A Score Of Workmen Injured, Eight Of
Them Seriously.

Buffalo, Sept. 26.-With a crash that
could be heard for blocks three
story brick building under course of
construction on West Ferry street
collapsed yesterday afternoon, carry
ing down with 1t 30 bricklayers and
carpenters who were at work in and on
top of the structure.
A score of the men were injured,
eight of them seriously. Six. of the
injured men were taken to hospitals
and two were removed to their homes
IN ambulances. They were:

by ]. ]. Crowley of 80 West Ferry
street. Morris & Allen had the con-
tract for the masonry and their men
were working on the third story when
the west wall went down carrying with
1t portion of the front of the build
ing and a section of the rear wall.
That there was not serious loss Of life
was due to the fact that there was no
roof on the building and that the mass
of bricks fell out toward the street,
the men being buried in the timbers
Of the interior.
Boss Carpenter Hamm, who was
working on top of the building, said
that the west wall seemed to sway in

Enlarged Telephone Company.

Cleveland, Sept. 26-According to
F. S. Dickson, president Of the Federal
Telephone company, the most exten-
sive anti-Bell telephone corporation in
the country, the United States 1nde-
pendent Telephone company, which
has just increased its capital stock
from 100000 to $5O,OO0,O00 in New
Jersey, will confne its operations al
most exclusively to the state of New
York. Mr.. Dickson added that while
the Ohio Independent companies would
not be directly interested in the en-
larged Eastern corporation, they would
doubtless be greatly benefited by OBJ
tanning long distance service with
many Eastern points hitherto not
reached. Mr.. Dickinson said that a
number of local Independent compan-
les In the state of New York would be
absorbed by the United States Inde-
pendent company, which would, he be-
lleved, also shortly gain an entrance
into New York city.
