Woman Falls Exhausted Seeking to Climb to Safety Young Man Turns Back to Give Aid and Act Costs Him His Life Others Endangered. Niagara Fal's, N. Y., Feb. 5. Tho great ice bridge that has choked the river churned between the cataract and the upper steel arch bridge below the falls for the last three weeks broke from its moorings at noon and went down the river, taking with it to their death a man and a woman, said to be Mr. and Mrs. Eldridge Stanton of To ronto, and Burrell Heacock, seventeen years old, of Cleveland. Four other persons were on the ice at the time, but managed to get ashore in safety. Tho bridge was considered safe. For weeks the great fields of ice had been coming down the river, piling up against the barrier until it was from sixty to eighty feet thick, and under the influence of zero weather the great mass had become firmly anchored to the si ore. The Jam was about 1,000 feet, in length, and in somo places quarter of a mile in breadth. Excursionists Come. For two weeks it had offered safe passage to the hardy, and an im mense crowd of excursionists came to view the winter wonder of the riv er. Had the accident happened nn hour later in the day hundreds would have lost their lives, for the crowd was moving into Prospect park in the elevators that run down the cliff for the purpose of venturing out upon the ice. Somewhere deep In the great whirl pool sleeps tbe man, partV.lly Identi fied as Mr. Stanton, who twice put aside chances of rescue in order to remain with his terror stricken wife, and who, in the shadow of death, Just at the break in the rapids spurned as sistance for himself and attempted to 'jind about the woman's body a rope dangling from the lower steel arch bridge. The lad, Burre'l Heacock, was cast in the some mold. Had he not turned back on the Ice to give as sistance to the man he, too, might have made the shore. Hill Gives Warning. On the bridge at the time it tore free from the shore, besides these three, were Monroe Gilbert, Ignatius Roth, William' Hill, William Lablond, and an Italian. Hill's shack was near est to the American shore. When he heard the grinding and crashing of the Ice. he ran at top speed toward the Canadian shore, calling on the others to follow him. Lablond gave them warning that safety lay In thai direction. Gilbert and the It.i'Ian fol I lowed their lead, but the others be calm" confused. By tbe time they bad regained their composure, the bridge was moving fast down tho river. Tbe man and woman stirtcd first to wards the American shore, but they were stopped by a lane of open water. Back they ran towards the Canadian side, turned about and made for the merlcnn s'de. When hardly more than fifty yards from the rocky shore tbe woman fell on her face, utterly spent. Woman Gives Up. "I can't go on; I can't go on," she cried. "Let's us die here." All the time the great field of Ice, driven onward by a southwest gale and pressed by a Jam broken free from Its anchorage near the base of the horseshoe fall, went on breasting the terrible outrush of the Niagara Falls Power company's tunnel out flow, the mightiest current In all the river, without being broken. As the woman fell the man strove to get her to her feet again, and tried to drag her along the Ice, calling tot ass'stance to Roth and Heacock, who were nearest. Heacock turned back to the couple and helped support the woman. The act cost him his life. Roth struggled along over the hum mocks of Ice, getting close to the open stretch of water at the Canadian end of the Jam. Roth was afraid to trust hlmse'f In the Icy wrtev? lablond Jumped out to tho field of Ice with a rone and half carried, half dragged the boy ashore. Ten Oystsrmen Thought Crowned.
