APPALLING FATAL CATASTROPHE.
FOUR LIVES LOST.

Last night, about 12 o'clock, one of those appalling
accidents that but too of-en hap: An in the metropolis,
occurred in Little Sroan•alley, ono of the densely crowdod
alleys of the City, iltu .te in Little Ecll•a',lcy, Moorgatc-
street, by the fall of a houFe, occasioning the loss cf four
lives.

It appears from the particulars we have been en-
abled to glean from a hasty visit to the spot, that
about the hour above stated a tremendous crash WaS
heard in the vicinity of the alley, and immediately
a cloud of dust was observed, so dense as to
prevent the light from the gas lamp, being visible,
sceompanied with the most heart-rending and piercing
shrieks. This extraordinary and unexpected circum-
stance aroused the inmates cf the surrounding houses,
and drew Police-constable Hewett, 154, to the spot,
who immediately gave an alarm, and a stror g body of
reserve police, headed by Mr. Inspector Tedbunter,
were speedily on the spot. By this time it was known
that the house in question, 9, Little Sea!,-alley, inhabited
by three families, containing in all 1.6 senla, had Fl:d.
denly fallen down, burying in the ruins the whole of the
occupants, who were in bed sound aideep at the time re-
posing in fancied security. Oa the arrival of 'he
and a large number of persons who had been attracted
to the spot, a scene of the most appalling description
presented itself. The walls and rafters hal blocked up
most of the narrow approaches to the alley, and the
clouds of dust that continued to rise fa. s ono time p. e-
vented anything to he seen Nvlilst the fitful
light of the policemen's lAnterns but partially revealed
what l-id occurred and what was seen but increased the
Lars of all around. To this was added the sh:til scream
of women, the sterner ac-aunts of men crying fir help,
intermingled with the pla'ntive wail of children (all ,
scarcely awake to the reality of their danger), and ac-
companied with the subdued and stifled moans cf those
who were lying deep henca!h the mass cf ruins which
was crushing them to death. A thrill of horror seized
on every one, and the first feeling was na`urilly to saw
life, and in the eagerness to accomplish that desir-
able 0hj,.c,,, no doubt the sacrifice of life would
have been greater, had it not been for the cool and ad-
mirable conduct of Mr. Inspector Todhunter, who, seeing
the eager desire of the assembled persons to save their
fellow creatures from such a horrible and untimely
death, and fearing that thereby much and serious injury
might unintentionally be inflicted, by their acting on the
impulse of the ill:Alien+, caused them to be kept back,
whilst he set his ewn men to work, and succeeded in
securing the assistance of a number of laheurere, whom
he brought to work in a systematic manner. liv
the ekil'ul and careful manner in which the
labourers and policemen went to work a% entrance
was gained to the alley, and the dust having partially
cleared oft a ghastly scone presented itself. Intermixed
ruttish and toe scanty furniture of the unfor-
tunate sufferers, were to be seen the heads of some,
their faces blackened with dirt and their eyes strained
and !ladling with despair—others in crouching attitudes
from the debris over than, and others struggling to get
free, but all in a state of se•ni-nwlity. By great dili-
gence and persevcrante the men succeeded in taking
many of the sufferers from the ruins, and Mr.
Inspector Tudbunter having secured the ser
vices of Mr. Meetli, surgeon, of Grange raw, Holton,
who happened to be passing at the time, and also those
of Mr. Chields, surgeon to the puree ford, saw to their
i• juries at once, and had them clespt::,hed to St.. Bar-
tholome'N's dloFpital, where they were immediately-
attended to by Mr. Daley, the house surgeon. The
men succeeded by 3 o'clock in taking the whole of the
person:; from the ruins, hut unfortunately four were
(kw), having probably died from suffJcation, as no
bones were broken, nor were there any In uises about
the bodies of au extraordinary character. The others
with the exo• pLion of Julie King, a girl I 4 years of
age, whose head is much bruised, have fortunately
e-caped more frightened that hurt, and from inquiries
made this mnruing at the hospital there is every reason
tee believe most of them will be able to leave the hospi-
tal Ma few dap.

From the information we were enabled to glean tLis
morning un the spot, ii appears there was no iudicAti,n
of the house giving way when the inmates retired to
rest, but it was stated that one of the inmates noticed
on Sunday portions of the ceiling of her apartment
falling, and that she experienced a difficulty in shutting
and opening the doors and windows of Ler riom, which,
she sass, she communicated to her landlord ; but Le
anyif it i
had
i
dhee'nd' miirewa-toiu9;llv;as given him, and
Lave taken me sores
dweanticess
tthhaatt
to pre-Tent the possibility of such a melancholy and un-
fortunate accident occurring.

