MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT IN BALTIMORE

MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT IN BALTIMORE
One Nan Killed and Three Seriously Injured-
The neghoorhood Of the corner of Charles ana
Chase str' cts was thrown into state of in
tense excitement between eight and nine
o clock yesterday morning by the falling Of a
part Of the partition walls Of the new house Of
mr.. Henry James, located ON the southwest
corner OF the streets named, and the killing Of
one man and severely inJuring OF three others.
The building is a double house, three stories
high, with a mansard roof. A hall runs
through the centre Of the building, and there
is nine inch wall on each side OF IL. These
walls were not completed, and that portion of
the chimneys, width Of some twelve TO fifteen
feet, fell with tremendous crash, and
carried with IT all the joists and girders at
tsehsd tse to IT; The doorway leading 70 the par.
the arch gave way, which caused the partition
70 fall. The drawing Of the joists 20 suddenly
caused the north Wall OF the building, on Chase
as practicable. At the time Of the accident
there were four bricklayers at work ON the
wall, and three negro bod carriers were on the
ladders ascending or descending. Three of the
bricklayers jumped and escaped injury, but
the fourth, John Orozier, was carried down
with the wreck, and with the three negro bod
carriers, was buried under the debris. With
begun, and after 0 short labor Mr.. Croner
was taken out His throat was terribly
lacerated, though fortunately none Of the large
were also badly lacerated. He was removed
to his home, No. q North Caroline street,
where he received surgical attention The next
reacAed wae Lew williams, q negro hod.car.
rier. His skull was fractured, and his body
and limbs were badly crushed and bruised.
He resides At No. IS sarah Ann street, and such
10 the nature Of his injuries that NO hope il had
for his recovery. Charles Edwards, negro hod-
Garner, was the next taken ont, and he was
also severely bruised and lacerated about the
head and body. He resides at No. 6e Warner
street The last found was BENJAMIN Locke,
negro hod.corrler, who was killed He Was
under the whole Of the debris, and o large

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL,

The chief feature Of Wall street yesterday
was the activity in the money market. The
Government dealers generally got supplied at Z
per cent currency, but among the stock brokers
the rate was plump per cent. gold The gold
speculation, Of course, absorbs a large amount
Of currency, and this had something to do with
the activity; but the banks were calling in Their
gold for the Statement, which shifted a great
many leans. and this may trace the principal
difhculiy. There was a good deal of talk about
lock up OF S5,0O0,00O, but this wac only the
offspring OF proposition made 70 a financial
Institution by prominent broker. which Wa J
not accepted. This lock up story caused some
uneasiness on the street, and probably aggra-
waited the strIngency q little.
