MANY IN THE Ruins.
A SeVen-Story New York Building
Collapses, Crushing Another
in Its. Fall.
WALLS WEAK AND FLIMsY
Four Persons Taken Out Dead, Thir-
teen Badly Injured and Six
Are Missing.

NEW York, Oct. 1l.--At $500 a. m. a
7-story building in course Of construc-
tion at u Monroe street was blown
down by the gale. 1t crashed through
2-story building at 70, completely de-
molishing il. Two families with board
ers lived at 72. They were all buried in
the ruins. So far four have been taken
out dead, thirteen badly injured
and six others are missing. Only
one dead body has been identified. IL
Is that of Bertha Krons, aged 40.
Workmen are still digging in the ruins.
The building that fell was defective
and frequent complaints had been made
about it. Ever since the foundation
was laid there have been complaints
ON every side that the structure was q
weak, fiimsy affair, and many had ex-
pressed the belief that it would fall be-
fore the roof could be put on. These
were certainly not far wrong. for the
roof had not been completed 10 hours
when the Building Crushed I'm.
There seems to have been two eye
witnesses of the disaster, and the story
they tell agrees i'm every particular.
Thomas Walsh ID the watchman ut
Hecker's stables, in the rear Of the
house which fell. It was just $50 am.
when the disaster occurred. 1t was q
wild night. The rain fell in torrents
and the wind blew q gale. The watch
man says that there was O. sort of
mysterious half light In the air which
he cannot describe. BY Ii, through the
blackness Of the night. he saw, as he
was preparing to make his round Of the
stable, the side wall Of the big new
building, and the slanting sheets Of
rain % they beat down upon it.
It'll never forget that sight, says
Walsh Even as he looked, there came
q change I'm the appearances of the side
or the wall. It seemed to the watchman
that big black Line suddenly appeared
diagonally across it from the top to the
bottom. Before Walsh could realize
that the dark line was crack i'm the
wall, there was d low, rumbling sound.
and the seven stories OF the building
crumbled before his eyes.

the falling building, they found extend

man were making an effort to get to
