not treated her well; he alluded to the
coldness OF her letters written from

THE RICHMOND ACCIDENT,
FURTHER PARTICULARS
SIXTY PERSONS KILLED
Four Hundred Wounded.

RICHMOND, Va, April 2S.-Last night
a great meeting Of the ChahoOn and
Ellvson police was held, in which reso'
lutione of respect to the memory OF
their deceased brethren we're adopted
and il was agreed that both parties
should Join in and participate in the
funeral ceremonies
Telegrans were being received from
every portion of the State and country
inauiring after ths welfare Of friends
and relatives in the city and that, with
press reports and incessant messages
sent and received, the operators here
were taxed to their utmost capacity.
To-day business will be suspended 80
that every citizen can devote himself to
the memory Of the dead.
II il needless to say that no decision
has been rendered in the Mayoralty
case and it is now doubtful when II
will he delivered
Both branches of the General Assem-,
blv held session at the Exchange Ho,
tel and merely met and adjourned until
today at the hour Of 10 o'clock, 10
avoid anv interruption in the proceed
ings.
II is believed the Capital will now be
abandoned as q public institution. IL
was built in 1892, and i now nearly IS
years old.
The burning of the theatre in 1911,
when a large number of persons, IN
cluding many ladies, perished is the
only disaster in the history of this city
that affords the slightest parallel to the
terrible calamity of rhi> long to he re-
memhered day.
1t is apparent the calamity i much
greater than vet reported. The mum
her of killed will reach over sixty and
the wounded is known to he over 400.
The scene of despair and anguish in the
vicinity of the scene is beyond dcscrll-
ton. Dark mourning covers the whole
city.
RICHMOND, April 2S.-ro-day all the
houses Of business were cloSed.in conse,
ouence of the calamity ut the CaWto!.
The streets are filled with funeral cor
teccs. In those of the dead policemen
both sets of the police joined, and all
the late political feeling was forgotten.
The bells of the city tolled all day,
and the streets looked like Sunday.
About seven thousand people assembled
in the Park, hearing addresses Of con
doIcnce from Governor Walker, Judge
Orr, Judge Crump, Governor Wise and
others.
Thomas :. Baldwin, one Of the IN
iured dicl today. lIewas from Newark,
New jersey.
Both houses Of the Legislature held
informal meetings and agreed 10 unite
with the citizens in any general funeral
procedure

The terrible calamity which bctel
Richmond on Tuesday. was more dis
astrous and appalling than at first re-
ported. More than sixty persons were
killed, and four hundred wounded.
Among the latter was Hon. THOMAS :.
BoCoCK, for sixteen years member OF
the United States Congress from Nir,
ginia, and Speaker OF the Confederate
House Of Representatives. At the
burning of the Theatre in ISL, fifty
one persons were consumed. This dis
aster. therefore, is far greater than the
former.
