The firm was not IL member of the
New York stock exchange, but did a
considerable business among the small
err class of spectators
1t is said that there had been bad
feeling between the men for some time
and that Rye had threatened Canty's
life. While CAVITY was standing near
the corner Of Fourteenth and L streets,
In front OF the Ebbitt house, he was ap-
proached by Rye, Cantys friends say,
and made a threatening demonstra
with knife. Cunty drew Il revolver.
As he brought 1t out Rye backed away
from him, and when he fell pierced
by two Of the four bullets Canty had
fired he was about 20 feet distant from
Canty. The latter was arrested and
taken to the First precinct station.
George S. Rye came to this city from
Kentucky about two years ago and had
dealings with the brokerage firm with
which CAVITY WINS connected. When

lost money, and out of his attempt to
collect it i'll feeling arose.

Marrow Escape of Pipcmen.
Shortly before the rear wall tumbled
with loud roar the fremcn working
there saw the danger. They received
no orders to withdraw, but at timely
cry from the foremost they scurried
inside an Enclosure in the rcnr of the
DeMnth Shoe company's store. The ac-
ton was none too quick, for no sooner
had the last pipemnn disappeared with
in the opening than the huge wall
crashed down, and where the dozen
pipcmcn had stood one minute before
there was II huge pile OF burning de-
hris and heavy iron Orders which
would have crushed out their lives.
The fircmcn made their hardest fight
on the front of the building, and when
it was evident that the walls would fall

to withdraw to safe distance. For

flame, gracefully curved Mt the top and
then crushed into the street below. The
