to plug up these holes. These bags of
sand being piled along the dumproad
frightened Rooms team aud they
plunged into the river on the opposite
side taking the mail wagon with them.
Mr.. Roen saw the catastrophe coming
and spraug off his wagon just as it
went over. Workmen on the roadway
ran to the assistance of the untortu-
nate mail carrier and soon had the

SIX PERSONS DROWN
LAUNCH COLLIOES WITH BARGE
IN DELAWARE RIVER.
Launch Tried to Pass Under the
Stern of a Tugboat Which Was
Towing a Barge-Three Rescued

A launch containing nine men, all 81
Philadelphia, collided with barge III the
Delaware River, off Beverly, y. j., Sun
day night, resulting in the drowning OF
six of the occupants OF the little boat.
The other three were rescued by the crew
of the tugboat Bristol, which was towing
the barge when the accident happened.
The dead are William Winch, John Ell
lis. Samuel Heron, Norman Delany and
James Yonkers.
Those rescued are Capt John Winch,
the owner of the launch; W. +. Russell
and J. Rutherford.
The launch was hired by seven of the
men. most Of whom lived in the northeast
ern part of Philadelphia. The elder
Winch took his son along TO assist him
in running the boat. The day was spent
near Croydon, OH the Pennsylvania side
of the river. The start home was made
