The loss of property at Bergen is estimated at ethan S55,000, not in- cluding the little depot, nine box and fiat cars and other damage sustained by the Frisco Railroad The depot was of small value but there were a number of section houses which will have to be rebuilt. The crews of the two passenger trains and a freight train on the Frisco Railroad, which passed Bergen shortly after the tor- nado, was worthy of comment. Though one of the passenger trains was a fast and through train, the crew re- mained long enough at Bergen to as- sist in placing aboard those who were in a desperate condition and at the same time giving some little assist ance in quieting the excitement Con ductor Baldwin, who was in charge of the train, wired to the superintend- ent's off1ce in the city that the train would be delayed more than an hour at Bergen, not only to cut off trees from the track but to give some relief to the people who were in distress.
 The government has sent out several men to make investigations as to the tornado and make maps of the sec tion devastated in order to get some Information for future prognostica- tions. The weather bureau man of Birmingham, W. F. Lehman. went out
  bertville for day or two for the pur- pose of getting accurate descriptions of the storm. how 1t came up, and what 1t looked like, the noise 1t made and other information that might be guide in the future forecasting. Not. withstanding that all reports as to past weather stipulates that this must not be taken as forecast as to what is likely to happen an idea is given however. by the mention of the fact that such storm did take place as to what can happen.
 Inasmuch as Bergen is the junction point on the Frisco of the line which runs to the Empire coal held 1t IS not improbable that the little town may be rebuilt. The majority of the peo- pie who lived at this place were either railroad employees or miners. A few stores only were conducted at Dora, a mile and a half away.

THREE MORE VICTIMS
fcontinued from Page 1.l

reported by persons coming into the town yesterday from the rural deliv- cries. but the reports were both mea- gre and uncertain. Destruction in the country was also difficult to learn about. It is feared that the desolatton in the country will be much worse than was at first believed. This is the more to be deplored because the ser vice of relief there will be more tardy as we'll as more tedious. It Is expected though, that survivors and their neigh bors will bring the injured into cities and will make petitions for what they need of food and medical attention.
 Both Gadsden and Albertville are frightened tonight by the fear of an- other storm. During the afternoon, a storm was imminent heavy clouds coming over both cities and many suf- fered with terror and anxiety. The storm broke tonight, heavy rain fall. ing. but is again threatening and 1t may be violent. though not with the fury of the cyclone. Indications arc that it Is only a summer squall and that 1t will not last long, but general uneasiness is felt
 During the early part of the night, the lightning and the deep rumble of thunder, held many of the people in an almost uncomfortable expectance Of danger, and 1t Is not improbable that 1t will have physical effect upon some of those who are injured or i'll.
 It is estimated that there were at least 10000 visitors to Afbertville to- day. nearly all of them curious spect> ators of the wrecked city. though some of these who arrived have come to work with the citizens.
 storm at Camden.
 Camden. April 56-(SpeciaD-Yes- nd a night one or the severest and most destructive rain storms in the history of the country visited this section. While 1t IS not possible at this time to give anything but meager accounts. still enough has been learned to show that the damage was very great.
 The most destructive work of the storm occurred at Gees Bend, where two negroes were killed and quite number were seriously wounded by falling buildings. Also about twenty five or thirty negro cabins were blown down on the Pettway place, and the old Pettway storehouse, now owned by A. s. Vandegraft, was totally destroyed. Pursely Creek near here Is four feet higher than. it has ever been before in its history. Early this morning it could easily be seen from here and it is still very high.
 IncalculabIe damage has been done to the tracks of the Camden branch of the L.. and N. Railroad. Several miles of track is completely washed away and a force of about fifty hands are at work. but it is thought that 1t will be several days before the Camden train can reach Nadawah. The wires of the Western Union are intact from here to Nadawah. Pine Barren Creek Is very high and still rising. but it will be several days before 1t can be learned what damage has been done by this creek. Quite a number of bridges have been washed away and great damage done to the crops and lands in washing up the prepared soil, planted crops and fertilizer.

Emergency Currency
Bill Is introduced.

Washington, Jan. SENATOR
Aldrich's emergency currency bill
was introduced in the senate to-
day.
Speaker Cannon approves the
bill as it is drawn. It's expected
that the senate will pass it with
out any great delay, and that the
house will then put it through
under such pressure as the house
rules make possible.
The bill provides for the issue of
an emergency currency to the
amount of 100000, if neces-
sary, subject to a tax to compel
it's retirement that runs as high as
6 per cent. The currency to be
issued for emergency purposes will
be secured by deposit of approved
state, county, municipal and rail
road bonds, including Grst mort
gage bonds of railroads which have
never defaulted in their interest
payments.
Banks will be given the liberty
of withdrawing such emergency
circulation as rapidly as they de
sire. This is regarded as neces-
sary to prevent imitation.
The applications of banks 10
issue circulation will be passed en-
by board consisting of the secre-
tary of the treasury, the comptrol-
Ter of the currency and the treasur-
or of the United States. This
board will pass on the securities
banks offer as the basis for emerg-
ency circulation.

Cars Thrown
Long Distance.
Trestle COIlapses And Tourists
Train Goes to Bottom.

Dallas, Ga, Jan. Fifty peo-
pie were injured, three or four of
them fatally, and one killed about
2o'clock this afternoon, when the
third section of the Florida Limit
ed, packed with tourists from
Ohio and other western states, was
plunged to the bottom of a gulch
by the collapse Of the Copper Mine
trestle, midway between here and
Hiram, Ga.
The train was going at a high
rate of speed when it reached the
bridge. The engine had almost
reached the other side and the
whole length of the train was on
the trestle, which is 200 feet long,
when the collapse came.
TREsTLE BREAKS EVERYWHERE.
Then the trestle seemed to break
at all points at the same time, and
the whole structure went down
with mighty smash, a distance
Of many feet to the bottom.
The engine, six Pullmans and a
diner were tossed through the air
ike feathers. One Car was thrown
a distance of 80 or 40 feet, and all
presented the appearance of old
Junk. The first two Pullmans re-
NAMED Joined together when they
hit the bottom of the gulch. and
the two rear ones were connected
when they plunged into the little
stream. But the others, and the
engine took their own course.
They were scattered distance Of
from IS to 70 yards. On every
side was the Wreckage. One Pull
man was propelled through the
air from the trestle to the embank-
ment on the opposite side, and
from it were taken six badly in.
jured people, several Of whom it is
believed will die.
DINER BREAKS HALE IN TWO.
The. diner presented typical
sight of the wreck. 1t was slashed
half in two, just as clearly as if a
knife had done the work. Pas
sengers pronounced it the marvel
Gus thing in their experience that
no deaths resulted.
In the engine when the drop
came there were Fireman Rcece
Morris, Engineer Jim Edwards, Of
Atlanta, and Chief Engineer
Knapp. Edwards was fearfully
mashed and internally injured.
Knapp was suffering from a mash
ed foot, and the fireman was also
hurt. 4 few hours after the wreck
Edwards died from his injuries,
and it was reported that Chief
Engineer Knapp was fatally in
iured.
