A Brick Wall Falls Upon Workmen Re-
moving Fire Debris

ST. PAUL, Dec. Eight instantly killed, three
fatally injured and four severely cut and
bruised is the record which can to q large ex-
tent be credited to the billiards. advent in this
city today wall already weakened by having
the supports burned away became top-heavy
when the supporting debris was removed from
against it, and went over with a crash before q
gale, with the result stated. Fifteen men were
working close to the center wall in the burned
out Shepard building, on East Third street,
when the wall without warning crashed down
on them, burying them beneath the ruins and
killing or stunning all. Not one escaped, and
all were SO terribly mashed and mangled that it
was with much difficulty that they were
identified.
The list OF the killed is: Edward Wilcox con-
tractor; John Adams, Charles Kstritski John
Koliski, Frank Zwel, Charles Klies, Frank
Marks Peter Larson.
The fatally injured are: Frank Teshlor,
Henry Murphy, John Maurer.
The injured are: Frank sipiter, Thomas Mon
ter, Mike Mcnamara, stephen Rhode.
All the patrol wagons in the city were at once
summoned and the police attempted to organize
the laborers who were not under the wall and
get them to work rescuing the injured. The
men were wild with excitement, and 1t was
long time before more than half a
dozen could be induced to go TO work.
There were no groans or cries from the injured
as the poor fellows were extricated from the
ruins by their fellow-workmen. Not one had
retained consciousness. The most careful hand
ling possible seemed TO be torture most horrible.
for the rescuers were not well drilled 10 the
grewsome task at the outset, and did not work
together as they did after. In their discon-
certed efforts they seemed at times to be pulling
the men almost to pieces. The faces of the
workmen were almost as ghastly as If they had
been dead themselves. The majority were un-
der the south side of the WALL and here the
heaviest part of the wall fell. Only two were
taken ont from the north side

NEW oRK, Dec. 4-The Tribune's Haver-
straw dispatch says: Twelve barges loaded
with brick, towed by the Cornell Towing
Company's steamboat Townsend, while
coming down the Hudson, were upset
opposite Croton point about o'clock this
evening. and about twenty persons
drowned. When at Croton point the
swash of the river was so great that the
tug was compelled to round to. thus fore
ing the barges to ride each other. Being
loaded and the tide washing high, they
were immediately upset There were sixty
men on the twelve barges. and only about
thirty have come to shore. The accident
Is attributed by many to the carelessness
OF the pilot of the tug. ". c. Curran, a
boatman on the barge Louise, who has
just revived from his swim ashore, says:
We were playing the concertina in the cabin
at the time OF the accident. I ran on deck only
TO see one scow run top of another. The
boats did not sink, but toppled over Upon each
barge were five men, making sixty in all. OF
these only about thirty have come ashore.
Tugs are out all over the river in hopes
OF saving any who may have chung to the
bottom of the capsized barges, but little
hope is entertained as to the safety of the
remainder of the crew. Twelve are known
to have been drowned from different boats.
Great excitement prevails in the village.
The Herdld's account of the Hudson
river drowning disaster says it is thought
that twenty lives were lost. Ten bodies
were recovered up to midnight. The storm
came upon the barges just as they reached
Croton point, and the waves were so heavy
that they began to wash over the tugboat.
TO save her from laundering it was neces-
sary to heave to with her head to the sea.
The moment the tow line was cast off the
barges began to drive into one another and
knock about. Some had holes stove
in their sides and sank; some
caught one against another, and the
combined force of wind and waves
turned them bottom up. No warning
seems to have been given by the tug boat
people. When they hove to. the first
thing the men on the barges knew was
that their boats were smashing into each
other, upsetting and sinking. Some had
time to rush on deck and jump into the
water. Many must have been caught in
the cabins like rats in trap and drowned.
In all the barges there were at least fifty
persons and only thirty have come ashore
alive. 1t may be that some men managed
to climb on the capsized barges. At 1
O'Clock this morning the tugs which went
out to the rescue had not returned.

MRS. SURRATT's CASE.
Father Walter Writes a Paper Declaring His
Belief in Her Innocence.

Father Walter Writes a Paper Declaring His
Belief in Her Innocence.
Last night before meeting of the Catholic
Historical Society in New York a paper written
by Father Walter of st. Patrick's Church in
this city created considerable interest The
paper. in measure was a reply to an attack in
the Century and related to the question OF
Mrs. Surratts completely in the murder OF
President Lincoln. Father Walter relates how
he became connected with the affair and
throughout declares his belief in the inno-
ceuce of Mrs. Surratt.
SAT the time of Lincoln's assassination" says
Father Walter, Il was pastor of st. Patrick s
Church in Washington, and among my parish
toner's was Mrs. Surratt. / was her cOnfessor.
attended to her spiritual wants until she went
to the scaffold. j can not, of course violate
my VOWS to the church and tell the secrets of
the confessional. but l will say that from what
know Mrs. Surratt was innocent Of any
coInplicity i'll that great crime.
Il tried my best to save her life, and If she
had been given reprieve tor ten days be-
heye would have succeeded in doing SO,
called twice on President johnson and was bv
him sent to Judge Holt. The Judge in turn
sent me back to the President and got no
satisfaction. Even on tho morning of the
woman's execution l attempted to obtain re-
prleve Tor her, but was unsuccessful, and she
died, believe, as innocent of that crime as a
babe unborn"
paper written by Cardinal Gibbons relat-
ing his experience of early missionary work in
North Carolina was also read.
