wholesale Poisoning Attempted.

Chattanooga, Nov. 21.-Six families,
numbering in all over 25 people, in one
neighborhood of this city are suffering
from the effects Of arsenical poisoning,
and several persons will probably die.
1t appears that wholesale attempt to
kill these families is due TO neighbor-
hood quarrel which broke out about a
week ago. All the parties are white and
are in good circumstances. A physician
who examined the water from well III
the neighborhood reports that he found
il strongly impregnated with arsenic.
Several arrests are expected.

are in Il state Of decay that makes them
Of doubtful utility and safety. The
newest Of these structures, Washington
street bridge, now that the question of
utilizing ii for street ear traffic has come
to be discussed is OF doubtful design and
construction. Third street bridge is
chronically diseased and iniilm al
though ii is the second one at that point
in a comparatively few years.
These conclusions, which we think the
facts bear US out in suggests that
bridge building hereabouts, and for city
traffic, has been failure. The proofs
OF these failures point concluSiyelS TO
the remedy-the building Of bigger and
stronger bridges designed not for the
demand of the hour u day, but with an
idea Of future necessities. III this view
/ of the matter we return to tile question
IL new bridge over the Glndstlana 1T
Market street. This bridge is a cantinu-
lance Of Market street Oven, the river.
Ii ought to lie as wide rs the street and
give the same accommodations to side
walk and mid street traffic rs does any
othel portion Of Market street. In view
oi the Occupation Of the south shore q
the Christinna hy wharves, warehouses
and manufactures. the new bridge
should be big enough, and strong enough
to accommodate ii greater volume and
consequently greater weight Of traffic
The design of course should be i'll keep
