THE steamer War Eagle, of the Up
per Mississippi line, bound down from
ST. Paul with large list of passengers
and freight, on the night Of the 4th came
into collision with the drawbridge
at Keokuk and was hopelessly disa-
bled. As the boat struck the bridge pier the
latter gave way, and then with terrific
crash, an entire span toppled over on the
stricken vessel, crushing a large hole in her
side, through which the water poured in a
vast flood. The passengers were hastily
gathered together upon the hurricane deck,
and many climbed from the boat upon the
bridge The boat soon afterward swung
clear from the bridge and fioated down
stream with the current few hundred
yards, when she rounded to and was made
fast to the bank, and The passengers were
safely transferred to terra tirma. First re-
ports regarding loss of life were contradic-
tory, but it was thought at least two or three
were drowned.
