incidents connected with the firing and
burning of the Central Pacific Rail-
road bridge owe the American River
on Thursday morning. We extract
the following rs the statement Of the
Waterman on the bridge:
The first I knew Of the FIRE was at a little
after | o'clock on Thursday morning. I was
lying down in my cabin, when l was startled
by cries for me and the noise Of a pistol shot.
] Immediately went out and recognized the
voice Of friend, and at the same time saw
f.mcs issuing from the other side Of the
bridge. / Immediately took one Of the two
observation-disclosures furnished me BY the COM
pany and FASTENED over the bridge. On
reaching the western end Of the bridge !
found flames issuing from the frame work
over the FIRST or western pile. There arc FIVE
piles to the bridge. The following is how
the bridge was set on FIRE, as near as l could
Judge: ] found that the bridge had been
fired at both ends OF the upper Gods Of the
first pile and in the middle Of the gable. l
iOunQ u pot ot cuips anu hRnt Wooo Pheu W
on the lower Gods of this pile I asked the
man below to come up and help me put out
the FIRE. but he was afraid and would not; l
then tried TO put out the ERE with the extin.
guisher, but found tina, I could do no good
with il, as i, could not throw far enough ; |
then gave the job up, and went and asked nay
friend about the Are; he said he was coming
to me with some chickens, when he saw the
bridge on FIRE and three men running As for
life. He said he was very much frightened
bv this I then told him to hurry back and
tell the railroad men Of the FIRE; he then
went away in about t~hres-quarters Of an
hour people commenced arriving at the
bridge. The flames spread as fast as they
could walk, and in an hour and a half the
bridge was all in flames, when l asked my
friend to 60 to town, he said he did not want
TO, as he was afraid the men would shoot
him; the wind a. the time the fire broke out
was blowing briskly from the west, and hur-
ried the flames through the covering Of the
bridge I crossed the bridge at 63 P. u. and
81 2. ", and found all right; this is all
know about tho matter.
