HOW TO MAKE ROOM FOR ALL.

To tie Editor Of The Tribune.
SIR: l suggest to those gentlemen who are
interesting themselves with the problem OF how to i'm
prove the Brooklyn Bridge that 1t can accommodate
greatest crowds OF foot passengers which may wish
TO cross it, that they take position upon the Bridge near
the New.York tower and imagine its improved con-
dition with the following changes made: Raise
thu flooring Of the footway to tie top
of the railroad trusses. then widen 1t 80 as
TO cover both lines OF those trusses giving 1t
nearly four times its present capacity set
the present stations at the entrances Of the Bridge 100
feet or more. Extend the flooring upon which the
stations the streets In trout OF the BRIDGE
Erect an iron viaduc above the present masonry cause
way, and continue the footway thereon without steps
full width the Bridge proper 10 the
outer beyond the stations, where the Level OF the
platform and street bridge can be gained Dy COM
odious of easy flights. Foot passengers crossing
the upon the Bridge would thus avoid the street
traffic and room without crowding for all who may
come. side flights Of stairs could accommodate persons
who do wish 10 cross the street. -
By making the changes indicated the Bridge will have
q capacity to accommodate foot passengers equal TO

GATES TO PREVENT A PANIC.

SIR: The last disaster ON the Brooklyn
Bridge has suggested to my mind very simple plan
whereby recurrence Of such disaster would be i'm
possible. would suggest that at every five hundred
feet throughout the length OF the Bridge elevated
aiding gate be placed similar to those used the Long
Island Railroad In Atsntic-aye, Brooklyn, and ct each
gate policeman be stationed whose duty 1t should DO to
sce that order maintained In the space allotted TO
him and his gate closed any rush or any undue
crowdng his station. AS the Bridge Is thousand
feet long this would Decessrae twentyfour policemen,
twelve always on duty and twelve to relieve tlem an
with the gates at their command which could be instant
IL lowered OF need would be simply impossible
