densely packed and some 500 persons

badly injured.
1t is a miracle that none was killed.
Of the so or more injured, the death
of three is expected. The Rev. Chris

st. John the Evangelists church, sus-
tanned an injury to his spine, from
which he died on Monday afternoon.

CAPITOL TALE REFUTED.
Architect Huston Explains Substitu
tion of Composition For Hardwood.


Philadelphia, Oct 2O.-Another al.
legged misrepresentation regarding the
construction of the new state Capitol
was refuted by Joseph w. Huston,
architect of the new building.
Upon the subject of the substitution
of composition work for hardwood
carvings on some of the walls near
the ceiling of the Capitol Huston said:
While hard composition work in lieu
of carving in wood has been placed
in some of the brackets near the cell
ing this was done with the full con-
sent and authorization of the Capitol
building commission, in accordance
with certain notifications in the or
igilal specifications. The money
saved by the substitution of this COM
position material, which, by the way,
is harder than wood and less liable
to crack, was expended on the bronze
work. Every cent saved went into
the building.
The whole statement that cheap
paste was used and the tiling skimped
is malicious falsehood, wilful dis.
tortion of facts.

Has Been Most Liberal.

Berry's explanation that he went TO
Harrisburg to float his bonds because
he did not want people in Chester to
know his company was in the market
for real estate has had little effect in
lessening the sensational character of
the news that he is. doing business on
a large scale with the holders of state
deposits
1t is unfortunate for Berry that he
should have found it necessary, in case
he really had to go outside of Chester
to find some one to finance his project,
to have picked out the one bank in the
whole state to which he has been most
liberal in the distribution of the peo-
