Details cf the railroad act i lent on
the Chicago, Hock Island and Pacific
railroad at the ease branch of l our
Mile Creek, seven miles from this city,
are beginning to arrive. T. e number
of killed is estimated all the way from
ten to fifty. Aii th train but the

the rest, and it is said all of the eleven
occupants but one were killed. It J

of accident.
Business In a MiuuUv
Great credit 13 duo to the managers
andoflicers of tho B. & M. K. II. II. in
Neb., for the wonderful business abili
ties they havo displayed in handling
tho immense transit business which
has unexpectedly been crowded on to
them since last Saturday.
"When it is remembered that the B.
& M. Company was moving the large
two story uepot rrom its original site
to the foot of Main street, and that this
building covered all but one of the
tracks, rendering the handling cf the
Immense number of cars tea times
ruoro difficult from want of track room,
it will be seen how great was the exec
utive ability required to meet the sad
den emergency which the calamity to
the Omaha bridge rendered a necessity.
Through almost superhuman efforts,
the officers and men, laboring night
and day, have managed to keep the nu
merous trains moving and the road
clear East and West. They are now
handling 400 cars daily. Three of the
tracks are clearutotUin ritiflg
vT'fuueataiy), and by the time this pa
per is issued all tracks will be clear,
The Depot will be in its place, and no
matter how many cars come from East
or West, the wonderful energies of the
13. & M. force will be adequate to take
care of all of them, and no interruption
will occur. In this connection we
would urge the attention of the B. &
M. directors to the absolute necessity
cf constructing a bridge here at the
earliest psi'-le mordent. Even to-d::y
willi all the v.'oiai-.fui ability its of
ficers and uu-ii Lave displayed, an acci
dent to their transfer boats would ab
solutely close business between Nebras
ka and the East. This is too slender a
thread for such t. powerful company
to Jiang its prosperity on; and. we call
on Mr. Perkins and Messrs. Irving and j
IIoMroge to look this matter stpiarely (
in the face and unite in proper repre- j
sentaii'-.in to their director?. Iho
who'e stock and grata business of Ne
braska now l-inges for it Mtecesiul op
er.lh:u on the merest accident to the
ti'.i.tsTvr at this point, and the entire
community of this Stale is deeply in
terested in securing a bridge -at this I
point. I
Tin: de arnction of 11. o ea-tero end
of the P. M iige at Omaha and 'Coun
cil 1I uffs. it st'ti.is to us, oimht to in
duce the C. P.. & (. to at once place- a i
substantial K. It. bridge across the riv- !
i
er at this plaee. Vrom St. Joseph to j
the Britis-h Possesions, the public must j
now submit, for a time, to the incon- j
veniencecf Steam and Hop'? Ferries.;
It is demonstrated that the Union Pa- j
ci:lc bridge, to say the least of it, i3 in- j
secure, it is shattered, and with it the
public eoinideiice iu that structure 1
must bo shaken. The only rational !
conclusion one coi.ie to is that ihe
tide of travel from East to West, and
West to Kasr, will now for a time turn j
aside and pass over the Kansas l'oute,
because St. Louis, Kar.s.is i.'ity and St.
Joseph all offer lirst class facilities for
crossing the Missouri liver, without
danger, delay or inconvenience. I
There can be no valid excuse for the
C. E. & Q. management not bridging !
the Missouri river. Draining the rich- j
grain and stock districts west of the '

ha being lifted from its place, leaves
the C. B. Si Q., Rock Island and North
western depending on the steam ferries
of riattsmouth and Blair. We repeat
it, the great stream of travel to and
through our State, of tourists, capital
ists and emigrant, will now seek the
most convenient crossing south of Ne
braska; and the whole State suffer
thereby. We are credibly informed by
experienced Itail lload and hiidge build
ers that a good subalaii' Hail li ad
bridge c:;i be put acin.--.-s the Missouri
river at I'lattsmouth for less than 6j0J
000. A calamity has befallen the whole
State by the Freak in the U. P. struct
ure, the absolute necessity for one or
two more Kail lioad bridges across the
Old Missouri upon Iowa and Nebras
ka soil, ought to be no longer overlook
ed by the C. Li. & Q. and other Io wa
roads, and will no longer be excused by
the public,

