FOUR DEAD, SIX SERIOUSLY HURT

In Addition Twelve Others Received

Accident Revealed Another Amerl-
can Hero in the Person ola scow Boy.
New York, April 1.-THE temporary
superstructure of the big Willis ave-
nue. bridge, now being built over the
Harlem river, collapsed yesterday af-
ternOon, killing four men and seriously
injuring six. one of whom may die
Twelve or more other workmen also
received injuries of more or less serl-
GUS nature. The dead are: William
Delaney, Go years old; Walter Delaney,
son of the above, 20 years old; Thomas
Grady, mason's helper; Lewis Beattie.
Charles Pursley, 81 years, had his skull
fractured and will probably die.
The accident was caused by too great
weight being put on the travelling
derrick that crossed the superstructure.
The superstructure connected the
north shore sustaining wall with
pier, and was flimsy affair, stretching
300 feet across deep water, built in
three sections. one above another, to
height of about go feet. Over this
a massive travelling crane, or carrier,
was operated Twenty-Five to thirty
men were employed on the structure
when the collapse occurred. A heavy
load of steel beams was being sent out
on the crane, when the timbers gave
way and the entire structure wen,
down with crash As 1t went down
the upright crashed into the workmen,
striking the Delaneys, Grady and Beat
tie and killing them instantly Many
Of the men were carried down in the
wreck. Only few succeeded in get
ting to the pier, the majority either
falling into the water or into the
tangle of iron and woodwork
The work of rescue was not long in
beginning. Several tugboats put over
to the scene of the disaster, and a
number of rowboats also did excel
lent service.
James Levin, one of the workers,
was caught in the wreck beneath the
surface and was drowning when
fellow workman, Edward Brooks, him
self painfully injured, dived for him
and brought him to the surface.
s. G. Wolf, foreman, was caught in
a similar way and would undoubtedly
have been drowned but for the bravery
of boy employed on scow, who went
over the side into the water In a trice.
He saw VOLTS danger, and by heroic
work got him out. and to the surface,
where men in ro~boats took care of
him. The same boy also rescued
Thomas Luckey, who was also caught
In the debris and was in danger OF
drowning.
The contract for the erection of the
bridge was originally awarded to the
Leonard Foley Construction company
and by them almost Immediately as
signed to John P. Rodgers & Son
The contract for the bridge proper waa
