GRAND STAND GIVES
WAY, INJURING MANY

Chicago, June ia temporary
grand stand at SiXty-eighth street and
Stewart avenue, built for the purpose
of witnessing the annual field day
sports Of the ChiagO normal schools.
collapsed today, injuring twenty-five
persons, mostly women and children.
Several were hurt seriously, but it is
thought none win die. The more seri-
Ously injured are:
Mrs. B. Siegler, spine injured; may
prove fatal.
Mrs. J. o. Wallace, cut
Mrs. K Coleman, internal injuries.
Mrs. T. Fisher, spine injured.
Annie Criercy, aged 10 years, leg
broken.
The stand, which was 100 feet long
and seven tiers high, was crowded.
The programme Of the day was fairly
under way when, Oh account of the
general stamping of feet in recOgni-
ton Of some meritoriOus athletic fea-
ture, the supports gave way, precipi-
tating the spectators to the ground.
Several hundred persons were buried
under the ttmbers.
The field day exercises came to an
abrupt stop, and the participants
joined in the work of rescue. The
sufferers were removed to the Nor
NAL school near by, which was con-
verted into a temporary hospital, with
more than a score of physicians and
surgeons in attendance.

and st. Paul
What is believed to be the first step
toward a composite agreement be-
tween the great roads running west
of these cities was perfected at con
ference held here between Mr.. Harri-
man and the officials Of the companies
concerned. BY it's term an irOuciad
agreement to end rate wars and other
complications is expected to be spread
over al the roads in the northern

The other move directed by Mr.. Har-
riman was the practical provision for
TIE transfer OF the Chicago, Milwau-

cate and the turning OF this line into

This plan was arranged at a secret
confereUce held at the Auditorium an

guaranteed by the Union Pacific, the
Sonthern Psctfio and the Missouri Pa

be parties TO the transaction. Certain
large stockholders Of the St Paul, il
is said, have sold or agreed to sell
