Waverly, Sept. 30 - A wreck in
which two persons were killed and
several injured, occurred here yes
terday when the Chicago Great West
ern train on the Sumner branch, in
going over the bridge across the Ce-
uar river, struck a weak spot and
plunged into the river. The bridge
was being rebuilt and when the train
was about in the middle of the
bridge the tender and smoking car
went into the river. The engine,
however, kept clear of the water and
the rear car, with it's front trucks
torn away, stayed on the track. The
two men were killed instantly, one
being a bridge workman. He was hit
by a falling timber. The other man
was a brick layer from Waterloo,
named Eadtman, who was standing
on tht platform between the passen-
ger coach and the smoker and was
badly crushed OF those injured,
three are at the local hospital, while
the others injured were able to be
taken to their homes. Two WreCking
crews are on the ground, but find 1t
difficult to remove. the .wreckage
form the river, as the remaining part
of the bridge is unsafe to get on with
the WreCker
