BROOKLYN BRIDGE NEGLECT.
The Engineering Record on the Condi-
 tion of the Structure.

tiOn of the Structure.
 The Engineering Record. in the issue which appeared today. discusses at length the report recently made on the New York and Brooklyn bridge. The article concludes:
 'The gravest aspect of the case how ever. is not so much the condition Of the bridge th= gross lack of eff cient inspection and maintenance. which seems to be without a mitigatins feature. Apparently there has heen complete ignorance of existing condi- tions in the structure from the pla al,s of the highway floor to the cables and the towers. The saddles at the tops of the towers and the suspender trun- nions were both found stuck fast bv dirt ard rust. flexible members were mutually rubbing away their sectional areas. embellishments were crudely made. welds in steel rods were em- ployed and dangerous overstresses were not recognized.
 The bridge is certainly able to ca rrv the loads now coming upon it. if well maintained. although by no means So strong as the officials in charge have asserted. The engineers making the investigation particularly disclaim any minute thoroughness in the analysis of the stresses in the bridge. The careful determination of it's actual strength re- quires accurate mea suremeats of all parts of the structure the official data being evidently of trifling value. and a mathematical analysis Of a searching nature. This tnoroughness was impos- sibie. owing to lack of time. A criti- cism of few of the papers appended to the report. if made just now. might seem to detract from the grave revela- tions referred to above. It has there fore seemed best to reserve certain of the appendices and the criticisms on them for later number"

New York, July 12.--There was scene
of great excitement in both the wheat and
corn markets at New York today, the trade
asgregatlng one OF the largest days totals
IL a year or more, especially as to corn.
Prices Jumped rs during the day, making
Csc advance for the week. Orders poured
Into the market so fast that brokers could
scarcely execute them at tho prices desired
and the usually small crowd around the
cora ring was increased to such an extent
that at times it almost rlvalled that in
the wheat pit.
The farmers have taken the bull side
into their hands and. In the face OF heavy

ers are feeding their stock with wheat
and unless ralns come very soon only half

one OF the largest yields recorded. Where
ever the present bull movement will end
depends a great deal upon weather con.
ditions In the corn States.
Wheat also took sn extraordinary jump

entirely fraepdless. at once Ieaped intoi

Prices at New York closed 2lza2ss cents
higher than che previous Right, aud practi.

caught on this bulge in wheat and some
OF them lost about all the money thAy

After weeks and months wheat has been
perslslently hammered about from pillar
