st. Louis. Dec l.-President Joseph
Ramsey. Jr., of the Wabash still insists
that the reports giving the number ot
dead and injured in the wreck near Sen
eca, Mich, are exaggerated. He states
that Superintendent Burns places the
number of dead at 81 and the several III
jured at r. He says that many of those
reported wounded are only bruised and
scratched. and that most of these were
yesterday on their way home.
\ message from Superintendent Burns
states that eight bodies had been taken
out of the wreck and identified, and that
there were charred fragments of bodies
representing by undertaker's estimate, Il
or Is adults and one infant. This report
also stated that Fireman Doud was still
missing.

of these districts to supervise and attend
to the erection and repair of bridges,

to the erection and repair of bridges,
etc.
Supervisor Lindsay has, we believe,
the supervision of the district IN which
the Boulting bridge is located, and pos
sibly he may be able to furmsi, "Sub
scriber" the information asked for.
1t is now in order for the board to
explain why the bridge book" is not
kept. The columns of the Democrat
are at its service for such explanation.
If, as the board claims, the cost of
building the bridges under consider
alton are less under the present system,
than under the lowest bidder system,
the records in the Auditors office should
contain the data to show it. and
II the claim made is true, it seems
strange that the board does not have
the cost ofeach bridge built, and repairs
made thereon, entered in the bridge
book as required by law.
Manchester Democrat. [volume] (Manchester, Iowa) 1875-1930, 1901-05-01
About County Bridges.

A Bremen township subscriber to the
Democrat asks for information as to
the cost of building the Boulting bridge,
built scross Bear Greek about two years
ago.
The Democrat is always glad to
have its readers apply to it for infor-
nation on matters of public interest.
In this case We are sorry to say that VIZ
cannot give satisfactory answer to the
inquiry.
The Code of Iowa, Section 442, sub.
division 8, requires the Board OF Super
visors to keep;
"a book. to be known as the "bridge
book" where record of bridges shall
be kept III numerical order IN each coll
gressi0nal township, commencing in
section one, and numbering each bridge;
give location in fractional parts of
sections; name the kind of material
used for substructure and superstruc-
tuFe; give length and cost OF bridge,
and, when repaired to keep record of
repairs and charge it to the bridge; and
warrants drawn IN payment for cree.
ton or repairs of bridges shall indicate
the number of the bridge for which 1t
is used In payment"
Had this book been kept, we could
have readily, by referring to it, have
obtained tho information asked for.
In 1897 Auditor Stetson procured a
blank book In compliance with the
statute above quoted, but it has never
been used, not single entry has been
made in 1t, and the auditor informs us
that he is not able to give US the cost of
said bridge, there being no record in his
office which shows its cost.
1t was the custom of. the board for
many years to advertise for bids for
the construction Of all bridges built in
the county, but that custom, as 10
wooden bridges, was abandoned sever.
al years ago. Now the contracts for
wooden bridges are all let to one man
d. H. Young was for several years the
county bridge builder, he was succeed
ed by b. A.. Baker, who In turn wat
succeeeed by Gus Barnd who now
holds that position. The board, SO, the
Auditor informs US, claims that thes.
bridges cost the county less under thu
the present practice, than they die
when they were let to the lowest bid
der. Now the usual cost, we are in
formed, is about S. 90 per lineal foot
Under the former system it is said tn,
cost varied, the bidders frequently form
ing combines and making the cost mucl
greater than under the present system
! Why the Board of Supervisors do no
comply with the law In having tn
bridge book kept we do not know
That 1t is not kept is through no faul
of Auditor Stetson. He cannot max
entries therein except upon Information
from the board, or its members actin
as committee on bridges, and no sue
information has been furnished hiul.
4 We understand that the board hi
divided the county into three district
for road and bridge purposes, and
