ONE WAS KILLED AND ANOTHER
BADLY INJURED ON DRAWBR|DCE.
Mr.. NC CANN
TALKS BRIDGE.
Consulting Engineer Gives His
Testimony in Hearing in
New Brunswick.
Special to the Evening News.

\.
NEW BRUNSWICK, Sept. 25-
The Amboy bridge hearing in the
proceedings instituted by C. A.
Bloomfield, was resumed this morn
ing before Supreme Court Commits
sioner Van Cleef.
A. e. Sandford, of Sandford &
Harris, was to have been examined
on the question of his invoices for
lumber and piling, etc., for the
bridge, but they cover seven books,
and, at Mr.. Sandford's suggestion,
the examination will be made at his
Office at Hoboken Friday morning
Consulting Engineer McCann was
then called in behalf of the freehold
ers. He testified that no spruce pill
ing was used, and that the expert
who had testified for the other side
might easily have taken pine for
spruce, because OF the effects of
weather. He said the lumber was
first class.
He said that he never found the
depth of the mud and that it would
have been impossible to have reach
ed bottom with the piles, as the mud
goes so deep. He said that the mud
holds the piles in place and that that
is done often on large jobs, such as
the new North German Lloyd pier.
Mr.. Mccain testified further that
he had notified the freeholders that
ice-breakers were needed.
The bridge is serviceable, he said,
but there should be more room for
the ice to get through. There should
be, in his opinion, three all-steel
spans on the South Amboy side Of
the draw and one on the Perth Am
boy side. The bridge should really
have been of steel from shore to
shore, but that was Impossible with
s150,000, he testified. He said that
he had not trusted to his own iudg-
ment alone when he examined the
draw, but that he had the opinion
of Mr.. Hildreth, of Hildreth & Com
pany.
On cross-examination by Bloom
fields counsel, w. p. Voorhees,, Mr..
Mccain said that the piling could
not stand the hammer test" as re-
auired by the specifications, but that
that clause had been put into the
specifications so that each bidder
could find it out and that he had
naught to do with it.

his body hurled overheard where it
sank from sight. Miss Huniski, was
also thrown from the bridge, but
was not killed. Mr.. Anicker, who
saw the accident, rowed quickly to
the help of the injured woman. He
was joined by others and she was
lifted up to the bridge and placed
on the train and taken to South Am
boy. Her mother, who had escaped
injuries but had tainted, was also
placed on the train.
They were taken to the yardmas-
ters Office where a doctor was sum-

to the hospital but were taken to
the home in Hall avenue, where from
reports today, the girl is very low
and is not expected to recover, while
the mother is out OF her mind, the
result of the accident.
After the woman had been taken
to South Amboy, Il number of those
who had seen the accident hunted
for the body of Urban and finally
recovered it. The body was taken
to the undertaking establishment OF
J. ]. Scully, in South Amboy, where

In Memoriam.

Died, at her home near this city,
Monday, November goth, 1905, after
a protracted illness, Mrs. Louise
Burns Lyons, aged forty seven years.
In early young womanhood she
professed faith in Christ and lived a
faithful member of the Christian
church until called to join the church
triumphant In the skies. Lovely in
character and In person and in all the
attributes that make up the Christian
wife and mother and friend, her life
reflected that Of the Saviour whom
she followed consistently before the
world. Whenever there was sickness
or sorrow there was she ready by
tender words and loving hands to
minister and comfort; and many are
the relatives and friends who mourn
her loss and grieve for her departure
and deeply sYmpathize with the bus
baud and two daughters, who are
bereaved indeed. Yet they tweep
not as those who have no hope, " for
while she has forever passed from
out the home they are cOnsOled by
the thought that she has entered the
heavenly home where there shall be
no more pain neither any more sorrow
nor crying, where she shall be forever
with her Lord and forever glad in His
presence. Her loss to those dear ones
is irreparable; her place can never he
filed but the influence OF her devoted
life will ever remain and live; and we
pray that 1t may work in the lives OF
those whom her heart held dearest
until that time when they, too, are
each called to
"Where the golden city glitters
In its rainbow tints impearl'd,
And they join again their loved one
