BODIES STILL IN DEBRIS.
Three Victims Of Minneapolis Accident
Not Vet Rescued.

Three Victims Of Minneapolis Accident
Not Vet Rescued.
Minneapolis, Dec. 22.-Three bodies
still lie in the ruins of the Crocker
hotel, crushed by the falling of the
south wall of the ruined Peck building
yesterday.
Since early this morning as large
force of tiremen as could be used has
worked for the recovery Of the bodies.
The nature Of the wreck made slow
work, and at late hour this afternoon
no more bodies had been found.
Several times the firemen were driv-
en- out by the danger from the standing
walls. The front wall Of the hotel
building cracked audibly and swayed
visibly. Chief Hanley ordered his men
from the place. The flremen then de-
voted their attention to pulling down
the walls that threatened.
The bodies are supposed to lie near
the south wall and about fifteen feet
from the front of the building. Here
some Of their clothing, carried down
with the crash, has been found. The
iron bedstead, which was in William
Emmermon's room on the third floor,
could be seen when the firemen were
driven out at 1880 a. m. by the threat
ening walls.

Certain Democratic papers In haine
are doing their utmost to bring about re-
submission Of the prohibitory amend
ment Of the constitution of Maine to the
people. 1t Is entirely obvious to all that
their object 10 this is to secure license
law 10 some form, in place OF the pro
hbitory liquor law now In force In the
State. No one denies this. There can
be no object in any man or woman VINO
believes in prohibition in Maine lending
his or her aid to bring about resuomis'
sion. Two-thirds of the people. OF
Maine believe in prohibition, and well
up to this number believe in adequate
and effective enforcement OF the law as
| IL now stands among the statutes. There
is no good reason why this large major
| ity should yield to the minority In Its
demand for resubmssion. Ii the fight
must come In defense OF the present law,
| it is better that 1t come in the Initiative
move OF it's enemies, than of an attempt
to get the Legislature of Maine to vote
for resubmission. Here ia Just where
the friends Of the law stand on vantage
ground, and we do not believe they will
weakly give up this advantage. Two
thirds OF the Senate ard two-tfirds OF
the House OF Representatives must vote
for submission of the amendment to the
people 10 order for 1t to succeed and we
do not believe they will do it. Certainly
they will not II the people of Maine ex-
press themselves In vigorous remon-
STRANGE against such action. To our
mind, the sensible course for every
one in favor of prohibition, is to stand
fast for 1t now and work against re-
submission. Any other course would be
suicidal.
