Three engineers have been selected one by
the president Of the Brooklyn Bridge. the
others by the Mayors Of the two cities, to do
terminc whether IL is feasible 10 run the trains
of the elevated railroads IN Brooklyn directly
TO this city, and also whether II Is wise ana
practicable to operate the Brooklyn trolley cars
across the Bridge. We trust that this viii lead
10 the early and final settlement OF this vcxcd
question To tho satisfaction Of everybody on
the other side Of the river who wishes TO reach
this city in tho easiest and quickest way. The
idea Of this Board Of Experts originated with
Mayor Wurstcr. On II have been placed three
men Of excellent rcputc. who should have little
difficulty i'm deciding whether there are any en-
gineering or other obstacles in the way Of
carrying out q plan that Is attractive and de-
slrabe on It's face. As RESPECTS the running
of elevated trains alternately with the regular
Bridge trains that seems less an engineering
problem than n practical question Of railroad
operation: and the running of trolley cars on
the rOadways is TO be considered I'm connection
with the other uses to which the rOadways
are put and the degree of obstruction which
they may occasion to the regular traffic
This Is not the first Board Of Experts TO bc
appointed in relation to traffic problems on the
Bridge. There have been two before. the first
appointed nearly ten years ago and the second
three or four years later. to determine the best
means of cnlarging the capacity Of the Bridge
railroad system. Their reports were diamet-
rically opposite; indeed 1t is generally believed
that the second Board was appointed because
the first did not take the same view as the
Bridge authorities while the second, having a
straight tip as TO what was wanted. pro-
nounced In favor Of the plan Of operating
trains which Is now In process OF being car
ried out. Let us hope that there will be no need
Of a second Board In this case for a like reason.

The progress Of the campaign has been such
as to render undecared changes of purpose un-
usually numerOus. AT the outset thousands
were swept into silver clubs or Democratic clubs
or Bryan clubs. who afterward learned the fal-
lacy Of silver arguments. To withdraw openly
from such an organization. as multltudes have
done. involves more trouble and risk than to
cast silent vote against il. Thousands more.
after Joining such organizations. have remained
earnest freesilver men. but have been resist
lessly impelled against Bryan by the disloyal
appeals he has been making to sectional ana
class prejudices, and by the naked hostility TO
law and order which has brought tho Anarchist
parts of his platform to the front. Thousands
are known throughout the West who are still
earnest for free coinage. but would count it
treason against the country and the flag to vote
for Bryan. Where thousands are known there
are others not known. The result OF all
these changes and conditions Is that stronger
vote for Mckinley is probable especially Mt the
West and i'm the cities than campaign work
crs have been able to detect. Hence 1t Is that
the most experienced and careful campaigncrs
and managers. while expressing strong c0nfi

speak of them as the lowest they think probable
and add that they cannot tell how much their
estimates may bc exceeded. The trend of events
everywhere indicates that the known majority
for Mckinley will bc supplemented by silent
vote of unknown magnitude.
