Accident at Quebec Costs Lives of
Scores-Dominion Authorities
Will Make Rigid In

BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
QUEBEC, Aug. sO-Although twenty
four hours have elapsed since the Quebec
bridge crashed into the ST. Lawrence the
three score of bridge workers are still
held in the meshwork of debris at the
bottom of the river.
A roll call held this afternoon confirmed
the early estimate of the loss of life
Seventy mine men failed to answer to
their names and were not among the in
jured at the Tevis hospital. Fifteen
bodies lie at the morgue awaiting the re"
suit of the coroner's inquest.
OF the total of seventy -nine dead or
missing sixteen killed were American
mechanics. Some of the bodies of the
unfortunate men can be seen below the
surface of the water tightly wedged IN
an inextricable network Of steel, where
1t is utterly impossible to reach them.
At daybreak half a dozen tugs began a
search of the st. Lawrence river for the
victims of last nights catastrophe. The
roll of death caused by the collapse of the
great cantilever bridge numbers at least
seventy-hve and may reach eighty"five
Up to an early hour today less than
twenty bodies had been recovered
The terrific drop of the great steel struc-
ture from 1870 feet above the surface of the
river crushed the bodies of many of the
workmen in a frightful manner, and it is
feared many will never be found Many
of the dead were Americans brought here
by the Phoenix Bridge company of Penn
sylvania, which had the contract for the
iron work on the bridge.
Among the known dead are B. A. Gan
sci, general foreman for the Phoenix
Bridge compan; Chief Engineer Birks,
Fireman Davis of the bridge switch en-
engine: John W. HALEY, fireman.; Jim
Idah, Indian foreman; about thirty
Caughnawaga Indians employed as labor
ers; Victor, James and Henry Hardy Of
New Liverpool Quebec, brothers; Will
fred Proulex of New Liverpool, Quebec,
and Seephrian La France of Quebec.
Early this morning rowboats were sent
out to examine the superstructure show
ing above the water near the shore to as
certain If any of the workmen were i'm
prisoned in the mass of twisted iron
work None was found alive. Just below
the surface of the water two bodies were
seen, but it will be impossible to reach
them until the tide goes out.

WHEN MONEY SHALL BE AS FREE AS
WATER.

w. R. Hearst, editor Examiner, y
Dear Sir have always been an
admirer of your editorials and ap-
prove of the spirit of sympathy
toward the oppressed. In the arti-
Gle IN reference to the question,
will Man Ever Become Indifferent
to Money!" You show the true
spirit by asking the question, ''Did
you ever see man steal a bottle of
water?" which means that money
will be as free as water, compare
lively, when the human race have
been developed to the fullest de-
gree.
Note the effect Of the present
SYSTEM, where millions Of dollars is
boarded UP in banks and millions of
poor people are starving for the
want of money to buy food.
See the mad rush of spectators
accumulating vast fortunes regard
less of honest principles or the suf-
fering Of the poor man who feeds
and clothes both the rich and the
poor. This is not equality. Let the
producer wake up, organize your
colonies with clearing houses, issue
to yourselves certificates of credit
on all of your products Of labor. If
you have house worth a thousand
dollars you are entitled to thou
sand dollars in certificates Of credit,
less the cost Of printing the bills
and the insurance of the security,
every man in the colonies having
pledged himself to accept them for
the products Of his labor. If you
will follow this plan you will realize.
that you are using your own credit,
based on your own security and not
using some one else's credit based
on gold at a high rate of interest.
Thus the system of greed would be
dead forever. You could then truth
fully say that money is as free as
water and that mankind have
become Indifferent to money" You
will then inherit the whole earth
and the soul Of righteousness shall
live forever and truth shall ever and
truth shall be your brother and love
shall be your. God.

then there will be plenty Of time to
formulate plans and work them out.
| This will no doubt meet with OBJ
jections. ! expect that, for you know
T that there are always those who do
not believe in such things. They
remind me of the man who didn't
believe in missions, when his pastor
asked him for money for foreign
missions he always said, II do not
believe in it because we have too
many heathens at home.' so the
time came when the pastor asked
him for an offering for home mis-
sions and he met the same reply,
Don't believe in it, because they
have plenty of chances here now"
so one day the pastor and his board
concluded that they needed a new
fence around their grave yard, and
the pastor said, now here is some
thing that Brother A. will surely be
willing to help us with. So he went
to Brother A. and said now Brother
here is something that is neither
foreign or home missions and we
want your help. mo. sir" came
the reply, Il don't believe in it, be-
cause those who are in there can't
get out and those who are out don't
want to get in, and therefore don't
believe in it."

our good citizens will take this
matter up and remove this blot from

author was supposed to haye preceded
this with long preliminary course In
