satisfactorily. The personnel, date

ONLY ONE PERSON KILLED.
Four-story Building at Memphis Falls
With Terrific Crash.

~'-~
With Terrific Crash.
Memphis. Tenn, Nov. with a
terrific crash the building occupied by
the Continental Savings bank at 10
Madison street collapsed at 10 a. M,
burying a number of persons in the
wreckage. So far as known only one
person, negro saloon porter, remains
under the debris. The other victims
were quickly rescued by the fire and
police departments. Joseph Fisher, a
tailor, who had shop in the building,
is the only person known to have sus-
tanned serious injuries. He was badly
bruised about the body, but will re-
cover.
That many people were not killed is
almost miraculous.
The dead body Of Winters Parker,
the colored porter, was taken from the
cellar of the wrecked building at S
o'clock. The Negroes head had been
badly crushed by falling bricks. This
is the only fatality reported and at 9
o'clock the police announced their be-
lief that no one else would be found
in the ruins.

Trinidad, Colo, Oct. 31.-The latest
estimate of the number of dead as q
result of the explosion in the Rocky
Mountain Fuel and Iron companys
mine at Teroio is forty-nine. No bodies
have been recovered.
Trinidad, Colo, Oct. 29.-At least
twenty-one miners, all but two OF
whom were Slavs or Mexicans, were
killed in terrific explosion in mine
No. of the Rocky Mountain Fuel and
Iron company at Teroio.
Following the explosion the mine
took fire and deadly fumes not only
made death certain for the men en-.
tombed in the mine but prevented
rescuers and fire fighters from accom-.
plishing anything. The flames are
still raging and many of the bodies
may be cremated, thus making it i'm.
possible to ascertain exactly the mum.
Der of victims.
The explosion, which is supposed to
have been caused by dust, was so ter.
rife that the country for nearly mile
about was shaken. Smoke, dust and
debris were forced out of the shafts
like a volcano for nearly minute.
One body has been recovered, that
of T. Duran, driver, who was just
entering the tunnel when the explosion
occurred. He was torn and burned
almost beyond recognition.
Say sixty-eight Are Missing.
The mine company's officials have
no record Of the number of men work
ing at the time of the accident, though
it is known that only twenty-one men
went down into the mine in the morn
ing. According to reports which have
not been verified many more men
went into the mine in the afternoon.
It is regarded as certain that none OF
those who were in the mine when the
explosion occurred are now alive.
Miners assert that sixty-eight men are
missing.
The mine is sloping tunnel, over
1000 feet long. Rescuers entered the
slope as far as room 10, which is 200
feet from the mouth of the tunnel.
They succeeded in reaching this point
only after most dangerous work and
after crawling through many narrow
places. At this point they encoun.
tered solid wall of rock that had
fallen from above and closed the pas
sage. Room 26, where most of the
miners are supposed to have been
working is 900 feet from the mouth OF
the tunnel, or 400 feet beyond the
point to which the rescuers penetrated.

BUFFALO ELEVATOR COLLAPSES.
One Man Badly Injured and Valuable
Property Destroyed.

Buffalo, n. Y, Oct. 31.-From some
cause which cannot be definitely ex.
planned, thes Ontario elevator col.
lapsed and sank into the waters
of the Evans slip. The elevator
contained about 100000 bushels of bar
ley, a large portion of which lies at
the bottom of the slip. The loss on
the grain and the building is estimat-
ed at $350,000. Charles Bartholomy
sixty-two years old, the elevator super
intendent, was seriously injured. 1t
was reported that an explosion pre-,
coded the collapse, but this could not
be confirmed. Superintendent Bar
tholomy was taken out of the wreck
unconscious.
