CHATTANOOGA. Tenn. Sept 24.-At the
time OF the recent accident on the Lookout
Mountain railroad, Il was erroneously
sent to- the press that the accident n
which Senator Peffer and others were
slightly hurt was occasloned by a collision
between trains OF tie Lookout Mountain
pany's narrow gauge. The collision was
between two trains of what Is known as
the broad gauge. And the narrow gauge
had nothing To do With IL. The error grew
out OF the fact that the narrow gauge uses
the roadbed and one rail OF the track OF the
broad gauge. and the passengers thought
the collision was with the incline, which
II was not.

ONLY $500 IN DISPUTE.
City Controller and Bridge Company Have
q Little Misunderstanding,

There is little misunderstanding of
$500 between the city and the Edge
Moor Bridge company.
Last Saturday steel inspection
agency of New York city forwarded a
bill for the above amount to City Con-
troller Widmayer. The bill was for the
inspection at the mill of iron used by
the Edge Moor company In building the
Linden street bridge. A clause In the
bridge contract provides that all fees
for inspection shall be paid by the COM
pany, so the city controller on Monday
wrote the company asking whether
they desired the bill forwarded to them
or preferred to have the $500 deducted
from the amount due them.
Yesterday letter signed by Mr..
Morse, president of the company, was
received stating that the bill Is none
Of theirs and that the city will have

correspondence does not alter the city
