IN CONNECTION WITH THE
Picturesque Lehigh Valley Railroad, via Niagara Falls. GRAND TRUNK NEW SINGLE ARCH DOUBLE TRACK STEEL BRIDGEND 1 OVER THE MAGARA RIVER.
The new bridge is a single steel arch of 50 feet in length, supplemented span. it either end, of Ha feet in length. This with the approachies, makes the total length of the bridge sheathy over the feet. The railway tracks surmounting the bridge are DE feet above the water. The bridge has two decks or doors. I On the upper floor there are two tracks for railway purposes exclusively, while the lower floor contains a wide central carriageway, double electric railway tracks, and on either side passage- way for pedestrians.
As an evidence of the enormous strength of this beutiful structure, that arch is do. signed to carry on each railway track a load of two locomotives with four pairs of drivers each and tom pounds on each pair, followed by a train of $ 500 pounds per run- ning foot, and is designed to carry in addition a live load of 3,00 pounds pec running foot of the loser floor ) The general public will, however, probably be better alle to arrive at a correct understanding of the enormous sustaining power of the new bridge by the fact that it is calculated to sustain a weight of something lover six times the sustaining capacity of the historie Suspension Bridge, which it replaces.

Introductory
OFFICE CITY DIRECTORY NOVEMBER 12, 1901 1
ITH this, our tenth annual directory of Des Moines we feel that we are furnishing, !
W , not only the most complete and accurate work of its character ever compiled in this city, but a publication that is fully in keeping with the rapid developement that has characterized all the departments, commercial and otherwise, of the best city in the best state in the union, during the eventful year now drawing to a close,! In. no year in its history has Des Moines expanded so much in population, manufacturing and in its commercial life. New mercantile institutions of great credit to the city have been established, jobbing houses in several lines have been opened, and a large number of labor employing factories, ranging from those of small capital to one of the largest pack ing, concerns in the west, have taken advantage of the city's superior railroad facilities and cheap fuel and staked their all on the citys future. 1
". This volume evidences the rapid growth and developement of the city in more ways than one but probably more by the increased number of| addresses given. This volume contains 36,800 names and addresses, an increase of 1,149 in the year. Deducting five per; cent., this at the usual ratio, for duplicates, etc., and multiplying by 2}, the accepted mul tiple, and it will be seen Des Moines has a population of 87.400, a gain of 3,440 in the year
Probably no other medium so fully demonstrates the anvancement and sommer- 1 cial greatness of a city, than does a directory. It is more than a catalogue of addresses, it is a startling reflection of the city's progress and development from an examination o which those seeking to invest or for a location can quickly arrive at an estimate of the city's worth, attractiveness etc.
It is with pleasure that we offer this volume to our patrons and the public because of our confidence in its completeness and accuracy of detail.
We wish to express our appreciation of the co-operation extended to us by the citi zens in giving accurate information and' extending courteous treatment to our catvassers while collecting the data for this work.
