There Was Much Discussion Over the Length of Time Structure Would Stand Enormous Daily Traffic. NEW YORK, May 26.-Twenty-five years ago yesterday, there occur red one of the wonders of the world. It was the opening on May 24, 1883, with a great demonstration of tthe Brooklyn Bridge, in commemoration of that event, American flags were Hung to the breeze yesterday from the top of the greatest towers for a few years alter the opening, wise acres, looking up from the ferry boats held many conterences as to now long the structure would last. They never dreamed that the bridge could possi bly stand the strain put upon it for a quarter of a century. In fact, soon after the opening, there was much dis-ctis-ion over what was termed the "folley" of permitting heavily laden wagons on the roadway. While the record of the number of persons crossing the bridge is no longer kept, the number of trolley ears alone crossing gives a fair idea of the traffic. Between three and four thousand cars now cross the bridge every day and each car seat sixty persons, therefore, the passen gers in the seats, number 200,fX)0 a day or over 70,000,000 a year. In the first year the cable road operated a total of 8,528,000 passengers was con sidered enormous. On decoration day, 1883 a woman stumbling at the foot of a flight of stairs at the New York tower, caused a panic and a crush which resulted in the death of 12 persons. This is the most appalling of the accidents in the long life of the structure. The total expenditures for maintenance and operation of the bridge up to the close of 1907 was $21,343,509 and the total receipts were $21,267,064. The Old Reliable CHICAGO PAINLESS DENTISTS Cor.
