HOW IT BEOl'.V
nobody knows. The excitement emn
roenccd at the New York end, where the
roadway is nrrow, steep and dilH
cult. Some say that a bund of pick-pockets
plying their trade caused thesciire.
Others hv that a fainting woman was the
cause, lu a moment the two tlironu's
whluh were pouring from the New York
and Brooklyn sldts became Intensely ex
cited, und the panic began. Down
the stairway on the New York side
men, women ant' children tumbled in
a coufused liuan utid weie
crushed to death. Attempts were made
by bridge watchmen and others to stay the
ruMi. but all was futile. Part of the Iron
railing was laknn tlwwti and the crowd let
out on either slue to the railroad trucks,
but at these exlti several accidents also
occurred. The pauiu lasted a few mom
ents, but in that time it Is thought that t
least twentr-tlve persons were Killed and
fifty seriously Injured.
rtenrv Guy t'arleton, who was lu the
crush, laid: :"The lines Jostled each other

way. The pack became denier. A po
liceman leaped to the railing and ordered
the crowd to the New York side. Ohe
dleutlr the mass pushed with one accord In
that direution. me hundred yards further
down men urged the mass toward Brook
lyn. 1 he mistake wss instantly followed
by shrieks and oaths from those crushed
where the pressure was concentrated. In
moment the psck was complete, and ruim,
women and children fought desperately to
gain the railing. A girl threw her arms
about tne nam or a man in front or ner.
With an oath he turned and struck her

A drunk m woman bucked against the rul

and the strutglinc mass was slowly ' forced
toward the staircase to an accompaniment
ofihrteksand veils, to which everyone
oontrilttted. The first tjortlno of the
crowd managed to descend m safety. Then

1 Hit CAISK OF THK ACCIDENT.
The coroner will itibpirna the bridge
trustees, Superintendent Martin ami all
othen who can give any Information in ref
ferenoe to tho accident yesterday. He In
tends the investigation to be thorough.
Superintendent Martin It aa been Investi
gating the cam ot the disaster, and the
best authenticated Information he ran
gather leads him to believe the panic wits
caused by plcpocketi. No action has yet
been, taken by the bridge trustees.
Tne superiniviKU'iii ucKiiowioagei that
the spuce allotted to foot passengers is at
present insufliclent, but thinks when the
irnlni begin to run and time lessens ami
osity It will be found to be ample.
The bodies of the dead carried lo the
Chambers meet hospital mn removed tu
the homei of their friends, and ptepura,.
tloo for their burial huve begun. All tho
injured in tne t. rummers street Hospital are
Improving. A number of iiujuliics were
made there for missing persons, but no In
formation couuernlng them could be given,
ai all tho dead and Injured have been iden
tified.
CAN DANOKR UK AVOII'Ell?
The unlvorsal comment this morning re
specting the bridge horror Is that the sain
accident Is liable to happen at any time no
matter what the police restrlotbns muy be,
unless the steps are abolished or ut leat di
vided for tho two streams ef pedt -t rintia.
The superintendent of the bridge, Martin,
make the following frank statement:
The foot-path Ii certainly no infe. Place
! or luch crowds as pass over the bridge,
t was not Intended lo accommodate an
such travel as we are having. A to the
steps It has been decided to nut a railing
up ana aown ine untune to aiviue tne peo
pie going out way from thnie going the
ple
tber. The railing would have to be car
ried up lorue wav hevond the top of the
taps, of course. We ihould carry It prob
ably a hundred feet long. This Is one al
teration we bad already determined upon,
and it is to be made at once. Then we are
golug to place side railings on the
steps ft little futthar bt:k.
Soma space Is now lost lv
tbem. Then further back between the
cablet wt can widen the passage by plac
ing the rtlllugs farther tpart and against
the cables, tad thlt Ii to be done."
-
"Could net tha steps be-dispensed
wlthi"'. was tsked.
"Well, we could build what is called a
rAlmp, an Inclined plane front the top of
the steps to a point further down the
bridge, hut there would be some dunger in
making Ibe grade any steeper, especially lu
wet or Icy weather. "
To the superintendent's statement liny
be added that the fact is now obvious tout
during those heurs of the day when trans-'
it is most lively, aud nn holidays and Hun
days, there will si wars be great danger of
a licavy crush, unless means of relieving it1
be devised. Not even the Bridge Cable
trsck for care, now nearly completed, will
prevent the crush at these times.

