treasury Tracewell. Employes at Other Schools. Few acta of the Pinchot administra tion in the Forest Service have called forth more severe criticism than the paying of salaries to men In the service while they were pursuing their studies and doing absolutely no work for the Government. While 60 Federal employes were studying et Washington, the extent of the practice was much wider for other Forest Service employes were at the same time enrolled at the Universi ties of Montana and Colorado and at the Utah Agricultural College. It is esti mated that fully 200 Government em ployes were having their education paid, for In this way. at a cost to thj Gov ernment of from $15,000 to ,20,000 a month. According to the decision of the Con troller of the Treasury there was abso lutely no authorization of law for the practice) of the Pinchot administration of sending forest rangers to school and keeping up their salaries while there. While the course is short and in many ways practical, the rangers are civil service employes and are expected to be fitted for their work before entering the Government service. Secretary Gives Opinion. In a letter to the Controller of the Treasury, asking for a decision as to the legality of this practice. Secretary of Ag riculture Wilson said: If this plan can be legally carried' on by the Forest Service, I see no reason why the dis crimination should be made againat men em ployed In other branches of scientific work in the Department of Agriculture, which would Involve the payment of salaries from appro priations made for tbe department, for meat inspectors at veterinary schools, chemists at chemical schools, pomologlsts, horticulturists, agronomists and others at the various agri cultural colleger, etc. It Is true that some of the men might be made more efficient by such courses and the plan would popularize the department among ambitious young men de sirous of securing an education along techni cal lines, but I do not believe it was the in tention of Congress that greater efficiency In the individual should be secured by paying from Government funds for his education at a private or state institution of learning. A portion of Mr. Traeewell's reply fol lows: Tou have cited me to no statute nor have I been able, in the short time at my com mand, to find any law which, by fair Interpre tation, Is broad enough In Its scope to author ize you to use the appropriation for the ForeM Service to pay the salaries or compensation of forest rangers while in attendance at colleges or their traveling expenses while going from their stations to said colleges, and return therefrom. .
