Terrible Result of

A Sudden Fright Soizes Twelve

Blocked With Screaming
Humanity. Many Killed
and Injured. Heart
rending Scenes.

Tnliadeipnla, Aprli 3O.--An
unfortunate accident to deaf
and dumb boy, Isador Baccus was
today directly responsible for the
death or eight girls and young
women, the fatal injury of three
others and the serious injury of
more than two score girls employ
ed in the cigar factory of Har-
burger, Homan & Co., located at
Tenth and Washington avenue.
The injuries consist manly of
bruises about the body and fract-
ured limbs.
The building in which the dis
aster occurred is five story brick
structure and reaches an entire
block. Twelve hundred persons
were at work at the time, 90 per
cent. of whom were girls whose
ages ranged from II years up
ward. !
The trouble began on the fourth
floor of the structure. Baccus,
who was janiter of the building
started for the fifth floor for
ball of twine. The elevator was
at the top of the shaft and Baccus
pulled the rope to bring it dow
He opened the door leading to the
shaft and leaned forward to sec
whore the carriage was. AS he
did so the elevator, which was
descending slowly, struck him
across the back of the neck, pin
ioning his head between the ele-
vator and the floor. A stock boy
released Baccus and cried for
help. The foreman rushed from
the building to call an ambulance
and Immediately there was a pam
ic among the employees. Some of
the Younger girls tainted, while
others, not being able to control
their feelings, cried fire. Instant
ly there was a mad rush for the
stairway leading into Tenth street.
The girls rushed down the mar
row staircase until they reached q
bend in the exit, between the
second and third tieers. In their
eagerness to escape the frightened
leaders fell. Others Immediately
following tripped over the strug-
Cling mass of humanity and in
less than minute there were
hundreds Of children and young
women struggling in the passage
way. The shrieks and screams of
the terror stricken girls could be
heard for block or more. Dur
ing the excitement an alarm OF
fire was turned IN, but before the
engines could reach the scene
several of the occupants of the
building had rushed to the win
dows and jumped to the street, a
distance of over so feet. Helen
Tolini, one of those to jump, was
almost instantly killed.
When tho firemen and police~
mGn arrived every effort was
made to quiet the terrorized girls.
The tiremeD rushed up the STAIR
way and begged the girls to be
calm, telling them th 1t there was
absolutely no danger, but the

Killing of Copeland.

The Dallas News recently con-
tanned an account of the killing
of Joe Copeland, which occurred
in Paris, Tuesday night of last
week.
Copeland, whose real name is
Pleas Watson, was we'll known at
this place. The change in his
name was due to some trouble he
had in 1880, in which he killed a
soldier because the latter put a
live coal in his hand. He was
tried and acquitted of the charge
of murder in 1888, but the name
Copeland remained with him.
Mr.. Copeland was ~ years old
and leaves a wife and three child
rem. The parents of Mrs, Cope
land reside in Dallas at which the
deceased made his home and there
his body was consigned to its last
resting place. He was a brother
of Mrs, Dudley Tom, of this city
and has another sister, Mrs. G. c.
Yaw, residing in Sutton county.

SURVEYS ARE FAULTY.

to Them.

Austin, Tex, Sept. 3.-Capt.
Kinney, state surveyor, has just
returned from Dickens and Mot
ley counties, where he has been try
ing TO locate the several surveys
in those counties. He found that
a large number of people, many
Of whom are actual settlers, and

their land really exists, having
been placed there by incompet-
ent surveyors.

fight was the first great protest OF

and he significantly adds that it
was not free silver which fright

the fear of free men. This is u
clear statement Of the facts in

this view exists today as truly as
it existed in 1896 and 1900.
1t exists both in relation to the
absolute control of the country's
financial affairs by Wall street,
and in relation to the larger eX-
plots of the few money kings in

mines, steel mills and whatnot.
The struggle has been going on

money and the right of individu-

The Ohio Platform.

"In State convention assem-
bled, we, the Democrats of Ohio,
here make acknowledgement and
declare our continued allegiance
to the Democratic party and on
National issues re-affirm and in
dorse the principles laid down in
its last National platform adopted
at Kansas City, and which was
fully and ably represented in the
presidential campaign of 1900 by
William j. Bryan.
Regarding those principles as
opposed to Imperialism and CO.
lonialism, as opposed to govern
ment by injunction, as opposed to
trust and trust-fostering tariffs,
as opposed to financial monopoly
and as opposed to all other le-
galized monopolies and privileges.
we condemn every effort to re-
pudiate or ignore them"
The foregoing planks from the
Ohio Democratic platform are to
be interpreted by the following
remarks from Mr.. Tom l. John
son, who was the dominating
spirit of the convention, and is
credited with having dictated the
platform;
"The money question is also Ma
tional, And let me tell you this
is no dead issue, as some would
have us believe. Dead though it
may be in one form, it is alive
in other and more radical forms.
So long as Wall street interests
dictate our financial policies the
money question can not die. You
know | have never accepted the
doctrine commonly known as
"16 to l." ! have worked with
those who do accept it, because
have believed, as ! believe yet,
that the free silver fight was the
first great protest of the Ameri-
can people against monopoly
the first great struggle here of the
masses against the privileged
classes. 1t was not free silver
that frightened the plutocratic
leaders. What they feared was
free men,"
So interpreted, the platform be-
comes an endorsement of the
principles of the Kansas City
platform without specific commit
tai to the particular policy of
free silver, which circumstance
have retired, and in this respect
the Ohio expression is similar to
the Texas expression, and to 9TH
er recent approved Democratic
utterances.
1t is manifestly true that these
principles are opposed to i'm
perlalism, to government by in
junction. to trusts and to high
tariffs, to financial monopoly and
other monopolized privileges
which are the subjects of the
present campaign between the
Republican and Democratic par
ties.
