Agitation Against Present Style
[By Telegraph to Tho Tribune. I

Pittsburg, Aug. 9.-The Baltimore & Ohio Rail-
road Company informed the United States Steel
Corporation to-day that they expect the COM
pany to reserve space their books for their
usual quota of steel rails amounting about sew
enty-fve thousand tons. The action of the
company came surprise. neither the rail-
road nor the steel corporation knows what STYLE
OF rail the railroads will require for the coming
year on account of the agitation against the pres
ent style and quality of rail. which is blamed for
many railroad accidents
The b. & o. leaves the quality and weight to be
decided upon after the meeting of the joint COM
mittee from the United States Steel Corporation and
the American Railway Association to be held In

CAUSE is NOT KNOWN
Nothing is known of the cause of the disaster
There was nothing of an untoward nature re-
uorted that could give the slightest indication
during the last few days that the huge structure
was in a dangerous condition. 1t was bullt on
such immense lines that # did not seem possi-
hle that il could break down Whether the ac-
cidert was caused by defect in the materials
or by an error in the calculations of the engln-
GERS is matter of conjecture The one certain
fact is that where this afternoon there was al
most the half OF a bridge that was TO have been
one of the engineering wonders Of the world.

fantastically twisted iron and steel wreckage

Company. had a narrow escape. With party
Of friends from Montreal he had driven out to
show them the progress of the work They had
scarcely driven Of the bridge and reached the
road before the crash came and before they
could return to the edge of the river the whole
structure in the river.
Among the employees who met death were a
number Of skilled mechanics brought here by
the Phoenix company from Pennsylvania, as
well as q number from this district Most Of

vellous escape. a track had been laid the

getting the steel into position. The engine
started out for the end Of the bridge with load
Of steel. and il approached the end the en-
gineer felt his engine lurch- He at once shut off
steam. but the engine continued to move A
moment later the collapse came.
The engineer fell with his engine but is
able TO say how he escaped. He picked up
by a boat and was unconscious when brought
ashore. When he recovered the engineer could
tell little beyond the fact that he felt the bridge
go and knew he was falling The other Of
his crew were lost
Several Of the officials of the Phoenix Bridge
Company lost their lives. Among them are B.
A Yansel1, general foreman; Chief Engineer
Burke, who had walked out the bridge just

poration might refuse TO obey an order of the
commission.
II was believed by many lawyers last night that
the corporations would refuse 10 obey the orders
thus forcing court test OF the constitutionalitv
of the public service bill The orders that were
issued to-day involve the expenditure of so much
money and such serious changes in operation q"
said one. that If the common carrier corporation
have any idea all of testing constutionaIity
of the law itself they will make the test on these
orders-that is by refusing to obey them"
This seemed to be the general opinion among the
lawyers. They pointed out in support Of it that
while Corporation Counsel Ellison did not declare
the bill unconstitutional he not declare IL con-
sttutional but expressed doubts as to the consti-
tutionality OF some of its provisions. saying how
ever. that until declared otherwise by the courts
it should be considered constitutional by the city
authorities.
The commissioners not worrying over the pos
sible refusal of the corporations obey orders
and the subsequent of the act They feel sure
that If such a js made the courts will de-
clare the bill constitutional and feel douby conf
dent of this result because the bill was gone over
carefully and drawn in part, by Governor Hughes.
The first order is:
II is hereby ordered that hearing be had on the
18th day of September. 1851. 2 o'clock in the
afternoon, and at any time times to which the

LOST MILLION BY FRAUD
Chicago Will Drive Personal Injury
 Fakirs from City

CHICAGO. October Professional personal injury fakirs, colonies of whom have taken more than Sl,000,000 fraud ulently from the city in four years, are to be driven from Chicago, and, if possible, to the peuitentiary, by a triple alliance, in which the city administra- tion is the principal factor.
 Chicago practically has completed an arrangement with the traction com panies and the steam railroads and forty corpOrations-all victims of the per sonal injury fakirs-have been invited to assist in the establishment of a clearing house for records of profes- sional crooks of this character.
 It was discovered that whole families, using various names, were suing the city on fake charges. Besides this, it was learned that the professional in valids,'' assisted by lawyers of like stripe, are living in colonies. Investi- gation of some of these cases disclosed that disinterested witness e6uld not be found, because in an entire neigh borhOod there was not single adult who did not have a suit against the city.
