lieved TO be lying dead beneath the

All the injured at the hospitals are
reported improving, except Edward
Fisher, who is expected to die. A mass
meeting OF representative citizens was
held yesterday in the mayors Office
and over $1,000 was subscribed for the
relief of the families Of those who were
killed. The loss oa the property was
estimated today for the first time. 1t
Is believed that 100000 will entirely
cover it.
What caused the catastrophe Is still
unknown. and probably will not be
known until the coroner's inquest is
held. A prominent local architect
stated that he did not believe in the
theory that the steel work was faulty,
but said he did believe that it was not
heavy enough
