WRECKED WITH DYNAMITE
THE FAMOUS FERRIs WHEEL A
TANGLED PILE OF JUNK.
Dynamlte and h Great
Structure CO1lapses.

st. Louis. May 12.-The big Ferris
wheel at the Worlds Fair grounds
was blown up by dynamite ut 4:30 p.
m. Friday. One hundred pounds Of
dynamite we're exploded under the
supports at the north side Of the
structure, wrecking the foundation
and permitting the wheel to drop to
the ground, a matter OF but a few feet.
As the wheel settled It slowly
turned, with the bottom OF the wheel
as q support. and then, after totter-
Ing a moment, slowly collapsed. 1t
did not fall to n side as the wreck
ers had planned-it merely crumpled
up slowly, and within a few minutes
was q tangled mass OF steel and iron
30 or 40 feet high.
The huge axle, Weighing "a tons,
dropped slowly with the rest OF the
wheel. crushing the smaller braces
and steel framework into fantastic
shapes and forms. When the mass
finally stopped settling 1t bore no
resemblance to the wheel SO familiar
to all st. Louisans.
Mrs. Cora Bennett, wife of w. G..

mite.

there for $4,000. and 100000 was
spent bringing 1t to this city and
