with the Govsrnment
81. PAUL. March 2.-Since Jan. IL
Captain w. NJ. Walsh, Of the United
etates secret service, has been investi-
tatinga case of raising United States
treasury notes in the little town OF
Odessa, Mimi. Suspicion rested upon
one Of the comparatively few citizens OF
the village, and he has been arrested on
the charge of raising and counterfeiting
bills.
j.. C. Kidd, who was arrested by Dep
uty United States Marshal Jack Camp
bell. is the station at agent Odessa. He
wa taken to Fergus Falls, where he
viii be arraigned before the United
States commissioner at that place. Kidd
10 q middle aged man, and the charge
made against him has caused a stir in
the rural village. He has a family and
holds a responsible position with the
Chicago, Milwaukee and st, Paul
railway.
h Strange Part Of 1t.
Six of these raised 81 bills were passed
in the little village of Odessa.
Each ole claimed that Kidd had given
him the bill, and it is alleged that when
he was Informed of this he at once re-
deemed the worthless bills, saying he
had received them from some one else.
""And here m the most peculiar
part of the story" says Captain Walsh.
When Kidd had redeemed these bills,
he sent them to the United States
marshal. telling him Of the occurrence
and Offering to assist in running down
the persons who, he said, had imposed
upon him. The bills were turned over
to me and l opened correspondence with
Mr.. Kidd. l got him to send me all the
Hills that had been tempered with, to-
gether with a statement in which he
gives an explanation of how he came to
have them. He does not try to explain
however, why he attempted to pass the
bills after he claims to have received
them, and p:.s sing them is itself a crime
as serious as counterfeiting. The case
was thoroughly investigated and an ar
rest was made"
Captain Walsh has gone to Fergus
Falls to be present at the examination
Of Kidd.

WALLS COLLAPSED
Terrible Accident to Workmeh
Who Were Tearing Down
q Building.
TWENTY MEN IN THE RUINS
Many Of Whom Are Undoubt-
eddy Dead-The Mexican
Horror.

NEW YORK, March 2.-The wall OF
an old 6-story building at Forty-thi
street and Tenth avenue, fell at $50 q.
m, killing and injuring many men who
were engaged in tearing it down. There
are probably a score of men in the ruins,
many Of them believed to be dead.
The building which was being demol-
ished is the old malt house OF E. q e:
Schuyler, brewers. For two years 1t
has not been occupied. The portion OF
the building that fell is the old kiln
house and was six stories high.
Fell with . Crash.
For three weeks q gang Of men under
Contractor George O'Keefe has been
tearing down the building. Most OF the
gang were at work on the old kiln and on
the ,Forty-third street side. During the
morning a portion Of the roof had been
taken of and the naked wall on the
West Forty-third street side was left
standing. Suddenly there was terrific
crash. There was a a Of falling brick
and timber that was heard for blocks,
and a great cloud Of dust went up. In
the midst of the roar were heard the
cries Of the men, many Of whom had
fallen to death. The three upper stories
on the Forty-third street side had top
pied into the interior Of the building.
Tons of brick and mortar had fallen on
the workmen.
Rescuers Were In Danger.
In a few minutes fire engines aud am
balances were on the scene. Groans
and half-stiaed cries could be heard
from beneath the mass of bricks. The
laborers who had escaped, the firemen
and the crowd attracted by the noise OF
the falling walls ran to the ruins like
mad men, and began tearing the debris
away with their hands and with crow
bars. A leg here, an arm there,
and a head in another place,
showed the best points OF at
tack. The men who were at work
ON the ruins were thoughtless of dan
ger at first, and then cooler heads saw
that other parts of the wall might fall,
and not only kill rescuers, but bury un-
fortunate workmen still deeper. In a
short time 10 men were taken out. Out
of these, two were already dead. An
other, a man of 20 years, who was later
identified as Charles Robson, was uncon-
scious and breathing feebly. He was
hurried into an ambulance but died on
the way to the hospital.
Contractor Locked Up.
The walls ON two sides are still stand

to five.
