In surveys and opinions of experts and
the unsightly walls as they stand are
not a menace to the public safety. Now
there is a movement on foot the OBJ

like the last hope, the last chance, and
a strong effort therefore is being made
to obtain an order from the health de-
partment to tear down what is left of
the block. All hope of rebuilding at
the hands of the owners Of the wreck,
Pendleton Brothers, of New York, has
long since been abandoned by the
villagers. Notwithstanding recurrent

His hand was cut and bleeding when
