His trip to South Fork Dam on Wednesday has convinced him that the burden of this great disaster rests on the shoulders of the South Fork Hunting and Fishing Club of Pittsburgh. The verdict was written to-night, but not all the jury were ready to sign it. It finds the South Fork Hunting and Fishing Club responsible for tlie loss of life because of gross, if not criminal negli- gence, and of carelessness in making repairs from time to time. This would let the Pennsylvania Rail- road Company out ...from all blame for allowing the dam to fall so badly out of repair when they got con- trol of the Pennsylvania Canal and abandoned it. The verdict is what might have been expected after Wednesday's testimony. 384 THE JOHNSTOWN HORROR. Mr. A. M. Wellington, with P. Burt, associate editor of the Engineering News, of New York, has just com- pleted an examination of the dam which caused the great disaster here. Mr. Wellington states that the dam was in every respect of very inferior construction, and of a kind wholly unwarranted by good engineering practices of thirty years ago.
