FALL OF Two HOUSES IN THE BLACKFRIARS-
RoAD.—Yesterday, soon after noon, considerable alarm
was created in consequence of the fall of two houses, one
numbered 18, York-street, Blackfriars-road, and the other
adjoining it in William-street, and its being stated that
soma of the workmen had been buried beneath the ruins.
These two houses formed part of a block of buildings that
were being pulled down for the construction of the
Charing-cross Railway. The roofs had been removed, and a
great portion of the wood work taken away, and the men
employed had scarcely gone to dinner when they fell with
a terrific crash, levelling to the ground the stout hoarding
around them. Had the fall occurred ten minutes sooner,
a fearful sacrifice of life must have been the result, as more
than 20 men were employed in the houses,
