SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
At MADISON SQUARE GARDEN, ny.

NEW YORK, April 81. A serious disaster
occurred at Madison Square Garden. Madi-
son avenue end of the building has fallen in.
The police, firemen and ambulance corps are
at work removing the debris and taking out
the injured. fair in aid of the Hahnemann
Hospital, was in progress at the time. 4
large number of people have been carried out
of the building The neighborhood is
thronged with excited people. There were
about 500 in the building. The number
killed and wounded will number at least ten,
the killed already found being three and
wounded seven. Mrs. Hegeman. promi-
nent lady manager of the fair. and wife of
the director of the United States Life Insur-
ance Company, was the first person taken
out. She was taken to Bellevue Hospital.
She is still alive. The part of the building
which fell was mainly occupied as art gal
leries. The pictures were loaned. and were
insured for Sl50.o0o against fire alone. They
are probably SO much injured as TO be almost
worthless.
The people in the art gllery received suf-
fcient warning TO make their escape, but the
accident occurred before those in the dane
ing hall on the same floor, could be warned,
and when the wall fell into the street. one
end of the roof caved in upon their heads
burying many out of sight. Screams and
groans were heard on every side and panic
among those who had not been injured, fol-
lowed. A moment after the accident, the
floor of the dancing room settled and there
was general stampede down the staircase
to the main part of the garden. A num-
Der injured had been taken away to their
homes before the extent of their injuries
could be learned. The cause of the accident
is supposed To be the pressure OF the floor Of
the dancing hall and art gallery upon the
wall which supported it. At 2 o'clock, A. NJ,
the body of another victim had been sent to
the morgue

Out of the 800, 900 tons of ice cut on the
Kennebec and Cathance rivers the past sea-
son, only about $4,000 tons remain unsold.
About 1000 tons of ice were cut and housed
around Augusta. The greater part of this lot
is suitable only for packing purposes, al
though there is some ice of excellent quality
among the rest. Up to date George f. Weeks,
ESQ, has sent off five cargoes, aggregating
1900 tons, to New Haven and New York par
ties Haines & Dewitt have despatched three
schooners to Philadelphia; Cross 4 Co. have
shipped about 400 tons to Narragansett Pier.
Ice for early shipment sells on board the
schooners at prices varying from Sl.25 to 81
per ton; ice for late shipment, at about SO.
Freights are quite reasonable. From Angus
ia to Philadelphia the price asked is 81. Two
steam tug companies are competing for the
ice carving trade of the Kennebec. Mr..
Weeks has about 1000 tons of ice cut in this
vicinity. of very fine quality, for late ship
ment. Some 1000 tons of A i ice have been
nut ND by Weeks & Morse and the Bond
Brook Ice Co., to cool the palates of Augusta

with which the fire spread. only very smal
amount OF stock, worth perhaps 81 900. wa,

several buildings somewhat damaged.
The brick building was OCCUPIED bv w
Morgan Co., of Lynn, manufacturers of
boots and shoes. This firm has been doing
a large and prosperous business in Richmond

The loss on Hagar Brothers shop and con-
tents amounts to about $4,000: fully in

for $4,000. W. F. Morgan & Co.'S loss
will range from 5000 to $4,000.
The blow to the manufacturing interests Of
Richmond was very severe. The shoe facto-

wealthy gentlemen stand ready to erect a new
building if Morgan & Co. will remain with
them.
