A Trial Trip that Was Declared {
Complete Success.
New YORK, Aug, Is

New YORK, Aug. Is.
After many vexatious delays, seccessful
trip was made over the Brooklyn Bridge
railway this afternoon. At two o'clock Col.
Paine said the last finishing touches had been
put on, and all that could be done had been
accomplished to make trial trip possible.
Accordingly party of gentlemen assembled
at the Brooklyn terminus and boarded a car
that stood upon the track just outside the
station. After seeing that the grip was in
working order, Col. Paine gave the signal to
shoot, and at 2.40 the rope, and the car with
it, began to move, but, when the Brooklyn
tower was reached, by some unexpainable
means signal was given to stop the rope
which was done, and the car had to return
from whence it started. Col. Paine told a
reporter that some malicious person had
been tampering with the wires. A second
attempt was more successful, the gr.plcatch-
ing the rope at 3.06 precisely. The car
glided easily over the rails. No vibration
was apparent in the car, and the noise of the
rope being hardly discernable. The Brook
lyn tower was reached in two minutes. The
speed, Col Paine said, was about 10 miles an
hour. Everything worked smoothly, as the
carriage passed over the iron girder, and the
only sensation to be obtained by glancing
over the platform of the car at the water be-
meath. Crowds of people watched the prog
ress over the bridge. The speed was fully
maintained. The New York tower was
reached at 30 There the grade commenced
to fall towards the New York side, but Col
Paine still kept the grip on, and the motion
of the car was as agreeable as ever. As the
middle of the bridge approach was reached
the grip was taken off and the patent brake
applied, and as all worked to perfection, the
car glided at a slow pace into the New York
station at II, making the time of the jour
ney exactly six minutes, Col. Paine said to
the reporter II am satisfied; the grip works
to perfection, and we will open the railway to
the public as soon as the grips, upon which
% men are working, are finished. When
that will be, can't certainly saw"
