THROUGH A BRIDGE.
BAD ACCIDENT ON THE CANADIAN
PACIFIC ROAD.
All but Three Cars of n Passenger
Train Go Through n Burning
Brige-Two People Are Killed
and Several Others Are Injured.

Winnipeg, Man, June ia bad acct
dent occurred yesterday to the west
bound express, due here this morning.
The accident occurred at the crossing Of
Mattawa river, about fifteen miles west
of Fort William. Fires had destroyed
the trestle work underneath the bridge,
and when in the center of the structure
it gave way and the engine and four
cars piled into the river. The diner, one
first-class car and the sleeper remained
on the track.
The wrecked cars soon took fire from
the burning bridge and almost the entire
train was burned. The train was not a
very heavy one, but it is feared other
deaths have occurred besides those re-
ported. As far as can be learned here
the dead and injured are:
Dead-Mrs. Barker, drowned; first-class
passenger en- route to Elkhorn, Man,
from Ontario. Express Messenger
"Murt" Brown of Toronto: missing, and
believed to be at the bottom of the river.
Injured-Fireman Whitehead: may not
recover. Engineer Elmes, slightly in
jured. Mrs. Bickie of Vaudeville, Mich,
eli route to Red Deer.
Several others were slightly injured.
The train was in charge of Conductor
Dawson, and was running at a very
high speed when the accident occurred.
The body of Mrs. Barker was found
some distance down the river. All the
mail matter, including that from Montre-
al and Toronto, posted on Thursday, was
buried, as was also express matter and
be- ggE re.

TIL Err BOAT UPSET.
Four Out of n Party of Six Are
Drowned.

Brewsters, n. Y, June 10.-Four out
of a party of six were drowned this after
noon by upsetting a boat on the Ullry
Foster reservoir. A party consisting of
Bessie and Maggie Blainey, Kate and
Marty McClusker, Thomas Scanlon and
Patrick Marooney went out for a row
on the reservoir. everything went smooth
ly for a while, when the boat overturned,
throwing all the occupants into the water.
Kate McClusker caught hold of the up
turned boat and held fast. Patrick Aspen
and Thomas Donohue, who were in a
boat some distance away, rescued her.
Only one other of the party was to be
seen. This was Patrick Marooney. who
was the only member of the party who
ccrld swim. He had started for the
shore and was picked up by Thomas
Lynch. In vain the rescuers looked for
the rest of the party, but not one of
them could be seen. The two young
men who had rescued Miss McClusker
finally reached the shore and told their

son Bay and the Gulf II Mexico.
Washington, June II. Representative
McCleary of Minnesota, who is a men,
Der of the committee on railroads and ca
nails. has laid the foundation of a scheme
to connect the Gulf of Mexico with Hud-
son bay. This is a project which has
caused more or less discussion in the
Northwest, and surveys for other pur-
poses have been used in making computa-
tons as to the feasibility of the plan.
Mr.. McCleary now proposes that the,
United States government shall, in con-
nection with the Canadian government,
make a preliminary survey to ascertain
whether, in the first place, the scheme is
feasible, and, if so, what the probable
cost will be. Mr.. McCleary's plan is TO
have the survey made by the way of the
Minnesota river, whose headwaters and
those of the Red River of the North near
ly join through Big Stone and Traverse
lakes. In high water boats of considera>
BILE size have crossed from one lake to the
other, and it would not require a very
large canal to connect the waters of the
Red and Minnesota rivers.
