street caved in with heavy crash
about three o CLOCK this morning. The
building was four-story brick. In
it were 10000 barrels of beer and q lot
of new and very valuable machinery.
The immense weight OF the beer, 1t is
supposed, caused the support OF the
floor to give way and the building
collapsed from the roof to the cellar.
Falling walls crushed beer barrels and
torrents Of the malt fluid ran down the
street and completely flooded the cell
lar. The loss Is over 800 600.

dO hklbLL DEATH OF N NEWARK WOMAN FROM
HYDRoPHoBIA.
Mrs. Annie Farrell, Of No. 452 Court street,
Newark, N. j., died at five p. m. yesterday of
hydrophobia. About ten weeks ago she was
passing along Norfolk street, when she saw q
small white dog laying in the gutter, moaning
with pain. She took pity on the animal and
STOPPING down patted 1t on the head. The dog
was quiet for moment, and them being seized
with a spasm, buried its teeth in the woman's
right hand. Mrs. Farrell then noticed that the
dogs mouth was covered with foam, and she
became apprehensive. She hurried home and
dressed the wound, which apparently healed.
Last Sunday morning Mrs. Farrell had mus
cuiar contraction of the throat. which nearly
choked her, as she approached vessel of water.
A homeopathic physician was called in and at
tended her during the night. She grew rapidly
worse and developsd unmistakable symptoms
of hydrophobia. Thick, frOthy saliva covered
her lips. In her spasms every muscle of her
body would contract; her throat would swell
until the veins stood out. and she gave utter
ance to quick barking sounds. DIR. Dieffenbach,
her physician, administered hypodermic in
jections of morphia, which gave her partial re-
lief. The scars of the bite on her hand were
still visible, and were slightly red. Yesterday
several physicians called at the house to study
the disease.
