A BRIDGE GOES DOWN.
woRkmeN LOSE THEIR LIVES.
A Portion OF the Unoompistsd Bridge ~
Louisville. Kentucky, Blown Down
BY High Wind.

At q few minutes past 10 O'Clock Friday
morning the false work and that part Of tho
middle span Of tho Louisville and JeRerson-
willie bridge in place gave way, and with all
tho workmen was precipitated ITO feet into
tho water below. The accident was horrt
bic one, and 10 tho last OF long list Of catas
trophies that have marred the construction Of
the bridge.
Tho foreman IN beginning work, noticed
that during the night the "travcler," which
had been put In place last night, had been
worked loose BY the wind. An order 70 draw
1t back into place was gwen and the mon and
engines started. Tho wind was high at the
time and the swaying Of the false work gradu-
ally forced the traveller of tho piles on which
1t was resting. When the end slipped the
whole work trcmbled and the men, realizing
their danger, started for tho piers. The cen.
ira. bent was the first TO give way, and the
men on this bent went down TO DO covered
with the mass Of iron and timber Of tho other
benta which fell almost Immediately, carrying
with them the other workmen who failed to
reach places of safety on the piers. The north
bent, or the ono attached 10 tho Indiana pier,
did not fall for fifteen minutes after the othrxj
part went down. SrSSsns
As ncar as can be ascertained there wero
ffty-ono men on the bridge when the alarm
was given by the engineer in charge Of the
work. OF this number several succeeded
in reaching the piers. OF those men
who went down, some were covered by a
mass Of timber, from beneath which Il will be
days before their bodies arc recovered.
The crash attracted the attention Of those
on the shore and many turned away their
eyes as they saw the men struggling In mid
air in their mad efforts to climb out Of tho
danger. When the huge mass Of material
struck the water all was concealed for an In
slant by the spray that was thrown high Into
the air. As the water subsidized, hero and
there could DO seen men struggling desper-
ately TO climb up on the timbers that thrust
their ends above the water. A few succeeded
In clinging to the places OF safety and were
quickly rescued by boats from the shore.
Others struggled desperately and were car
ried oil by the current to sink almost rs res
cue was at hand.
Five bodies were recovered at once. Six
teen workmen are missing and there Is little
hope that they are alive. Thirteen wero In
jured, one or two Of whom will die.

Advice to Persons Having Pulmonary
Complaint by this Doctor.
CINCINNATI, o., Dec. ls.--At n meeting of
physicians prescribing the Amick cure for
consumption, called to discuss with the dis
covercr at his homo here his published asser-
ton that change Of climate is unnecessary, DR..
Amick said to-day; "a warm, dry climate Is
beneficial II the patient stays in 1t permanent
ly, but harm always results from stay of a
few weeks or months when the patient re-
turns TO colder temperature or lower alti-
tudc. Unless patients desiring my treatment"
be said, 'can go away TO remain until May,
advise them to take tho medicines In the
comfort OF their own homet, but before they
definitely abandon any proposed trip, depend
Ing absolutely upon my discovery, urge
each to frat try the treatment free Of expense
and then decide for themselyc. l therefore
furnish free tcst medicines for all having any
lung trouble TO enable both physician and
patient to judge tho results."

SILVER MEN CONFER.
FIFTY Champions Of the Cause Meet at
Warrington and Talk About
New Silver Party.

Warrington and Talk About
New Silver Party.
A dispatch from Washington to the Denver
Republiean gives the following facts concern
Ing tho conference of silver leaders which
opened thereon the 18th:
The executive committee Of tho Bimetallic
League held meeting In this city to-day, the
greater part Of which was behind closed
ioors. Before the conference adjourns hnal-
" series Of resolutions will DO passed ad-
dressed TO the American people.
Most of the familiar faces OF the silver
leaders were there, including General Weaver
OF Iowa and General Field, Senator Stewart
Of Nevada, Captain Kolbc, the Alabama lead
National Grange; Moreton Frewcn, tho Eng
lsh authority on bimetallIsm; Colonel Beverly
Of Virginia, Judge Sheldon Of Connecticut
and many others. In all tho conferrees num-
Sercd about fifty, representing the bone and
sincw Of the frcc-silvcr movement. The con-
ference Is proceeding behind closed doors.
Senators Jones and Stewart Of Nevada, Ma
ter Workman Sovereign Of the KnIghts OF La
Dor and National Lecturer Whitehead OF the
Changers, were among the speakers OF the
afternoon.
Frequent references were made during tho
speeches to the necessity Of organizing Sill
yer party, made up OF the elements heretofore
gathered under the standards Of the Populists,
The National Grange, the Knights OF Labor,
the Farmers Alliance, etc. The tendency OF
the conference ia toward new organization.
The probability Is that the first effort OF the
united forces will be exerted to carry the
congressional elections next fall. 1t Is undo
cidcd as yet as to whether this will be done
by nominating m independent silver candi-
date to Congress, or by indorslns such OF the
candidates Of the old parties who have shown
by their records that they favor silver. 1t is
the belief Of those attending the conference
that a national silver ticket will be put in the
field, as result Of the present meeting and
Of the victories 1t hopes to achieve In the con-
gressional elections.
Senator Jones said at the close OF the
days conference that this new national party
was among tho strong probabilities OF the
meeting.
