siusers Views Of the Matter.
The scene at the accident to the B. &
o. bridge was an animated one, yester-
day. Crowds of people visited it during
the day and took the liveliest interest in
what was Transporting. Superintendent
Sinsel arrived the night before and had
h large force OF men at work clearing up
the debris and repairing the bridge. 1t
is the intention at present to floor over
the hole and discontinue that track until
a new truss is put in. Preparations
looking to that end are now making.
Most.of the -four and wheat and por-
ton OF the fragments OF wood have been
removed from the wreck OF the engine,
and by noon to-day the latter will be
completely exposed and ready for work.
Mr.. SinseI thinks the engine proper has
been but slightly damaged, the deep
water having broken the fall. The tank
has been torn from the tender truck,
but the latter, as we'll as the trucks OF
the freight cars, seem to have sustained
little or no injury. At the south side
side OF the creek mouth heavy block
and tackle is being placed, for the pur.
pose OF pulling the engine up. A der.
rick is now at work removing the de-
bris, hosting it through the aperture in
the bridge.
Mr.. Sinsel believes the bridge to be in
good condition. The broken pier he
thinks has settled upon the bed rock and
is more secure than ever. The ten
bridges, FIVE on each side Of the pier, are
Fink iron trusses, with iron chords and
truss-posts, and are the best known.
They had been but recently examined,
and he is at loss to account for the &C.
cident. When the iron il raised an ex.
animation will readily discover the
cause. 1t will be an easy task to dis.
tinguish tension rupture from square
break.
AS soon as new truss can be made,
1t will be put over the span, and the
bridge will be as good "a new.

1t was slip in the furnace, similar to
