THREE ARE HURT
 0N NOLL BLOCK
Contractor Olson Pelman- ently Paralyzed if Not Fatally Injured While Noll and Fitzhugh Have Minor Injuries

The giving away of an eye bolt in the hoisting tower, erected in connec- tion with the construction of the new NoIl building on North First avenue early yesterday afternoon, precipitated boom supporting a distributing trough upon N.

 The three men who were injured were standing upon the third floor watching workmen pour the cement for that portion of the work. The cement was being raised by the hoist which was rigged with double cable When the eye bolt gave way, this caused the release of the cables, per hitting the heavy boom to drop.

FitZhugh was also struck upon the head but recover ed quickly.

Dr. Wyiic was absent and pr Rrockwav made an examination of the injured man assisted by Dr. Cron who called pr Brockman ordered Olson taken to the Sisters hospital where an examination disclosed that he was suf- fering from d fractured dislocation of the spine and was paralyzed from the waist down.
