ACCIDENT NEAR -QUEBEC learner Bearing 30 Doctors Is Be ing Hurried to Scene of Disaster. Structure Over Mile Long Was Nearly Finished. QUEBEC, Aug. 29. A section of the new bridge acros sthe St ' I.awrerice Kiver five miles below this city, col lapsed late today, carrying scores of bridge workmen and mechanics into the water. It is estimated that the loss of life, is at least 60, and may exceed that number by 20. The bridge was about a mile and a half long and half of It, from the south shore to midstream, crumpled up and dropped into the water. ' Ninety len were at wor kon this section of the structure, and the whistle had blown at 6:30 for them to quit work for the day. when there came a grinding sound from the bridge midstream. The men turned to see what had hap pened, and an instant later the cry went up: "The bridge is falling." The men made a rush shoreward, but ( the distance was too great for them to escape. The falling section of the bridge dragged others after it. The snapping girders and cables boomed like a crash of artillery. Only a Few Reach Shore. Terror lent fieetness to the feet of the frightened workmen as they sped shore ward, but only a few of them reached safety before the last piece of iron work on the south shore was dragged into the river. Near the shore the wreckage of the bridge did not go below the surface of the water and eight workmen who re mained above water were rescued and taken to the hospital at Ievis. The steamer Glenmont had just cleared the bridge when the first sec tion fell. The water thrown up by the debris came clear over the bridge of the steamer. The captain at once ordered out all the small boats. They plied backward and forward over the sunken wreckage for half an hour, but there was no sign of life. Victims Held in Iron Grip. The twisted iron and steel held its victims in a terrible death grip. A few floating timbers and the broken strands of the bridge toward the north shore were the only signs that any thing unusual had happened. There was not a ripple on the smooth surface of the St. Lawrence as it swept along toward the gulf. ' All the drowned men were employes of the Phoenixville Bridge Company and sub-contractors, of Quebec and Montreal. At 10 P. M., 16 bodies had . been recovered. , ' The Quebec bridge was begun about seven years ago, and was to . have been finished In Subsidies had been granted by the Federal and provincial governments and the City of Quebec, and the estibmated cost for work was tlO, 000,000. The Phoenixville Bridge Com pany of Pennsylvania had the contract lor the construction of the bridge, and crews were working from both sides of the river. QUEBEC, Aug. 29. A steamer with 30 doctors and newspaper men left here at 8:15 for the scene of the bridge dis aster. It is reported here that the loss of life was over BO. Nearly half of the bridge beginning at the south shore fell into the river. The bridge was about a mile and a half long, and was nearly finished.

Aug. 24. (Special.) With a view of determining the type best adapted to pull its heavy passenger trains through the New York tunnels, the Pennsylvania Railroad has in progress a series of experiments upon electric locomotives. On its WesL Jersey and Sea3hore division .and on the Long Island Railroad, two direct current heavy type locomotives have been put In service. In general appearance they are quite similar and resemble a Fhort two-truck passenger coach, with few windows and large wheels. One of the locomotives weighs 174.100 pounds and Is equipped with four motors, aggregating 1430 horsepower, which drive the wheels through single reduction gears. The other locomotive weighs 195,203 pounds and is equipped with motors, aggregating 1240 horsepower, which drive the wheels directly with out interposition of any gearing. By comparing the performance of the two locomotives it will be possible to determine the relative merits of the two systems of driving: " Another Important question, relating to the method of supporting motors, can be settled by observing the performance of one of the locomotives. One of its trucks has motors tastened to the truck frame, and the other truck has motors which rest on springs supported by the main journals, and are independent of the truck frame. The couplers and buffers are carried by the trucks instead of on the underframe of the car body. By this arrangement, strains of buffing and pulling are transmitted directly through the trucks and do not enter the body of the cab at all. Over all the locomotives measure 37 feet, 10 Inches long, 10 f eet.l inches broad and 13 feet, 4 inches high. Driving wheels are 4 feet, 3 inches In diameter and are supported by axles which are 8 inches In diameter at the center. . ' , The cab is of steel and the electrical appaiatus which it contains is arranged along the sides, allowing a passage through the center. Electrical connections are so arranged that If two or more locomotives are coupled together and pulling the same train, they can be controlled by the engineer of the first locomotive. GARY MURDERER y be Robber of Jewelry Store Sus pected of Killing the Schroeder Girl. GIVES POLICE HARD FIGHT Fiend Believed to Have Witnessed Finding of Body by Mother Evi dence Narrows Down the Iden tity to the Gary Man. CHICAGO, Aug. 29. (Special.) A new suspect in the murder of Lizzie Schroeder, 10 years old, who was killed at Gary, Ind., Monday, was arrested by the police of South Chicago today. The prisoner, who gave his name as James Irwin, was taken while looting a South Chicago Jewelry store, to which he had gained entrance by smashing a win dow. The man was captured only after a hard struggle. Including a revolver duel with three policemen, one of the officers sustaining an ugly knife wound In the arm. Irwin Is connected with the Schroeder murder for two reasons, the police de clare. When examined, the man was found to be without part of his cloth ing, and this may indicate. It is thought, that the man shed his gar ments because of telltale bloodstains. Irwin showed himself to be familiar with Gary In his conversation. Chief of Police Joseph Martin, of Gary, Ind. outlined his theory of the identity of the murderer today. He said: "I am certain the fellow who killed the Schroeder girl still Is In Gary. I also believe that he was well known to the girl. It Is probable that he was not 100 feet away when the mother found her daughter breathing her last breath. He showed by his movements, as traced since, that he is thoroughly acquainted with this entire locality; also he must have been a native of Gary and had some place to change his clothes, as he could not have failed to attract notice, because of the blood stains that must cover every article of clothing worn by him.

The principle of the telephone has been applied by a German inventor to the lo cation of schools of fish by fishermen. ,A sensitive transmitter In a waterproof case is lowered In the water with a suitable connection on' a fishing vessel or at some station. The passage of a shoal of fish causes a constant tapping on the case of the microphone, and In this manner the presence of the fish In thj water Is revealed to the fish ermen at the station, and efforts are made at once to capture the school. The fishermen are in readiness, and they start at once, with the result that a great portion of the fish are captured. The device has been given a practical test, and It is said that it Is possible t determine the charac ter of the fish with more or less ac curacy. Herring and such small fish passing in great numbers make a whistling noise, tl.eir numbers being largely indicated by the pitch of the sound, whi-e codfish make a noise en tirely different in character.
