den. S. S. w. Robinson, M Sena, NJ

CONCRETE CANNOT
STAND STRAIN

The catastrophe at Long Beach. in
which the Bixby Hotel collapsed under
its own weight, killing about a dozen
persons, was the subject of an inves-
tigation by the California State con-
ference of Bricklayers' and Masons'
International Union. The building was
constructed of reinforced concrete and
from the findings of the committee
fell of its own weight. The report
states that the entire building was
constructed according to the best for
mula in use by first-class reinforced
concrete engineers. After a thorough
examination the committee was unit
in the belief that there existed certain
defects; that there Is no natural ad-
hesion or bond between concrete and
steel. thus disproving the claim of
concrete engineers that there Is a
natural adhesion or bond between con-
crete and steel" Another defect point
ed out was the column construction.
Careful estimates made of these col
umns shows that the dead or imposed
body did not exceed more than 500

JURY VIEWS SCENE
OF SHOOTING

The opening statements anu the first
testimony in the trial of Ernest Den
icke, charged with manslaughter for
killing an unknown Italian on April
20. were heard in Judge Carroll Cook s
court yesterday, and the greater part
of the afternoon was devoted to a visit
by the court and jury to the vicinity
of East, Lombard and Battery streets,
where the shooting occurred.
This visit to the scene OF the killing
was the outcome of a motion by AS
sistant District Attorney Hanley that
the members of the jury be- allowed to
go over the ground in order that they
might be better prepared to under
stand the testimony which 1T is ex-
pected will be introduced. Policeman
j. j. Dow. who had charge OF the case
for the Police Department. led the
party and pointed out the places which
will be referred to by the witnesses
and attorneys.
Ex- Governor Budd made the opening
statement in favor of the defendant.
outlining the defense as based on the
fact that Denicke was a former captain
in the cadet corps at the State Univer-
sity and that as such he held COM
mission from the Governor and was
