Transfer books wllj remain closed until after that date. OF HAKIHEH tractors of the city would have to stand the damage. I cannot say until the matter has-been thoroughly Investigated. How much of the work on the bridge has the city accepted? was asked. "None of the -work has been by the city, although part payment has been made on some of It, but there is the contractors' bond for the indemnity of the city, from which the contractor Is not released until the work Is accepted by the city.

According to the figures on file In the Finance Department, the cable contractors had received $936,000, or about seventy per, cent, of the amount of work done up io Oct. 22. The amohnt of the cable contract Is $1,398,000, and the contiactors are under a $400,000 bond for the proper performance of the work. It was the general Impression that If It ts established that the fire was due to negligence on the part of any of the employes of, the contractors, they will have to stand the damage. Thle wa not officially announced, because none of lue city officers has had sufficient time to look up the provisions of the contract bearing on the point.

At tha office of Ryan Parker, who have tha contract for the Manhattan anchorage, It was said that the fire had not damaged any of the granite work, and no losses from other parts of the an-'i chorage work had been reported. Mayor Low said this afternoon that he was very sorry to learn of the accident, but was unable to say what the damage was, because he had not yet received any report from the Bridge Commissioner. The last report of the work in progress on the bridge says that the wrapping of the cables with water, proof canvas had been completed for a' considerable distance from the Manhattan tower. It was calculated that this work would have been completed by the first of December. It will be necessary to do this -work all over again, which alone will mean a two months delay.

The caulking of the joints of the cable banas, which has closely followed the wrapping, will cause still' further hindrance. Cover plates had been -put on two of the cables for a considerable distance from the Manhattan tower. The contractors on the Manhattan approach were getting their plant In condition preparatory to using the anchorage, and the fire will delay this work Indefinitely. i Contracts, including Ten Year TSntfowngns.

pie a (Continued from First Page.) using Cornish's name is useless, because the man who had issued death warrant to Cornish might safely take his name, as dead men tell no tale. Mr. Osborne then went on to dispute ex-Gov. Black's computation of the sheet of the crescent rrested paper. To agree with Gov.

Btacka figure, you must assume, first, that the crest is on each leaf of a sheet, which 1 not and. secondly, that the paper was sold half a sheet at a time. This seems absurd. but you must assume that it you agree with ex-Gov. Black, that any one of the W.OUO persona could have written thet Coin tab letter.

Mr. Oe borne then referred to Kaoh, the letter box man, and mid that he did not ask the jury to consider the identification made by this witness. Remembering. said Mr. Osborne.

Moiineux'a private secretary told you he wrote to Koch for a magaxlne. Koch told you he sent a circular to Molineux about private letter boxes. Throw out the identification, Mr. Osborne' continued. Now I have shown you a man with a motive against Cornish Molineux- a man who had an account at Tiffany' Molineux: a man who was frequently tn Newark Molineux; a man who was a chemist Molineux; a man whose handwriting bears all the characteristic af the writing of the poison package wrapper Molineux.

and a man who knew that te.ter boxes could be hired at 16-t Mr. Osborne then dwelt st some length on the talk Molineux had with Hellos before the latter wrote to Steams A Co. about Harpster. and said: Does not that show hostility to Harpster? Mol neux had nothing against Harpster except his friendship for Cornish, and yet he tried to do him the greatest Injury tn bis power deprive him of his position when it would do him no earthly good. he would go to such an extreme against Harpster, what would he not do to Cornish? Havre I not shown you a man with a joint hostility to Cornish and Harpster Roland Molineux? Cornish could not have written the letter signed with his name to Steams and gave his address at a letter box, Cornish was an Intimate friend of Frederick Steam, ana the latter knew his address.

It is inconceivable that Cornish could have written to his friend and given a feigned address and made Inquiries about his own intimate friend In the Knickerbocker Athletic Club. It la only one man could have written that letter. Roland R. Molineux. Everything points to him.

The motive, the letter to the same effect written by Helles at his Instigation, the similarity tn handwriting, the joint hostility to Cornish and Harpster. Do not your minds Instinctively sutr-grot the iut of Molineux? If you find Molineux wrote that letter, you must find him guilty of this crime. The defense does not dispute our contention that the hand that wrote the letter wrote the prison package letter. In concluding his argument on that point by stating that in the four hours In which ex-Gov. Black spoke yesterday he never mentioned the Harpster letter, and declared his belief that the counsel for the defense recognised his Inability to explain the letter away.

