At 11 o’clock it was known that twenty fiv. men had been killed, and already eleven had been recovered from the water. The bodies were most hor ribly mangled. The loss of life may go to fifty. The shocking accident was wittnessed by men employed along the river front, and on the river. The Ferry Company at once sent two boats to asist in securing the bodies and rescuing the work men still alive. About sixty men were at work on the span when it «ave away and plunged them into the river. Both banks of the river were s00n crowded with people. Many women were in the throngs, and it was apparent that there were present the wives and children of those who had gone down to death The Louisville and Jeffersonville Bridge Company has been an unfor tunate one. The two accidents in the caissons three years ago resulted in the death of sixteen workmen and the present accident will swell the list to proportions at present un known. Besides this it has wrecked sever al fortunes and was the cause of a bank failure. The first work on the bridge was Since then, owing to financial difficulties, work has been auspended from time to time. The bridge was originally to have been completed in eighteeu months, whieh would have been April, 1891. Already $1,000,900 has been spent one the structure.

I believe in no makeshifts or partial reduc tions of tariff taxation. The so called protection to all labor is a delusion. Labor is not protected Invested capital receives a bonus in the form of protection and it is then optional with the capitalist to give a share of the bonus to Jabor in the form of in creased wages.
