Cracks May Be Suspended by the New Racing Board. Chicago. June 9.— Amateur cyclists] are on the gui vive for a sensation in the way of the suspension, of several crack riders by the new ratine board. That body has not yet had an oppor tunity of swinging its ax, although it lias had that instrument of decapitation well ground since March last. The board has been busy collecting evi dence, circumstantial and otherwise, and some big heads are expected to fall when the snickersee lights. A few well-known cyclists will be expelled from the league. W. W. Taxis, the Philadelphia racer, is one of the first men to be questioned by the racing board regarding his expenses. Taxis is charged with having his expenses paid by a Massachusetts bicycle manu facturer, nnd has been requested to make an affidavit explaining the source of his income to defray his training ex penses.

Novel Means of Escape From the Third Floor. Washington, June 9. — The hair's breadth escapes related by survivors were numberless. One of the most thrilling scenes of the whole affair was the sight of a dozen men who were lert In a corner of the third story, clamber ing down a hose pipe to the ground. One of these men, and the first to get down, was E. Baier, who worded in the center of the third floor. The story cau best be told in his own words: "I was at my desk," he said, "when 1 heard a great roar. There was no premonitory trembling, or any kind of warning; just a roar and crash, and the desk and tables seemed to raise up in the center of the floor and then disap pear in a blinding cloud of white dust. I sprang for the rear window aud called to my companions to follow. Those who were right near me did so, and we gained a safe place at the rear of the building near the windows. We were completely isolated, however.with no way to get down. The floor had sunk beneath us in front, and the build ing was still trembling from the shock. We did not know what minute the rear of the structure would go down, and stood there almost frantic. Then I thought of a reel of fire hose that 1 knew was near by. We groped through the blinding dust and quickly unwound it until the end touched the ground. Then I caught hold of the hose and slid down it,alighting safely on the ground.' NARHOW ESCAPES. Two Men Who Stood on the Brink of Eternity. Washington, June 9.— Five minutes later and J. M. Imbrie, the Pennsyl vania chief in charge of the second floor would have gone down with the wreck. He had a desk in the shattered area and also in the rear of the room. He had been at the former place and then came back to the other desk, and in about five minutes the crash was heard. Tnen a silence followed aud Mr. Imbrie said he heard no sound. He rushed toward the rear windows, and found men jumping out. Several men made the perilous leap, but he supposes that they fell on the awning over the lower door, thus breaking their fall. Another narrow escape is found in the experience of J. D. Nevins, of Texas, whose desk was located in the fallen section on the second floor. He had gone to the third floor on some er rand and returned, and had entered the door aud was about to go to his desk when the cra6h came, and he stepped back. One minute more and he would have gone down with the rest. S. S. Baker escaped with a bad scalp wound. He was at his desk on the third floor front. The crash came, he said, without a moment's warning. Half stunned and dazed, lie found himself in the cellar, pinned down with debris and covered with plaster, furniture and chairs. He extricated himself as best he could and crawled out one of the windows. It was fully half an hour be fdre he recovered himself, and even now can hardly account for his escape. His coat was torn to tatters. HEARD XHK CRASH. An Account of the Scene Detailed b y an Eye Witness. Washington, June 9. —S. Dana Lin coln, who occupies a room of the At lantic building, facing the rear of the theater building, gives this account of the scene. He was sitting at his desk at the time of the giving way of the floors, lie says he heard a noise as though of dumping of bricks in the alley. He looked out of his office win dow and aaw clouds of dust arising to the top of the binding. Immediately at every window dozens of heads pro truded, wildly calling for assistance. Lt seemed ten or fifteen minutes before the firemen appeared with ladders which were immediately run up to the windows. In reality the time was only a few moments. The firemen rescued all those who had not escaped by jump ing Iron: the windows. The last man taken out of the building alive was Capt. Dowd, of Indiana. He was found near the southwest corner of the building covered to a depth of two or three feet with brick and mortar. He had lain there for three hours, but a falling beam had lodged near him in such a position as to break the fall of the brick and tim bers, and when lifted up he raised his hand, snowing that he was conscious. When he was lifted into the Uarneld hospital ambulance the crowd saw that he was alive and cheered again aud again. TAKING OUT THE VICTIMS. Faces of Many Covered From the Gaze of Bystanders. Washington, June 9.— The ambu lances were kept busy carrying away the dead and injured. The faces of many of the victims were covered with pieces of cloth, an old coal, a iiews paDer or whatever could be had, but some of the mangled bodies were car ried out with their faces exposed to the gaze of the great throng that surround the building. All during the long hours while the workmen were working with all their strength to rescue sucli as were not past help, the mothers, sisters and daughters of those that had gone down hovered around the front of- the build- i ii tr, and with streaming eyes inquired of all whom* they met of some tidings of their dead ones, home could hardly be restrained trom pushing their way into the building. AN AWFUL. SCENE. i Many Crashed Out of All Sem i blance to Humanity. Washington, June — A look into i the interior told a sickening tale of how ! some were. taken and others left. Desks were seen half toppling over the brink : of the broken floor; ■others stood up right, but the chair which stood beside v and its occupant went down with the j crash. Records and papers. were scat ! tered everywhere, but as fast as pos ■ sible they were gathered up aud saved. i •Many.of them were