Mr. Osborne likened Molineux to Macbeth. saying that he was haunted by the ktter wnich would indicate his hostility' to both Harpster and Cornish. In closing his speech he adopted Mr. Black's figure of the magnetic needle on board ship which always points to the pole, and declared that every point In the case indicated that Molineux was the guilts man.

and closed by stating to the jury that he ha i no personal hostility to Molineux. An adjournment was taken shortly after noon, when Mr. Osborne closed his address. until 1.15 o'clock. When court reconvened Justice Lambert commenced fcis charge to the Jury.

Cluctt, Peabody Co. (Continued from First Page.) coloring reflected from the splendid achievements proudly won by those who now enter upon Its occujwmy. No associated body of our citiarm felt more deeply and effectively the throbbing of patriotism and devotion to country when our government eras threatened by armed rebellion; its protest and aid was immediately forthcoming when, afterwards, an insidious attack was made upon oar financial integrity through an attempted debasement of oar currency: from no quarter has a more earnest and insistent demand been heard for the adjustment of international disputes by arbitration, and its espousal of the cause of business education among our people. "Commerce is born of enterprise, and enterprise In this busy, bustling age is born of struggle and competition. But the struggle and competition need not be to the death.

Alertness and keenness lu securing business opportunities does not by any means import unmindfUiness all else save ruthfulness and ravenous snatching. Mayor Low said in part: The history of the Chamber of Commerce of the BUte of New Tork is a part of the story of our State and Nation. Founded in Fraunce's Tavern in lcM. while New Tork was still a colony, the activities of the Chamber form an important chapter in the history cf the city of New Tork from that day to this. Although priroarilv a oommercUl body, the Influence of the Chamber has ben felt In almost every direction in which patriotism and public spirit could find a field for enterprise.

It was In the rooms of the Chamber that the first public discussion was held of the project to build the Erie Canal, a work whose Influence upon the prosperity of our Btate and city cannot be exaggerated: and. In the Chamber again, originated the plan tor municipal rapid transit that ts now being carried on in the city of New Tork. During the trying times of our Civil War the Chamber never flagged in Its efforts to support the Government; and. henever the city of New Tork has been confronted with exceptional penis, the members of the Chamber have been in the forefront of the battle for the re-demptlon of the civ- Whenever pestilence or disaster has overwhelmed arty portion of our own country, or whenever exceptional distress abroad has made appeal to the sympathies of our peotde. the Chamber of Commerce has taken the leal In sending relief to the suffering and afflicted.

It is natural that a body made up of commercial men should give Uninterrupted attention to the distinctly com-mercial and financial problems of the country. This the Chamber of Commerce has done from the beginning, with an intelligence as noteworthy as tie public spirit that has animated it; hut It will also be clear from what I have sM that the activities of the Chamber have rot been confined within these narrow bounds, but tnat they have broadened Cut. without effort, precisely as the Influences of commerce aie telt. in a thousand directions, as a force making for civilisation. From the outside the new budding Is a thing of beauty, so far as architecture goes.

The front of tb lower floor is of heavy square pillars, and above throe, reaching up to the top floor, are large fluted colonial pillars of massrie granite, and inside the main floor are broad stairs, after the style of the old French and English palaces, leading up to the main floor. Morris K. Jesup. president of the Chamber of Commerce, said, in part: It is my high privilege, as the ofllror of the Chamber of Oxnaeict of the State of New Tork. to extroid the cordial greetings of Us members to the President of the United States, to the Hon.

Grover Cleveland. ex-President of the United States, to the Mayor of our city, and to the other distinguished guests who have gathered here to-day from all parts of our common country snd from foreign lands to join in the congratulations of the Chamber upon its haa ing at length after many years of hope ard effort, the erection of this building, which is to be its permanent home, and which I trust you will all agree is worthy of the enlightened and beneficent object far which the Chamber as originally founded. "No ordinary occasion would bring together such an assemblage of distinguished men. representing the State, the Church, the Bench, and the learned professions. and all departments of business, which, in New Tork.

have made for them selves a record of unsurpassed excellence. Indeed, this is an extraordinary occasion. claims to distinction in other directions the city of New York may possess, it chief prominence in the eyea of the world is. and must ex-er be, due to Its trade and commerce. From its very foundation New York, differing from the other colonies, which were settled either for religious or political considerations, became the home of men of all nations, who sought to establish commercial relations with the new continent and to develop its resources for the general profit of mankind.

At the conclusion of ex-Presidenf Cleveland's address. President Jesup introduced the President of our Great Country. As President Roosevelt stepped to the fiont of the platform the great concourse o. business men roe as one person and cheered. "Mr.

