Terrible Death of a Government
Revenue Officer.
T. j. CLiNE's FATAL FALL.
Drops n Distance of sixty Feet, Dy-
ing Almost Instantly-SkuI Was
Fractured-No Eye-Witnesses to
Tragedy-Derby Hat Found Hang
tween the Cage and the shaft.

T. J. Cline. a United States government
guager met terrible death yesterday
afternoon In the elevator shaft of four
story building on Yesler way, near First
avenue.
Cline fell down the shaft to the base
ment. distance Of fully sixty feet dy-
ing almost instantly His skull was frac-
tured by the fall and though medical
aid was summoned Immediately. the man
expired before the arrival of a physician.
There were no witnesses TO the acci-
dent. and the exact manner In which
Cline met his death will probably never
be known
The accident occurred Mt $3.50
o'clock Cline had just left the
basement floor Of the building in the
elevator to ascend TO the third story.
where he had been engaged inspecting
spirits and affixing revenue stamps. From
an inspection of the elevator II appears
that the unfortunate man. believing that
he had stopped the elevator at the third
story landing, attempted to alight without
raising the wooden gate which stands at
an elevation of about three feet above
the floor Hanging to the palings of the
gate was a portion of Cline's derby hat,
Indicating that his head had come in vio
lent contact with the barrier.
The elevator seems to have continued
in its ascent to the fourth floor while
floor end lower end OF the gate protect
ing the shaft IL is surmised that the
mans body rested partially on the eleva-
tor until.it had assembled a distance of
probably three feet above the landing
when, deprived OF its support. the body
dashed headlong to the basement be-
Meath
The body struck on the left shoulder
and the head fracturing the latter and
badly managing the bones articulating
with the shoulder blade.
DIR. p. y. NJ. Miller was summoned as
soon as the noise of the falling body at
tracted the attention of the employees Of
the establishment. but life was extinct
before the physician arrived.
Little Is known OF Cline In this city
He arrived here from Portland Thanks
giving day, and registered at the Alaska
Commercial hotel. with the proprietor OF
which he was slightly acquainted He
stated that he had until recently been
employed by Internal Revenue Collector
Dunn. at Portland. and had been per.
manently assigned TO this district as a
government gauger.
Coroner Sparkling last night notified
brother OF the dead man, who resides in
Portland. OF the fatal accident and re-
ceived response stating that he would
arrive In this city today to take
