5000 TON BRIDGE SPAN FELL.
Probably 25 Lives Irost-Work Il
Modern Wonder.

Montreal, Canada, Sept. 1l.-The
central span Of the Quebec bridge,
which has been under construction
many years and which was to link
the Canadian ContineLta tai Railways
from Halifax to Vancouver, fell to-
day as it was being placed in posi-
ton. Many workmen were killed,
but the number as yet is unavaila-
BILE.
The span, weighing 5000 tons,
was towed to the bridge site this
morning, and its placing had been
heralded as one of the greatest feats
OF the world. Commission experts
from the United States, Great Bri-
tain and Germany worked out the
plans.
This is the second catastrophe for
the bridge in which lives have been
lost. In 1907 section collapsed
following an accident.
The Canadian government called
in world experts to complete the
structure.
The bridge was to be used by eight
railways and would shorten the
transcontinental trip 200 miles.
Ninety Men OH Bridge.
1t is estimated that 80 men were
on the bridge at the time the span
collapsed. Arrangements are being
made to send divers down into the
st. Lawrence to determine if it Is
possible to raise the steel span and
whether traffic will be blocked. The
death list has been placed at prob
ably 25.

WALHALLA, SOUTH CAROLINA,
MAINE GOES REPUBLICAN.
PlOgrcssives Join Hands and Defcat
Democratic Governor.

Portland, Maine, Sept. | 11.-Maine
Republicans, reinforced by returning
Progressives, won a signal victory at
the elections to-day. They elected
Governor. an Auditor, two United
States Senators and four Representa-
tives in Congress, and wrestling con-
troll Of the State House OF Represent
tatives from the Democrats, will be
able on joint vote of the Legisla-
ture to elect the other State officers
not chosen by popular vote.
Carl e. Milliken led his ticket, de-
feating Governor o. c. Curtis. who
sought reelection, by a plurality of
approximately $4,000.
The Republican drift extended to
county officers, the greater number
OF counties choosing Republican
county attorneys and sheriffs. These
offices are important locally because
their holders are charged with en-
forcing the prohibition law.
The vote was heavy. The Republi-
can leaders say nearly all the 1926
Progressives Of two years ago voted
the Republican ticket.
Hot Campaign.
The election was the elimination
Of one Of the hottest fights ever
waged in the State, and marked the
reunion Of the Republican and Pro-
gressive parties, whose differences in
1912 gave the electoral vote Of
Maine to President Wilson and two
years later resulted in the election of
Governor o. c. Curtis, a Democrat,
by plurality of 3,189. To-nights
figures indicate that the larger per-
centage Of the Progressive vote which
tSun rr OF
to-day for the Republican ticket.
Mccormick Optimistic.
New York, Sept. 1.-Chairman
Mccormick, Of the Democratic Ma
tional Committee, issued the follow
ing statement:
THE result Of the election in
Maine indicates a sweeping Demo-
cratic victory in November. I have
never claimed that we would win in
Maine, because I realized that to car
ry such a rock-ribbed Republican
stronghold in a Presidential year
would be practically impossible.
eve have materially reduced the
ways obtained on national issues in
that State, and that insures the elec-
ton Of President Wilson in Novem-
Der by an impressive majority, just
as a Republican plurality Of 1880
in September, 1892, prefaced the
election Of President Cleveland in
November.
''It is the first time United States
Senators have ever been elected in
Maine by popular vote and the senti-
ment as to national issues is to be
gauged by the vote cast upon the
same issues in other years."
And So Is Wilcox.
Chairman Wilcox telephoned from
Syracuse to Republican headquarters
tonight a statement, in which he
said the result Of the Maine election
meant reunited Republican party,
assuring the election of Charles E.
Hughes in November.
