Disaster.

Investigating Louisville Bridge
Disaster.
LOUISVILLE an.4.-The inquest over
the victims of the bridge disaster, on
Dec. 10, was begun by Coroner Nc
Cullough this morning. The coroner
delivered instructions to the jury,
charging them to fully investigate, and,
if any blame attaches to any one,
to fix it where it belongs. The
case is being carefully watched
by attorneys for the Phoenix Bridge
company, and the relatives of the dead
men who are suing for damages. Moth
ing of Importance was brought out at
today'S hearing. Several civil engineers
were present, but none of them were
employed by the bridge company. Mr..
Morris, civil engineer. stated that it
was his understanding that the accident
had been caused by the concentration
of the entire weight of the traveller
upon one bent" G. L. CornWelI, au-
other engineer. said from what ne
had seen he Considered the
false work good and perhaps
a tritie better than work of that kind
generally is. He had not examined it
sufficiently, however, to render expert
opinion upon its condition. He said he
thought the span which caused the
trouble was the largest truss span
on the continent. Coroner MeCul-
Tough stated this afternoon that
although he had made a diligent effort
to serve subp9naS on the superintentl-
ent OF the bridge company, he had been
unable 10 locate any Of them. The, in