President" he began. Then be bowed to ex-lTesident Cleveland and to the audience. As I am to speak to you this evening I shall now simply say a word of greeting to you and to your guests. I have been asked here as the Chief Executive of the Nation, and, so, I can speak, not merely on your behalf, but on behalf of our people as a whole, in greeting and thanking for their presence here those representatives of foreign countries who have done us the honor and pleasure of being present to-day. I greet the Ambassador whose approaching departure we so sincerely regret the Ambassador on hose advent we extended such hearty greeting and especially the representatives of those great friendly civilised rations with whom Intend to he knit even closer by ties cf commercial and social goodwill in tbs future And.

now, gentlemen, having greeted your guests on behalf of you. I greet you In tha name of the people, not merely because this body haa been able to show that the greatest commercial success can square with the Immutable and eternal laws of deecnt and right living and of fair dealing between man and man. (Cheers and applause). MAYOR LOW VETOES FIREWORKS ORDINANCE. Mayor Low's veto message concerning the fireworks ordinance was read at the meeting of the Board of AMennro this afternoon.

Alderman McCall attacked the Mayor's attitude regarding the issue of permits for the discharge of fireworks, saying ho showed a dis-imsttlon to deprive the Aldermen of their power. Alderman Little Tim Rulttvan followed McCall la the same strain.

He said in part: We have before us this morning rest-- ing in the calm repose of death the remains of Brooklyn's most active citisen and noblest son: a son whose unexpected and sudden death has cast a pall of gloom over this community at large and has brought real sorrow to many living carts. Felix Campbell was bom here. He passed his life of three score and more years years so full of energy and oble deeds. From earliest childhood fc manifested those traits of character that commanded success industry unremitting integrity, ideal, and to hts God and duty a fidelity unsurpassed. Those traits of character were Inate In Mr.

Campbell. He inherited the indoniin-able will, the strength of conviction and pluck of his rugged ancestors. He was primarily a religious man. Re started In and with God. wnd from Him he never separated.

He didn't preach this, but he practised it. To him to he industrious, honest and faithful were necessities. His purposes were grand and noble; to love his God with his whole soul and above everything else, and to love his neighbor as himseif. Hence you could find Mr. Campbell interested unostentatiously In every work of charity.

1. The intense heat will not Injure the saddles and they will need no repairing. The heat from the saddles, however, played havoc with the cables. That part of the cables Nos. 1 and 2 resting on the saddles will have to be entirely replaced.

The heat makes the wires brittle, and for 50 feet on each side of the tower the cables will have to be replaced by new wires, which will be spliced. The cables will not have to be made over, and the splicing and replacing sill not Injure them. It Is done on the Brooklyn and on all bridges, and even while the bridge are being used. It does uot weaken the cables. There Is not much probability that any more than 50 feet of the cables are Injured, and not all of the wires in that space are damaged.

Perhaps half the wires for fifty feet of No. 2 will have to be replaced. These wires will be put in one at a time and spliced or repaired with cuffs. Not nearly as many wires In the other cable will bo replaced. But It will cause a delay of at the very least four months to do the retailing.

I could not estlmaet nearly the actual time It will take. i I want to Bay that there Is no dafiger whatever, not the slightest, of the cables falling or of the tower 'being Injured. The cables can stand the weight on them now. Of course, with the wires damaged, they could not stand any very great additional weight, but they can stand their own weight and what la on them now. So far as the fire Injuring the tower Is concerned, the effect of a fire like that on the tower Is like hitting an anvil with a tackhammer.

ENGINEER SAYS LOSS Commissioner Lindenthal, Commissioner of Bridges; Engineer Martin, of Construction; Wilhelm Hildebrand, Chief Engineer for Roebling Construction Company; L. L. Buck, designing engineer for construction, have been engaged In investigating the amount of damage all morning and will be unable to finish the Investigation until late this night, wh'en they will send to Mayor Low a complete detail of cause and damage of bridge. A consulting engineer for the Roebling Construction Company, who refused to give hie name for obvious reasons and who had been working in the investigation all morning, volunteered the Information which, he says, Is complete. He said: The damage to the bridge la nothing to speak of, amounting to an estimated loss of two to three thousand dollars.

The chief loss is Incurred by the breaking of the foot-bridge. This bridge was built at a cost of nearly $1,000,000 to date. It also means the delaying of actual work while clearing away dead timber. This work will take about three weeks, because of the tediousness and danger which la offered in the undertaking. The saddles when the footwork broke gave way, falling toward the river, which, strangely enough, Is what was Intended should be done In the actual construction.

This will lesson the work quite materially. The main cables are not very much damaged. One is only slightly damaged and will need very little repair. Two more are damaged considerably but not beyond repair. Cable No.

