He has TeIegraphed to have the Body
Brought Here at Once-Crane was
Overloaded and Fell 100 Feet Upon a
Barge.


. In giving, ancaccount of the bridge
accident atPittsburg yesterday morn
ing, the New 6York papers give the
name of William P. Kempton, in the
list Of dead. arr
sshdyiet Kempton, of Davidson
avenue, told a News reporter the
account given fits his son and he is
sureQthat HIS son was the man describ-
ed. Mr. TX compton was a structural
iron worker and was working in the
new caahnta1ever bridge being construct
ed 6ver1thei Menongahela river for the
Wabash railroad. With about IA other
men he was on a large travelling crane
on the Water street side of the bridge
when it suddenly snapped, carrying
all to the water, 100 feet below. The
traveller is supposed to having been
overweighted with iron and materia
it was carrying for the men to work
with. A load was being taken up
from a barge in the river directly
under the crane. Some eight men
were on the barge working. Three
were killed by the wreckage. They
were crushed almost beyond -identifi-
cation.
The traveller, which projects beyond
the bridge gave away and tons of
iron and steel fell Oh the barges. The
vessels were sunk and many of the
bodies were pinned down by the
wreckagee. Divers will be required to
reach some Of them.
Nine men were killed outright and
six others injured. Mr.. Kempton was
one 81 the killed. The United States
Snag Boat E. A. Woodruff was near
the new bridge and its crew began the
work3Ho rescue. Workers on the other
end 81 the bridge stopped work and
assiated. All men were employed by
vA.s Bridge Company:
Mr.. Schuyler Kempton is certain
that the name given is his sons and
has telegraphed to have the body sent
home. AS yet he has received no par
ticulars as to whether his son was
killed outright or died of his injuries.
The dead man was twenty-five years
old and was very well known here.
He was single and is survived by three
sisters. MI. Kempton says his son
belongs to Bridge Builders Union

PLENTY OF THEM.

Nathan Strauss, who writes things for the papers. says the Democratic Party is well off for principles" Of course 1t is. Our Party has principles to burn. We've more kinds and varieties of 'em than any party whatever, since the Popu- lists went out of business. Our mainest trouble is that we can't get all our prin- cilples Into one corral. Some of them are forever getting out and running wild. That causes trouble. It keeps part of the Democracy so busy trying to round up all our stray principles that we win no victoBies. There is such a thing as having too much capital.
 It is different with the Republicans. They have no principles . or principle either, for that matter. They have an object in place of it. That object is to get the offices. It may not be worthy object, but it is a binding one, and that counts for a great deal with them. If there were no offices there would be no Republicans. Likewise, there would be no Republicans but for the hope of office. It is that hope that keeps them together Without 1t they would go to pieces like an exploded fire-cracker. They love pie and know how to get it, mostly. Oh, yes the Democratic Party has plenty of prin. ciples. We could really spare a few.
