Soo bridge
Soo bridge is being built by four railraods in conjuntion with the GT, CPR, DSS&A, and the MSSM&A. The contracts have all been awarded. The contract for the entire substructure has been let to the well known bridge builder, J. Reid. The high price of iron and steel in the United States sustained by the protective tariff, compared with the low price in Canada of improted British metal, enabled the Dominion Bridge Company, whose's workers are at Lachine, Que., to so far underbid all american builders in the competition for the steel and the iron works.
