A DEATH-TRAP DISCOTBRBD JOSf w TlttS T9 SATI ™ OOCOPANIS. 1 Big Tecenant Hcas* in New York Starts to gc ud the Tenanis are Hashed Into th* 3tr*« by ih* 06«!»r~Th* Night Spent ircuad N>w York, October 20.—A catastro phe, which would have equalled ir not surpassed the late Park Place horror has been*averted by the timely alarm of a night watchman ami the prompt ac tion of the police. * A . An hour before midnight yesterday thirty Italian families, numbering, all told, 150 souls, were driven into the streets from the rookery in which they lived with scarcely a moment a warning or time to put on their 1 ^» rookery in question groaned and crack ed and would probably have buried them all alive had they remained in It another hour. M. J. Mills, a real est3te owner of this city, is erecting a large building at No. 51 Crosby street. Contractor Lar kin has the job of excavating for a cel lar. The excavation is twenty feet deep. On the southeast side of the ex cavation there stands a gr i my looking si x story tenement house. L is in the rear of No. 41* Crosby street and is reached from the street by a ion*, narrow, dark and dirty alleyway. . The tenement is more than half a cen tury old. It is a foul smelling place. The odor that emanates from it is over powering. I could not stand on tho ground floor two minutes without ex periencing a feeling of nausea. Louis fctaiu, of No. 31« East 121st street, is the landlord. Since the excavation on air. .\iius property has beeu in progress, a watch man has been employed to wain passers by that there is danger near. Frank Savarase, ail Italian, who has a beer saloon in tbe basement of No. 49 Crosby street, was the watchman last night. At half-past ten o clock Savarese heard the wails of the rookery crack. Then he hoard the sound of falling earth. . A part of the foundation of the tene ment house bad caved into the new ex cavation. The north wall of the rookery awayed. It was absolutely without sup port. Then came another cracking sound, louder than the first. There was a seam In the brick wall of the rookery. It extended from the top story to the ground. Savarase alarmed the tenants and then ran at full speed to the Mulberry street station house. Captain Moachlui was there. To him the watchman told his story. The Captain sent word to the foreman ol Engine Company No. CO. Within five minutes Fire Marshal Mitchell was at the scene. A hasty survev of the rockery foundation showed him that the under pinning was nothing but sand and that the ten ement was liabie to fall at any moment. Meanwhile all the teuantshad sprung from their beds and wore on the street, shivering and cryiug in scant attire. The night was raw amf cold. Children walled In distress, and would not be quieted, and mothers wept in their dis comfort. A wail of woe went up from hundreds of throats, for by this time Crosby street for several blocks was awake. Presently a scene of great disorder arose. A plateau of police from the Mulberry street station was posted In anti around the tenement with instruc tions to permit nobody to enter. Al though all the Italians realized the danger they had escaped, most of them wanted to enter the rookery for their clothes and money. They implored the police to let them pass the lines. Then they began to threaten them. But the bluecoats would not be moved by entreaties or tears or threats. Sud denly a rush was made for the building, i Tbe policemen swung their clubs, and they swung them with such effect that order was soon restored and no further attempt was made by thedlstracted ten ants to pass the lines. Many of the homoless ones became the guest* of neighbors for the night. But there were many of them who were not so fortunate. For the benefit of these a bonfire was lighted iu the middle of the street, aud its warm, genial blaze af forded seme comfort to the distressed. The Lion huddled about this tire all night. By 3 o’clock this morning most of the women and children had found shelter iu the houses of friends. A num ber of them, however, slept in doorways with their little ones. Tho bonfire was still burning hotly when l visited the scene this morning. A large crowd of Italians had congre gated there. The police still maintained a Hue in frontof the tottering tenement. A number of women with their children were dozing iu neighboring doorways. Others were huddled in con venient corners, where the wind did not have a full sweep. It was a pitiful eight. The work of propping up the walls of the death trap was begun at daybreak. Contractor Larkin aud a number of building inspectors wore on tho scene. They had very little to say. Immense beams were placed against the walls of the rockery to preveut Immediate col lapse. The walls of the three story building In front of the tenomeut were also fouuu to bo cracked. Six families live there. They were ordered to quit. Further investigation proved that the neighboring tenement at No. 53 Crusby street was unsafe. Its walls are already stayed by heavy timbers. Like that of No. 40 its foundation is also of saud aud liable to give way at any moment. SUE WAS A TKULK GAY. W ild ('apart of a Yount; Girl From Mur tr<i««t>uru, Xeuu., ut NuthviUe. Nashville, Term., October 20.