Four steamships sailing to day and
Tomorrow for Europe will lake nearly
100, 900 bushels of grain, and the guam
tity Of fresh beef will not be far short
OF one million pounds, while of canned
goods, pork, salt beef, bacon, cheese,

CHICAGO, May II.
A special to the Evening Journal
from Rockford says: No bodies have
been taken out since Warren was ex-
treated last night. Chief Lukin and
the fire department did efficient sci.
vice and worked by relays all night.
A donkey engine is expected hourly
to lift the heavy blocks. Architect
Gay came last night. The Coroner's
jury this morning received two
additional bodies. They have taken
no steps toward fixing the response
bility, but have sent to Chicago for
two engineer x perts and to secure the
plans and specifications to mold until
the examination is complete. They
meet again at i o'clock P. NJ. Richard
son has long been dissatisfied with the
specifications for the roof and now
blames himself for not throwing up
the contract entirely. The feeling
here is deep, but a general disposition
is manifested to await investigation
before passing judgment. a shock
was felt in the building an hour before
the fall, but did not cause any alarm.
Architect Gay, who designed the
Rockford, Illinois, Courthouse, which
fell yesterday, left last night for Rock
ford in response to kilograms from
officials there, aud his statement can
not be obtained. The papers, how
ever, are publishing accounts of mis-
haps to Chicago buildings of which he
has been the architect, and they make
a formidable list. Prominent archi-
tects express great doubt as to his tit.
ness to draft plans and specifications.
The feeling both here and in Rock
ford seems TO be that contractor Rich
ardson is comparatively blameless, he
having at his W expense placed
strong works inewhat he considered
the weak places, and having pleaded
with the building company for strong
er material, but in vain.
