A SKELETON BRIDGE SWEPT.
The Timbers and Trestling of the South
Side Bridge Wrecked.
Especial telegram TO the Dispatch. j

Especial telegram to the Dispatch]
CHARLESTON, VIVA. January 2.-The false
work for the channel span of the Charles
ton and South Side bridge across the
Kanawha river, at this point, was washed
out at O'Clock this evening. The river
has been rising for two days with a swift
current, but the trestling resisted the
pressure of the water till this afternoon,
when it gave a little and moved about q
foot down the stream. AS the river rose
the pressure became greater on the upper
part of the timbers. and the increased
leverage of the water was too much for the
timbers to stand.
TREMENDOUS CRASH.
The trestling fell with tremendous
crash and floated down the river. The
steamer Spring Hill immediately started in
pursuit and caught the timbers half mile
below the city. They were badly wrench
ed and damaged. The loss will reach
about 81, 600. The Keystone Bridge Com,
Tor the bridge. The trestling was the
work of six weeks and was all ready for the
iron work. which would have been partly
up bat for the rising river. The south
shore span, which is already up, was unin-
iured, as was the traveller" constructed
to carry the iron work out for the chan
mel span. The trestling was built up some
ninety ieet from Iut DObtOiu Vi tHc IlNci
and the part carried out was about $50 feet
long.
THE LOSS FULLY 100000.
The trestling. which was secured by the
steamer Spring Hill, got away again during
the heavy wind and fioated down the river.
1t was followed as far as Lock 6, where the
pursuit was given up on account OF dark
ness. The loss viii reach fully 500, 900
now that the timbers have escaped. The
boat is still after them. but cannot hope
to catch them before daylight. With the
swift current in the river they viii proba-
bly, be dashed to pieces before beng
caught.
FEARS FOR PASSENGER STEAMER.
Grave fears are entertained for the safety
of the Handy, No. 2. passenger steamer,
which was coming up the liver. She passed
Lock on her way up, but has not reached
Lock G. All efforts to hear from her have
been in vain, and 1t is supposed that she
either laid TO on account of the current or
struck the bridge-timbers in the darkness.
| If the bridge-timbers hit the boat they
| must have knocked a hole in her hull.
