MONTREAL. January 1s.-The west wall
of the ice palace tumbled down yeseerday
afternoon with crash that surprised the
dwellers in the Windsor Hotel.
The heavy blocks of ice had melted
away under sun which played havoc
with the foundations, and now the palace,
which yesterday was thing of beauty, is
crumbling and dripping away, turning the
square into a veriiable sea of mud
Although ooly the west side succumbed
to the heat, the other three sides are com.
pletely ruined and present very dilapida-
ted appearances, being propped up with
beams, while between the blocks big
wedges have been driven to fill the spaces
left by the melting CT the ice. A gang OF
workmen was put on this afternoon 10
