COLLAPSE OF A HOTEL.
Walls of Building at Fort Scott, kas.,
Fall with Fatal Result.

FORT SCOTT, Kas., June 26.-The Ire
mont Hotel in this city collapsed this
morning at $50 o'clock without warn
ing to the 100 occupants. At the
present time it is believed that five or
six persons are dead and buried in the
mass of debris.
The house was four stories high, built
Of brick, and the entire east wall fell,
followed by the three floors and all
their load of human life and furniture.
One girl, Ensie Colwell, of Kincade,
Kas., has Just been taken from the
debris badly hurt. The fremen and
others who woold search for those sup
posed to be buried are prevented by
the officers because Of the jeopardy
their lives would be placed in by the
standing walls.
Twenty occupants have been taken
means of ladders. Ida Morgan was
taken from the wreck seriously injured.
She fell from the fourth floor to the
ground and was buried under mass of
beams and brick. Almond Woodland,
son of the proprietor, was i'll the dining
room when the crash came and was
carried out through the door but was
not fatally injured. He says all the oc-
cupants of the house when it fell with
the exception of a few have been &C
counted for and it will be impossible for
more than four or five to have been
killed.
The building split in the middle. The
east side fell out from under the man
sard roof which still hangs in the air.
The west half is considered SO unsafe
that no one is allowed to approach it.
It is surrounned by hundreds of excit-
ed citizens some Of whom insist on
searching for victims but are prevented
by the police and fire departments.
Mechanics are at work snoring
up the unsafe walls in order that a
search for victims may be instituted.
A fourth story and mansard roof had
just been added and it is supposed the
additional weight was too heavy for the
side walls and foundation.

EXPRESS CAR ROBBED.
The Messenger Bound and the Strong Box
Rifled

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, June 23.-When the
Rock Island west-bound train which
left here at 7:45 last night reached Nir-
ginia, Neb., a man stepped up to the
door of the express car and asked
United States Express Messenger
Spear if man named Tompkins
was in the car. Spear said
that he was not and the
man asked to be allowed to step into
the car and write note to Tompkins.
Spear consented. When the train be-
gan to move out Spear looked to see
what had become of the stranger and
looked into the muzzle of revolver
in the strangers hand. Keeping
the revolver leveled with one
hand, the stranger with the 9th
er threw a rope around Spears neck
and then bound him hand and foot.
Searching the messenger he found the
key to the small safe which he opened
and from which he secured $3.50.
When the train slowed up at the Union
Pacific crossing the robber made his es-
cape. The robbery was not discovered
until Beatrice was reached, when Spear
was found bound just as the robber had
left him.
