A MASSIVE CONSTRUCTION. :-
In connection with the building of the now. railway route from Tientsin to Taissölu, the contract for building the great Iron bridge over the Yallow River has been secured by the Augsburg Nurnberg Machine Works and Bridge Building Co. This bridge will ba'a massive construction of a kind like the Forth Bridge, and not like the que that crossst the Hwange along the Peking-Hankow line, the length of which is two milan. Great precaution was taken along the Tastel-Pakow liga to select & Darrower stretch of the vivar bod........... This waS found at Loku, where the Yellow Alvar, at low water, is only one-fifth of a mile wide.' During part of the ralny season the river bad stretches out only two-fifths of a mile, but whan the highest water is reached the width is almost
two miles.
The Chinese Gaverament, which spends millione la conserving the river embankmenis, bolds the Governors of the provlaces respon- |sible where and when such dienstere happen, It is, therefore, evident that all poisible care was taken in studying the conditions for the building of a
