MANY CHILDREN DROWN
PERISH BY COLLAPSE OF OLD
SUSPENSION BRIDGE AT
CHARLESTON, w. VA.
NUMBER OF VICTIMS NOT KNOWN
eTRUcTURE DROPS FIFTY FEET
TO THE RIVER, CRUSHING
THE ICE IN ITS FALL.

Charleston, w. Va, Dec. 16.-While
crowded with people, including many
children on their way to school, the
old suspension brideN which connects
East and West Charleston collapsed
during the day, turning turtle as it
fell, throwing twenty to thirty people
and half a dozen teams to the ice fifty
feet below. The ice broke under the
weight and it is feared that the num-
ber who were swept under the ice to
their deaths will not be known for a
long time. Two dead bodies were
taken out within short time and a
number of injured were assisted to
the shore by rescuers who were
promptly on the scene. Planks were
thrown on the broken ice and over
these the rescuers crawled with ropes
which were used to pull the injured
and dead to the shore.
News of the accident spread rapidly
and the banks were soon lined with
frantic people, who feared that friends
or relatives had gone down with the
bridge to their deaths.
The work of rescue was pushed Wig
orously, the United States engineers
being appealed to for help, while river
men were among the earliest help
ers.
The bridge was built fifty-two years
ago and during the past few months
there has been considerable doubt re-
garding it's safety, heavy traffic being
kept off on a number Of occasions.
Two large cables Of the bridge were
pulled from their moorings, fitting the
floor and sliding people and wagons
off. Later the strain snapped one OF
the cables on the lower side, the floor
turning completely over as it dropped.
All the rescued were numbed and
chilled and suffering from the shock.
The fire department did good work
and the steamer Baxter broke ice in
order to get small boats up. The
crash was heard all over Charleston
and in the country
During the Civil war the cable Of
this bridge was cut by General Wise
when ne evacuated Charleston, the
bridge at the same time being par
TALLY burned. The same cable was
afterward spliced and has been ia use
ever since.

Attack on Vessel Made in Face of Sc

Attack on Vessel Made in Face of Sc
rious Obstacles.
Toxic, Dec. 16.-The partially sue
cessful torpedo attack on the Seyas.
topol was made in the face of almost
dnsurmountable obstacles and writes
another inspiring story of the splendid
bravery of number of officers.
The entire crews of the torpedo
boat destroyers and torpedo boats
volunteered for the attack, counting
death in their efforts to destroy the
only floating Russian battleship at
Port Arthur.
Facing driving snow storm and
heavy seas the f1otilla separated and,
under individual commanders, the yes.
sells attacked independently. The
decks of the destroyers and torpedo
boats were coated with ice and, the
men suffered acutely from cold.
The Russians resorted to the most
extreme precautions to protect the Sc
vastopol. They dropped torpedo nets,
which shielded the bows of the war
ship, and the Sevastopol was further
protected by specially constructed
wooden boom, the framework of which
was composed Of iron bound logs and
cables and heavy chains itterlaced
and entangled From the surface of
this boom hung deep curtain made Of ;
torpedo nets taken from the sunken |
battleships, the purpose of which was
to catch and destroy the torpedoes
and their mechanism.
The Japanese probably refrained
from attempting to cut or Jump the
boom, a plan demonstrated by the
British, but the torpedo boats and de-
stroyers evidently forced the open
ngs which the Russians had left so as {
% allow communication with the har-