Mr. G. Barnes
Mr, J. Amor

The house is a very old one. It is three storeys high,
and is let out in rooms to poor families. Fortunately
three rooms only were occupied—the first and second
floors back, and the attic—or probably there would
have been a greater loss of life. The accident appears
to have happened from decay of the beams and ratters,
and by these giving way the floors fell one on the other,
bursting out the walls on all sides; and a remarkable
circumstance connected with this ancident is, that five
of the bodies were taken from the cellar, although the
ground floor was uneceupied. Tee house stands at the
corner of the alley, which contains a number of other
houses of the same dilapidated and dangerous description.
The alley is surrounded with other houses of the same
kind. All are densely mupied by the lower orders, and
from the appearance of the outer walls, which present
all kinds of fantastical shares, and stand anything but per-
pendicular, unless great care and caution be taken, we
should not be surprised at learning in the same quarter
of another of these lamentable calamities.
Mr. Woodthorpe, the district surveyor, wac early at,
the ruins, and gave instructions for the immediate se-
curing of the house TTo. g, Little Obvan-alley, which
adjoins the house which fell down last eight. 'the et.
cupants have been removed from it, but their little fur-
niture still remains in it, about which they natu-
rally feel ankioiA. 'rho following aro the names
of the persons injured, and taken to the hoe,
pital :—James Frederick King, Ann King, wa-,. King,
Agnes King, Julia King, Henry King; John Seibert,
Harriet Seibert ; and Jane Hadwin. A middle-aged
man named Palm,:r, and James Pullin, 16 years of age,
, 'rbornai Pullin, 9 years, were dead when taken to
the hospital ; and Elizabeth ged about 16
was quite dead when taken from the ruins, and was
ie-
moved to the dead-house of St. Stephen's pariah, where
the house is situate. _ _

SPORTING NOTES.

A LETTER FROM LEAMINGTON.

Mr. Merry certainly "kept the word of promise to the
car but broke it to the hope," if I understand that very
trite and not over explicit quotation. With a programme
presenting a long array of stakes, an average day's sport
was anticipated ; but the fields dwindled into nothing,
and the racing was scarcely good enough to excite inte-
rest or sustain curiosity. There was, however, the de-
feat of Quince by Lady Tattoo, and that incident put
book-makers in a good humour, otherwise they would
have been sadly chopfallen. After all, too, they didn't
find speculation very profitable ; and to one genuine
backer of horses there were twenty layers. Quince is
unquestionably only a moderate bore. Lady Tatton
was miler susp;cion until the morning of the race, but
her owner having laid heavily against the favourite, and
not b&n; to get out cf his money, he had no other
alternative than to run the mare for his beck. Imogene
cut up badly, and if I am not deceived she is in foal.
Mr. Sykes was as r,tial third. He will get nearer one
day, when opportunity serves. Teat game colt Gemma
di Verg,y won the Castle park Stakes ea-ily enough at
the finish, albeit M.D. seemed at one time about to
make a close race with him. Olympus won twice, and
although he was the favourite each time, the ring was
not displeased at the good fortune of his plucky and po-
pular owner.

By ti:o way, an accident occurred in the first race ;
but it was cot, I am r(.j.icid to state, of an a!arming
character.

People are on the tiptoe of expectation about the
weights Er the Cesarewitch and Cambridgeshire. They
in all probability not be publ,hed until the end of
the week.

Now to redeem my promise to give a few brief notes
on the " Doings at Derby."
Mr. T. Marsba!l, jun., is endeavouring to render
tbirgs pleasant, and to counteract as fir as possible the
disadvantages which arise from the clashing of the first
,lay of tbe meeting with the last day of the Warwick
fixture. Of course, until certain engagements are run
out at Warwick, it is impossible to arrive at a satisfac-
tory conclusion as to the probable result of some of the
events.

Fcr the Nursery Handicap, M.D. and Mongrel attract
my attention. According to Yorkshire Grey's running
with Lady Tatton at Stockton, his chance for the Trades-
rnens' Plate certainly seems somewhat formidable. I
shall therefore stand the Grey ; but should he be beaten,
St. Clare may be the winner.
Cannobie will win the Foal Stilres if he goes fit and
vol to tlze post. In his absence Bay Hilton may pull
through.
For the Chatsworth Stakes I shall select Whitelock
and Lucy L ickit. If Oakball were to oppose Gemma
di Vergy f r the Chatsworth Stakes, the race would be
peculiarly interesting. Und,r any circumstances, I shall
stick to the game "Jemmy."

