.|O7 LIVES LOST
IN WASHINGTON
1874 OTHERS ARE INJURED WHEN
MOVIE THEATER ROOF
coLLAPSES.
SOME SERIOUSLY INJURED
Volunteers Work In Snow and Cold
for "a Hours Taking Dead From
Heap of Debris.

Washington.-Ofticial police records
placed the known dead in the Knicker'
booker theater disaster at LOT. Eliml-
nation of duplicated names brought
the final total down from the unofi'
cial peak at 112 at which the toll VI
the catastrophe was placed.
The list of injured stood at 134 with
Il listed as seriously injured"
The official list, according to the
authorities, contained the names OF
all those whose bodies had been re-
covered up to midnight from the ruins.
The volunteer workers, including
police, fremen, marines and cavalry
from Fort Myer, hal practically con-
cluded their search Of the wreckage
at midnight.
The exact number in the theatel
when the steel and concrete span OF
the roof buckled and fell under Its
three-foot load of snow probably will
never be known. The stories Of per-
haps hundred who got out uninjured
have been reported. These account
for a few more than 300 In the audi
ence that was roaring in laughter at a
filmed comedy when the roof fell on
them like a blanket carrying down
the front of the wide balcony In It's
crash.
Normally, the theater has had every
seat filled at that hour, and nearly
1000 persons was it's capacity. The
same unprecedented snowfall which
brought death to the yenturesome few,
kept the many at home. Street car
traffic had been abandoned and
streets and sidewalks were all but
impossible with drifts.
There has been no time as yet To-
official inquiry as to the cause OF the
disaster. The ruins themselves dis
close, however, that the entire mass
of steel-held concrete that formed the
roof had come down. The crash swept
the supports out from under the bal
cony, apparently, and this hinged
down at an angle Of As degrees, add

The building stands in an acute an
gled corner at the 18th street and Co.
lumbia Roads, northwest the heart
of the most favored residence section
of tine city. The narrow niche
Of the stage on which the screen
was hung was backed into the cor
ner angle while to the left from the
stage the line of the auditorium runs
in a straight line for some 200 feet
down 18th street.
This whole space stood roofiess to
the sky moment after the first hiss
ing sound of the breaking roof gave
warning above the music Of the or
chestra. There is only one survivor
thus far who has told Of having heard
that warning and seen the first pow
derry handful of snow sift down over
the head of the orchestra leader in
time to make his escape. From his
seat well forward on the main floor, ne
raced for the doors at the back. A
great blast of air, expelled as the roof
came down, hurled him out through
the doorway to safety.

GENOA MEETING POSTPONED
PRoLONGATIoN OF WASHING
TON CONFERENCE GIVEN AS
REASON BY ITALIANS.
Would Be Impossible to Assemble So
Large a Gathering as Contem-
plated for Genoa in Six Weeks

acknowledgements Of the
assembling of the Genoa conference,
set for March s, will be necessary, it
was said, in Italian official circles be-
cause of the prolongation of the
Washington armament meeting.
Even if all other factors were ia
vorable, it was said, it would be prac-
tically impossible to assemble so
large a gathering as that contem-
plated for Genoa in the six weeks re-
manning before the tentative date.
The difficulty has not been lessened,
Italian spokesmen said, by the delay
on the part of the United States to
formally announce their attitude to,
ward the projected gathering.
Members of the Italian delegation
do not hesitate to express the opinion
that the proposed conference could
be expected to accomplish almost
nothing without the participation of
the great credit nation of the world
Close connection between the Wash
ington conference and that in Genoa
was. seen by some delegates, who de-
clared there could be no effective
pruning and rearrangement Of Euro.
| can budgets, considered necessary
preliminary to any successful road
justment of European economic con-
ditions, until positive steps have been
taken toward reduction Of naval arm
aments at least. Unless such reduc-
ton is assured by the Washington
conference it was declared it would
be useless to hold conference in
Genoa for economic reconstruction.

DELEGATES PLAN
NEW CONFERENCE
UNITED STATES, JAPAN, ITALY,
GREAT BRITAIN AND FRANCE
TO BE REPRESENTED.
U. S. TO NAME TIME'PLACE
Preparations viii Begin Immediately
Upon Conclusion of the Washing
ton Negotiations.

Washington.-The ground work for
another international conference to re-
write the laws of war for the subma-
rine and other new agencies of at
tack on land and sea, was completed
by the arms delegation.
Under a resolution adopted by the
armament committee, preparations for
the new conference will begin imme-
diately upon conclusion of the Wash
ington negotiations. The United States,
Great Britain, Japan, France and Italy
will be represented, and the American
government will select the exact time
and place of meeting.
The first step toward revision OF
warefare regulations is to be taken
by a commission" presumably COM
posed of international law experts
without plenipotentiary powers, but
the resolution provides that after they
have agreed the five governments shall
confer as to the acceptance OF the
report and the course to be followed
to secure the consideration Of its rec
concentrations, by the other civilized
powers"
It is taken for granted that
questions of national policy as well
as legal considerations will enter
into the final decisions reached, and
that the whole problem Of the sub
marine, one of the storm centers OF
the Washington conference, will be
reopened when the powers face
each other once more about the
council table. 1t Is possible that
the tentative agreements reached
here both as to submarines and
poison gas will be passed along in
their present form to provide basis
for the renewed discussions.
The armament committee adopted
the resolution at a short meeting call
ed while most of the other activities
of the conference were waiting on de-
cision of the Shantung controversy
The far eastern committee likewise
met and readopted its recent declara-
ton on the Chinese radio situation at
the same time entering on the record
supplemental suggestions OF the pow
ers and of China on which no unanl-
nous agreement could be reached.

tended that they had invented the tele-
phone and Bell was nssailed as an i'm
poster and worse. But after grucling
fight in the courts Bell was sustained
by the United States Supreme Court.
But the attacks from rivals came
only after the inventor had won public
recognition of his great triumph. With
his patent obtained and heartcned by
the famous episode in the Exeter Place
boarding house, Bell decided to exhibit
his invention at the Philadelphia Gem
tcnnial.
The telephone was regarded super
ciIiously. 1t was looked on as n toy,
and few saw its commercial poSsibili-
ties. Bel, was showed into II corner at
the exposition until Dom Pedro, the
Emperor of Brazil, happened along.
Dom Pedro knew Bell rs II master of
acoustics and needed no persuasion TO
listen at receiver while the inventor
talked. The account goes that the
Emperor dropped the instrument, cx-
claiming: My God, 1t speaks" The
Braziliun's astonishmcnt gained new
interest for the invention, and Sir
William Thompson. later Lord Kelvin,
carried word OF it to England

The official, according to the anec-

was only a few years ahead of his time.
The first spoken message projected

The Atlantic and the Pacific Coasts,
the Canadian border and the Mexican
Gulf territory are now linked by elec'

The contrast between that initial
message and trans continental conver-

During the entire winter Of 1874

Watson, n brilliant young electrician
who followed out Ideas that poured from
the inventors brain.
