Adventurers’
“Terror of Brooklyn Bridge™
By FLOYD GIBBONS
Famous Headline Hunter
Y OU'VE heard stories of panics in halls and theaters—of panics
on sinking ships and in crowded circus tents, but it's a good idea
to remember that not all panics happen in enclosed spaces. Here's
one that happened out in the open. An eye-witness account of the
historic panic of Brooklyn bridge, told by a newspaper man of the
day—Timothy T. O'Connell, of Elmhurst, L. I
Maybe some of you remember that panic. Maybe some of you
were caught in it. It was on Decoration Day, 1883, that Brooklyn
bridge was thrown open to the public. Tim O'Connell was just a cub
reporter then, and he felt pretty proud when his paper sent him to
cover the ceremony.
“But 1 might not have been so proud,’ he says, or so keen on
going, if I'd known what was going to happen.”
It Was a Happy, Chattering Throng.
Things went smoothly enough for a time, Tim says. The crowd
was the usual mob of sightseers, drawn from all walks of life. There
were doctors and laborers, butchers and bakers, parents with their
children, clerks with their sweethearts, and old folks who gazed in
awe at the huge trellises and networks of great twisted-wire cables.
They thronged the big new bridge, chattering and laughing. “It was
an orderly, leisurely crowd,” Tim says, ‘until suddenly some idiot
yelled: ‘THE BRIDGE IS FALLING DOWN."
Such words, in a place like that, are nothing short of verbal
murder. The cry was taken up by others. There were shouts of fire
and an ominous buzzing of rumors through the crowd. Faces turned
white. There was a moment when a stupor seemed to settle over
the walks jammed with pedestrians, THEN, SUDDENLY, CAME PAN-
DEMONIUM-—-—-CHAOS!
“Men in panic” says Tim, “are disposed to believe anything
they hear. The alarms struck terror into thousands of hearts.
There followed a scene scarcely to be conceived—or believed
by anyone who did not witness it. Wild tumult! Howling and
shouting! The shrieks of women, some of them with small chil-
dren in their arms, who were being jostled, knocked down and
trampled by others in their wild haste to reach the end of the
bridge.
Turned Into a Brutal, Selfish Mob.
“In the mad rush to save themselves, people stripped themselves
of all their burdens. Handbags, canes, umbrellas, were thrown aside.
They got under foot making it all the more difficult for those in the
Panie Stricken Throng on the Bridge
rear to advance. The crowd surged, and fought, and trampled. A
father seized his baby and lifted it from its carriage just in the nick
of time. Ten seconds later the carriage was demolished."
No pen could describe all the horror and brutality of that scene,
and Tim O'Connell doesn’t claim that his old typewriter can either.
But like a good reporter he caught the spirit of terror as it stalked
across that bridge and sent it to me in whole pages of fine, moving
description. The panic had started near the Manhattan end of the
bridge. There, a deadlock of tightly packed humanity was jamming
the exit. Before two minutes had passed, the dread, maniacal fear
had spread to the center of the span and more thousands of people
rushed toward the Manhattan side, doubling the congestion and adding
to the havoc.
The crowd now as one pulsing, terror-stricken sea of heads
milling, fighting, screaming. Stalwart men trampled over
prosirate bodies. ONE GIANT OF A MAN, GONE COM-
PLETELY BERSERK, PLUNGED THROUGH THE STRUG-
GLING MASS, KENOCKING OVER WOMEN AND CHILDREN.
As far as Tim could see there was nothing but bediam, and
shrieking and scuffling of feet. To save himself from being
ground under them, Tim started to climb a trellis of wire cable.
Gthers followed his lead and Tim was forced to climb higher
to enable them to get a footheld. Clinging there with bruised
hands he looked down on the scene, and then, like a good
reporter HE STARTED TO TAKE NOTES.
Tough Job for an Ambitious Reporter.
His notebook had fallen from his rocket, so he tore off his cuff
—a stiff, three-inch one of the kind worn at that period. He couldn't
balance it against the swaying cable—couldn’t hold it and write with
He
tore out the stiff bosom of his shirt and tried that. That too slipped
i
enveloped him in its suffocating folds. He was getting dizzy, and
fixed his eye on the horizon to steady himself. His head was spinning,
the matter--that they were victims of a false alarm.
Tim and his companions on the trellis were assisted down
to the roadway, their hands torn and bleeding. On the way down
Tim rescued a kitten that was mewing pitifully—carried it with
him into the improvised ambulance. The ambulance took them
to a nearby saloon where they were given an alcoholic restora-
tive and the kitten got a dish of milk.
“Some months later,”
in her closed, drowsy eyes. That's gratitude for you. But for me it
would have been floating in a watery grave.”

The cowbord ranks as a prime

lazy and tricky and possibly one
of the first of the hitch-hikers. The
bird is usually observed following
along in the wake of cows, picking
up insects which are disturbed by
the cow while grazing. With its
food thus easily acquired, the cow-

to other forms of labor-saving.
