The men weru consldeinhly hampered In their work todu by scores of in quisitive residents, who were undir the impression that their stores or dwell ings were to be torn down. Many wanted detailed information retarding the direction of the structure and some could not be convinced thnt their pres ent business places were safe. Kalph Mudjcskl, chief engineer in charge of the deigning and builditi!; of the bridge, today told for the lir-t time iu detail the actual steps in the laying of tho foundation and the construction of the great -pan as it will take place during the next live yenrs. Old Story to ModJesUI Although the bul'dlng of bridges is by this time an old story to Mr. .Modjcki", he told in a graphic, and at times. dramatic manner, the way In which the foundations will be sunk and built, tlu big cables laid and the great super structure reared -until one of thN ritj's proudest achievements will have become an accomplished fact "Much like the weaving of n spider's web will be a largo part of the con ttruction. said Mr. Mudjcskl. and , .. ,,, - "- much 111 the sainc wn did he wea a woru-iutiiire in me engineering won; from the spectacular sinking of the caissons ou through the vaiious pro cesses as the structure connecting the two cities nnd two Slate will rear its majestic figure above the Delaware River. "Although." Bald Mr. Modjcskl. "contract number one, or the first step in building the bridge will be the be ginning of test borings for liters nml anchorages to Mart August is. the actual work of construction to the casual observer, will be the sinking if caissons tor the constr.ivtion of tli main piers and foundations. '""m "I.cfore this is done, of course, con tracts must be let. The ;irm of pneu matic experts to do the work will as semble a plant here nnd two great ruis wins will be constructed. Thev will be about 70 by 143 feet, and Before they sare finnlly in place on ruck bottom of tbe river, tilled with coneiete and --ealeil. may attain a depth of innet feet. This distance nt the present time i. piobie matio.il and must be determined bj the conditions which we encounter nt the bottom of the river. How Vt-k Will Start "We will flrt build ways near the bridge, or it might be possible to use the hipwas of a nearb.x shipyard. (Here the caissons will be constructed, ana tnen when they are completed they will be lauuehed. with or without cere- mon,v. as may be decided. "While the financial status of tho commission will be a de-iding factor, it would bo best to sink the caissons on each side of the river nt the name time, Work for "Sand Hop" After the caissons arc floated, tlwy are gradually sunk to the bottom of the river, as concrete is step by step ijit into the vessel. At the bottom of the caisson ti a chamber where -sand nogs. or caisson workmen, will gradually force the big case to rock bottom. While it is difficult to figure exnrti.x, we might say for Illustration, that the river will bo about forty feet deep at tnsu point. It may be that we will have to dig down another fortv feet from the bed of the river before we strike the neces sary rock bottom. "As the caisson begins to lowei n, the water, more and more concrete is poured In. Tlxtn, us we get near the tip, we will build inasoiir) to add n the sTm to y ;irr,.r ;;;; pears at apparently the same height above the water. nut the engineer ' knows thnt all the time, the caisson i , sinking slowlj toward the bottom. The rate of sinking has varied from three i Inches to eleven feel per day, but It will probably average about a toot a day. "When the caisson finnlly rests on the bed of the river the real work of the 'sand hog' begins This i work of the most tedious, dangerous anil ex acting kind. Severe malady or death may be the pnrt of the intrepid fellows who uo mis pari ni ine oik iuii.

"When the bed has been reached these specialists then begin the work of digging towards rock bottom. The principal ingredients that they will find on the river bed are sand, gravel and clay.

Members of th" IWgdoll committee, whirh will fnrmtilnte its report, arc con vinced the gold was never burled in the mountains nenr Hagerstown. but sctiially was burled on the Pergdoll furm, nnd hns been there nil the time. This opinion W held by Representa tive Luhring. of Indiana. wio has fol lowed the "pot-of-gold" phase of the cn-e from its beginning. It is also the opinion of Representative Pen Johnson, of Kentucky, who supplied the drama of the last two days of the investiga tion. examining th" records. Johnson satd todav thnt the evidence points to the burial of the gold, but not in the moun. to'iis, nnd suggested the jKfs'hi'ltv that ..nine of it was produced when Perg doll took his guard to the Pergdoll farm during the two-day stny in Philadel phia prior to his escape.

The afflicted persons knelt along the communion rail while a priest put to their lips or to their foreheads a reliquary in which were several sma1! bones believed to have conjc from the wrists of the saint. Then, ln the ma jority of cases, the priest would lay his hand on the afflicted spots indicated by each person. Among those who went to the church was Felix Gnlecki, eleven yenrs old, l'(H Mayfield street.
