A THRILLING INCIDENT AT THE DArENp OFT
BRIDGE.-The single pieces of the top cord Of
the new bridge weigh 10000 pounds each.
The way they have been raised to position
heretofore has becu by wrapping fifth
chain" four times around the piece to be
elevated, when a crab gently lifted them up
with pulleys and q wire-rope tackle. Two
pieces 90 up at time. Late on Tuesday
afternoon one of the pieces had been raised
almost to the height intended, when the
links in the chain about it were heard to
snap. The men below fedfrom their places,
while those above could do little more than
step aside and wait the result.
Foreman Archer, who was on another por-
ton of the bridge, ran to the scene Of terror,
and saw at q glance the cause of the fright.
Links in three of the coils about the cords
had snapped in two, leaving that weight Of
FIVE tons suspended by single wrap of ordi-
nary chain. 1t wouldn't do to lower tue cord,
for the impetus would be sufficient to tear
the slight attachment aSunder. Archer threw
ropes to the men ut the top, and three Of
these persons clambered to the suspended
cord, put the ropes around it, lashed il to the
fulse work above, and thus relieved the strain
on the chain. -#.
Then the cord was lowered, wire rope was
substituted for the chain, the piece WAS
hauled up again and put in position. Had
that piece of chain broken the false work
beneath would have given way under it and
gone down with crash. 1t is the opinion
Of MI. Archer that only the timbers directly
under the cord would have been broken, and
that the rest of the false work and the span
would have stood firm. Others differ with
him, and think the whole span-wood, iron,
and all--wouid have gone down in ruin. in
yolying a loss of about $4,000, and the lives
of score Of men. However, it is fortunate
that the links Of that remaining piece of
chain had strength enough to allow this diff
ference Of opinion.-Dacenport (lotca) Ga

HUNDRED L1vEs.--A sad accident occurred
here last night, which proved fatal to a num-
Der of lives. The scene Of the catastrophe
was the north bank of the Han river, about
a quarter of mile above its confluence with
the Yangtse. A portion of the bank, close
to busy jetty, suddenly gave way about 9
o'clock in the evening. Four houses. which
were partially suspended on long piles, ail
the inmates of those houses, and part OF the
street running parallel with the river, were
borne along with the earth into the waters
below. A number of boats lying at anchor
just at that spot, and underneath the houses,
were crushed aud buried In an instant, leap-
