A frightful and fatal accident was
the falling Of the new Winnebago
County Court House, at Rockford,
Ill, last Friday, while upward OF
twenty-five men were at work upon
1t. There was no notices cloud Of
dust and dull roar as death came on
ly attracting attention.
The style of the building was
French Venetian, of the Renaissance
type. 1t had two pavilions and CEN
ter dome over the front entrance.
The dome was ll9 feet from the
ground. The dome was supported by
the front walls on the north side and
two iron columns from ten to twelve
inches in diameter on the inner side.
These columns rested upon a brick
wall going up from the ground
floor TO the floor of the courtroom.
The walls were about thirty feet high,
and, it appears, were entirely inade-
ouate to hold the immense weight of
the iron pillars and the massive ma
soury of the dome, which rested up
on the pillars. Upon the top of the
iron columns was a wrought-iron
girder, upon which was laid the
veneer and brick of the dome. II APP
pears that the lower brick walls were
crushed by the weight Of the upper
masonry and crumhled like so much
rotten mortar, bringing with them
the entire interior of the building,
taking all the rafters, the corrugated
iron ceiling of every room, with its
concrete filling, and the iron joists.
The scaffolding came down in one
terrific mass bringing with 1t nearly
all the workmen who were operating
upon the top Of the building.
The fall occurred just before noon,
the adjacent streets being crowded
with people, who rushed to the scene
to find men shrieking for aid which
was only rendered at further risk of
life Eleven persons were either kill
ed outright or so badly injured that
they soon died, and a number of 9TH
ers sustained dangerous wounds.
Timothy Flanagan. mason who was
pointing up the very top of the front,
sprans at guy rope of the huge der
rick, and fell over hundred feet to
the ground. The Superintendent and
his assistant jumped upon the west
wall, and were left standing there
safe by the fraction of a second.
The blame for the disaster is not
vet fully awarded. The plans and
specifications of the architect, Mr..
Cav, of Chicago, are said to have been
fully carried out-while he on his
part asks suspension of Judgment
until he can he heard. The founda-
ton for the columns on the sides
which stood were of Joliet limestone
which will safely carry 5000 pounds
to the square inch. The columns sus-
tanning the immense ornamental cor
nice and the dome OH the other sides
were on 30 feet of brick wall between
the basement and the floor of the
court room which il said to have been
able to sustain but 81 pounds per
sauare inch,

The Burlington Uaukeye, which
has often been wrongly classified a.
belonging To the brigade of Iowa news
papers which the Des Moines Register
has been tis not now striving to mar
shall for an insensate crusade against
President Hayes Southern policy, in
its issue of the 18th inst, comes to the
front with the following sensible edi-
torial remarks:
We greatly mistake the drift Of Re-
publican sentiment in Iowa If the
number who are thus willing to give
the new policy fair trial is not rap
idly increasing. The signs of this are
seen in the spirit Of the opposition
that shows itself in the newspapers
which were at once arrayed against
the policy with so much yigor, and
also in the tone of the public discus
sion which is heard everywhere
among the people. The keen disap.
pointment felt because Chamberlain
and Packard were not sustained is
wearing away. Had oui
State Convention been held two weeks
ago, undoubtedly the action of the
| President would have been sharply
criticised, and an earnest and excited
if not an angry discussion, would have
| taken place on resolutions which
would have certainly been introduced
denouncing his Southern policy. But
already the leading opponents of tha,
| policy are declaring that it ought not
to be and must not be made test in
reference to candidates. This is right
1t would be exceedingly unjust to dis
criminate against any one because o
his position on this question, and par
ticularly so as il is now a question o
the past. How would it pro
mote the peace and concord which
should prevail in all parts of the coun
try? How would it help the coloreC
men, who must always be the object.
of sympathy and sincere regard OF
the part of Republicans? How, il
short, could it possibly benefit any
body or advance any object whatever
We conclude, then, that it will b,
wise for the Republicans of Iowa {.
keep out OF their convention this ap
pie of discord. That it will be wis
for them still to trust and to sustain
the President of their choice, with tn
conviction that time will, as it did 9,
often In the case of Lincoln, yindicat
his action and illustrate his integrit,
and his faithfulness to the great prin
ciples Of the Republican party.
