ONE KILLED, ANOTHER INJURED, IN
ACCIDENT AT NEW STOCK EN-
CHANGE BUILDING.

One man killed and another probably
fatally injured by the caving in of a bank Of
sand in the basement of the new Stock Ex-
change Building at No. 10 Broad-st., yesterday.
The man killed Patrick Logue. thirty-four
years old, whose address has not yet been
learned. The injured man is Cornelius Dwyer
forty-seven years old. of No. 422 East Sixty
sixth-st Both were laborers and under the
direction Of the foreman. Perry T. O'Rourke.
who arrested and held in $1,000 bail by
Magistrate Brann on a charge of criminal negli-
gence. 81.
Only the walls of the first story of the build
ing have far been completed and the two
laborers belonged TO the night shift. which was
work clearing the earth away at the bottom
of the excavation Big caissons surrounded the
men on all sides, making it so dark that electric
lights had to be used. A hosting engine car
ried the earth and sand up to he first floor and
deposited 1t on the planks there, ready for
moval. The place where the sand was put was
directly over the spot where the men were
working, the floor being made of plankS that
looked thick and strong.
1t is understood that there were about dozen
men at work beneath when the accident oc-
Cured The sand had been accommodating all
night the weight gradually being increased on
the planks overhead. Suddenly there was a
swapping and then a terrific crash and the floor
gave way. precipitating several tons OF sand on
the men working below. Logue was completely
buried. Dwyer covered TO his neck by the
sand, and big stone fell on his left leg break
ing it.
AS soon as the other men realized what had
happened they began shovelling the sand away,
and soon had LOgue's body exposed. DIR. Old, of
the Hudson Street Hospital, examined LOgue
but the laborer had probably been suffocated
long before the sand had been removed. Dwyer
is internally injured and may die.
Perry T. O'Rourke is the brother of the con-
under whose supervision the building is being
constructed.
