TWO MEN KILLED
In WIND STORM
Superstructure of a Pier Was
Blown Down
CARRYING WORKMEN WITHIT
Men Cried Piteously for Help While
Comrades Ran to Place of Safety
Two More Missing and
Six Injured.
CARRYING WORKMEN WITHIT

New York, September THE first gust of
wind that preceded the thunderstorm at
$3.50 o'clock this afternoon blew down the
heavy iron superstructure of new pier 80 at
the foot of west Twelfth street, killing two
men and injuring six others. There were
several men on this iron superstructure
of the pier at the time.
Killed.
SAMUEL PATTERSON.
JAMES WILKINSON.
Wounded:
Charles Boatwick, Jerry Brown, Oscar
Olander, Michael Evron, George Contalin
Walter Latham.
Missing-Dave Rusherford, Alex Even
sen, George Ramsey.
These men are carpenters and were at
work on the roof. They are supposed to
have been blown into the river and
drowned
The new pier Is 60 feet long, and is being
erected by the Wilson Steamship company
1t is said to be the largest and longest pier
in the city. When the storm loomed up
from the southwest tremendous blast of
wind rushed in under the iron superstruct-
ure and fairly lifting 1t from the pier, al
lowed it to drop again in a mass of twisted
and gnarled debris, burying the men
under it.
During the lull that itervened between
the first roar of the wind and the sharp
metallic creakings of the twisted and riven
iron, could be heard the pitful cries and
means OF the wounded. The uninjured men
made rush for the shore end of the pier
and huddled together, trembling with fear
In the large shed of the timekeeper, leav-
ing their fellow workmen crying piteousv
for help, lying under the mass of twisted
iron all of them too badly frightened to
assist in releasing the injured men. An
alarm of fire which was sent in soon
brought out two companies of firemen who
went TO work to rescue those under the
debris.
