IT has at last leaked out that the
Brooklyn bridge was defective and
an investigation Will be started to
find who is at fault. The bridge
coat so, 100000 and was supposed
to have been built strong enough
to last until there would be no use
tor it. The break, which v as the
result Of twelve Of the suspension
rods giving way. appears now to
be very serious, aud of such ma.
tur. that the great structure may
be crippled for long time. The
engineers say the excessive heat
caused the parting Of the suspen
sion rods, but the public is loath
10 believe them and an investis a.
ton will be started by the District
Attorney to tina out where the
blame lies. 1t is said that the
structure should have a coat Of
paint at least every two years, but
i has been four years since it was
painted. The rods, when examined
looked as it they had rusted away.
Now Tammany Hall is to blame for
the neglect OF the bridge. Travel
Of every kind has been stopped on
the north roadway of the bridge
and the work of repairing the brok.
IN cable band and big suspension
rods has begun. Here's another
case OF too much politics, which
will cost the tax payers of New
York and Brooklyn thousands Of
dollars to repair.
THE Board Of Education has
added several thousand dollars 10
its salary list this year. In tact,
the salary list Of that body has
been increasing every year. until
it has reached such figure tina
economy has become the watch
word. Such matters seem to be
nobody's business, and the annual
appropriation is paid over to that
body by the city, year after year,
to be spent as the members OF the
Board of Education determine. The
Board has considerable trouble to
get bill for its relief through the
last Legislature, and it will be
harder than ever 10 get another
one through at the next session.
The rules made by the Board that
teacher shall undergo ply sical
examination and then teach two
years in the training school tor the
munifcent sum OF $500 for the two
years, is enough to keep competent
graduates from taking up teaching.
