Serious Accident at n Summer Resort
Nenr CIeveIand-More Than a Score In.
jured, Several of Them seriously and
One Fatally.
CLEVELAND, June 15.-There was stri-
GUS accident this evening at Beyerle's Park,
a summer resort in the southern part OF the
city. At least 5000 people had assembled
to see a man jump from cable stretched
across miniature artificial lake. People
stood all around the lake, and hundred or
more were on rustic footbridge about ten
feet from the ground and extending
from a bluff ont across the lake.
TIE Jumper made the descent at
about $50 O'Clock. He struck the
water near the shore, and the people on the
bridge made rush for the place. Nearly
all of them were massed on 35-foot span
adjoining the bluff. The structure fell with
a crash, going down in the middle. The
footpaths under the bridge were crowded
with people and upon these the timbers fell,
while those on the building were thrown in
q heap in the center Of the span where it
struck the ground. At least % persons were
injured more or less seriously, but only
eight were hurt SO badly that they had to 60
to a hospital. Following is a list of the seri-
ously injured:
James Sanford, So years, 24o Lake street.
right leg fractured and internal injuries, prob
ably fatal; Rudolph Woodrlck. 2S years, 43
Louis street. right leg fractured and head
bruised; Mrs. Rudolph Woodrck, spine and
shoulder hurt; Jesse Caldwell, " years. Broad
way. ankle fractured and arm badly injured;
Bertha Munter, Is years, 8l9 Clark avenue,
right hip fractured and internal injuries; Anna
Thoman. IA years, S31 Clark avenue, right ankle
broken; Mary ThomaD, % years. bach and head
injured; unknown. onelegged man, leg broken.
Had the bridge broken over the lake the
list of deaths would have been alarmingly
large.

Eight Hundred Chinese soldiers Slaughtered
the Rebellious Savages.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcHI
SAN FRANCISCO, June 15.-Advices re-
ceived from China give the story of the
slaughter of 300 soldiers in Tamsui. The
news of the massacre reached Shanghai
on May by the warship Feicheu, which
brought about 1900 sick and wounded
braves from General Lin's army, operating
against the sayages in the southeast part of
the island. The Generals forces have
not so far been very successful, and their
despised enemy, the savages. seem to have
come out uppermost in all recent encounters,
despite the great preparations which the
Government had been making for months
before he set out to exterminate his wary
enemies. e.,
Over 800 soldiers were slaughtered in an
ambuscade by savages. The General and
his second in command, whose deaths have
already been recorded, were beheaded, and
their mutilated bodies brought back to
Feicheu.
