ENeULFED IN SAND.
A Sad Accident to Bridge Builders
near Louisville,

LoUIsvILLE, KY, Jan. 9.-The most
appalling accident known here in many
years occurred this evening about 6
o'clock.
Caisson No. l, about 100 yards from the
Kentucky shore used in the construction
Of the new bridge between Louisville and
Jefrersonville, suddenly gave way, and
the workmen employed in it were either
drowned or crushed to death by stone and
timbers.
As the workmen at the pumping station
were locking for the men in the caisson to
put of in their boats, leaving for the night
they suddenly saw the low dark structure
in dashing white waves.
The life saving station was Immediately
notified Of the accident and three skifis
were manned and pulled TO the acene Of
the wreck. Word was also sent TO the po :
lice station and squad was at once Or
dered to the ground 70 aid In the work of
recovery. -.
The site Of the bridge is at the upper
end of the city, just below Towhead island
Within an hour from kthe disappearance
Of the caisson 1000 people were on the
shore and strained their eyes to see some
thing Of the wreckage. Dozens Of boats
were plying about the spot where the cais-
son had stood and the life lights danced to
and fro with them, but there was not q
trace Of the massive structure Of stone and
timber.
1t was soon known that only four Of tho
eighteen men who were at work At the
time Of the accident had escaped
The last man out of tho caisson was
Frank Hodde. He barely escaped by the
help Of Murray who dragged him from the
place where he was caught waist deep In
the quicksand.
Abe Taylor, one OF the saved, says he
stood nearest the iron ladder by which
they got in and out. He heard rumbling
and there WAS u rush Of air at almost the
Same time, He jumped up the rungs of
the ladder, followed by the other men.
They had hardly got clear of the caisson
when the water burst through the man
hole, knocking them into the river, where
they were picked ny.
Haddix said that he saw Morris, who
was climbing next below himself, swiftly
drawn under by the sand and heard his
cries for help, but ould do nothing.
