PLANKS, NOT ASPHALT
FOR THE TAR BRIDGE

In the past year or more when Olney-
Vile people wished something to grumble
about, they always had IL on the "Tar
bridge" so-called. for il was always out
of repair within a month or so OF receiy-
ing new coating OF asphalt. but now
Commissioner OF Public Works Walter r.
Sade will take this chance from them.
Tar bridge" will have a planked sur
face very soon.
Where the asphalt top has worn off
now planks will be put down and the
good portion will he allowed 10 remain
as II Is. as long as ii Is good. When
IL ceases TO be in that class the planking
will be carried the whole length and the
surface will be one that will last about
year at a time. il is thought.-
THE asphaiting OF this wooden bridge
was an experiment OF the late Commits
sioner Smiths, which the engineers de-
partment neither recommended nor de-
clared against" said Mr.. Slade today.
1T can hardly be called successful
though, for the new asphalt tops seldom
lasted six months and very often would
break out in spots after only a couple
Of months. The vibration OF n wooden
structure like this is too much for the
asphalt pavement. which cracks and
comes out in chunks. 1t is very expensive
fixing II every few months. and so now
we will put planking on as it was be-
fore.
Some Of the other bridges which are
asphalted nave coating OF block pave
ments first which, cementeu with a tarry.
pitchy substance. give a much firmer
basis for asphalt and are less susceptible
to vibration"

There was tremendousls.- heavy selling
from such out of town points as Phila-
delphia. Pittsburg, Chicago and Boston.
The two cities first named unloaded enor-
nous quantities OF steel stocks. The de-
cline was accelerated by the heavy short
selling on cliques and by room traders
generally. Stop loss orders were un-
covered in all the active stocks and as
usual on an occasion OF this sort.
Many weakly margined accounts were
sold out at great sacrifice. a canvass
among the brokers in the fnapcial dis
trict elected no real reason for todays
sharp decline, although It has been the
opinion in banking circles for some time
that prices were beyond reason.
The bank statement, which on ordinary
conditions would have been favorably re-
ceived, had little or no effect today.
WORKING OVERTIME.
Trading was so heavy and excited thai
the ticker was Is minutes behind the regu-
lar time in reporting closing quotations.
At the offices OF the numerous broker
age houses they notified their clerical
force that their services would be in de-
mand until late this evening. and many
clerks were ordered 10 report for duty
tomorrow. Between this and Monday
thousands OF Wall street spectators will
receive notices from their brokers de-
mandiug an increase in margins.
