JUMPED This DEATH.

The Brooklyn Bridge Adds Another
to Its List of Victims.

 

KILLED ALMOST INSTANTLY.

James Dufi‘y of County Gavan Makes the
Perilous Leap, Strikes the Water on His
Back and Ends His Career In
the River—The Fool Record.

NEW YORK, April 15,—A young man
who said that he was James Dufiy, from
County Gavan, and that he had been em-
ployed on White Star steamers as a steer-
age steward, jumped from the Brcoklyn
bridge yesterday afternoon and was killed.
A score of people on the bridge and many
more who wore working along the river
front saw him drop down, feet first. and
then turn and strike the Water on his back.
There was a splash that sent the water
fiying 15 or 20 feet. Half a minute later
a head appeared and then sank again.

Duffy was about 27 years old and a
heavy drinker. _He missed the Runlc on
her last trip from this port, and heexpect-
cd to join her when she reached this port
again. During the past week he had spent
much of his time in Steve Brodio’s saloon,
on the Bowery. He said that he had made
some high jumps in England, and he told

- Brodie that he was going to jump from

L the Brooklyn bridge. Among the bridges
that he said he had jumped from Were the
Waterloo bridge, in London, and the high
bridge at Newcastle-on-Tyne. He was
short and stoutly built.

”He came to me,” said Brodie, "and I
gave him a quarter to get a night’s lodg-
ing. I didn’t think he meant anything by
his talk. Lots of bums come in and tell
me that they are going to jump the bridge.
He told me this afternoon that he was go«
ing to make the jump. He said he had no
.money, and he wasn’t afraid of anything.
I didn’t take much stock in him, but I
sent my brother Dan and Jack Spencer
with him to keep him from jumping.”

Duffy went around for an hour telling
people on the Bowery that he was going to
jump the bridge and inviting them to see
him do it. ' g ,

“What are you going to do it for?” asked
one of them.

“Just to show that I can do it,” said
Duffy. “It’s easy when you know how.”

The men to whom Duffy spoke of his in-
tention thought that he intended to play a
practical joke on them. Dufly, Dan Bro-
die and Jack Spencer hung around the en—
trance of the Brooklyn bridge for a few
minutes talking the thing over.

“Come on,” said Dufiy, “I’m going to
jump now, and I want you to see that I
do it fair and square. ”

Killed Almost Instantly.

Accompanied by Dan Brodie and Spen-
cer, Who say that they didn’t believe that
he would make the jump, he walked brisk-
ly out on the promenade. Policeman John
Donnelly was near the New York tower as
the party passed. He paid no particular
attention to them. When the highest point
of the central span was reached, the party
stopped for a minute. There is a plank
here that extends over the Brooklyn bound
railroad track for the use of the workmen
who attend to the electric light at that
point. Dufiy throw off his cap, and turn
ing to his companions said: “Here is where
I go over. I have a boat to meet me, and
I’ll see fun in half an hour. ”

Policeman Donnelly saw him walk
across the plank over the tracks, and think-
ing that it was some boy Skylarking he
walked out rapidly to put a stop to it.
Duin climbed down the iron ladder that
leads from the track to the roadway and
climbed upon the railing. Then Donnel-
ly saw that his purpose was to jump, and
yelling “ Come back!” began to run to«
ward him. Duffy’s companions were also
calling to him from the promenade, but he
paid no attention to them, nor did he hurry
in his movements. Balancing himself for
a second on the outer cable he sprang clear
of the bridge and shot down feet foremost,
with his arms held tightly to his side.

Spencer and Brodie, who watched the
jump from the bridge, say that he con-
trolled himself until within 25 feet of the
water. Then his legs spread, and he
swung his arms out. That was fatal. “In-
stead of striking feet first, as he had ex-
pected, he swung over on his back and

men on either side of the river say they
heard. When the cry went up on the bridge
that a man ,had jumped, every one ran to
the rail. Several of the spectators say that
half a minute or more after the big splash
they saw a head bob up and disappear.
There was no boat waiting for Duffy. Sev-
eral tugs steamed over the spot where he
was last seen, but their crews were appar-
ently ignorant of the fact that a jump had

the Clyde line pier saw the body drop, and
for a long time they waited for it to reap-
pear. It is probable that Dufi‘y was killed
almostinstantly. ‘
Previous Bridge Jumpers.
“ Odlum, the athlete and professional
swimmer, was the first man who jumped
from the Brooklyn bridge. He made the
leap on May 19, 1885, to' win a wager that
he had made with Paul Boyton. Odlum
was taken out of the water alive, but he
died a few days later from his injuries.
George Fleishcr jumped from the bridge
on May 25, 1885, and was killed. Patrick
Carroll. who was the next man to take the
leap, did it while he was intoxicated, and
with the intent of committing suicide. He
escaped without a scratch. Steve Brodie
jumped from it in 1887 and was picked up
uninjured. E. C. Baldwin jumped on
Dec. 3, 1889, and his body was found a
week later. Francis McCarthy dropped
from the highest point of the middle span
on Nov. 15, 1891. and his body was never
recovered. Larry Donovan, a printer,
made the jump without injury in 1890,
and then entered a dime museum. John
Haggerty, a light weight boxer of Cherry
Hill, jumped from the bridge on J 11119 19
and was picked up by a tugboat. After
several days in'the hospital Huggerty was
ready for a fight. A man who has never
been identified jumped from the bridge
last May and was killed.

A Buffalo newsboy, Toronto J. Tremain,
who has been talking about jumping the
bridge, came around after the event and
asserted that it was he who had jumped.
He telegraphed to Buffalo:

”Have succeeded. Papers report me
dead. TORONTO RED."
