are the results of an explosion which
startled the city today and totally

THIRTY MISSING.
Some 80 tenements and employees in
the building are still missing and there
can be no doubt that most of these are
lying dead under the debris.
The wrecked portion of the building,
which is owned by the Newbery es-
tate, was separated from the rest Of the
structure by a fire wall. The first floor
OF the section was occupied by John
Davis & Co., druggists, and by the
Journal mailing department The sec
ond, third and fourth floors were occu-
pied by the Davis Company, W. w.
Dunlap & Co., machinists, and Killers
book bindery. The editorial rooms Of
the Journal are on the third floor, but
situated beyond the fire wall and the
staff escaped injury.
The Journal stereotype room on the
fifth floor was directly in the path OF
the explosion and went down in the
wreck. A few had miraculous escapes
and came staggering from the ruins af-
ter the awful shock.
A. d. Lynch, the Journal stereotyper
who went down with the wreck from
the top floor, was pulled from the ruins
entirely conscious. When he fell he
was protected by the great iron table
and could plainly hear the rescuers at
work until they reached him.
Charles Hackett was found in the
ruins In the rear, to which approach
was had from the alley. Before he was
removed in the ambulance he reported
that there had been four or five girls on |
the floor with him.

FORGED FOR Stoo, 900.
Charge Under Which New York Man rs Held
For Examination.

NEW YORK, June 1.-THE principal
topic of conversation among Wall street
men is the discovery Of quantity OF
forged paper which had been distributed
among several prominent banks In the
neighborhood. Albert s. Moore, 36 years
old, and superintendent of Harlem
Sunday school, is under arrest, charged
with the forgery.
He was formerly employed as book
keeper by Inman, Swan 81 Co., one OF
the largest cotton brokerage firms in the
country. Last November he was dis
charged on account of some Irregularities
which were discovered in his books, but
the members OF the firm state that Moore
was not accused of dishonesty.
During his connection with the firm, he
was also the treasurer Of a concern known
as the East River Silk company, with
mills at Astoria, l.. l., and since last No
vember up to the present time he still re-
tanned that position. The forged paper is
nearly, if not all, connected with the silk
company, and bears the forged endorse
ments of Inman, Swan & Co., r. w.
Swan, .Jr., and John Menke, a commits
sion agent
Last Tuesday Moore presented a note
for sl2, 600 for discount at the National
Union bank. 1t bore the endorsement OF
A. $. Moore, Robert W. Inman and In
man, Swan 81 Co. The bank accepted the
note, and Cashier Jewett handed Moore a
check for the amount. Late that after

bank, on looking over the paper purchased
during the day had his suspicious aroused

unusual. He sent Immediately to the Of
flee of that firm to have endorsement veri-
fed, but as there were none Of the mem
bers of the firm there ut the time, the mat
ter was delayed until Wednesday morning.
Word was sent to X. w. Inman, Jr.,
and he called at the Union bank. After
carefully examining the paper, he said he
was not quite sure as to the identity OF his
own signature, but declared that the one
purporting to be that Of the firm was GER
tainly forgery. Inquiries were made at
several banks, and it was ascertained that
paper with similarly forged endorsements
had been foated. which in the aggregate
amounted to over 100000.

IHEPOLE Was Alive

Luckily Nothing Buta Dog Came in
Contact With the Element.

There was some fun and lots OF danger
on Dexter street last evening and II 1t were
not for the prompt action OF officer
Sweet there might be some deaths to
chronicle this morning or at least there
would have been several injured. Early
In the evening an electric light wire
broke from It's fastenings opposite the
works OF the Union Wadding Co. and fell
onto the guard wires Of the Pawtucket
Street Railway Co. The live. wire charged
the guard wire and the current was con-
veyed through the latter to the iron troll
ley pole. It was powerful enough to
about kill person touching the pole and
there were hundreds passing up and
down the street. Luckily some one saw
a dog strike the pole and before the
canine could howl he was thrown about
twenty feet. When he recovered he went
off up the street like a shot AMI his ski
yi's" could be heard for half a mile. Of
fcer Sweet was notified and tstood guard
at the pole after sending word to the
station. Sergt. Nickerson notified the
electric light people, but 1t was long
time before the wire was properly fastenss
ed again.
Sweet found some amusement watching
the surprise of stray CANNES when they
attempted to get familiar with the pole.
