Catastrophe as Seen By an Eye Wit
nezs-The Scene HeartrsndInE
at the Hotel Disu-

Hogansburg, n. Y, Sept About
noon yesterday two south spans OF
the international bridge Of the New
York & Ottawa railroad, now under
construction across the St Lawrence
river, about three miles above St
Regis Indian village, fell without
warning with 60 men at work on the
bridge, all being thrown into the river
some 60 feet below. Over 80 were
picked mp and taken to Cornwall hos
pitaI, where IS have since died and p
are now missing. The bridge consists
Of three spans, Of which two were
completed and the third was nearly
completed when the south pier gave
way at its foundation, causing both
spans to fall into 90 feet of water, tax
ing their load Of human freight with
them. The bridge that gave way was
being built across the St Lawrence
river at the foot Of Long Saulte rapids,
near ReinhardFs island The water
at this point is known TO be as swift
as in any part Of the river. The i'm
mediate cause Of the disaster and the
giving way Of the span of the bridge
seems to have been from the washing
away Of one Of the large piers The
latest information makes it probable
that the death list will reach 30. As
far as can be learned, 81 men were on
the pay roll, Of whom 81 reported for
work yesterday morning. Of this list
only 80 have actually been accounted
for.

the workmen when there came a fear
full crash. Two spans of the bridge
collapsed and the immense mass OF
timber and iron dropped Then he
saw bodies come to the surface and the
work Of rescue began. This was hope
lessly inadequate, there being only q
few boats in the vicinity, and very few
men would undertake to swim out in
to the turbulent waters. Many who
might have been saved were drowned
before help could reach them Man

were in such a condition that many

THE RIGHT MAN FOR THE PLACE.

n MONO the members of the California delega- / ton who have attained distinguished rank and prestige in the House of Representatives is the Hon. John A. Barham of the First District, who is now serving his second term and has been re- nominated in recognition of his services his sttuents and to the State and the nation
 While his career in the House has been short in comparison with that of many members from the Eastern States, his personal strength worker and debater has been such to win for him the chair nanship of the Mileage Committee, and membership the Arid Lands Committee, the Committee Interstate and Foreign Commerce, and on the sub- committee having charge of the bill providing for the construction of the Nicaragua canal.
 In the course of the Congressional labors by which he achieved these honors he has accomplished much for the State and has been all times active and jealous in looking after its interests. Among the measures of special benefit to California which he urged in the House bills making available $25o,- GOO appropriated by Congress for the improvement of the Sacramento and the Feather Rivers, appro- priating $3ooooo for Eureka harbor bills for the i'm provement of Napa River, Petaluma Creek and es- tablishing life-saying station at Point Arena He also introduced and had favorably reported bill create department of mines and mining under charge of a secretary of Cabinet rank.
 As Mir. Barham has become identified with the Nicaragua canal bill in the House, his return to Congress IS matter of prime importance to the State. It is not too much to say that his defeat would be taken by Congress as an evidence that Cali ornians not favorable the construction of the canal by the Government as MT. Barhams bill pro vides Certainly member of the House, no matter how much inclined he might be to promote the enterprise, could give it anything like the val uabe service which be counted from MT Barham.
 It is further to be noted that Mr. Barham is due the adoption of the amendment to the bill of Sen ators Morgan and White for the settlement of the debts of the Central Pacific road, which provides that unless the settlement shall be perfected within one year from the passage of the bill the President shall at once foreclose the mortgage. This amend thoroughly protects the interests of the Govern ment and materially improves the bill of the Demo cratic Senators.
 So excellent have been the services of Mr. Bar ham, and so valuable to the whole State IS his pres ence in Congress, that his defeat would be loss to every interest which California has at Washington Fortunately there is danger of his defeat He re- ceived his renominaton from the Republican conven- ton unanimously and all reports justify the predic ton that his reelection will be given by an over whclming majority.

SAN FRANClSCOB INON. l, Ao0o.
 To the Editor of The Call: In prom inent article in the Bulletin of to-day the statement is made that Father Yorke's remarks "are not sanctioned by the church." Please let me state as a Catholic layman that the Catholic church is not In politics. Father Yorke two years ago made an earnest. de- termined and successful fight against the A. P A. faction in their attack on Catholics. As the result of that fight MT. Phelan was elected Mayor of our city by the votes of all right-thinking citizens. The fight that Father Yorke made then was for principle--the fight he makes now is for principle. MT. Phelan. throwing aside principle for votes" placed men in nomination who by their votes or their tndorsement af1owed a leaning to those who claimed Catholics were not entitled to all the rights and privileges of American citi- zens. The same reason that caused Father Yorke to enter the lists against bigotry and intolerance then actuate him to-day Don't let the public be misled Father Yorke is well known by the people of this city and by the Catholics of the whole United States as a good priest-and good citizen. They know that when he denounces fraud and hypocrisy he is right and that he can count upon their support. Money, position, rewards have. no temptation for him. The record of hay ing done his duty is the only reward he claims. This he has done in the past and is doing now and will always con- tinue to do. Had Mayor Phelan cared more for principle than votes he would not now be driven to the corner he Is in. I, as an American citizen, see nothing to condemn In the position taken by Father Yorke, on the con- trary heartily approve of his past and present course: I feel confident that the support which was given to him two years ago when he fought bigotry

 District Attorney, Barclay Henley, some time

NN AYOR PHELAN'S Mexican candidate for District Attorney, Barclay Henley, some time ago remarked in card to the public that the story of his connection with Maximians Govern ment was an ancient tale Every time my name was presented as candidate he said, the affair referred to by The Call was charged against me- and every time: was elected" But, added the Mexican can didate q shall have more to say about these matters further on" :.
 The period designated by Maxiiniliahs old subject as further on has now arrived. We are wthina few days of election. What has become of the things Henley was going to say about his Mexican citizen ship? Is he playing the old dodge of a who is full of defenses but busy to make them, or who hopes that the people will forget his bluff - Mayor Phean's Mexican candidate may have been elected on other occasions, but unless he explains these matters he is going to be defeated this time How about Maxnilian,: Count Henley?