Give us a bridge geutle-
The great misfortune of the U. P. II.
II. in the less of two spans of their
beautiful bridge, at Omaha, has been
the rnear.3 of making things lively here
as it has necessitated the transfer of
the cars of the Hock Island, C. Ik Si Q.
and St. Joe Ho.ids at this point. The
full force of the company has been put
to work, and there will be little or no
delay to the different trains, the two
boats being kept running night and
day, one transferring four and the oth
er live cars each trip. The dyke is be
ing put in order to m ike the transfer
mora expeditions. The extra travel
came at a rather unpropitous time, the
company being in the midst of moving
the passenger and freight elepots to the
foot of Main St., from the old location
two blocks north. The two things to
gether make things lively for our U.K.
boys.
WAS IT MURDER.
The Hose Child Found in Davis Creek.
It is Conjectured t! at it was DronucJ
( Avoid Detect ion.
To some extent the friends of Mr. S.
C. Kose have been put out of suspense
as the news has reached the city, that
their chilel has been found. The fol
lowing is the letter sent by Mr. Kt'Se
.
to certain friends. '
iVur child was found this, Saturday,
morning, two miles northwest of my
house. It rained very hard here last
night and the body floated down, what
is known as Davis creek and lodged on
some rubbish near a house occupied by
Mrs Cains.
S. C. Rose
N. E. The State the body is in, I
think it is best to bury the child here.
Inform state friends. S. C. K.
As it has been eleven days since the
child as lost, it would be imposible
for the remains to have been in the
state they were. As the chilel is but 3
years old it could not have walked the
distance. Further this neighborhood
has been thoroughly searched and it is
hardly probable that the body should
not have been found before. On thes?
groundsthe f riendsof th family are loud
in the opinion that the child has been
put out of l!e way in tUlt man tier, sup
posing the kidnappers had found it im
posible to secret the child any longer.
With the limited facts known in this
city it would be hard to com 3 to this
opinion conckui vely. But a thorough
investigation could easily 'determine
the matter, and if it is thought this to
be the case, officers should ba put on
the track of the murderers who if once
caught would meet with severe punish
ment. The sympathy of this consul nity I
are elsuOcdrW-WrrltrfSts'a'ul "hii good
lady. The suffering they have under
gone in the last fortnight cannot be
appreciated. It is sad enough to lose
these bright little ones, but the mys
tery which surrounels this case a ids to
the afiiction.
The remains will be brought to this
city and buried here. Omaha Repub
lican. We clip from the Omaha Republican
the following particulars of the great
disaster, not to Omaha alone, but to
the whole tran?-eoi.tineiital traveling
public, in the destruction of a portion
of tl e great U. P. R. E.bridge at that
place:
With the multitude a Republican re
porter visited the scene. We first went
to the eastern end of the bridge as ii
now stands and viewed the wreck.
Two spans were gone the tw o at the
extreme end en the Iowa tide. Noth
ing remained between us and the east- I
ern bank except the lone peer. The
nearest span had fallen into the water
anel was out of sight. The one en the
eastern shore lay against embank
inent, ih' -liva.' v reujlit-iior. luas be
ing wrought into all conceivable shapes.
The large pieces which were of cast
iron were badlv broken. This was the
sight.
Of course the report that it had been
struck by lightning had beeu disputed
both in fact and in theory. It was no
more possiidi for lightning to strike
one part o. this bridge than it would
lo fr it to splinter a lightning rod. The
spans had been lilted bodily by the
wind, in some ferm a eyclcn? or
whirlwind most likeiv. We sav lifted.
for there wen; no signs of its Laving j
slid eff the piers or being blown over, j
The oier on which we stood did no: I
f tnu ture having be e a lmneel from it.
Wp comM net eu'ieeive it possible for
wind to raise this enonaous weight ;
but t' Ls was tlie only sol ution. Jt was
the wind, in its resistless wliirl of im
mense luagnitiuie.
On interview in Mr: John I'iersaa,
ibf! wetelmian eui theeat end, we learn- .
the particular t j be as follows: He
was stiindinj: in tho door ,ef i!.e i-m ill
gu.trd house ju-.t oil the bridge when J
the storm came up. AVhen the bridge
commenced to move he sprang out of
the eloor and down on the inelineel em
bankment, several of the irons falling
on him, but not indicting any seriou3
injury, though his leg was badly bruis
ed. Oil trying to rise he found he was
held fast by some of the telegraph
wires I cing drawn across his neck. A f
ter some trouble lie extricated himself
and walked to his house a few roth dis
tant and called to a friend to start up
the track and be ready to signal any
trains that might be coming from the
east. This wa-3 at 3:30 a. m. lie then
went in search of a skiff to cross the
river and give warning on tins side.
After consideral delay he reached the
sand-bar which he crossed on foot,
swimming the channel on this side,
reaching the train-dispaf cher's office
just in time to stop th- morning, pas
senger which was just about to pull
out.
It is not delinitely known what will
be the exact cost of replacing the spans.
It has been variously estimated at from
one hundred to two hundred thousand
dollars. The remaining spans are left
uninjured. The plan of the bridge
was so arranged that each span was
entirely independent of the other. The
falling of these two spans in no wise
strained the other parts. The two
piers are left standing without the
least injury. II is supposed that 00
days is the shortest period in which we
can expect to see this great thorough
fare fully repaireel and ready for use.
All elirect railroad connection from
the east will be cut oil for some time.
Omaha will have other serious 'cut
edi's" to contend with one on the north,
anel the other on the south. The Hock
Island. C. 13. Si Q. and St. Joe roads will
all transfer their passengers, mails and
baggage at Fast I'lattsmouth, for trans
fer to the E. & M. in Nebraska, which
will hereafter run trains in connection
with the Union Paciliio. The Chicago
anel Northwestern will make her trans
fer at Blair, connecting with the Union
Pacific at Fremont.
Freight trains will be partially block
ed feu- a time and some trouble will ba
given our merchants, but as the U. P.
company have the most at stake, we
have no doubt that they will soon give
us relief.