BETTING A.T MANCHESTER.

The betting here contiLues dull. A few books are
,pea upon the Cesarewitch and Cambridgeshire Stakes,
but only upon a limited scale, the layers of the odds
being anxious to see the weights btf)re they commence
operati, ns in earne t. We may remark that, for the
latt:r event, Good Friday has received considerable sup-
port in this market. To-day, the disposition to back
Quince for the Leamington Stakes grew quite into a
n,,a,nia, any one atteior6ng to invest upon any h, rse,
bar the favourite, was met with offert of neafy any
Ads ; however it happened, as it frequently does in
racing, that this great "pot" was doomed to be bowled
over by Lady Tattoo, who woo by three lengths. The
Doncaster St. Leger is sAdom meqoned, but less
t' an 2 to 1 would not be taken about either of the fa-
vourites.

AQUATICS.

LONDON UNITY ROWING CLUB.

The members of this rani Hy advancing tradesmen's
,f!ut-, who -held their meetings at Mr. C. Morton's, the
Cat terhury Hall, Lambeth, had a mrst Ppiiited contest
to Merida-, over the usual aquatic course, from Putney-
hride to BArnes Pailway-bridg,-e, Citizen K had been
chartered by Hubert Bains, mast, oar, and scull maker,
f Larnbtli, to accompany the race, and was filed with
a very reTectable party of, chit fly, the friends of the
onpetitore. A pntion of the Hungarian band from
the Cant(rhury Ball were on boar,,, and executed soave
very fine pieces of music. The match was for Silver
prizes for the first and second boats, and the bllowing
was the result :

Mr. C. Morton having kindly consented to act as um-
pire, -"rafted the men at about 4 o'clock. They went off
at a rplendid pace, Yellow, Black, and Red taking the
lead alternately in the first twenty strokes', when Red
went in front, and held that position by about a yard
for the next 100 yards. Black then went in front,
and kept it tiroughout, the match resting among the
other four for the second prize. Red, after being pressed
by Black, kept the second place ; but Yellow 'came up,
and the finest race that has been fur some time among
tradesmen followed. _

Yellow and Red each exerted every nerve to gain the
second place, White being about a length behind. In
this position they got to Craven Cottage, where White
came up between Yellow and Red, and all three were
oar and oar to the Crab Tree. Here Yellow began to
shoot in first, followed by White, when, owing to the
proximty of the boats, a foul between Yellow and Red,
and afterwards among all three, was inevitable. Blue,
taking advantage of this, became level with them ; but
when they were all clear again, fell astern. bite
having disengaged themselves first ran two lengths in
adve.•.ca of the others, pursued by Yellow, whore pluck
was very great, and at Hammersmith-bridge they had
shortened the distance between themselves and White
to a length. A most exciting and gallant contest fol-
lowed, Yellow frequently drew up and half overlapped
White, and in this way they rowed to Chiswick Eyot,
where Yellow gradually went by them, White still
hanging on their stern nearly all the way to Barnes,
when Yellow gradually left them. B'ack won the first
prize by tight, or ten boats' length, and Yellow the
second, beating White by a length.

Lord and Lady Ilelland eetertained at dinner at Hol-
and House, on Sunday, the Marquis of Lansdowne, the
Due de Calve, the Earl of Shelburne, Mr. Buckley, and
Dr. Quin.
TUE CHARGE OF MI:HIDER AT NEWCASTLE-Mir-TYNE.
—An inquest wan held on the body of Ann Fleming on
Monday, at the Gloucester Inn, Newcastle upon-Tyne,
before Mr. J. T. Hoyle, deputy-coroner. The evidence
diSdiCged ri dreedful amount of barbarity inflicted upon
the unfortunate wettian by Wm. Fleming, the man
with whom she had cohablf,o4 An outline of the case
has already appeared in The &tut. Mr. L. W. Rayne,
Wren to the police force, who made a post mortem
examinatioe off' the body, found several marks of exter-
nal violence, sortie tettent„ and others of older date;. and
accerding to the other witnesses Fleming had once
Kicked her in the chest during the Newcastle Races,
and about a year age he bad '(Area her a cut with a
knife across her bowels. Mr. Rayne was of opinion
that death was causedby infainmation of the right lung,
