GREAT FINANCIAL LOSS

The eliminating disaster on the ILL
fated Louisville and Jacksonville bridge
occurred at ten minutes past 10 o'clock
a. m., last Friday, the 10Th inst. Atthat
time the fourth span OF the structure
gave way and fell into the river. In its
decent it carried with it more than a
score of workmen down to their death
beneath the waves OF the dark and dan
gerous Ohio, while many others are in
jured and missing.
The accident is one of the most horri-
BILE that ever occurred in this section,
and many are the hearts that are rended
and the tears that are shed, because OF
the great disaster. There was but a
moments warning and those that escap-
ed going down with the mass of timber
and iron, saved themselves by rushing
to the piers. Alter the bridge had fallen
for hundreds OF feet on either side OF
them, eighteen men were left standing
huddled together in mid-air, one hun

CHOLERA /!
FRESH OUTBREAK IN BERLIN.
Alarm for Its Invasion of America

The telegraphic dispatches of January
21st report the outbreak of cholera anew,
in Berlin, SO cases and 10 deaths being
reported.
Just now, when an epidemic of Asiatic
cholera is among the alarming possible
ties, all stomach and bowel troubles as
sumo an importance beyond the ordi-
nary, and should meet with prompt
treatment. Cholera morbus, cholera in
fantum, diarrhea, dysentary, flux, collie
and cramps, wind on the stomach, flatul-
ency, distress after eating, ETC., all point
conclusively TO bad condition OF the
stomach and bowels, and all such disor-
ders should be corrected at once.

ANOTHER CRASH.
As the work of clearing the debris and
searching for the dead was progressing
on Friday night about $50 o'clock anoth-
er terrible crash was heard The third
span of the bridge had given way and
dropped in the river. There was no one
on this span at the time, but the financial
loss was much more than that caused by
the morning disaster. The total loss to
the company will approximate $l50,0O0.
The engineers attribute the cause OF both
disasters to the high winds that were
prevailing at the time, though there are
many different opinions entertained by
the people.
| MIRACULOUS ESCAPES.
There were many miraculous escapes
and thrilling experiences, and as a speci-
men we will give that of George w.
Brown, of Irvington this county. He
was one of the bosses on the ill-fated
structure and went down with the first
bent. He tells his experience in his own
language "The first knew was cry
to run for the pier, but before / could

high winds were dashing against and

ing and falling with the waves, W, re
seen many of the unfortunate workmen,
with broken arms and legs and bruised
heads and bodies, struggling for their
lives, while those, who from fright or
disability, chung to the irons or timbers,
went down to rise no more except in
death.
TO THE RESCUE.
The terrible disaster was witnessed
from both shores, the sound of the crash
was heard for many squares, the news
spread rapidly to other districts and soon
the levees were crowded by thousands Of
anxious spectators Lifeboats, skiffs and
steamboats, were quickly manned and
pulled rapidly to the scene Of destruct-
ion, that as many lives might be saved as
possible.
AS the dead and the dying, the MAIN
ed and the wounded were brought
ashore many touching scenes occurred.
Wives were there anxiously enquiring
for missing husbands, mothers and
fathers inquiring for sons; sisters looking
for brothers, and weeping children ask
ing if papa was killed Occasionally one
OF the missing would turn up alive and
well and be covered with embraces and
tears of joy, while again loving hearts
would be rended as familiar form
would be brought OUT manned for life
or cold in death.
THE DEAD.
The following were taken out dead or
injured on the day OF the disaster:

lures. These were rescued by a rope
ladder, thrown them from steamboat.
THE ACCIDENT.
The foreman, when beginning work on
the morning of the fatal day, noticed
that the high winds OF the night before
had worked the traveller" loose and he
ordered his men to pull it back into its
place. The traveller" was tall frame
structure, made of heavy timbers. II
was l044 feet high, 80 feet long and &c
feet wide. 1t ran on track made for il
end was moved forward as the work pro.
crossed. -Four or five engines were on
the "traveler" and were used in hosting
heavy iron beams to their places.
The wind was still blowing at the rate
OF thirty miles an hour and the great
traveller" swayed back and forth from
its force. Every time it would lean up
the river its great weight would push the
piles OF the false work, ON which it rest
ed, down the river. The workmen motto
ed this and realized their danger, con-
sequently they worked with more care
than usual and some of them became 80
frightened that they quit wo.k and start
ed for the Kentucky shore.
The efforts OF the men could not move
the traveller" back into its position, but
on the contrary every swing of the
mighty structure was moving it further
out, till at last it slipped off the piles
that were supporting it. 1t came down
with terrible crash, carrying with it a
mass OF large timbers, iron beams and
struggling humanity.
About fifty men were on and around
the traveller" at the time the crash
came. The first warning they had was
the cracking as if of heavy timbers and
almost at the same instant they felt the
false work of the bridge sinking from
under them. Those that were not al
work up among the frame works of the
traveller" made rush for the piers.
The traveller" was near the northern
or Indiana end of the span and by nigh
the connection would have been made
The span was 500 feet long, and thos,
workmen who started for the southern
pier had quite distance to run before
they reached place Of safety. AS tn,
span went down the northern end first
these men were soon climbing up a
quite a steep angle. Eighteen mer
had reached the pier and the nineteenth
fell with his hands touching the colo
stones when the frame work separated
from the pier and he went down with 1t

pier, but one of these got entangled in I

HISTORY OF THE BRIDGE.
The history of the Louisville and JET
fersonville bridge forms a chapter Of
disastrous accidents and financial fail
ures.
1t was first chartered in 1879, re-char-
tered in 1888 and in 1889 the first dirt
was broken.
More than seventy-fve men have lost
their lives since its construction began.
Fourteen men were drowned in a
caisson at one time and seven at another,
while there has hardly been a week
while work was going on, but what one
or more fatal accidents have occurred.
1t broke the Masonic Savings Band,
and the failure of the Earrings caused
work to be suspended in 1890. This
yeara syndicate, composed chiefly of the
CLEVELAND, Cincinnati, Chicago and St.
Louis Railroad Company, secured con-
troll Of the bridge, and with the money
furnished by it the bridge is being COM
pleted. The financial loss OF this, the
greatest of all the disasters, falls upon
the Phoenix Bridge Company, of Phoen-
ixville, Pa. 1t will probably reach
$4,000.
LATER.
The work of clearing the debris of the
wrecked bridge and searching for the
dead continues. Up to yesterday three
more victims had been'recovered, They
were the bodies of G. F. Holderer,
Springfield, ILL.,; George Lilly, Piney
Flats, Tenn; IL. Plaiss, New Albany,
Ind. This makes nine dead bodies re-
covered, and there yet remain thirteen
more names to be checked off the list OF
the missing.
