Senator Taiiafero is' Visiting Tn Pen- sacoia--H. c. Smith Dies At
 Marfanna of Infurfea.

Pensacola, Fla, Dec, I---(speciaI)-- Although trains were delayed for many hours on the P. and A division of the Louisville and Nashville, due to the burning of the trestle spanning Chipola river. 100 miles east of this city, all fretghts and passengers are now ar irving and departing from the city on time.
 Business had become congested, ow- ing to the delay of over twelve hours and the trainmen are just getting matters strengthened out
 This delay was the first to be ex- perienced in this division since 1s0s when much of the trestle of the Es- cambia bay and smaller trestles were carried away by the hurricane. It is now the belief that the burning of the Chipola trestle was due to coals from the fire box of mixed train. which passed over, the trestle bound for River Junction about o'clock Sunday morning.
 This was the last train to pass over. and the fire was discovered an hour afterwards by a west bound passenger train. the engineer bringing his train to & stop only q short distance from the burning bridge.
