Keith, Ba Mahon, Lambert\nHond and li, Oilman, representing the Hurrard Intel I iiniiel\nand Bridge Company. Mr. A.\nlv Woods, managing director\nol the V. W. & V.

They were all agreed th.u\nthe bridge would lie ol gi>al\nbent-lit to Norih Vancouver ..mi\nof even greater benefit to Van\ncouver.\nKrevi> Mi Naughl reviewed the\nhistory ol the Second Narrows\nbridge project. A charter for\nthe construction of the bridgi\nhad for years been in lhe hands\nof the V. W. & V. Kailway Co.,\nbut nothing had ken done. He\nhimself had pressul llial unu-\npany to lake active steps, without avail, until he ll.nl at last\nsought other means ol securing\nthe bridge, lt li.nl la-en found\nthut the charier of lhe Hurrard\nTunnel and Bridge Coinpanv,\ngranted eighteen years ago,was\nstill intact, uud il had accordingly been acquired.\nThe Provincial I'.overniiinii\nhud bests consulted ami s tubs!-\ndy of $250,000 hud been promised Irom thut source ou condition thut the bridge wus toll-\ntrollt-d by the municipalities interested, ulso ihat all railways\nsliould have running privileges\nover it oil llie same basis, ami\nthat it was to Ih- free lor pules-\ntriau and veluuilar trallic.\nThe respsctive municipalities\nwere then appi'ti.u lied and a tentative agreement had lieen ar-\nrivinl at for raising sscassary\nbinds by co-operation. Tlic\\\nlikewise hud good reason lo ue-\nlirvii that substantial assist am c\nwoultl Ik.- forthcoming Irolll the\nDominion Government. If .he\nextended powers sought .i -re\ngranted and iln dominion sub-\nMil \\ uas secured, il was hoped\nthat work nn llie bridge woultl\nbe started in a few tiionllis \u201e'.d\nthat it would lie completed in\nabout iK Months. The estim\nateil cost of the bridge eras Jl,-\n11011,1100, alld already eastern\nCapitalists had been seeking llie\nprivilege ol providing any a-\nmolint up to the total cost ol\nthe structure. The Provincial\ngovernment .lad promised S250,\n000, the distriit oi North Vancouver would provide f 100,(1 m,\nor probably |soo,ooo il Secss-\nsarv. It was hoped that tin*\ncitv ol Vancouver would lotttri-\nl-ntu $50,000 and that the Dominion subsidv, votes from the\nother municipalities and private\nsubscriptions would eoinplcti\nthe required ulilount.\nA.

His\nCOtttpany hud always expressed\nthemselves as desiring to work\nwith the municipalities to secure not only a railway bridge,\nbul u bridge for pedestrian und\nvehicular trallic. A railwa)\nbridge by itsell would be a mis-\ntttke. His coinpanv had a sul>-\nsidy ol 1)00,000 Irom the Dominion Government and it was\ndesirable lhat that subsidy be\nmade available. In order to do\nthus it was necessary that tin\nbridge should be built by the\nV. W. tk V. Kuilwuy Company.\nHis compauy hud ollered to\nturn the bridge over to a holding company, in which the mu\nnicipalilies would be represent\ned. The railway, however,\nwould have to control the\nbridge in order lo make good\nthc claim on the Dominion\ngrant.
