Another Section Gives Way and
Nearly Crushes Five Workmen.
THE LIST OF THE VICTIMS.
Twenty-two Dead, Seven Missing and
_ Twenty-six Injured—A Mother Whose
Sons,Were Lost Tries to Throw
Herself in the 'River.
CINCINNATI, June 17.~—Sixty-eight per-
sons were on'the Licking river bridge when
it fell yesterday, according to the best au-
thority. Of these twenty-two dead have
been recovered, seven are missing and
twenty-six were injured, of whom two or
three are not expected to live. Three es-
caped unhurt. ‘
With the approach of daylight people be-
gan to gather on the banks of the Licking
river, where the ill fated bridge went down
with its scores of human lives, and in a few.
hours thousands of men, women and chil-
dren were watching the work of rescuing
the bodies yet in the wreck. Ahalf hun-
dred brave men had volunteered their serv-
ices, and under the direction of' the bridge
company commenced an earnest search for
the dead. '
The Rest of the Bridge Falls.
While most- of the workmen were from
abroad, there were enough from this vicin-
ity to make the scenes on shore of the most
sickening character. Tearful women were
eagerly peering into the faces of the recov-
ered bodies as they were borne to the
shore,,and every now and then a pitiful -
wail of anguish told that some friend or rel-
ative had been recognized. '
It was slow work to get the bodies . from
the wreck. The big 'span seemed to have
fallen directly down into the river, and the
confusion of timbers and twisted bars oi
iron made the wreck look as if a tornado
had twisted it into a shapeless mass. Here
a poor unfortunate was pinned between
heavy timbers _ and his life crushed out,
while the weight of wreckage made it im-
possible to do his friends the poor service
of carrying him to land. It is believed that
all of the bodies in the wreckage have been
recovered and that those of the missing
have been swept down stream. .
About 9 o’clock, while the work was be-
ing prosecuted, a terrible crash Was heard.
Another section of the bridge, loosened and
tottering on the Newport side, fell, carry-
ing with it 2,000 pounds. of ropes and pul-
leys. Five men were at work just under it
at the time it gave way, but a warning cry
saved their lives. ‘ ' , .
A Mother’s Anguish. _
Nearly all of the identified dead have
been claimed by relatives. There is yet one
body unidentified at Menninger’s undertak~
ing establishment. William Baird, the sur-
viving brother of the contractors, has re-
ceived messages of sympathy from several
large bridge companies throughout the
country.
Mrs. Mary Sponsor, mother of the two
Sponsor boys, who were killed at the wreck,
made a desperate effort to drown herself at
the scene of the accident. ‘After hearing
that her sons Frank and John had gone
down in the terrible wreck she hurried to
the scene. Her mental condition was piti-
ful indeed. . '
Her friends, fearing that she would proba-
bly do something desperate, tried to console
her. Their efiorts were unavailing, and
still brooding over the fate of her boys she
plunged into the river and tried to drown
herself. A dozen men went to her rescue
and succeeded in preventing her from car—
rying out her purpose.

My disease (psoriasis) first broke out on my left

physician was afraid I would lose my eyesight
altogether. . It spread all over my head, and my

. . broke out. on my arms and
shoulders, until my arms Were
just one sore. It covered in

and shoulders beinlf the worst.

heard of the Cmcmu units, and after using
two bottles Cir-nouns Rnsonvner could see a
change; and after I had taken four bottles, I was
almost cured; and when I had used six bottles of
CUTICURA Rnsonvnxr, one box of Currcuasmnd
one cake or CUTICURA Sou, I was cured of the
dreadful disease from which I had suflcred for five
years. I cannot express with a pen what I suflered
