William scroggin. a farmer living

False Work is Carried Out.
The collapse of the bridge was
caused by the rapid rise OF the river.
The water rose during the day at the
rate of almost one foot an hour, and
debris carried down the stream by
the flood struck the false work Of the
bridge and caused its collapse. A
large tree trunk struck the false
work just before the bridge fell.
The accident occurred just at
nlBhLLaIi When the men were prepaF-
ing to abandon their work.
AS a result the work OF rescuing
those who were thrown into the wat
err and caught in the mass OF the
twisted iron and steel was greatly
retarded. The second span OF the
bridge was being erected and It was
this that fell with the bridge travel
er The bodies Of four OF those killed
were found floating on the surface
Of the water entangIed in the bent
and twisted girders and iron work,
but the others have not been found
Many of the men were caught mile
or more down the river before they
were rescued.

FAILURE TO PAY FOR ORES
Declares the Rich Miner Should Wait
for Cash.

DENVER, Col, Dec. 11.-Franklin
Guiterman, general manager in the
west for the American Smelling and
Refining comps ny, today denied the
charge that the smelling company
was seeking to retard the progress of
the Nevada mines by refusing to pay
cash for ore mined in that state. Mr..
Guiterman said that it was true that
high grade ore from Goldfield and
other camps was not being paid for
in full by his company, but explain
ed that in the present condition of
the finances of the country the smelt-
ing company finds it impossible to
do differently.
Some of the high grade ore from
Nevada runs as high as 100000
car in value, he said, and should
the smelling company pay cash for
all of this their funds would be
quickly depleted and every other
mining section of the country would
feel the effects. Cash was being paid
for all low grade and medium grade
ore from Nevada and other mining
camps, he said, and 25 per cent of
the value of high grade ore was paid
on delivery. The balance on high
grade ore was paid in IS days, or
when the ore is finally treated. The
rich miner, said Mr.. Guiterman,
could afford to wait better than the
miner in medium circumstances, and
the latter was the person the smelt-
ing company was seeking to protect.
