quarter that stress is allowed to ,be
placed on the cables.

was found that the length of each had
increased from three to three and a
half feet. J. E. Murphy, of the O.-W.
R. & N. Company, had charge of the

The most remarkable thing . about
the. replacement of the cables, accord

sence of accidents. All the tools with
which the men have worked were tied
