DRAW TOO LOW FOR TALL SHIPS Proposed Steel Bridge Dis - cussed at Port Commis sion Meeting. t Although Chief Engineer Boschke and Attorney A. C Spencer of the O, R. A N. Ry. Co. were present at the meetlna of the Port of Portland commission yes- teraay aiternoon ana nad tnelr plans lor the new structure whleh Is to take the place- of the present steel bridge, the subject was not gone into very deeply and the presentation of the plana was deferred until a later meettntr. at the suggestion of Vice President Pease, who occupied the chain In the absence of President Swigert. The commission also wisnea to nave tne 'matter or. a fran chise looked Into by an attorney before msinir any atepa towara granting it. A little discussion of the bridge plans took . place, but it was - of a desultory sort but most of the commissioners seemed to be of the opinion that the upper deck of the bridge should be made wider, the present plans - calling for omy is reet center space ana an eignt foot space on each aide. vChlef Engi neer Boschke said that It would be pos sible to arrange, that mattsr, ana lortn with produced s blueprint which he said he was doing unofficially. They care fully .looked .over the pflnt, which pro vided for ah entire change in the upper deck of the bridge, which had been pre pared -by. the engineers- in case the commission should see fit to reject the original ones. The hew plan, which showed a cross section of the bridge, changes the upper deck in such a manner that it gives it feet of space in the center for street oars, two 14 foot spaces on each side for vehicles and two 6 foot sidewalks- out side of those for the accommodation of pedestrians. The new plan, which was retained by Mr. Boschke, seemed to be favorable to all of the - commissioners. and it is expected that they will enter Into negotiations in tne ruture ana it is probable that an upper deck of this tvne will oe cailea ror in tne irancnise. as one of this description would allow uninterrupted traffic, the vehicles al ways keeping to the right of the car tracks. .

Active operations have already com menced, r more, costly, however, as all of the lower works ofthe bridge would have to be made of heavier steel, but It Is thought that the differenco In cost would not be enough to make discrimi nation worth while. , Stays Draw Opens Too Xw. The onlv nerson who made any oppo- altion to the Diana was Attorney George S. Shepherd, who placed before the com mission the plan of a full rigged ship, the Leyland Brothers, which is In port, the tops of whose masts are nearly 200 feet above the water. His Idea was to show that It would bo Impossible for u ship of such a slse to get through the bridge. He argued that although this ship Is larger than most full rigged ahlna. the malority of - them are only about 10 feet lower, and the bridge as planned only having a lirt or iao ieet, u would be Impossible for them to get throuarh. Members of the commission argued that ships of that description were rapidly going out of use, their places being taken, by steamers, the lure-nut of which Could get through, and In case one did have to go through, the upper masts could be taken down. Bids on pilotage and towage bonds were opened the greater part , of the meetlna belna taken up in this manner. as well ss bids on supplies and several other matters which were laid over until the next meeting. The successful bid der on the bonds was W. F. White, a local bond dealer, who was awarded 180.000 of the bonds at e per cent, this being; thenlghest bid.
