HARTFORD, Conn.,, Nov. 3.-With
a roar that aroused the entire town,
the north wall of the Greenberg-
LOveland warehouse collapsed here
early today, demolished the two-story
frame dwelling occupied by the fam.
lily Of John Huges, adjoining. killing
two persons and inturing four others.
The dead are Huges and his niece,
Eva Dooty, 10.
So great was the weight of the wall
which collapsed that the roof Of the
Huges house was crushed into the cell
lar. All members Of the family wero
sleeping on the second floor, but had
to be lifted out Of the debris in the
basement by the police and members
Of the fire department. Scores Of
citizens also aided In the rescue.
One OF the first to be rescued was
Mrs. Lucy Huges. She Is 80 years
old. Near her when she was lifted
out was the body Of her son. John.
Margaret Huges, q sister of the dead
man, was pinned beneath a giant
beam which had to be sawed In two
before she could be taken out.
Mrs. Lucy Dooty, Huges' sister. and
her daughter. Irene, were also badly
injured, and were taken to q hos
pital.
Early reports that the warehouse
had been dynamited were denied by
the police. The building has been used
mostly for the storage Of rags. Last
week the police declare, tobacco was
stored In the building. The structure
Is an old one and the additional
weight Is believed to have caused the
collapse.
