fifty mounted rural guards. At the pal

ONE DEAD, 100 INJURED.
Two Hundred People .Precipitated
Twenty Feet by Falling Sidewalk.

New York May 2S.-Elvin L.. Cool
| idge. circulation manager of the New
| \ ork Commercial, was almost Instant,
Killed and about 100 others injured las
evening by The breaking down of {
temporary sidewalk at Firth avenue ant
Eighteenth street. Some of those in.
part of the crowd gathered To watch
the parade OF militia in honor of The
visit of the French Rochambeau com
mission To this city.
Two hundred persons We're on the
sidewalk when it gave way. They Were
precipitated twenty feet into an eX-
cavation for new building and fell
on piles aof building material.
| The accident occurred just as the
head of the parade had passed the cor
ner The French visitors had gone
past and knew nothing of the acciden
until some time later. Troop c had
just ridden by and the Twenty-sec-
ond regiment was passing when the
crash came. The officers in comma nd
at once gave the order to break ranks
and fifty militiamen We're detailed to
the work of rescue. Hurry calls We're
sent for police reserves and amtu-
lances, and in a very short time those
who fell We're assisted out of the ,x-
cavation and the work OF binding up
wounds and conveying those most IN
jured to hospitals was in full swing.
The authorities are endeavoring to
discover who is to blame for the acct
dent. Coroner Scholes says the side
walk had not been built of material
strong enough to stand such a great
weight as burdened it last evening.
He said the real cause of the acci-
dent was the giving way of an up
right timber four by twelve in dimen-
sions, that extended from the bottom
of the excavation to the crossbeams on
which the sidewalk rested. About ten
feet of this timber, he said, was rotten
and very weak.
Considering the nature of the acct
dent and the number of persons in 1T,
the hospital surgeons express surprise
at the few who received serious hurts.
Many were able to go directly home
after having their injuries treated by
the ambulance surgeons. Those taken
to the hospital and who sustained the
worse injuries are:
e. l.. Coolidge. who was killed, re-
ceived fracture of the skull. He was
horn at Natick. Mass, and was edu-
Gated at the Westford Academy, West
ford, Mass. After leaving the academy
he entered the newspaper business in
Boston and served on the staff of the
Boston Journal. He was for time on
the Globe of that city and then came
to New York. He was connected with
several city papers during his stay in
this city. He leaves widow and four
children.
The contractor, sub-contractor and
foreman insist that they warned the
police to keep the crowd off the side
walk, as it was not built to stand so
great strain
