Collapse Of the illinois State Fair
Building.
THREE WoRkMEN Persisted
Tone of Brick and Mortar Caused Death
Or injury to q Score of Busy
Mechanics.

Springfield, ILL.,, Sept. "A horrible
accident occurred at the state fair
grounds this afternoon. The west tower
of machinery hall, which is now being
rooted, collapsed and fell in. burying
several men beneath it's ruins. Charles
Hobson and James Barker, both
plumbers of Lincoln, Neb., who were at
work on the ground floor, were killed.
They were covered with several tons Of
brick and mortar. James Park of this
city, plumber, was also killed. The
injured are: Fred Berd, a carpenter,
who was badly mashed; N. Wilson,
carpenter, both ankles broken; Samuel
Davenport Of Chicago, boss carpenter,
badly injured; John Gethardt, a car
pehter, a cash in the head, will prob
ably recover; Charles Brownell, water
carrier, both legs and both arms bro
ken, also badly burned, will die.
Neither the building nor the tower
was braced, but whether this caused
the accident or not is not known. 1t is
the general opinion that the hard rain
last night loosened the mortar, which
had not time to dry, work being rushed
on the building in order to have II
ready in time for the fair. and that this
caused the accident.

counsel, a salary OF 1000 a year, that
the receivers have paid themselves each
a salary Of $4,000 a year also without
authority Of court: that they paid spec

Master Carey Of Judge Jenkins court,
$4,000, and that they have dragged in
to the case in Judge Hanford's court
ex-senator Dolph and Senator Mitchell
of Oregon. each high priced man. and
that to pay them was entirely beyond
the receivers power. The total Of the
surcharges, Mr.. Petit says, will exceed
100000, which will necessarily have to
be paid by the bondsmen, should the re-
ceivers secure bondsmen, and for that
very reason they will not be able to
secure bondsmen. What brings this
feature of the case home to this court
is the fact that the order of Judge Han
ford requires from the receivers re-
port of all the expenditures from the
date Of the last report made to Master
Carey more than six months ago and
that all the money indicated above has
been paid out in that time. The facts
will come before the Seattle court. and
1T seems certain that the surcharges,
which according to the decisions made
by the United States circuit court, the
court of appeals and the supreme court
of the United States are illegal, will not
be allowed by Judge Hanford.
Mr.. Petit is confident that the receiv-
ers will not be able to furnish bonds
men here. Mr.. Petit finally points out
the fact that the receivers obtruded
themselves into the action before Judge
Ha6ord, a proceeding putting in issue
a controversy solely between Brayton
Ives as president Of the Northern Pa
cific, and the Farmers Loan & Trust
Company as trustee. For receivers &C
lively to take part in such proceedings
he declares to be absolutely unheard OF
and improper, as they are merely of1-
GERS of the court. He considers that
there is no doubt that the present re-
ceivers will be removed and says the
federal courts action will prevent the
contamination of the Hill-Adams plar
for consolidation Of the Northern Pa
eiflc and Great Northern.
