MRS. GAIT / At SPOKANE
Division Street Bridge Gives
Way, and 7 People Lose
Their Lives in Waters Of
Stream, Others Being Hurt

Spokane, Dec. 1S.--Seyen persons
we're believed to have met death and
IL we're injured early today when the
North Division street bridge cayed In
beneath street car. permitting It to
slide with its human freight into the
Spokane river.
Rescue work was made slow be-
cause the bodies OF the victims were
pinned beneath debris-but one body
had been removed from the wreckage
three hours after the accident occur
red. Almost the entire police and
fire departments were trying desper-
ately to reach the others.
Twelve injured we're treated at the
emergency hospital. Three of these
were severely hurt.
The accident almost became .
catastrophe when second street car.
more heavily loaded than the first.
was halted on the brink of the river
near where the death car plunged.
Occupants Of the second car rushed
|panic-stricken to the street.
within a very few minutes . great
crowd gathered around the approach
to the bridge and on the bank Of the
river. Police had great difficulty in
stretching lines and keeping back the
excited mob.
Tugs and rowboats requisitioncd
by the police were soon at work above
the wreckage. Many persons were
pulled half conscious from the water,
among them the twelve who we're
taken to the emergency hospital.
The cause OF the collapse Of the
bridge beneath the car is not yet de-
termined. It was stated that a thor
ough investigation would be made.
According to persons on the Sec
ond car, the cave-in came with ap-
parently no warning. There was no
crash. and practically no sound of
grinding timbers, The bridge ap-
parently dropped beneath the weight
OF the car, which slid noiselessly
through a great hole into the river.
A majority Of the passengers were
laborers on their way to work. Sew
eral working girls were aboard the
car. but It was believed that all Of
these we're saved.
The conductor Of the second car
on the Hillyard street line was warn
ed by the sudden extinguishing OF the
lights Of the first car, and set his
brakes. His car groaned its way to
the very brink Of the gap in the
bridge. tottered on the edge and An
ally caught fast by its trucks, though
fitting at a perilous angle.
Firemen with long ladders were
able to reach the Astor car and a
piece of flooring from the wrecked
bridge. On the top Of the car perch
cd the motorman and conductor and
eight passengers. who had extricated
themselves. Only the top OF the car
was above the water and the firemen
we're unable to save any OF the pass
sengers who failed to climb through
the windows. One OF the first Of the
injured to get out Of the water was
Walter Cleveland, who said:
THE lights flashed out and every
thing went dark. The first thing |
knew we were In the river and I
could feel the water coming up about
my head. Some way | got out and
onto piece Of the floor Of the bridge,
II seemed years until some one came.
All the time ! could hear groans and
cries from the passengers inside"
