Buffalo, n. Y.-Between fifteen and
twenty persons were drowned and a
number injured Sunday night, when
fifty-foot dock at Eagle Park, Grand
Island. Niagara River, collapsed under
the weight Of $50 persons, precipitat-
ing them into twelve feet of water.
Up to midnight eight bodies had
been recovered, of whom six were
identified.
The eXcursionists were preparing to
return TO Buffalo after an outing at
the park, and between $50 and 400
persons were on the dock to take the
steamer, when the underpinning gave
way.
The outing was under the auspices
of the Court Amherst Lodge, /. o. o.
F. OF Black Rock, and was for the
benefit of sick brothers.
The party left Buffalo in the morn
ing on the steamer Henry Koerber
and the barge Lottie Koerber in tow.
The first news Of the accident reached
this city when Mrs. Miller, wife OF
the proprietor of n hotel at Eagle
Park, telephoned. The telephone sys.
TEN failed shortly after, and the place,
which is on the Canadian branch Of
the river, has been out of communlca-
tion since.
Fix Brothers, owners of the excur.
sion steamship line to which the boats
belong, said that at least eco persons
were thrown into the water and that
eight bodies had been recovered. The
boats had carried one load back to
Buffalo and We're at the dock taking
on the remainder when the accident
occurred.
The dock was V-shaped with the
landing place at the apex. 1t is at the
foot Of a high embankment and ITS
approach Is by long flight Of stairs.
The current at this point. which is
twelve miles above Niagara Falls, is
eight miles an hour.

Just warped into the dock to take on
the load of returning excursionlsts.
The dock was crowded. The gang
planks were thrown out and the sec
tion OF the crowd nearest the steamer
began to move forward, Captain Fix,
on board. called 10 them to move
slowly.
The words were no more than
spoken when the center Of the dock
sank with crash.
The planking held fast to the tim.

mass OF people was thrown.
