FALL
IN CLAY PIT.
Disaster at HaVerstraW N.
Y..--Twenty-three Persons
Buried.

HAVERSTRAW, n. Y, Jan. 1O.-A
tically to uncover the ruins of the
houses carried down i'll the landslide
here. There has been little success
owing to the great mass of clay to be
moved and to the fact that where the
houses had burned the debris was So
hot thai the work was very slow. 1t is
estimated that twenty-three or more
persons were dead as a result of the
falling away of the ground and the fire
that followed.
The names of those supposed to have
been killed follow: Joseph Albert, the
Rev. Mr.. Alden, Jewish rabbi, Mrs.
Bayler, Abraham Bias, John Bennett,
Mr.. and Mrs. William Cohen and their
five children, Thomas Hughes, Bartlett
McGoyern, Mr.. and Mrs. Mannion,
Harris Nelson, a clothing merchant,
and his son Benjamin and Mrs. Silver
man and child.
The accident, which brought sudden
or lingering death to more than a score
of persons who in their own homes had
no idea that they were in danger, was
of an extraordinary character. Women
and children. sleeping peacefully in
their beds, were pinioned and buried in
debris when their homes toppled over a
precipice a hundred feet high and crum-
bled and smashed in ruin. From the
heaped up wreckage flames began to
leap before there was time to realize
exactly what had happened, and smoke
and suffocating gases brought slow
death to those whose lives had not been
crushed out or whom the fire had not
reached.
The appalling character of the acct
dent was heightened by the failure of
the water supply, due to the bursting of
the big main that supplied the neigh
boring hydrants. When the tons of soft
clay slipped away from under the row
of houses on the bank the main was
left unsupported and the torrents of
water that might have been used in
fighting the flames ran to waste.
The firemen We're helpless in the face
of this disaster. The wrecked houses

impossible, and the firemen and specta-
tors could do little but look ON while the
helpless victims persisted.
The twelve wrecked houses were on
Rockland, near Division street. Near
by. at a level a hundred feet below. is a
brickyard. Workmen ex~cavating the
strata of clay In the direction of the
houses had undermined the ground on
which the houses stood, but no one sus-
pected danger. The catastrophe came
at midnight. The strata of clay and
earth crumbled and poured like sludge
into the brickyard, and the houses on
the edge of the cliff came tumbling
down in ruin.
There is nc likelihood of recovering a
single body from under the clay. The
rescue party might as well have work.
ed with picks and shovels on granite.
for the clay resisted all their efforts,
and the work has been abandoned.
Above the thousands of tons of fallen
clay there is only one house showing,
and. strange to say, it was the only
unoccupied IL of the twelve that went
down into the great assure.
