According to information secured by Mesrs. Burns and Schweda at Sturgeon Bay the three occupants of the car were thrown across the electric wires by the collision of the car with the bridge railing, which permitted the wheels on one side of the car to go off the bridge. When found the three bodies were resting with heads on the wires and feet in the automobile. Miss Zander's body had no mark, except for a groove on the chin where the wire had rested as the current killed her.

Mrs. Zentner today was reported out of danger but sill weak from her experience.Some little trouble had been experienced with the car owing to freezing of the radiator Saturday and yesterday afternoon Mrs. Zentner, while Dr. and Mrs. Luhman were both resting, went to the garage and had started the car and had been overcome by gas. Mrs. Luhman, resting in the house awakened from a nap much earlier than usual when she rested after lunch, and visited the basement to look after the furnace. Through a window, which leads from the basement into the garage, she noticed that the garage was filled with smoke and heard the engine of the car running. Awakening Dr. Luhman she told him of the discovery and sought to summon Mrs. Zentner from her room to shut off the engine. Find Daughter Gone Mrs. Zentner was not in her room and apprehension was aroused when the maid reported having seen her enter the garage some time before. Dr. Luhman hurrying to the garage opened the doors to be met by a screen of smoke and gas but failed to find Mrs. Zentner. He returned a second time and opening the car door found his daughter unconscious on the floor of the car, probably having been overcome before she could shut the engine off. The opposite door of the car was open and Mrs. Zentner had evidently endeavored to leave the car when the she felt the effects of the gas but had been overcome before she could do so.
