and Boswell.
OF these the two others killed have not
been Unidentified. Most Of the injured
win recover. The building was located on
the northeast corner of Second street and
First avenue south 1t was composed of
retaining walls with floors supported by
two paralle rows of heavy wooden columns
resting upon. large square timbers running
from the front to the rear of the building.
Here in this woodwork was the weak spot.
There were no cross-ties and when the
inner wall was removed the weight of the
accumulated material on the floors caused
them to sag outward until they literally
pulled out and toppled over into the adj
joining hole, roof and floors with their
burden of brick. Concerning the re-
sponsibility for the accident, Building
Inspector Pardee says a permit TO build
an addition was refused April TO- on ac-
count of objections to removing fire walls.
Later on objections were made as tothe
manner in which the walls were being taken
down. They were excavating and tearing
out the wall without a permit. II is
questionable proceeding to take the wall
down in that manner. f. ID. Orff, archi-
tect, says he thinks the fall was caused by
workmen digging under one of the lines
of wooden supports, which were put up as
fast as the wall was taken out. Workmen
also used a battering ram in removing the
stone wall in the basement, and this Is
thought to have Jared the building. 1T
is also true Mr.. Orff continued, "that
the men loaded more brick on the roof of
the building than they should, thus push
ing the roof and causing the fall of the
whole wall. George A. Bracket owner Of

in regard to the cause of the accident.
The damage to the structure is about
