WHERLISa, w. Va, Jan, %, $50,
DEAR sR;-In response to your 70
quest have made an examination o.
the condition Of the Seventeenth street
bridge. In 1889, ] think, when the sub
ject Of replacing the present cast iron
bridge with q new wrought iron bridge
was mooted In Council, l made a careful
examination Of the piers and super
structure. AT that time gave 1t as my
opinion that the supeBtruCture was un'
safe for the heavy traffic to which II was
subjected, The piers, which are built
on q timber foundation bedded in gravel,
were then In much better condition
than at present, the foundations being
unimpalred. On my last examination ]
found the north end Of the east pier Ia
have settled considerably, causing quite
serious openings in the joints Of the
masonry and the breaking OF o number
OF stones In various courses, The south
end Of the west pier also shows signs OIL
settlement, though not in so marked a
degree as the east pier, II In good con
dition should not consider the present
piers thick enough for such a super
structure Us should span the creek al
this point In their present state / con-
slider them unsafe for the superstructure
condemned In 1882,
Respectfully yours,
+. L. HoGE,

ANOTHER EXPERT OPINION.

ANolhhh hAEAhh STANAONs
WHEELING, w. Va, Jan. 1S.
The Reymaaa BNuln0 Co., RheaiRg, ", Ha.;
DEAR sIa:-In response to your re.
quest TO examine the Seventeenth street
bridge, ! went there this morning.
Some time age while holding the posi-
ton OF City Surveyor, l warned the city
authorities that the continual use OF the
bridge, In It's present shape, involved
considerable risk To the safety OF those
using 1t, Without going into details,
would say that from the beginning the
superstructure was too light for the very
heavy traffic 1t Is now required to carry,
To the natural wear and tear OF its
twenty years. life may be added the un.
due strains which may be developed by
the settling Of the masonry Of the piers,
which are showing unmistakable signs
OF failure-being badly cracked and
having many stones in their construct
ion entirely unfit for any such use, and
which are rapidly disintegrating. Be.
sides this quite q number are laid on
edge and arc splitting and crumbling.
A recurrence OF the severe floods on
Wheeling creek might at any time wipe
these piers out. The city has been re.
peatedly advised Of the condition OF both
substructure and superstructure OF this
bridge, and In case OF your suffering in
any way by It's failure, not only the lia-
bility but the absolute culpability Of the
city could, In my opinion, be readily es-
tablished. Respectfully yours,
B, WALKER PETERSON, O. Z.

A special meeting of Council shield
last night and was attended by all the
members except two-Mr, Wilson, ofthe
First Branch, and Mr., Kepney, Of the
Second, both First ward representatives,
The attendance Of spectators was again
large and motley, They packed the gal.
lery and so filled the space outside the
lobby rail that 1t was difficult to reach
tho corridor when breath Of fresh all
was wanted.
The special purpose Of the meeting
was to FIJI with relatives and friends the
several city offices which the ordinances
provide shall be filed by Council, Al
the caucus held In the rooms OF the
Young Mems Democratic club Monday
night, which lasted till 4 o'clock yester'
day morning, the cumbersome Demo
cratic majority, which Is to dominate
city affairs for the next two years, made
up a slate that has many striking
pecullarities that have already occa'
stoned considerable comment. Not the
least Of these peculiarities Is the provis'
ion made for the relatives OF several o.
the members, In view Of the. assumed
righteous howl OF indignation raised by
the Democrats over alleged like action
by the Republicans two years ago, all
this Is laughably inconsistent. The eau
Gus slate contained the names OF some
who were very, very objectionable t.
some OF the best members on the Demo,
cratic side OF Council. They would
much rather have taken horrible dose
OF physiC than to have voted for those
very Objectionable persons, The pro
Ceedingsi in caucus attending the placing
OF their names on the slate are reported
on pretty good authority to have closely
Appropriated q riot,
Notwithstanding the wry faces that
were made, the slate went through.
The result does not give the lively
and unanimous satisfaction in the ranks
OF the Democracy that Is desirable fol
future party harmony and success,
1t was shortly after 0 o'clock when
the two branches disposed Of the miscel,
laneous business on the desks and got
together in joint session. The big lobby
shifted itself from one foot to the othGi
and frightened up, apparently, for q
| moment, and then settled down into the
state OF apathy in which 1t had existed
for the previous hour and half. There
was nothing especially entertaining In
last nights proceedings, but the lobby
seemed to find satisfaction in studying
the majority 1t had created,