—One of the mu>t terrible sensations which I had ever come to light in the society of I Tennessee developed here yesterday. The daughter of a prominent Tennessee J politician at Murfreesboro, and who is 1 ideutitied with many of Toauessee’s in- 1 terests, has ruined her reputation. She < 1$ a trifle gay, aud came to this city last j Friday night and stopped at the Nieh- I olsou House, where, by forward and im proper actions, she became acquainted I with a fast set of young men, who j boarded there. She we«t from bad to worse, until her relations with several young men began ■ to be illicit. She was warned by the hotel proprietor, who telegraphed her brother to come and save her from an assignation hell. The brother came, but the girl refused to see him, and after a night of wild horror, in which green lights flashed, the girl was car ried home by her brother. She was walked all over the city by a young man of the fast set, and carried to a pri vate room, where she made desperate efforts to commit suicide. The father is one ol the wealthiest men in Ten nessee. Bad Drainage causes much sickness and bad blood and improper action of!

Ani>ek*on, 1ki>., October 20,—An Alexandria physician was called to the country to attend a young lady named Smith, who was supposed to be afflicted with pleurisy. I’pon examination it was found that one of her ribs wan* badly fractured. (Juostiouing tho victim ! closely, she finally acmlttod that tho In ! jury was the result of, and dated from a visit of her suitor, who, as a parting tokeu embra<«Hl her not to say gently. She says that she experienced a sharp, quick pain at the time in the region of the spinal column, but thought little about it, however. It was but a short time until she was forcibly reminded of the injury, and hassuffored from it con stantly since. SET HI* BROTH HR ON FIRK. A Four-Year-Old Child Bay* ho *‘f*ut a Lighted Chipon hie Feet.” Cauusi.b, P.y., October 19.—A very sad trag&dy occurred last night Ih the home of John Good, a farmer, who resides four miles from thlsclty. The children were playlDg upon the floor of one of the rooms of the lower story of the house and their mother, Mrs. Good, went up stairs, where she remained some time. Upon re turning she was horrified to find the clothing of her two-vear-old son ablaze. The llames were soon ex tinguished, but the child died in agony a few minutes later. The four-year-old brother of the child told his mother that he lit a chip and put it on his brother’s feet, and it was from this that the clothing ignited. A GIHL HV»tKKlOl'SLY HURT. Found Almost Uyiug Near the Campos of Cornell University. Ithca, X. Y., October 19.—A young woman named Lottie Brock, a waitress iu a students’ boarding club, was found early this morning below the bridge at the entrance of the campus of Cornell University in a terrible condition. She was badly brusud, her arm was shattered and she had sustained spinal injuries. She is not expected to live. There is consid erable mystery over the ulfalr and doubts are entertained as to whether she threw herself from the bridge, or fell, or was pushed from the path at the side of the gorge. She is conscious, but refuses to tell bow she was hurt. Anarchists Leave the Party. Earner, October 19.—At this day’s ses sion of the Socialist Congress, Herr Akerbach made a violent speech iu defence of Anarchism. This speech full of the most bitter denunciations of the existing systems of government and society, caused such an uproar and so much protest upon the part of the more sober-miuded of the delegates, that the congress was upon the poiut of electing a committee to consider the expulsion of members who supported the Anarchistic views of the speaker, when Herr Auerbach, who had taken his seat during the tumult, again arose, and, amid a scene of uproar and disorder announced the sec< ssiou from the Socialistic party of himself and of lierren Weruoek, VViiber- I ger, Sehuiz, of Magdeburg, ami Brethge. of Berlin. All five of the delegates who J thus severed their connection with the party then withdrew from the hall. Hint Socialistic Congres*. Ekfi'kt, October 19.—Herr Singer read a letter from the seceding extremists in which the sc cedars declared that they would no longer belong to a party which called itself the Socialist party while it re nounced democratic principles.

