DR.. CHADWICK. ON THE OCEAN
Engages Second Glass Staterooms fol
Himself and Daughter.

Engages Second Glass Staterooms for
Himself and Daughter.
Paris, Dec. 21.-It now develops
that ten minutes before the closing of
the Paris Offices of the Hamburg
American Steamship line DR.. Leroy S.
Chadwick engaged second class pas
sages for himself and his daughter,
Mary, on the Pretoria. The two are
therefore now on the ocean bound for
New York, as on leaving here they
had just time to catch the steamship
at Dover. They left here at $50
O'clock Sunday morning.
The fact that DR.. Chadwick, so long
accustomed to the best of accommo-
dations on shipboard, should take Sec
ond class passage is thought definitely
to answer the speculation as to his
pecuniary circumstances. He paid
only $57 each for the tickets to New
York, which included the railroad fare
to Dover.
DR.. Chadwick is said to have been
very nervous at the time he engaged
passage-to have been actually trem-
bling. He is known to the officials of
the steamship line as passenger Of
last year, supposed to live at Brussels,
who then engaged passage for himself
conditionally on his wife not joining
him here to remain on this side. Mrs.
Chadwick did not come and the doctor
allied alone.

Fire Breaks Out In Wreckaue. 4;
Z The falling walls broke loose gar
lets and overturned stoves and when
the fire department reached the scene
the wreckage was ablaZe In several
places. Quick work subdued the
flames and the work of rescuing the
imprisoned victims was begun. In the
course of an hour eight injured were
taken out and sent to hospitals.
The recovery of the dead was much
slower work, as the bodies were bur.
led under tons of debris. Search for
the dead and missing still continues.
The, walls of the Peck building
which was completely Quilted of all its
floors in the disastrous fire of Dec. 13,
were built of brick, two thicknesses.
Building Inspector Houghton looked
them over and while it is said that he
had intended to condemn them he had
given no specific directions. The NOR
tar was weakened by the heavy fire
which it had withstood.
The Croker House was situated
over three store rooms and occupied
the two stories above the ground floor.
1t was f1imsy old place; the parti-
tions cracked and caved in like so
much paper-they were only lath and
plaster; and the whole structure
seemed rotten to the core. When it
went it went with an appalling crash.
The occupants of the hotel were, as
q class, people in medium, even poorly,
circumstances. They were employed
mostly in the linseed oil mills, in
livery barns and in restaurants and
department stores.
Phil Carlin, business agent for the
Building Trades council, refused to
let the union bricklayers 60 to work
on the Peck building the day proceed
ing the disaster, as he considered the
walls in a dangerous condition. He
stated that the walls should be pulled
down with cables and when Building
Inspector Houghton refused to accede
to his request he refused to let the
men 20 to work.
