FALL OF AN IRON BRIDGE, WITH TWO HUNDRED
PERe0NS-OyER THIRTY PEOPLE DROWNED
AND TwENTY-FoUR INJURED.
A terrible accident occurred at Dixon, H.,
Yesterday afternoon, which resulted in the
death or thirty to forty persons. The rite of
baptism was being administered at point in
Rock river just below the Truesdale iron bridg ).
and about two hundred persons, including MANY
ladies and number OF children, had gathered
on the bridge to witness the ceremony. Sud-
denly. without warning, the bridge gave way
and precipitated its living freight into the
stream below. The scenes which ensued were
indescribably terrible as the struggling victims
vainly underworld to free themselves from the
ruins of the bridge and from each other. Large
crowds of people on the bank rushed wildly to
and fro, and many of them 50 distracted with
terror as to be unable to render any assistance
others more self-possessed speedily brought
ropes, planks, and boats, and went nobly to
work to rescue the living and recover the dead
Some OF those who were on the bridge when it
fell were so near the ends that they we.e able
to reach land without assistance. Up to 6
O'Clock last evening 80 dead bodies had been
taken from the river, and 1t is almost certain
there are others still under the wreck Of tie
bridge. or those saved twenty-four were more
or less injured.
