ST. GEORGE, Ont, Feb. 2S.-The St
Louis express, passing here castbound
about 8 o'clock last night, went through
a bridge just east Of the station. A
broken tire on one Of the engine wheels
caused the rails to spread and the frs
passenger car, Pullman car and dining
car went through the middle section O.
the bridge. The Pullman car, which con
contained most Of the passengers, wa
thrown clear off the bridge, turning com
pletely over and landing right side up
The dining car stands on end against 6
pier. The passenger car remained on the
bridge, having stripped the ties ahead OF
it over the section that collapsed. Eight
or ten persons were killed and about
thirty wounded were taken out of the
cars.
The dining room car contained about
seven persons besides the waiter. Sup
per had just been announced, and in a
few minutes the car would have been
filled and all must have persisted.
The scene at the wreck is appalling.
On n part of the bridge are a number
Of ties heaped together, some Of them
splintered TO atoms. The partially de-
molished Pullman car occupies a place on
the bridge. The dining car stands al.
most perpendicuIarly upon its end. The
tirst-class coach took a complete somer-
sault in its descent, and though ii landed
right side up, it is very nearly demol-
ished. A heap Of debris lies at the foot
Of one Of the piers and "A strange con.