(referring to th river incursion) when
lie went away, but he returned to find
a greatef trouble; still ho was not de
sponelent, and gave us assurance that
every possible ellort would be put forth
to re-establish "all-rail" communica
tion at the earliest possible tlay. The
spans are 230 feet in length, and weigh
about 200 tons each, and will hare to
be manufactured in Chicago probably.
.he above named period of ninety elays
is doubtless not excessive for the re
placement of the iron spans; but we
think we can assure the public that a
secure "make-shift bridge will be open
in far less time. We will not put it at
thirty elays, but we would bet our bot
tom dollar ijf we had one) that sixty
days will not elapsa before Omaha will
cease to have both ends of the bridge.

"HOW AZIZ PASHA Dllil;.
Nkw Yoiik, August 2j. A war cor

graphic and thrilling eletails of the
death of a Turkish Pasha, one who
was one of the bravest and most intre
pid men iu the Ottoman army, and
w ho was killed at the recent engage
ment at Fsirdje. The letter was writ
ten by an aide-de-camp present at the
battle, and is as follows: I avail my
self of the occasion to give you some
details of the
LAST MOMENTS OF AZIZ PASHA.
Though one of the rarest Generals

committed some crimo, were brought
before him and he shot them with his
own revolver.

The officer of the advanced guard, a

covery. The General replied by draw
ing his sword, which he thrust though

"What! Are you afraid of the Rus

towards the forest. Suddenly he wa.s

two extreme ends of the forest. It is
