CALAMITY AVERTED.
Floor Of Taylor's Hotel Fell
Under Hundreds Of
People.

Jersey City a few days ago was hap
PLY spared what would surely have been
an appalling calamity. Only the presence
of mind Of a few people prevented the
collapse of the second floor of Taylor's
Hotel, while hundreds of people were
moving about at an action sale.
The sale was in progress when a crack
Ing sound was heard, and the startled
people actually felt the floor sink under
their feet A rush was made to the stair
way and very soon the floor was cleared.
On looking along the cornices of the CELL
ing in the ladies' parlor and waiting room
Uraeks were plainly seen and even in
places the plaster had fallen. Three of
the windows in the corridor leading to the
rear Of the building had actually been
displaced several inches and the archway
over the billiard room and entrance to the
dining room upstairs had cracked. A few
minutes longer and with the strain COM
petent judges said the floor would surely
have given away. carrying with it the
walls, and in all probability crushing to
death hundreds of people.
Many hearing of the state of the build
ing. and particularly the second floor, of
course were anxious to go upstairs and
inspect it, but their curiosity was not
gratified, the auctioneer having given
strict orders to keep out people without
any business in the building.

DIAz TO Be NATIONS GUEST
Mckinley Will Probably Go to
Chicago and Invite Him
to Washington.

WASHINGTON, Sept. % 1S99.-In con-
nection with President Diaz's visit to
Chicago 1t is expected that President Nc
Kinley will meet the Mexican President
at Chicago and invite him to come to
Washington, as his guest and the guest of
the nation. Tentative plans along these
lines have been considered, and more deh-
mite arrangements will be made when the
official announcement is received as to.
President Diaz's intentions. Up to to-
day, the Mexican ambassador had not
received the official notification of the
Presidents plans, but it is expected that
it will be at hand within the next day
or two. The ambassador is now on his
way here from Manchester-by -the-Sea,
and on the receipt of the notification he
will proceed in person to Chicago to de-:
liver it to the proper authorities there.
President Diaz's route northward is ex-
pected to be through San Antonio and
st. Louis. AT the latter point he may
make stop as the Latin-American Club
of that city have telegraphed to the Mex
lean Embassy here an urgent request that
the President honor st. Louis with
visit.
In recognition of the presence of a for
eign ruler within the country, it is prob
able that a representative of President
Mckinley will meet the Mexican President
at the United States border. and accom-
pany him throughout his stay in this
country. An army officer of high rank
is likely to be selected for this SER
vice.
No less than fourteen invitations from
that many cities have been extended to
President Diaz to be their guest during
his stay in the United States. But the un-
derstanding among officials is that he will
not be able to accept many of these.
