TERRIFIC EXPLOSION. TRANSPORT DISABLED. MUNITIONS OF WAR UNABLE TO REACH FORT.

A thunderous boom was heard across the valley between New Hanover and Ambarino as the remnants of the Bacchus Bridge fell into the ravine below. The littered wreckage burned white hot and sent smoke billowing skywards. According to local officials, the bridge is thought to have been sabotaged with dynamite, although investigators are not discounting other possibilities. All military supplies destined for Fort Wallace are now idle, including dragoons, a hospital detachment and munitions of war sorely needed in the area.

The driver of a train that passed through there earlier that day reported seeing two men on top of the bridge acting suspiciously but, as yet, they have not been identified. Law enforcement officers have been combing the surrounding area looking for the perpetrators. The governor has ordered the assembly of a large team of workers that will be dispatched to start rebuilding the bridge as soon as possible.
