at s 80 tonight. So far as known NJ
one was injured. This will be an ad

and displaced it.
The history of the Louisville ant
Jacksonville Bridge Co., is series 9
disasters, financial and otherwise. L
was originally projected in 1879 AM
failure overlook it in it's very incipiency
In 1888 it was revived under ne1
charter and ground was broken in Octo
Der 1890. E| -.
Two caisson accidents took plac
place during the building of the piers
The first was caused by the cupldlty c
a sub-contractor who engaged himsel
as an expert when he was without eS
perience. Air escaped from the caisso
and water rushed in, drowning fourtee
; men. The second caisson accident re
suited from the foolhardiness OF tn
foreman in the management OF tn
structure and caused the death OF seve
men. Today's was the third big az
cident in the chain. Several mlne
ones occurred between times. s
The enterprise was overtaken by yer
serious financial disaster early in Il
career as aresult of the Barring failu1
in 1890 which by reason of its depres
ing effect in money centers preVente
the floating of 81 100000 bonds, arralnlgg
ment for which had all but been col
2 summated. The reverse was a bio
] from which the enterprise never r
a covered in the hands of the originator
and promoters.
Jacob E. Kreiger, the leading spirl

this city in furthering the product al
finally sank himself into an untime
:, grave under the load of ills resultil
from multiplied disasters caused by tt
bridge. The enterprise laugEished 81
at one time 1t looked liked those WI
had projected it would reap nothing b
loss. However, in March last they su
ceeded in disposing of the property
81 a syndicate under terms considered We
advantageous. At
10 1t is estimated by engineers of t
l. Phoenix Bridge company that the .le
D. will be at least $100. 900.
