been conducting the meeting, which will be
continued by the resident minister and Mr..

AN examination of the cables of the sus-
pension bridge which recently gave way at
Pittsburg revealed a state of things which
cannot fail to excite alarm in regard to the
safety of other bridges supported by wires.
The cables were originally composed of
twenty strands of wire. In the one which
broke, only eleven wires remained at the
point of fracture, the others having corroded
away, and some of those had been reduced
to the size of knitting needle. The
bridge, which had stood fifteen years, was
known to be unsafe, and was closed to pub
lie travel more than a month ago. But no
one suspected that the wires composing the
cable were so eaten away by corrosion az
the examination showed them to be.
