ZOO men on the payrolls who must be kept con-
SANITY employed, and are kept constantly EN-

There is limit 20 this sort of thinr when we
receive paper and pay out cash. Notwithstand-
ing tins, our condition was so good that the
President believed we would come through all
right and until last Friday in the 10 wears in
which we have been in business we have never
asked FOR renewal of our paper, nor would we
now ask renewals if even one-Quarter of the
amount due rs was paid. If we had to-day all

Should this registration be unduly delayed,
there will be revival of certain ugly
rumors.
The Barings are all right for three years,
but there are some firms that are not all
right. Hitherto the Barings have bolstered
them up, but they can do SO no longer, and
when the pinch comes they first must GO.
1t will be a long time before things are
righted, for the liquidation of the BarIngs'
securities is in reality millstone hung for
three years around the necks of fnanciers.

WASHINGTON, November 22.-The mo-

statue of Lafayette to occupy place in the
same park with that OF Genera, jackson has
again been settled. fhe commission. con-
sisting of the Secretary of War, the Libra
rian of Congress and the Architect of the
Capitol, spent several months selecting
site for the new statue that is now on its way
to this country, gift to America from the
French Republic.
It was at first arranged to have it placed
in the White House Iot, between the great
fountain and foot pavement, but somebody
objected to this, and Lafayette was moved
over into the park bearing his name, di-
rectly across the street. Although the gen.
orally accepted name of this place is Lafay-
cite Park, it is officially called jackson
Square, because in the center there is
great bronze statue on a stone pedestal of
the good old Democrat riding fiery horse,
which stands on his hind legs and paws the
air with his front ones.

ing q number of workmen in the ruins. One
man was killed instantly, one received NOR

were more or less injured. The following is

THE WOUNDED REMOVED.
The injured, with the exception of Nc
Clintock and Tighe, who were taken home,
were removed to st. Francis Hospital.
When the wall fell the noise made by the
crash was heard long distance. Police
Sergeant Bucklee, who lives opposite the
building, hastened to a neIghboring drug
store and telephoned to police headquarters.
Chief Murphy at once telephoned to the
hospitals and ambulances were sent to the
scene. The reserves from the First and Sec
ond precincts were sent out.
The wounded men were quickly taken out
of the debris, although the work of rescuing
them was particularly perilous. as other
parts of the wall were tottering in the high
wind and looked as If they might fall at any
moment. The body of Barrett, the man who
was killed, was found on the second floor,
pinned under a heavy beam, which lay
across his neck. Chief of Police Murphy,
Chief Engineer Fanier, of the fire depart
ment; Building Inspector James c. Clarke,
Fire Commissioner Brown and other officials
aided in directing the work OF rescuing the
wounded.
THE CONTRACTOR FRANTIC.
Michael Brenan, the contractor who was
erecting the building, was almost frantic.
He thought his brother was buried in the
ruins, and he acted for time as if he were
insane. Afterward he learned that his
brother was safe.
When the crash came the men who were
working in other portions OF the building
were terribly frightened. and fell over each
other in their haste 10 escape.
Rumors of the widest character were cir
culated Immediately after the accident.
One was that Is men had been killed. An
other, which seemed to have some founda-
ton, was that several children who were
playing near the wall had been killed.
Both rumors proved to be unfounded.
The street was practically closed to traffic
for the remainder of the day. The demol-
ished portion makes a break about 96 feet
long, in the shape of half moon. A small
section of the front wall, which was de-
cidedly in dangerous condition, was torn
down during the afternoon.

MILITIA MAY TURN OUT.

Possibility of the National Guard Attending
Gov.-Elect Pattison's Inauguration.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.i
HARRISBURG, November Ex-Governor
Beaver stated to-day that he had requested
Adjutant General Hastings to call on Gov
ernor-elect Pattison and inform him that the
head of the retiring administration was anx-
ious to extend any courtesy to his successor
that might suggest itself to the latter. In
his interview with his Adjutant General,
Governor Beave: mentioned the propriety
OF having the National Guard participate
in the Inauguration of the incoming Chief
Magistrate of the State, especially in view
of the great interest Mr.. Pattison had mani
tested in the success of the militia while he
was Governor of the Commonwealth. The
appearance of the militia at that time will
depend on the action of Mr.. Pattison.
Governor Beaver says he was opposed
to having military display when he was
iDaugurated. There was reason, he said, in
the argument that the weather was too cold
in January to justify the calling out of the
National Guard, but the troops were much
better prepared to resist the rigors of winter
now than they were when he was inducted
into Office, all having since then having
been provided with warm overeoats.
