ST. PAUL’S CATHEDRAL
CONSOLIDATING THE PIERS. London, May 23. St. Paul’s is now safe according to experts, says the Evening News. Constant observations by plumb-lines and theodolites show that there has been no movement in the piers for two years. The main job, namely, consolidation of the piers, is nearly finished. The next big operation consists of winding a chain four times round the dome to prevent it spreading. Each link will be 15ft long.—Australian Press Association.
