NEGRO BUSINESS
MEN IN SESSION

Louisville, KY, Aug. 1S.-The
tenth annual meeting of the National
Negro Business League began in this
city today and will continue until
Saturday. The meeting is attended
by more than 900 delegates from
twenty-five states. The opening ses-
sion was held in the Chestnut street
church and was devoted to routine
business. The session tomorrow
night, at which President Booker
Washington will deliver his annual
address and at which Hon. Henry
Watterson is also expected to speak,
will be held in Macauley's theatre.
The program for the three days.
session Is one of more than ordinary
interest. On the list of speakers are
negro bankers, cotton growers, town
builders, farmers and gardeners, real
estate dealers, contractors, lawyers,
editors, druggists and merchants,
who will tell the story of how they
got their start and of the struggles
that brought ultimate success.
The league was organized in Bos.
ton nine years ago, with Booker T.
washington as it's president. TIE
object of the organization is to In.
form the world of the grogress the
colored race is making In business
and to stimulate local business en-.
terprises and to encourage the or.
ganization of local business men for
the purpose of furthering commercial
growth. There are now about 500
local leagues which are doing the
work of the national league in differ
ent parts of the country.

TELLS WHY It RE-
JECTS BRIDGE
HIGHWAY COMMISSIONS REPORT
is THE SAME OLD ROT ABOUT
THE PIERS BEING DEFECTIVE
CONCRETE CRACKED.

Olympia, Aug. 1S.-The report of
the state highway commission reject
ing the Wenatchee bridge was made
public tonight. The commission re-
ports that the bridge would be of
great value to the state, and were it
not for the defective piers the pur-
chase of the structure could be con-
summated The report indicates that
the original cost of the bridge was
$19S,524.96, from which is deducted
the subscriptions of the citizens of
Wenatchee amounting to $16,317.41,
leaving a balance to be paid by the
state of $182,207.55.
The board visited the bridge June
10, in company with their appointed
engineer, j. w. Bowerman of Seattle,
and at that time made a superficial
examination of the structure. 1t was
found that the bridge, with the ex-
ception of the floor system, was in
Soou SouuiliOu. Inc IlooI 10 uoI CQudi
to the states specifications and is
badly worn in many places. The
board believes that it will be neces
sary to renew the floor within a few
months. 1t was also found that the
leakage from the water pipes of the
Wenatchee Canal company drips up
on the lower chords of the bridge,
thereby causing corrosion of the
metal, which not only increases the
cost of maintenance, but will shorten
the life of the bridge.
The board again visited the bridge
on July %, 20, 80 and 81, when a
careful examination of the piers was
made. 1t was found that all of the
piers, except the east shore pier, on
the Douglas county side of the river,
had been cracked by the use of dyna-
mite when holes were drilled to re-
ceive the anchor bolts. The cracks
extend generally in a vertical direc-
ton from six to twenty feet, but in
some cases they run crosswise of the
piers. AS there are three double lines
of steel bars extending laterally and
longitudinally through these piers
for reinforcement, the board believes
that there is no danger Of the piers
collapsing or crushing.
Because of this defect, which may
reduce the value of the bridge, the
board does not feel justified in COM
pleting the purchase of the structure.
