Eleven Cars Passed Over the BODY cf
Harry Pond.
+ Harry Pond, we'll knownin this
city, and at Weston, was killed by
a train at Pasco, Tuesday morning.
The East 0regonian speaking Of the
horrible accident says:
lie has been employed BY the
Northern Pacific at Pasco as night
foreman. and the switching crew
was engaged in making up freight
trainsNo. 50 at 2 2o'clock this morn
ing. They went down to the freight
house with the merchandise car,
andupon arriving there they miss
ed Mr.. Pond. Supposing he had re-
turned to the office they paid no
further attention to him; complet-
ing their work in transferring
freight they went back to the Office.
Mr.. Pond was not there and had not
been seen by anyone Of the Office
men. Search was instituted and
one ofthe men soon came in and re-
portedthat he had found the body
lying across the track, completely
severed in two pieces. It was the
opinion of the men who were on the
ground that atleast II freight cars
had passed over Mr.. Ponds body.
No one knows how it happened, as
no one saw him fall beneath the
cars, consequently the exact cause
beyond that related above, will
never be known.

Three PeraOns Are Killed and Many More
Injured

New York, August s.-with scarcely n
sound to warn the seventy or eighty workmcn
Of their danger an eight story building In
course Of erection and nearing completion at
West Broadway and Third streets collapsed
an hour before noon today. killing three men
and iniuring a score or more OF others. A
list OF the injured follows;
Dead;
CHARLES L. HENDERSON, electrician.
CHARLES SMITH, electrician, died at st.
VincentH Hospital.
JOHN BURKE, laborer. married. Brook

There Is a difference OF opinion as TO how
the accident occurred. The prevailing idea
is that an immense iron Tenn ON one OF
the upper floors snapped, the floor gave way
and crashed down through the building.
There was great "N'' shaped Jagged hole
In all the floors and at the bottom Of the
wreck were piled up bags Of lime. which had
been stored in an upper floor. mingled with
bricks, timbcfH, beams ana toolsi anu from
the mass came the groans Of the wounded.
Tho nremen who came early to the scene
could hardly see to perform their work OF
rescue, because OF the clouds VI dust that
poured from the wreck
when Coroner Fitzpatrick arrived to look
after the dead he said, as practical build
err, II was his opinion that the disaster had
been caused by the sandy nature Of the
land on which the structure had been set
There were others who said that the build
| ing had been originally intended 10 be seven
stories high and the eighth story, when
added, had been too heavy for the iron
work. But the builder denied this without
being able to form any idea as TO the
cause OF the collapse
Henry w. Alexander manager OF the cleo
trio light company. whose men wers work

asserting that when John smith. the RE
man, was brought from the ruins, The sur
