A Plan Adopted by Oficials After an Investi- gation Yesterday. ‘Secretary Tindall, Building Inspector Entwisle end Harbormaster Sutton made an official pil- grimage to thie bathing beach yesterday after- noon. In compliance with a request of the officials a string of bathers who could swim clasped hands and marched out into the water. In this way many holes of dangerous depth were discov- ered. Two yellow pine joists, 41x38, were found, and so firmly planted were they that they could not be pulled up. They protruded | above the river bed eighteen inches and werea jock | menace to divers. Edward Thomas, a white man, secured a saw and went beneath the sur- face and cut the stakes down flush with the bottom of the river. Each piece of timber was sawed off in two dives. It was quite a feat. To guard against further drowhinge at the beach the following plan was decided on: A si foot close board fence is to be built from point midway between the white bath house and springboard to # point on the opposite shore midway between the colored bath house and springboard. At flood tide this fence will be from fifteen to twenty feot out from the water line. ‘The utmost depth at- ebb tide will not much exceed one foot, and, allowing for four-foot tide, the maximum depth inside this inclosure will be five feet. Persons unable to swim will, wherever possible, be restrained from over- stepping this safety line. The fence will be ‘0 | about three hundred and fifty feet long. —_ TO TAKE STRIKERS’ PLACES. ial | A Large Number of Men Left New York for Homestead. A large number of men left New York yoster- day on various trains bound for Pittsburg and, it is said, are destined to fill the places of strikers at Homestead. The 1:30 o'clock train on the New,Jersey Central carried @ number of men who had the appearance of artisans and who bought tickets direct to Pittsburg. Others were aircady furnished with tickets for the same place. There was another detachment ‘that went away on the western express on the Pennsylvania road, which left at 6:30. ‘An officer at the Courtlandt street station stated that detachments of from six to ten men, evidently workmen and apparently about to take a lohg journey, had crossed the ferry at various times during the afternoon. It is thought that altogether over 100 men left the city yesterday for Pittsburg.
