Who is It that is so much interested
to force stone bridge on the people Of
WheelingP And why is anybody SC
interested that the people are ap'
preached with the threat that unless
they take a stone bridge they shall have
no bridge2
There are two sufficient reasons why
tho people should not, and in the In
rELMoENcER's judgment will not, ap
prove the loan for stone bridge; first
because for the purpose a steel bridge IL
better than stone bridge; and, second
because the city cannot afford to spend
$4,000 or $4,000 at this timeior bridge
at Main street.
A substantial and slightly structure
will be built at Main street, but it will

their votes order the building Of stont

periodically or occasionally inspected by
engineers, but find no evidence that NJ
was ever inspected and approved, even
once, by any engineer commissioned for
that purpose who by any stretch OF char
ity would be regarded as an expert, A
few inspections by local or Junior en-.
gineers have from time to time been
made, some approving, but none Of
either kind came from sources which
would command much weight In the
profession. The report that certain Penn
sylvania railroad engineers regularly in
spected the dam is denied by number
Of officers who should know, and is I'M
questionably without foundation, The
dam was a contractors dam, Engineers
had nothing to do either with It's con-
struction or It's maintenance,
To raise the whole area Of the lake ten
inches per hour, which Is the reported
rate before the flood, required an &C.
cumulation OF only 4,023 feet per second,
and that much more spillway capacity
would have saved the break, Two feet
more height Of crest would have given II,
The sag In the crest was therefore the
immediate destroying agency.
No engineer worthy Of the name could
have failed to detect "tle sag in the
crest, /" and limo engineer was conyesapt
with the condition Of the dam, SO much
the worse for the men who kept 1t iol

1t seemed impossible that the Engl

have been guilty OF negligence in build

dispatch shows that what is left OF the
dam is well bullt-their part OF the

which the dam was left, or to which Il
had settled during nearly fifty years, thu
