OF Coiun bias football season, which I shall

r1ancs attention. Both Harvard and Yale COM
plained that Columbia players were so need
lessy rough that Il amounted almost 10 brutal

condolences. II Is well known that after the
Harvard game more players OF both side. were
laid up for repairs than after any game Of the
season The charge seems 10 be justified Co
lunoia denies II, Of course, but there are too
10 the reputation OF New-York's great univer-
sity. Il should be stopped at once before II
arouses any further i'll feeling. and whoever IS
responsible for IL should be made 70 go.
Harvard played a clean game against the
Indians and seems 10 be rounding into shape
in good fashion The Indians. however. are not
as strong as usual this season. and Il would be
dangerous to infer on account OF the defeat in
nicted on them. that Harvard is likely 10 defeat
her strong rivals. This. think, she is not
likely 10 do.
AS for Pennsylvania. her case seems
be hopeless. do not see how she can possibly

BUILDING BLOWN UT.
Distressing Death Of a Number Of People
In Chicago.

Chicago (SpeciaD.-A boiler OF the
Doremus Laundry, occupying part OF
the old Waverly Theater Building, on
West Madison street between Throop
and Loomis streets, exploded destroy
ing the building In few moments the
mass Of debris caught fire, Eight
bodies have been recovered from the
ruins, several persons are still said to
be missing, while at least IS men and
girls were so seriously injured that
many OF them will die.
The most conservative estimate by
the police comedies that at least three
dead or alive-are still in the ruins; yet
the search for bodies in the ruins came
to sudden end early in the afternoon
and the work of rescue was entirely
abandoned.
The cause Of the cessation OF the
search was a dispute between the hre-
men and police as to who was respon-
sible for the recovery of any bodies
which might be concealed beneath the
debris. The police said it was not their
work to dig for bodies and Nobody else
volunteered to do the work.
The explosion took place at time
when many of the employees OF the laun-
dry had gone to work, a time regis
ter found in the ruins showing that 80
had already reported for duty, while
two or three others we're known to have
just entered the building. OF these
hardly one escaped injury Of some sort.
The working force Of the laundry is
usually much larger, but none OF the
ironing women were on duty.
The force of the explosion was so
terrific that buildings for blocks around
were shaken as if by an earthquake, and
hundreds OF windows were shattered.
The building in which the explosion
occurred was known as the Old Way-
erly Theater and was built in 1877.
Subsequently it was remodeled, and the
rear used by the Doremus Laundry.
The part of the auditorium running to-
wards Throop street was used by the
Volunteers Of America, while the
small stores built out from the wings
Of the auditorium, and facing on Madi-
son street, were rented to shopkeepers.
One OF the stores was used as the otlce
OF the Doremus Laundry, and through
this access was had to the laundry. Di-
rectly back Of the Office and in the
southwest corner of the building the
boiler-rCom was located
