A fatal accident occurred yesterday after- noon about 4:20 o'clock on the coffer dam around pier No. 5 of the Aqueduct bridge, which 1s being demolished, preparatory to erecting a new and substantial masonry structure, resulting in the death of the foreman on the work, Otto Klatt, who was the representative of the Houston Con- struction Company of Philadelphia, the contractors. A large derrick is used for removing the stone from the present pler. While lifting a heavy stone the cable which operated the derrick broke, and the heavy beam fell downward. Foreman Klatt happened to be standing near the outer edge of the coffer dam and in the path of the falling timber. Before he could move he was struck on the head and pinioned to the ground. There were about twelve men employed on the ; dam, and without loss of time the heavy ; Piece of timber was removed, a boat se- | cured, and the injured man rowed to the | shore. The patrol wagon of the seventh precinct took charge of the mn, then un- conscious, and drove hurriedly toward the | Emergency Hospital. Death ensued a few minutes after reaching the institution. An examination showed that Klatt’s skull was crushed, a number of his ribs broken, and the upper bones of both his lower limbs fractured. In addition there were a num- ber of other minor injuries. ‘The remains were removed to the under- taking establishment of John McCarthy, at 3335 M street. This morning shortly before 11 o'clock Coroner Carr visited. the place, and after hearing the statements of several employes and viewing the remains, gave a certificate of accidental death.

It is ob- tained by evaporation at the Springs, and is identical with the waters in its action and results, which are the same today as when Emperor Charles IV. was cured four hundred years ago, and later George III.
