THEATER COLLAPSES,
MANY ARE INJURED
Root of Washington Picture
House Caves in, Pinning
Scores Under Wreckage.

Neutrality-suspicious. hundred seven
persons were killed and scores injured
Saturday in tbs collapse under the
weight of two feet of snow on the
roof of the Knickerbocker theater, a
motion picture house, located in the
heart of washington's fashionable
northwest district.
Emergency hospitals were set up in
the neighborhood, some in The house of
high officials of the government, to
care for The injured.
Finding the ton of concrete and
steel of the roof vas almost immovable
and unpenetrable the street railway
companies and the Washington navy
yard was called upon to supply acety-
lene torches. With these rapid prog
ress was made and it was hoped that
within a few hours 1t might.be possible
to reach those buried beneath the deb
ris.
Among the injured was representa-
tive Smithwick of Florida, who was
painfully cut about the head and chest
hut not seriously hurt. Another of
those injured was Mobile Tomasso As
serto. third secretary of the Italian
embassy.
The management of the theater,
which was owned and operated by the
Harry NJ. Crandall company. declared
that the building only recently had
been inspected and approved and that
the collapse of h roof only could have
been caused by the tremendous weight
imposed by the heaviest snowfall that
has visited here since 1899. The roof
fell with such force as to drive three
concrete pillars through he orchestra
floor. Up near the stage, however. Its
force was arrested so that the platform
acted as a buffer. For this reason. 1t
was said, several of the musicians es-
capped.
AS a consequence every theater in
the city, including both motion picture
houses and play houses was ordered
closed. not to open until building in
spectors have certified that there is
no danger of their snow-iaden roofs
collapsing.