Judge McConnell yesterday suspend ed judgment on Adkins’ promise to leave town. A ticket to New Orleans and ?jr» were given him, and ho will leave Monday. The Clam and the Wizard. A Clam who had become very much disgusted with his station in life paid a visit to a well-known Wizard, who dwelt near the seashore, and said: “O, Wizard, 1 am come to ask a great favor of you. As a Clam I am au ob ject of ridicule, and the funny man is always er&ckin? jokos on me. I want to be transposed into a bird.” The Wizard, who had disposed of his Santa Fe stock before the slump, and therefore felt in good humor, waved his baud and the Ciam flew away. He re turned iu about an hour, however, to loudly complain: “O, Wizard, as a Clam I had to put up with only ridicule, but as a buzzard 1 am tho object of everybody’s con tempt.” “Well, then,” replied the Wizard, “being as you are neither satisfied to be a Clam nor a bird, I’ll make a snail of you,” and ho forthwith gave him a shell and curled him up in a sandhill.

An idea as old as the htlls is gaining recognition now, after having failed persistently in the past—the “coat skirt ” This is a garment which in most respects does not differ from the ordinary dress shirt. It has no claim to novelty in appearance when it is worn. The advantage is in the putting on. The garmeut does not go over the head, but is adjusted in the same way as an ordinary coat. It is closed behind, and entirely open in front. It is being put upon the market this year, and its future looks brighter than ever before. In swelldom it is not unknown already, but it has never gained wide popularity. The Sli er Kacket White—What did Jobiets say when Jessie said she would be a sister to him? Greene—He said that was satisfacto ry him provided they were to share alike under the old man's will. • * 1 , JUDGE LOWEST DISGUSTED, ‘Jj ___ ____ * • ? i*- ■ The Ohio Clerks Will Not Subscribe-* P-*. erally lo DU Fuutl. ’ ‘ 1 Washiitoton, October 20— Lowery, of Ohio, calculated that the 700 Ohio persons In office in Washing ton, with aggregated salaries of *50<V 000 would give at least 825,000 to help McKinley and protection. They have, it is understood, “paid up” only 31,000. The result of his appeal Is said to be “disgusting,” only fifty clerks having subscribed. “About 33 per cent.,” be says, ‘ of the Ohio clerks now here will go back to their State to vote. The number is not nearly so large as last year. One reason for this Js the fact that the rail road rates offered are not nearly as rea sonable. This year the best we can do is to get cents per mile. The sub scriptions are very small indeed. I do not believe that the clerks from any other State in the Union are as niggard ly as those from Ohio. Why, they won t give anything.” “I suppose It is.” the Judge answer ed, when asked if this indifference could be attributed to confidence in their ability to hold their places, “but I think some of them will learn they are mis taken. Probably 25 per cent, of those in office are Democrats'. They are active and some of them have already made applications for leave. Everything I have written has been published here by some kicker, who runs immediately to the press. There seems to be an en tire lack of party spirit among them.” Amoug the Pennsylvania employes in the departments there seems to be the same apathy about contributions and going home to vote as among the Ohio clerks. The New York employes in the departments are Quito as backward In their contributions as are the Ohioans HAD SO PASSPORTS And Were Suinmarlnllj Executed by the Mexican Authorities — A Peculiar Ac tion. Rio Grand City, Tex., October 20.— The Mexican Consul here, Mr. Josef Gonzales, requires all citizens to get a pass for tho other side, aud grunts them only to thoso he deems truly loyal.

Two had just crossed from Texas, having been at work in the vicinity of Victoria, The other, Juan Kazan, was from Mier, an army moat contractor, it is said. The first two, unconscious of the necessity for them, crossed without Consuls, permits, and were at onco ar rested at their homes by a cavalry pieket Gen. Lorenzo Garcia, on his way from Camargo to Mier, with an escort, the night they were shot, when notified of their arrest, ordered their summary exe cution, which took place in tho pres ence of their pleading lamilies. The shots that ushered them into‘eternity and the cries of the wives and chil dren for mercy were plainly heard on tho Texas side. A number of families at that point, terror stricken, fled to this side, where they are campiug in the open air. • •KFY CIOAOTi Made hy Chinese In San Francisco, Shipped Fast and Returned With a Florida Firm's x ante.
