Structure 0?er TKc Broad at C*tuw b*a I>r*trv)rd Sunday Night I _ ColumbiA, Nov. 29.- The- Broad r ver bridge, used by hundreds of vehicles daily in entering and leaving Columbia from the north, waa de stroyed by fire early tonight. Flames di*C^?tnd about 7 o'clock at* Lacking the- long wooden structure on state highway No. 2, just at the edge of the city, and the fire depart ment . ru?h<*1 apparatus to the scene quickly but could not ?>&ve the bridge. Traffic to and from Columbia ovtr highway No. 2, north of here, is jtd vUtd b> the state highway depart ment w> detour by C ha pin, and I >e*. ington. The bridge was bought by Colum b it\ town*hip. for $10,000 in 1911 from private own >n who had operated it as a toll bridge. It was insured for $5ii,u00. The cause of the fire was not knov.n tonight. Some part, of the Broad river bridge were more >.han 100 years old. The original structure was practically destroyed by the Confederates in, an effort to hinder the advance of Gen eral Sherman upon the capital of the state in 1865, but it %^a* restored two years later. Available records indi > catethat the federal troops entered Columbia on pontoons adjacent to the bridge, and were not delayed by the conditions of the structure. It was estimated tonight that to replace the bridge with similar mater ia! would cost from $150,000 to $200, 000, but, it was indicated, no consid eration will -be given this aspect of the matter by the authorities before? tomorrow.