FRANCE FRIGHTENED.
A Combination that Threatens the Peace
of Europe.
Nvt York, May ill. The Herald's spe
cial from Tails says: Three salient facts
are now exciting the hopes or fears of.'every
thinking man In Europe. First the triple
alliance tiow constitutes a sort of supreme
tribunal of Europe, which is capable of
enforcing Its will or caprice upon any or
all other European powers, and without
the consent of which no European question
can be decided. Seuoud 'Hiat lu tbe
event of war the armies of Germany, Aus
tria and Italy would constitute so niunr
parts of one gigantic and
jierfectlv elaborated machine.
Third Thatjust as Prussia wielded togeth
er tbe North German Confederation in lvW
and the German Empire in lfsTl, so Is the
German Chancellor now wielding together
a still greater military and political unit,
equal in extent to the Empire of Charle
magne, and Intended eventually to embrace
the whole of Central Europe, Italy and the
countries contiguous to the Danube and the
Balkans.
Figaro, under the head, "LiMiiarck's
Secret," calls on France to arouse herself,
and says th county has never been in
Li eater p rtl. It adds that the Chancellor's
plans have been set In all their nakedness
before Frestdeut Orevy and tbe Ministry In
a way which In likely to cause an Immedi
ate cbanire in Government policy. "We
can no loueer conceal tbe fact that the tri
ple alliance is not only an accomplished fact
but that it Is a weapon directed against us.
Mgnor Mairlni, two months ago, in the
t alals l najjibers. said that opportunities
not far dl-Unt might enable Italy t use
tier strength in the service or a great cause.
We remember that, aud we watch the
strictly professional Journey which Count
Von Moltke, despite liis eighty-three
years and bis Infirmities, bus Just accom
plished over the C'orolcho road and
through the weakest points of the Italian
frontier. It is not for simnlv distress that
the old German strategist, braving heat
aud fatigue, came to ti dy, from Genoa to
Bardlgbrra. all the mountain passes a a
general, making nimseir larniliar with
future field. A pleasure trip appurentl
led v on Moltke over the St. Uothard and
other passes opening in the rear of Belfort
on tne t rencn frontier, ibe Italian itov-
ernnient meets Bismarck's programme bv

there must be some powerful, if unknown.
hand and Bismarck is also using be Fretis
to secure tne reconciliation with the Pope
which be cannot himself seem to ask. and
is doing all he can to diminish the strength
of France bv urging on its wsrs In Senegal
on the Congo, in Madugnacar, in Tunis and
In Cochin China, thus weakening the conn
try at home. Into all tbe blunders and
irups has the country fallen, It is a vivisec
tion, and Austila, Italy and Germany will,
in the end, each get their share of our ter

TRUE
Temperance
Is not signing a pledge
or taking a solemn oath that
cannot be kept, because of
the non-removal of the cause
liquor. The way to make
a man temperate is to kill
the desire for those dreadful
artificial stimulants that car
ry so many bright intellects
to premature graves, and
desolation, strife and un
happiness into so man
families.
Itisafactt Brown's IroM
Bitters, a true non-alcoholic
tonic, made in Baltimore,
Md.,by the Brown Chemical
Company, who are old drug-
f (Ms and in every particu
ar reliable, will, by remov
ing the craving appetite of
the drunkard, and by curing
the nervousness, weakness,
and general ill health result
ing from intemperance, do
more to promote temperance,
in the strictest sense thin
any other means now known. ;
It is a well authenticated
f.ict that many medicines,
especially ' bitters,' are noth
ing but cheap whiskey vilely
concocted for use in local
option countries. Such isj
not the case with Brown's
IronIhtteks. Itisamedi
