THE CROZER BUILDING COLLAPSE.

Touching Scenes After the FAN Of the
Chester Structure, whom One Man Was
KILLED and Another Badly Injured.
The Chester Evening News. in its
story about the collapse Of the Grocer
building at Second and Pennell streets.
Chester, on Monday evening, says:
William Murphy, Of Trainer, had
secured the contract TO tear down the
building and hired William Mofiit to help
him. The two men were at work tear.
ing 1t down. Instead of commencing at
the top of the building as is usual, they
began in the cellar and undermined the
walls, in order 30 complete the work
quickly. The south wall had been torn
down and the roof was supported only
by the north wall and a single brick
column
shortly after o o'clock the roof gave
way and pushed the only remaining wall
out, which fell to the street with crash
william M0fht and William Murphy
were at work In the cellar of the old
building at the time, aud upon hearing
an unusual noise attempted to save
themselves by running TO the street.
''lhey were partly successful. but had
hardly gotten out when the wall fell and
pinued Motlit and Murphy to the ground
Moiiit was struck on the head ard body
by the falling wall and was so badly
injured that he died almost instantly.
Murphy was also pinned to the ground,
but was protected by two ioists, which
ZEN across his body, and prevented the
falling bricks from hitting him in the
head. Both of his legs were broken
"Ofhcer Vail was on the scene Of the
accident shortly after &c occurred and
assisted In removing the debris from oil
the victims In very short time the
patrol arri ed on the scene and Murphy,
the injured man, was taken to his home
at Trainer station. Dr. Fred II Evans
accompanied him aud looked after his
injuries
'Motht, who had been pronounced dead
by the physician, was carried to
vacant lot alongside the destroyed build
ing and bag was placed over him. A
squad OF ten officers, under the instruc
lions OF Chief of Police Bagshaw, kept
the crowd back, and long and tedious
wait for the return of the patrol wagon
from Trainer station was inevitable Ia
the meantime Chief OF Police Bagshaw
went 70 Hudson's drug store, at Third
ana Lamokin streets. ana telephoned to
the Moyamensing Hook and Ladder
company, instructing them to come TO
The scene OF the accident and tear
down the remainder Of the building AS
u was likely to fall at any minute. and
the lives Of pedestrians were in danger.
The iiremen arrived soon after thev re-
ceived the message.
" When the patrol returned from
Trainer il was noticed by the crowd
that the son Of the dead man was in the
wagon. He had evidently been Informed
OF what had happened to his father. As
he was weeping when the patrol STONED
beside his dead parent Teais were In
many Of the spectators eyes, and excla
nations Of pity ana regret could be heard

The letter Of Senator John Sherman
called forth by the extraordinary re
suits Of the Sherman Silver Purchase
law Is an ingenious but humiliating
piece Of sophistry. Senator Sherman
does not make any untruthful state
ments but he negleots to make several
relevant and truthful statements which
would destroy the effect Of his apology.
He curtly dismisses the suggestion that
the danger Of free coinage might have
been averted thus "It is said there
was no danger Of free coinage, chat the
President would have vetoed It. We
had no right to throw the responsibility
upon him Beeides, his veto would
leave the Bland act in force We did
not believe that his veto would dispel
the craze that then existed for free
coinage Many people wanted the ex-
pertinent tried" Pray what is Presi-
dent ct for if not for the responsible
ties of his position2 Senator Sherman
is not living up to his record. In 1874
when Grant was President he pursued
the opposite course in regard to the in
ilation bill Of that day. The same sort
Of one-ideaed men, as the silverites are
now, passed a bill for sac, 600, 600 more
paper money. sherman opposed that
bill to the end and let It 60 to Grant 10
be vetoed That was the end Of paper
initiation. 1t was Harrlson's duty to veto
any silver bill and II he had been
either a Grant or Cleveland he would
have done so. He preferred a tempo
rary expedient;" he thought it best not
to let Harrison be put in hole" ;" he
had neither the nerve nor the discretion
like Grant to put the silverites 'in the
hole" He did not do right. He took
counsel with his fears Sherman not
only did not do right, but he did not do
as he has done in similar cases be-
fore. He cannot make either his con.
duct, that Of his President. or Of his
party appear right now.

OF course the wise men who get In
their philosophy after the event who
seem TO believe that fire should not
occur; that all accidents should be pro
vided against; that. even If accidents
should happen, everybody should be a
thousand miles away, so that the conse.
quences would not destroy life. But
ordinary men, and especially fremen
who are nearly always extraordi-
nary men, are frequently called
by duty into positions OF peril. They
must go; they have no time to stcp
to reason why. They must do-the
Lord save them-we trust they must
not die. A fireman can not loll in his
bunk and refuse to 60 to lire. At the

fireman. He should resign. 1t is a
hazardous calling Fires viii occur: no
philosopher can prevent them. There
is danger attending every fire. The
men are compelled TO be almost reckless

idly TO shrink from It. It is one of the
glories Of the Anglo. Saxon people that

Look there for heroisml" We never

lows standing at the top Of that fatal
wooden tower in Chicago, with every
hope Of escape gone, looking calmly at
the approach of the flames which either
scorched them to death or forced them TO
leap to almost as certain death seventy
five feet below. Not a cry escaped them.
They stood silently without the slightest
evidence Of excitement facing certain
death, almost, in either Of two ways. II
they stayed where they were theywould be
roasted-their moustaches and eyelashes
were already singed of II they jumped,
their bones would be broken on the roof
below. There they stood until every
hope Of rescue was remorselessly burned
away and the timbers beneath them
were tottering and falling. Then they
jumped. Sixteen Of them were picked
up burned or crushed, dead or dying
mangled or unconscious One escaped
with bruises only, because the bodies Of
three dead or dying companions made a
human cushion to break the effect Of the
fall. Are these not heroes9 What body
