water pipes excavated where thele has
not been caving in Of the walls, but as
the happening occurred mostly at night,

O'Clock. when q fatal cave occurred
resulting in the death of William Ander-
son and the slight wounding OF Osca r
West.
From the contractor, Mix Cronin.
the particulars of the catastrophe are
given. Said Cronin: .'There was a
slight cave in the other night on the ave-
nue. trench, and Anderson. West and
Hanley were detailed to clean it out. The
three while working determined that the
walls looked unsafe, and Handley was
sent for plank to brace up the danger
ous side. but while he was gone the west
bank of the ditch to the length of twenty
feet, fell in upon Anderson and West"
All the workmen in the immediate
vicinity were speedily summoned to the
place of the accident, and large crowd
I of spectators were soon gathered at the
scene. West jumped in time to save
himself of injury save slight squeeze,
but it required fully fifteen min utes to
extrlcate Anderson. Medical aid was
promptly on hand, but the unfortunate
man breathed but few times after his
rescue. The deceased was q Dane