4 was not touched. Work will be commenced as soon as possible to repair these cables. They will be cut and spliced Just exactly In the same manner as when they are first made, and they will he even stronger. The cause of the fire has been determined-sheer carelessness. Olio of the workman dropped an oil-soaked torch on aome "Smith's Compound (a composition used for preserving the cables, which Immediately ignited.

The workman was bewildered and lost his presence of mind, in consequence of which he ran away. Contray.to the report that four men were killed by the breaking of the foot bridge, I wish to state that none was killed and but one man Injured, which was caused by a piece of timber falling upon him. He was not seriously hurt. Network was commenced as yet, except making a passageway for the Commissioner and engineers. Work, however, will be commenced as soon as Investigation Is completed.

Bridge Commissioner Lindenthal left hie office about 10 oclock, and In company with Engineer O. 0. Nichols, Engineer Hlllebrand, and a representative of the John A. Roebllngs Sons Company, visited the Williamsburg bridge to view the wreck. The Commissioner was seen before he left bis office, but he could not give any approximate estimate of the extent the damage.

He said that he would an Immediate Investigation and report to Mayor Low this afternoon. 1 did not know anything about th fire until I read the newspapers 'thin morning, said the Commissioner, and you may Imagine that I was very much surprised. A thorough Investigation of the matter will bo made at once. I have not yet been cn the scene, and so cannot give any details of the fire, but I am going over there with Mr. Nichols and a lepresenlatlve of the Roebllngs.

I will ee what has io be done, but until I have seen the damage I cannot make any report on It. The Commissioner was asked If he could give any approximate Idea of tne delay that the fire would cause. AH depends on the Injuries to the main cablet. The damage to the cables le a very serious matter. I have always been afraid of fires on the Brooklyn Bridge.

I have repeatedly pointed out the danger taxable from fir. In ease of a fire the Iron only warps, but tha damage to the cable is a most serious matter and for this reason 1 have been urging that fireproof floors be laid on the bridges In place of the wooden floor. For the same reason that I have urged fire-proof floor for th Brooklyn Bridge, I have insisted on fire-proof floor for all of the new bridges. The matter of fire-proofing the floors and making the bridges other-wise safe from damage by fire Is one of the main things that has led to the change In the plans of the structure. The new plans for the Brooklyn Bridge will provide for fire-proof floors.

At present there are metal stand ptpea on the' Brooklyn Bridge, as prescribed by the Fir Department, and fire protection has been made In accord with the directions of that department.

Borough President Swanstrom Is of thd cplnlon that, despite the great damage wrought by yesterday fire, the new East River Bridge will be completed and ready for traffic before the end of next year. He said this morning: "Whatever may be the outcome of the Investigation which will at once be started to fix the responsibility of the fire, there will be no delay In beginning the work of repair.

In vie of the urgent need of the new bridge to relieve the crush at the old one, public sentiment will now demand that the -contractors push the construction with might and, main, so that the bridge can lie opened to traffic by next fall. No morej delays will be tolerated. Regarding the responsibility for the fire, President Swanstrom said that the calamity must have been due to gross negligence on the part of the employes of the Roebling Company. Speaking es a lawyer, he added, and judging from the Information I have so far been able to obtain aa to the origin of the fire, I should say that the Roebling Company Is legally responsible for It, and, therefore, must make good the It appears that in the shanty here the fire started a mass of easily inflammable matt rial was being kept, a condition that could not possibly exist without th-knowledge of the man who la in charge of the construction work. It was therefore his duty to see that the possibility of fire 1b that ehanty was eliminated.

What do I think was the cause of the fire? Well, just how it originated doesn't matter in the least, but the cause, I think, as I have already stated, wart gross negligence. That fact established and proved, the Roebling Company will have to pay the damage without a doubt. Then, the only defense the Roebling Company can set up Is spontaneous combustion? Mr. Swanstrom w-as asked, "Yes, he replied with a smile, or that the Inflammable material was hit by a bolt of lightning. But suppose the Roebling Company Is exonerated from all blame, where Is tha money to come from to repair the damage.

which is estimated at about a million dollars. 1 I shall bring the matter before thw Board of Estimate and Apportionment at its next meeting, said Mr. Swan strom. If It ts found that the Roebling Company cannot be held responsible for the fire, I shall suggest to the Board an -Issue of corporate stock or special revenue bonds large enough to meet the situation. The money will be needed at once, of course, as there must not be a single days unnecessary delay In starting the work of reconstruction.

Perhaps the damage done by the fire Is not quite as great as has been estimated.
