EAGLE PASS, Texas, June 25.—
The Southern aPciflc system haB just
completed a new bridge across the
Rio Grande river at this point which
is said to be the most substantial
bridge spanning the river at any oth-
er point. The new bridge is of iron
and steel construction with concrete
columns, reinforced with steel, sup-
| porting it. The bridge Is three feet
higher than the former structure and
three feet above the highest flood
point in the history of the stream.
This bridge connects the line from
San Antonio with the Southern Pacif-
ic’s system in Mexico, running from
Pledras Negras to Mexico . City.
It has been reported that the South-
ern aPcifir has considered building
another line from Eeeville to connect
with its lines at this place. This
would give direct connection from
Houston, New Orleans and other im-
portant southern points to the City
of Mexico.
