The carpenters en deavored to drive away the crowd and one of the wood gatherers, laborer named John Laws, fifty-fye years of age, was seen chop ping at one of the joists which were the main supports of the building, when sudden ly there was cracking of timber followed by 8 crash and the roof fell burying three of the unfortunate pilferers in the ruins. The firemen were summoned and went at once to work to clear the placs. Two dead bodies were taken out and identified as above One young boy named Louis Lacomb of 337 East Thirty-eighth street was found pinned to the ground by heavy timbers and after being ex- tricsted was found to be seriously injured. Uhlich, Q carpenter, who was eating his din- ner near the building, was also seriously in iured by being struck on the head by falling timber. The bodies were removed to the morgue and Coroner Kennedy will investi- gate the case.
