F|FTY-TWO men
ESCAPE DEATH
Four Story Business Block Col
IapSeS in Cincinnati and
TumbIeS Into Excavation.

Cincinnati. o., July 2.-Fifty-twO men
had a remarkable escape from death
in the collapsing of a four-story bust
ness block on Main street this after
noon, only ten being injured, and none
of them dangerously. The accident
was caused by the weakening of foun-
dations by the excavation being made
at Ninth and Main streets for the new
ten-story building of the Second Ma
tiOnaI bank, and the building that fell
was that occupied by the office furni-
ture firm of Levi & White. It's outer
wall fell over into the excavation,
where the IabOrers were enjoying their
midday meal. Forty laborers were
employed on the job, and most of them
we're seated around the excavation
when the wall fell. In the wrecked
building were a dozen other men, some
of whom were shot out through the
windows and wreckage into the street
That numbers were not killed out
right seemed little less than meracu-
Ious. However, the timbers in falling
formed arches, under which the men
were safely housed. Not until nearly
two hours after the accident was 1t
positively known that no one was
killed. Automobiles were offered for
service. and soon carried to the hos
pitfalls the ten men who were found to
require the attention of surgeons.
Property loss $4,000.

Washington, July 2.-''No, Japan would
not regard it as an unfriendly act if the
American government saw fit to increase
her naval representation in her territorial
waters upon the Pacific coast. or even If
she sent additional men of war to the
Asiatic station. She would not look upon

the Japanese ambassador TO the United
States, when his attention was called to-
day to published reports that the general
board of the navy had recommended to
the president that the battleships of the
American fleet be sent around to the Pa
cific coast. At the same time the ambas-
sadOr expressed a great deal of interest
in the stories printed and asked If they
were true. He disliked. he said, TO APP
pear in the public prints when there was
no reason for it. but he felt at perfect
liberty to say what he did upon the sub
ject.
