An unknown man.
| DR.. j. l.. Reed, one Of the oldest physi-
clans in the city, was on the second floor
| of the Weldin building. He was caught
by the falling WALL and is lying dead IN
der the elevator cage in the cellar.
The elevator boy in Weldin's store is
also pinned beneath the elevator. For a
long time his agonizing cries for relief
could be heard. His voice has not been
heard for nearly, an hour, and he is
| thought to be dead.
| At half past nine O'Clock tonight the
dead body of a colored boy, name I'M
! known, was taken out and removed to the
morgue. A few moments later the eleva-
| tor boy, James Garin, employed in We'll
| denis store, was removed. He was IN
| conscious, and is probably fatally in
jured. A rescuing party are now engaged
/ in tearing away the foundation wall from
under another part of Weldin's building.
Voices calling for assistance are heard at
| frequent intervals.
Among the pitiful sights to be seen at
| the ruins are the feet of two men sticking
up through the debris. 1t is impossible
| to get them out until trembling wall
that appears to be ready to fall has been
secured. The imprisoned victims are I'M
| doubtedly dead.
| 1t is believed that there are three other
| persons buried underneath the debris at
the same place.
George L. Holiday, who had an Office in
the rear of Weldin's building, is among
the missing, and it is feared that he has
been killed. Mr.. Holiday was president
of the Pittsburgh Select Council, and one
of the most prominent citizens of the
| city.
