A BRIDGE GAVE WAY
Many People Upon Il Fell
Into a Greek.
SEVERAL ARE DROWNED.
Some of Those Who Were Rescued
Were More or Less Injured.

LONG ISLAND CITY. Jan. l3.-An lmpro-
vised bridge over Newtown creek at
Meeker avenue, this city. collapsed last
night, precipitating q number Of pedes-
trians, variously estimated from so to IS.
into the water. The greater number Of
these were rescued or reached shore
through their own efforts. some in an in
jured condition. Five persons are re-
ported missing, and IL is believed they
were drowned. The bridge was Is feet
high and the water where the accident
occurred Is nine feet deep.
The missing men are Patrick Briody, H.
Marckey, George Mills, Michael Nc
Gurkey and James Smith. Five men, in
jured or suffering from shock and ex-
posure, were taken to the hospital.
Bridge Was Overcrowded.
The accident was due to the overcrowd-
ing Of the bridge. The section of the
bridge that fell was 80 feet long. The
drow on the Brooklyn side was open, as a
tug was trying to force a schooner
through. 1t was a few minutes before 8
o'clock, and the bridge was crowded with
men from nearly all factories near by
anxious to get to their homes in Brooklyn.
Suddenly there was a cracking Of tim
bers, and the bridge broke I'm two. The
men made an effort to get of, but the
jam on the shore end
Prevented Their Escape.
They fell into the water in heap. and
then began wild struggle for life. Some
clambered upon the wrecked bridge, while
others swan for shore.
Most of the unfortunates were rescued
by boats and tugs. Some were drawn by
ropes thrown out to them from the shore.
When they reached land they were hur-
ried to saloon and filled with stimu-
lants. The bridge tender, who witnessed
the affair, says he does not believe that
any one was drowned.
The search for bodies N~sss kept up till a
late hour, but none were discovered.

A Worlds Fair Calendar.

Anyone who has ever seen one of the
Excepting Everiastingly At 1t" Calendars
Issued by N. w. Aver Il Son, Newspaper
Advertising Agents, Philadelp hia, is ever
afterward very hard to please. That for
1894 Is a rare combination OF beauty and
utility-lsrge enough to be seen, hand
some enough to be admired sad sensible
anough to be respected. He would indeed
be queer person who would be unwill-
ing to keep steady company" with 1t
fora year. We would call this "World's IS
Fair edition" because OF its numerous
references to that wonderful event. It's
ingenious suggestions on this subject will
doubtless be helpful to many who visited
"rhe White City" II is easy to credit
the statement that an increasing number
OF these calendars is sold each year. The
price delivered (and we'll deiiyered), post
paid to any address is 25 cents-evidently
a tariff for protection only, as at this
figure there can be no profit in it for the
publishers.

apart of these bolts had better DO uni
