BURIED UNDER TONS or ORE
Dock Cavod In at Buffalo, Killing Two
boys and Causing q Loss OF
Nearly 100000.

BUFFALO, Nov. 19.-The West
Shore ore dock, owned 10y the New York
Central railroad, lying on the southern
shore Of the Buffalo creek, caved in yes
terday morning, carrying with it 100000
tons of iron ore, under which were buried
Thomas Ford and Max Sors, lads aged
10 and 10 years respectively. Both
were killed. Several others were slight.
ly injured
Sors was but partially buried aud was
dug out after little effort, but be was
SO terribly mangled that he died short
while after being taken to the hospital
Ford was buried deep in the avalanche Of
ore and his body has not been r,coveInd
though parties dug for it all day. His
hat was found, which was presented to
his sister for Identification, at which she
became hysterical and had to be re-
moved. She at one time was an inmate
of tn insane asylum and 1t is expected
that the shock of her brothers death will
again unsettle her mind.
The loss to the dock and ore will reach
100000. This is partially covered by
insurance. 1t is said that the dock was
built on swampy marsh, reclaimed by the
dumping of refuse and artificial foundo.
tion and the constant weight of thous-
ands Of tons of ore on the original sell
finally worked as low as the swampy
marsh and then sunk in, causing an av.
alanche Of ore that totally swamped the
dock and filled with ore that portion Of
the creek upon which the dock had faced.
This is the second dock cavein to occur
in this city within two months.

Past Fiscal Year Most Prosperous Since
Civil War.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-The report
of Commissioner Of Navigat zion Cham
berlain, made public yesterday, says the
past fiscal year has been the most pros
porous period known to American ship.
ping for some years. Returns from the
current fiscal year promises an even
more satisfactory record.
For the first time since the civil war
the documented tonnage of the United
States exceeds 100000 gross tons. N
June 80, 1900, American document ton
mage comprised 23,333 vessels; of 5,164.
$50 gross tons, an increase of 100000
tons over the previous fiscal year. Our
maximum tonnage was 5,539,S13 IONS IN
1861. Our shipping, the report adds, in
1861, was larger than Great Brtain's,
and nearly equalled the British empires.
British shipping now amounts to 14,26l..
600 gross tons.
American vessels are almost wholly
confined to the coasting trade, which
employed last year 1888, 145 tons, or
more than the total tonnage of Germany
and France. Our tonnage in the foreign
trade was only S10I95 tons, and carried
last year only 0 per cent of the exports
and imports.

SMALLPOX IN PEKlN.
Sanitary Conditions There Are In
Frightful Stnte.

PEKIN. Nov. 49, via Shanghai, Nov.
10.-Sanitary conditions here are be-
coming serious. Since the foreign 0ccu
patton many Chinese have died Of small
pOX and other infectious diseases. Fear.
ing that their funerals would be inter.
fered with they have kept most of the
coflins containing their dead IN their
houses and court yards.
The question of removing garbage has
become one of grave Importance. AS
the natives are forbidden TO deposit rs-
fuse in the streets, there is now an
enormous accumulation in their dwellings
and yards which threatens n serious epr.
demic.
In view Of the large number of troops
in and near the capital, the consequences
of such an outbreak would be frghtfui.
Smallpox, which is always prevalent, is
much more malignant during the winter
season, and the danger here is now
alarmingly increased.
