Catastrophe in New Y0rk-Nany Persons
Killed and Injured.
New YORK, April 21st-A fatal accident
occurred at Madison Square Garden tonight,
causing intense excitement. About 500 peo-
pie were attending the Hahenemann Hospi-
tai Fair in the bulldog, when, at $50, the
| front on Madison avenue gave way, falling
outwards, part of the roof also falling in with
a crash. Several persons were killed and a
large number injured The part of the build
ing which fell was mainly occupied as an art
gallery. The pictures were loaned, and in
sured for $50, 600 against fire alone, but as
far as known not against accidents. 1t is
| likely that the pictures are so much injured
as to be almost worthless. 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 both of these rooms,
which were filled with people. The loss by
the accident apart from the loss to life is
very great. The loss on the building is es-
timated at from $4,000 to 0,000 The
building is owned by VIM. II. Vanderbilt,
and was insured against fire.
| Colonel Tileston, who was among the
wounded, and died from the injuries re-
ceived, was the owner of ranch at Los
Angeles, Cal.
New YORK, April 21st.-About so per
cent of the art collection in Madison Square
Garden has been recovered, not much dam
aged Only ten or twelve pictures were en-
tirely destroyed. Four victims in all have
| died.
