BUILDING COLLAPSED
TWELVE WORKMEN KILLED In
LONG beach, CAL, HOTEL.
The $4,000 Bixby Hotel In Ruins
$50 Men Were Scattered Through
the New structure-Was Built on
Beach Sands, Facing ocean-Res-
cuers Went to Work Immediately.

With no warning save the cries of
workmen who first felt the floors sag
beneath their feet, five stories of the
central wing of the new $750000 Blk
by hotel at Long Beach, Cal, col
lapsed, carrying IL men to death in
the tons of tangled wreckage. About
$50 artizans and laborers were scat
tered through the structure at the mo-
ment it fell, and nearly a hundred
were carried down.
Twelve bodies have been taken
from the mass of debris in the base
ment Three other bodies have been
located under the ruins, making Is the
total known dead. All of the men on
the contractors rolls are accounted
for save one, and nine injured are be-
ing cared for at the hospital. None Of
the injured will die.
The new hotel is built on the beach
sands facing the ocean. To this fact
Contractor A. F. Spaulding attributes
the disaster claiming that the foot
ings were insecure and weakened the
structure.
John A. Austin of the firm Of Austin
Brown, architects for the building,
ascribes the disaster to the premature
removal of the support of the concrete
work on the fifth floor, alleging that
the cement had been given but three
instead Of six weeks to set. Almost
without exception the men contend
that the building fell from the top,
carrying the lower floors with it.
Immediately after the collapse of
the structure hundreds of bystanders
lent willing aid in the work of rescue.
At the first call for help the women
OF Long Beach began preparing food
Tor the rescuers and established COM
mlssary tables near the building.

TRAVELLING BANK IN AUTO.
Sends Machine to Call at Business Ad.
dresses of DepositoFs.

dresses Of Depositors.
The Night and Day bank Of New
York has started an innovation which.
it is expected, will please business
men who make late deposits. To
make late collections and to avoid the
risk of sending deposits to the bank
by messengers, the bank officials have
had built a specially designed auto
mobile, containing huge safe, which
will call on all regular depositors.
Each depositor who desires to have
his money taken to the bank by the
collector, receives a metal dispatch
box, numbered and enclosed in a leath-
err case. In this he puts his currency
and checks, and when the machine
comes around he turns the box, lock-
ed, over to the messenger, who gives
him a receipt for the box. Contents
unknown"
On the stub of the duplicate receipts
which the messenger is to take back to
the bank Is a memorandum of the
box's contents. When the messenger
gets the box he drops it into an auto
mobile safe. AS the safe is built like
a letter box, the deposit boxes can not
be removed save by some one know
ing the combination of the safe. At
the bank the boxes are taken out and
the receipts checked off with the de-
post slip that has been locked in the
box.
