BIG CROWD ON EADs BRIDGE.
Thousands Enjoyed the Cool River
Breezes From the Structure.

Almost panic was caused on the Eads
Bridge last night by cry of fire which
startled the thousands of women and chill
passage to spend the evening there in the
cool river breeze. There were 1000 persons
on the east end of the bridge when the
alarm was shouted. But for the prompt
work Of Waterman Grant and Bridge Of
ficer Bowling many accidents might have
happened.
The fire was caused. 1t is believed, by
spark from an engine falling In crack
way above. The wood was dry as finder.
and kindled readily. As soon as Watch-
man Grant heard the cry he ran to the
spot. and with one bucket Of water ex-
tinguished the blaze.
The Terminal Association threw open the
bridge last night at half past 6 o'clock and
left the passage free until II p. m. 1t had
done the same sam in former years I for the
ment districts, but last year failed to ex-
tend the privilege because repairs were
under way. Nearly 5000 people awaited
themselves of the opportunity to sit in q
ana the bridge officers said that the bene-
ficiaries would be more and more numerous
as the week advances.
There were many families of five or six
children under the Escort Of one Of their
elders, and these all made such demands on
the supply Of ice water which had been pro-
vfded that within one hour and a half the
three barrels had been emotied. The chill.
dren played about and watched the river at
first, but by 9 o'clock many had fallen
asleep. But there were others of maturer
many a DARK corner on the wide platforms
there were couples who seemed to have
forgotten whether they were up in the air
or in elysium. Several of these remained
cheerfully in spite of the protests of Watch-
man Grant, who told them to move on.

HEAT VICTIM LOST
AT CITY HOSPITAL.
George Gross, Received There
Wednesday, Has Mysteriously
Disappeared, Leaving His
Clothes Behind.

The City Hospital authorities are at loss
to account for the disappearance of George
Gross, 63 years old. baker, who was taken
to the hospital Wednesday evening suffer-
ing from heat prostration, and who is now
missing.
His absence can be accounted for on the
theory that he is dead, and that, because
of the confusion caused by the many
deaths from the heat on Wednesday, all
record Of the disposal made of his body is
lost, or that In delirium he escaped from
the hospital and is now wandering about
the city. His body is not at the Inorgue or
at the City Hospital deadhouse.
Gross is a widower and lived with his
children. Two OF his daughters called at
the hospital to see him yesterday after
noon. 1t was then that he was found to be
missing.
The records at the hospital show that
George Gross. 63 years old, a baker" was
taken to the hospital at SIS p. m. Wednes-
day from Eighteenth street and Cass ave-
nue. Night Clerk Hosfeldt remembers
Gross. and says that the latter told him
that he lived at Eighteenth and Cass ave-
nue. and conducted q bakery on that corner.
In the heat pavilion at the hospital the
physicians do not remember Gross by name.
Between and p. m. Wednesday cases
were received at the heat pavilion two and
three at q time and every few minutes.

MILK FAMINE is THREATENED.
Drought Held Responsible for the
Scarcity of Dairy Products.

A milk famine Is threatened. The small
dealers in milk and butter in st. Louis are
the greatest sufferers. The large dealers Sc
cured their present supply by taking more
milk than they needed early in the season.
This extra milk they poured in the cutters
or made butter of It,. giving or throwing
away the SKINNED milk.
The cause is the drought. The pastures
have been burned up. With no fresh grass
in the summer time mich cows do not do
well. Cattle have to eat dry food. and they
stand and pant and drink all the water they
can get. There Is no substance in the dried
grass and mich cows give no results on
dry feed in hot weather: The various crops
have been so damaged by the drought that
the famine may continue through the win
ter. Corn will be poor. the clover hay crop
will be light. Illinois and Missouri farmers
will have to buy hay.
Since May butter has gone UP cents
pound. Creamery butter is now % cents a
pound wholesale. Dealers look for It to adj
mand, too. has been greater this summer for
milk and milk products than for years. The
demand for ice-cream has almost doubled
