a Boston Civil Engineer Says the Material in the nridge Was Imperfect. Among the earliest arrivals of city people at the scene of the accident were a number of gentlemen who are highly thought of in the scientific world and some who are well known among the leading civil engineers of Boston. The nearness of the accident to Boston. and its easy accessibility, drew these gentlemen to the spot in otder to observe the peculiarities of the bridge and to examine It from a scientific point of view. The state of things they found caused considerable astonishment among them.

and there was many things in the construction of the structure which at first seemed somewhat odd. but an explanation of the history of the bridge removed some of the adverse criticism. but it did notto judge from some of the remarks that were heardadd much to the reputation of the engineers who constructed it. The facts in regard to the history of the Bussey bridge, better known as the "Tin bridgd," appeae to he about as follows: The original wooden bridge was built a long time ago, and was made wide enough for a double track, but there never has been but one noon it Very naturally the side on which the track in use was placed gave out first. When it was found that the truss on the northwest side required to be replaced the company took rt out and tett in an iron truss and left the other side wood as originally built.

This was the condition of the bridge for a number of yeats according to the statement made by a well-known Boston engineer. Thus, one end of the floor beams rested on wood and one mid on iron. After a while the company foetid that it would be necessary to remove the wooden truss. and it wag done. The iron truss on the northwest side was moved over on to the position vacated by the wooden truss, and its place was supplied with a new iron one, which was supposed to be stronger than the first iron one.

This new iron truss, tip to the moment of the accident, carried the greater part of the load, that passed over the bridge. This accounted in some degree for the reason of tha mechanical experts finding what was very 'odd to them, that one of these trusses was so different from the other, something of unusual occurrence. Among the gentlemen who examined the bridge was Professor Oeorge F. Swam, in. structor of civil engineering mad hydraulics at the Institute of Technology, who succeeded Professor Vote.

and who is also a specialist in bridge construction. Professor Swain was interviewed at his residence on Brookline street last night, and very courteously stated the result of his observations at the scene of the wreck. The bridge." said he. "was composed two iron trusses of different patterns, built at different times and by different builders. The floor beams were flung from the top cord of one of the trusses and appeared to rest on the ton of the other.

The north truss. the one from which the floor beams were hung, had cords built of three beams and three bent plates forming a close column, and connected by castings against which these columns abutied. The floor beams, which were of two 'I' beams, were hung from pins run through these castings and the hangers were inaccessible for accurate inspection. "It is a principle in bridge designing that there should not be any part of time bridge which cannot be examined so that the insvector can satisfy himself that it is in proper condition. On the Erie railroad their specifications for iron bridges require that the hangers for floor beams shall be easily accessible.

The same is true of other Important roads in the country. "In looking at one of these hangers. -where one door beam was hung at the end mint of time upper cord. I found that the bangers were defective and bad been largely rusted off. These hangers were made with a weld, and the weld seemed to be in some places imperfect.

and it seemed to me extremely probable that at this joint 'where the hangers were broken the original rupture might have occurred. The hangers were broken off. and in examining them you could see that one of them was entirely rusted off and the other partially so, the weld being moreover defective. I see by Tint EvEsixd Grams that it is stated that there were defects of a similar kind in other parts of the bridge." "Did you notice any other defects?" "There seems to be no doubt that the quality of the material was imperfect in some places. Several other portions of the wreck of the bridles showed evidence of faulty design in the trusses.

At the time these bridges were built cast iron was used to a conshierahle extent in connecting parts of bridges, but engineers have now entirely discarded that material in important structures. I should however, that I did not notice any in the bridge where this material had failed in this case. angle of skew of the bridge was very large. i The skew bridge is more difficult to design correctly than a straight one, but it is perfectly easy to make a skew tiridge perfectly strong. The fact that it is a skew is no reason for any defect, as I have sometimes heard it stated.

"What I noticed particularly were these Iwo hangers which held one floor beam at the upper end of the sloping end post. riles hangers were entirely inaccessible, and inspection could not determine het her they were in proper condition or not. The banging of the floor beims to the upper cord of a deck bridge is a fault in design And very easily avoided. "Do you know whether the Boston providence railroad had this bridge inspected lately?" "I do not know whether they have any inspector or not. but every railroad should be obliged by law to have their bridges inspected once a year by a competent expert.

The principle may be laid down that if a bridge is so constructed that it cannot be determinist whether or not it is in a safe conditionaside front the structural defects in the iron. which may of course exist without our being able to discover itshould be considered as nit-Safe." Would you say, professor, that if this bridge bad been examined by any competent expert within the past year these defeets would have been discovered and rem. edied atid the accident averted?" "I think the hangers in that bridge were so inaccessible that it would have been impossible to determine exactly their condition. They might have been unsafe witis.

At hoslindale we received a large fare as well as at thelntermediate stations. and i from here we staned for Forest Hills. As we approached Tin bridge there was no airpearauce whatever of danger.

One looks more naturally forward than tiehind. and at this juncture particularly the look may have been suggestive. however. as I cast IC glance at the 'train behind, I saw the lirst car swing inward and topple over as though aeout to fall.

and while I still look, amazed and bewildered, the second and the third cars tipped over in similar positions and all finally jumped the track. The engine kept to the rails, however. and I turned for a moment to sleek my engine. When I looked back, and the time consumed was a very brief minute, of the nine ears but three remained in sight, and toe cloud of dust which rose prophetic over the bridge told to a certainty the fate of the remainder. No.

Vita the concussion of the shock. or Of the cars leaving the track, the coupling pin attaching the engine to the first car snapped and we were free. With all steam on and with the throttle wide open we started for relief.

Forest Hills was the nearest station. and to this point we started. Our whistle was screaming the most torrifying of acres lies, seemingly conveying to the listeners the direfulness of the calamity which had befallen us, and nil the while the fireman was signalling with his hand to the people in the vicinity of the wreck. and endeavoring to thus explain the Casualty. Explanation was not needed.

IN bat could the inference possibly be. from a single eneine rushing madly along' the track shrieking, as though trying to tell in words the danger its freight had met? 'I here were no cars, not even a baggage ear. and where was once a bridge there still arcee a dense. horrible dust. which enveloped the surroundings and forbade all sight of The Disastrous Spot.

We kept on, and immediately the neighbors divined our signals and rushed to tee bridge. This was about 7.19 o'clock. the time we were due at this point. and the time consutned in making the trio from the bridge to the Dills was briefer than the time it takes in telling it. Still on we went.

We passed Switchman WilitamWordlev. "For God's sake." 1 cried. "shift the switches and let him go." and onward we rushed until at length we reached orest There Jim Prince was waiting for me. Jim goes out of Dedham about an hour ahead of me, and meets me ordinarily. between Jamaica Plain and the Hills.

'flits morning. however, being a trine late. he reached the Hills without meeting me. and as brietiv as possible I told him the circuit. stances of the disaster.

and begged aim to give the whist succor he could. Prince's train comprised but three cars, the majority of his passengers being labor-Mg men, sturdy, stout fellows. who would work nobly for the lives of the imprisoned ones. Jim at once put on steam and started up the branch track. Iii the meantime there were stores of workers at the spot to help us.
