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.
