The Memphis appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1886-1890, 1888-12-16

The first caisson OF the great bridge to
span the river below this city was launched
near West Memphis yesterday at 1880
o'clock IN the afternoon. 1t was success
and those who engineered the work are
naturally much elatcd over it,
No publicity was given to the ceremony
and nobody was there TO look at the in
teresting proceedings, except the railway
authorities and the men engaged upon its
construction, about 100 persons in all.
The reason for this was the fact that tho
river has receded so much that solicitude
was felt as to the success Of the launch.
For this Chief Engineer Noble requested
that the matter be kept quiet, as he did
not wish 10 have crowd in attendance to
witness failure.
The work Of building the first caisson has
been going on for two months, or such
matter, and of late IL has been pushed with
vigor, IN the force was anxious TO have II
noated and sunk while the river is low.
The success attending the launch yester-
day tx therefore dOubly gratifying TO those
who are directing the construction OF the
! bridge, the chief engineer in charge being
Mr.. A. Noble, who has had much expe-
rience in this line, having built bridge
over the Hudson River and also managed
similar work ut other points.
II would DC well enough to understand
that the caisson IL a massive structure Of
wood and iron into which the stone pier
is to be built. II is water-tight and about
sevcnty-hvo feet long and twenty-five feet
wide. The lower part II called chamber,
and this Is made OF very strong boiler
iron, liz depth being eight feet. On top
OF this In the wooden structure, built OF
heavy timbers. The caisson being
alloat at present will be located where
the stone bridgc-picr is TO stand. II is TO
be sunk To the bottom by building ma
sonry on the upper side. When IL rests
on the bottom OF the river w0rkmen will
go down inside Of the chamber, under the
masonry, descending through valve doors,
there to dig aud loosen the earth below,
have Il raised by means OF powerful air
and water pumps, or blow-pipcs, 10 LET
the caisson sink slowly but surely by
means OF the great weight OF masonry on
the top, until II reaches its final founda-
ton, perhaps 100 ieet or more below the
bed Of the river.
This was the system in vogue when
other bridges were built at Cairo and
elsewhere, aud in the main Il will be the
practice here. The successful launch Of
the first caisson hero IL an era in the his.
tory Of our great railway bridge which tive
and half years hence will span the Mis-
sssippi River, the nnt bridge 10 be built
over the great river South Of the Ohio
River.

They dragged Toney to telegraph
pole and tied and whipped him unmer-
cifully with hickory switches.
Blood was spattered about the tGle,-
graph pole, and the mans body was lac
Grated in a horrible manner His recov-
cry is doubtful. He is n prominent citi-
zen OF that county and is n man OF
considerable means. He has wife and
family. The charges against Toncy were
drunkenness and abuse OF his family.
Jackson Goodman, who also lives near
English, was notified to change his man
ner OF doing business by keeping sober.
James Pro, editor OF the English NsrS,
was notified to publish that the White
Caps would attend the election next
November, and all persons detected in
buying or selling votes or acting in any
way dishonorable will be dealt with ac-
cordingly.
The people of Crawford county are
much excited, and an attempt will be
made to organize large party OF citizens
to capture the outlaws. An attempt
will also be made to get Governor Gray
to send the militia to the county, so the
citizens can have more protection. No
one can tell who is to be logged next,

WASHINGTON, May 3.-Senator Voor-

remain several days and recover from
the drubbing given him by Senator In

much ashamed OF his conduct on the
floor of the Senate during the contro.

says that the Senator was "beslde him.
