A Crash That Was Sudden and Fearful
Fatal.


The fatal work was all done in mo-
ment Those who were alive and unhurt
after the first crash, except a few who
jumped in panic, alive and unhurt
now. The centers of the floors went into
the cellar in the twinkling of an eye with
a roar and rush, and those on the floors
We're caught. They had no warning.
Around the walls, which stood intact,
there were patches of flooring left and on
these patches We're groups of clerks. Some
of these jumped in their fright and a few
jumped to their death, others to broken
bones and still others alighted safely.
Upon one of those patches OF flooring
which did not fall We're f. Baier aud few
companions. They Were left be tween
heaven and earth, in immiI, mt danger that
their weight would carrl1,e floor to the
pile of debris below. Bu; Baier remem-
bered having seen coil of fire hose some
where near, and after a few minutes 1t was
found, uncoiled, one end fastened and the
other let out of window, and on this the
imperiled men slid to the ground and safe
ty. There were dozens of hair-breadth
escapes narrated by the survivors.
Every few minutes during the first two
hours after the accident dead and wounded
men were taken out of the debris. To the
on-lookers all the bruised, manned and
dust-cUvered bodies seemed bereft of life.
One man, whose face was covered with
blood and who was seemingly dead, sud
denly raised up in the ambulance in which
he was placed and swallowed glass of
whisky. This brought cheer fIom the
crowd and thereafter every rescue was
accompanied by applause. All the carts
and workmen that could be secured were
pressed into service to clear away the
debris.
There was much danger to the rescuing
of hx
hung threateningly downward over the
heads of the workers. 1t seemed that lit
tie progress could he made in clearing
away the immense mass of fallen rubbish,
but the work nevertheless progressed rap
idly. An incident of the day was the enum-
Der of clerGymen who, hearing of the dis
asteT, fiociled 10 the scene. Utterly re-
garlless OF their own safety they entered
the building, the rear walls of which were
yarningly bulging out, and administered
TO the dying and injured. Ministers of all
cretsiS Were present.

Lost His Life for a Dog.

NEWARK, n. J., June 10.-Thomas
Stanza, Danish laborer, lost his life at
Short Hills while trying to save the life of
valuable dog belonging to Louis Bayard
The animal had plunged into the reservoir
to escape the heat, bnt had ventured too
far out and Bayard, who was looking on,
feared that the dog was drowning. Stanza
volunteered to go to the animals aid, and
he swan out TO the rescue. When near
the dog he threw up his arms and disap-
peared. Twice afterward he rose, and then
went down for the last time. The dog sue
ceeded in swimming to the shore.

MANY APPALLING SCENES.

CHASTITY Incidents at the Morgue-A Be
reaved Woman's Grief.
As can be well understood there were
many appalling scenes. On the front seat
of one of the ambulanceS rode away one of
those who had gone down in the crash
His face, hands, heir and clothing were
completely covered with blood He did
not seem to be seriously hurt, but the
spectacle was revolving in the extreme.
All during the hong nonrs while the work
men were working with all their strength
to rescle such Were not past help, the
sisters and daughters of those that had
gone down lowered around the front of
the building and with streaming eyes in
quired of all whom they met of some It'd
fnSs OF their dear ones
The president was informed f the sad
event jlst as he reached the entrance TO
the White House by one of the clerks and
he at oIoe interested himself in relief
measures, learning with satisfaction what
had been done by Assistant Secretary of
War Grant, who came over to the White
House before noon Surgeon General
Sternberg went at once to the scene of the
disaster upon hearing the news, as did
Dr. Aifrsuorth. who is the chief of the rec
oris and pension division The rolls
showed that the full force employed in the
building numbered 5l4 persons. A num-
Der of these were absent ON leave because
of illness, 50 that probably not more than
900 or 40 persons were in the building
when the crash came.
At the mOrgue the sight was one hOfrf-
bic 10 behold. The little building, in
which was one ice chest and a dissecting
table, was not near large enough to hold
the bodies brought from the wrecked
building Along the floor they were ar
ranged in numerical order. The morgue
was flied and then the stable was turned
into a reception room for the bodies.
Blankets were spread ON the floor and the
bodies were Laid out as respectfully as pos
sible under the circumstances. Blood
from the bodies formed large pool ON
the floor, and the crushed skulls, broken
arms and legs made the scene indescriba-
Die.
The first woman to appear and make in
quiry was Mrs. F. w. Meader, of S21 First
street, n. E., and when she entered the lit
tie brick building the mutilated body Of
her husband Was the first to meet her eyes.
The scene that followed was a sad one, and
Mrs. Meader had to be assisted out of the
presence of the ghastly sight. Mr.. Meader
was 50 years old and came here year ago
from Buffalo, n. Y. His head was crushed
and body injured. The body of John Bus
sius was identified by his heart broken son,
and Later on there was sad meeting be-
tween the young man and his sister.

FIXING THE RESPONSIBILITY.

1t Was Somebody's BIunder, rs Usual
Organizing for Relief.
The question of the responsibility for the
accident is, of course, already earnestly
discussed Though officials connected with
the building are not inclined to so state,
and declare that they cannot understand
the reason for the fall, there seems but
little doubt that the proper precautions
had not been taken with the underpinning
placed beneath the columns which sup
ported the inner end Of the girlers holding
ND the flooring. This is alleged 10 have
been noticed by several persons, but
through somebody's blunder nothing was
done to make it safe. The war department
had the duty of inspection.
The collapse of this building has directed
earnest attention TO two other buildings
believed 10 be in an almost equally unsafe
condition-one the government printing
office, where 800 people are employed; the
other is the rickety shell known as the
Windsor building, also belonging to the war
departments and occupied by hundreds of
clerks of that department and of the
second auditors Office. This place is no.

A meeting of citizens was held to put
into operation measures for the relief of
the victims of the catastrophe. 1t was
called TO order by Commissioner Ross, and
Commissioner Parker was chosen to pre-
side. The speakers all denounced the gov
ernment for its niggardly policy, and held
it responsible for the loss of life. The to-
tai amount of subscriptions raised was
about Is, 500, of which Woodland e. Lath
rop, dry goods dealers, gave 81 600. The
president gave s1O0, and the further pros
ecution of relief work was left to the news
papers, all of which have started relief
funds. Those dependent on the services of
the dead are all practically penniless.

some cases the occupants of residences

The Season.
Numerous attempts have been made
to explain the vast proportions of the
Pennsylvania Railroad System, but the
best summary yet compiled is that made
up by Chief Engineer Brown, from the
annual report of President Roberts, from
which some extracts have already been
given in these columns. A leading point
of this epitome is that 1882 miles of
track is equal to four-track road from
New York TO San Francisco, with a re-
mainder of 736 miles for sidings. 1t is
further known that during last year
47,176 tons of rails were used, which is
equivalent to 40 tons per hour, or 129
tons per day, every night and day. in
cluding Sundays. There were 1,735,36
cross ties used, which means 4,755 per
day, or 1913 per hour, or $40 ties per
minute during the twentyfour hours
Two hundred and twenty locomotives
were built during the year which is
equivalent to over four each week, or
one every fifteen working hours. There
were 4054 cars built, or 1-3 cars every
work hour. The S44, 100000 passengers
carried one one mile is equivalent to
carrying 33,759 people around the earth
in one year-Or to moving the 5,34S, 900
people in Pennsylvania l60 miles-or the
1,046,9S4 people in Philadelphia to Chi
cago, OF to Atlantic City and retl IN
