The train, composed largely Of heavy
Pullmans. and drawn by two of the
biggest and fastest electric motors on
the N. Y, N. H. and H. road, passed
through Greenwich at sixty miles an
hour Just as It reached a brigde 100
feet west of the station here the rails

leaving the rails. ground and tore their
way across the bridge structure to the
shrieks and cries of the passengers,

stopped on their sides, five hundred
feet away.

l2-TON GIRDER
IS IN POSITION
Two and Half Hours Re-
quired to Lift 1t Into
Position


without a hitch OF a break. the big
twelve-ton steel girder that is to support
the roof OF the Security Trust and Safe
Deposit companys new building at
Sixth and Market streets was lifted into
position this morning.
The girder has rested on the floor OF
the addition to the bank for two weeks.
II Is feet long, OF double backed steel
1-beam construction and unwieldly to
handle. The removal OF the girder from
the street into the building was a task
requiring several hours. and many per
sons surmised that It would be even a
greater undertaking TO lift the long steel
beam into position more than forty feet
above the boor.
But II was not. 1t seemed like a
ohld's play, so well had Joseph jenkins,
who had the project in charge arranged
for the operation. Blocks and tackles were
rigged and the ropes were connected TO a
windlass. which gradually wound up the
ropes.
Just two and one-half hours were re-
duired 10 lift the twelve-ton mass and
place il in position to support the roof.
The girder extends from east 10 west, and
by means OF its use the roof OF the bank
will be supported in a manner that OBJ
viates the use OF uprights or posts OF
any kind to obstruct the floor space with
in the new buildiRg.