spotted with blood. i That anyone should have escaped with | his life seems the work of a miracle. As I they were brought forth they presented ! a spectacle that no one seeing it will ivr forget. In many cases the sem j blance to humanity was gone. It j I seemed as though the helpers were car rying out mere bags of matter smeared , a.l over with blood, filthy with dirt, dirt | 'ground into them, blood on their faces. ; A wife could not have recognized her husband in that condition. With such derness as rough and excited men fould summon at such a time, they were laid out on stretchers and carried to tne ambulances that rilled the street from ! Kto F streets. All the doctors could Uu for them there was to clear away ' some of the dirt, the plaster and tilth , from the faces of the injured men. In ! -ninny cases the dirt was ground into the iiyes, noses and mouths so that without such attentisn men might have suffocat ed. Many were unconscious and could not have help2d themselves. With a ; clanc of the bell the ambulances start . t'«l oft for their hospitals. These were .scon overcrowded.. Drug stores were turned into temporary hospitals. Peo- ; -pie in the neighborhood of the accident : opened their doors right gladly, and the dead and the wounded were hurried, in. *r ' . DEVELOPED hiROES., ' ' rjured Men Rescue Many of the ; More Unfortunate. : i Washington, June 9.— When the as*; cident was over, and before the rescuers could get inside to their relief, there were injured men who were caring for their worse injured brothers. There were tnen who did not rush for the street to save their own lives. Regard less of the fact that more walls ftiight fall and bury them once more, they staved to succor men who could not get away by themselves. A man, whose arm was crushed, used the other arm to drag a man from that place of death. - Men stayed to struggle with beams and rafters that bore down upon their fel lows. They spoke words of cheer when their strugges were in vain. When the first of the relief corps entered the building, they were especially struck by the silence that prevailed. There were no cries to be heard from beueath the debris. If. any cries were made, they were stifled by j dirt and mortar that made almost a solid j floor on which one might walk. Men I did not walk upou it more than they could help, however, for no one knew but what he might be standing directly above the bodies of the dead, or above a man iv whom life still existed. Nerv | ously aud excitedly they tore away beams and rafters that made n tomb. it was a horrid task; it was a dirty task. Men worked like demons, with sweat pouriug down their faces. The dust and the dirt lay thick upon their faces, i so that one could scarce tell the color of ! the men. The trim uniforms of the firemen were ruined and battered, but never did they stop in their noble work. PLENTY OF HELP. Men Work With Energy in tho Work of Resone. Washington, Juue 9.— Every mo ment the throwing aside of wreckage exposed the blooay, aud often muti lated, form of some one of the victims. Occasionally one of them revived suffi- I cieutly to need but little assistance to the outer air, but the majority of them —dusty, bruised, with their clothiug torn almost in tatters— were carried into the clear atmosphere and through the sorrowing crowd to the ambulances and patrol wagons that were in waiting. At first the efforts to rescue were most inefficient, but in a little whilt system prevailed, and the work went ahead with the utmost rapidity. W eary res cuers gave place evwry few minutes to fresh and willing successors, who worked with terrific euergy in their endeavor to save some of the buried ones. As the bleeding and mangled bodies were brought out groan 3 and outcries arose ou all hands. The surrounding houses, drug stores and business places were tilled iv a short time by bleeding and groaning men. As a mangled body was brought out, in nine cases out of ten it would be surrounded by weeping friends. The persons who were evi dently dead were laid aside, while those who possessed life were brought out. One mau was found sticklug head first into tho debris. His feet were seen tirst. Soon they had uncovered his legs, which moved feebly, showing that he was still alive. As fast as human hands couid work those rescuers did, and soou they had the unfortunate man out. lie was alive when he was brought into the air, but he died beforeJie reached the am bulance iv the street. This was but one of the many shocking sceues attending the most horrible and inexcusable acci dent that ever occurred iv the city of Washington CLERKS PROTESTED Against the Work Which Caused the Catastrophe. Washington, June 9.— The general opinion is that the accident was caused by directly weakening the 1 already weak '\ structure by reason of excavations made beneath it for an electric lighting sys tem. It was stated this afternoon that ' several days ago the clerks in the build ing circulated la petition protesting; against this work being continued, as they considered ; that it imperiled the life' of every man who was' working in the building. -This afternoon the firme men turned a stream of " water "into: the building. This was done to lay the dust, so that the work of clearing away the ruius could be better accomplished. A dyed-ln-the-vvool government clerk objected to this procedure, because, he said, the place was stored with impor tant government papers, which would be ruined by water. A man who. was standing beside him shouted back ex citedly: ,<, .:■-; '"- "We don't care ad— for the papers of a government that lets its clerks work I in such a trap. , It's men we're trying" to save, not papers. . . j All-Wool Knee Pant Suits, $3.00.

The little building, in which was one ice chest and ; a dissecting table, was not near large enough to hold tho dead bodies brought from the wrecked build ing. When the morgue was tilled the stable was turned into a reception room for the bodies. Blankets were spread on the floor, and the remains were laid out as respectably as possible under the circumstances. Blood from the bodies formed a large pool on the floor, and the crushed skulls, broken arms and legs made the scene indescribable. Then there were some of the victims who had not been crushed . They had been smothered, and the discoloration of their faces and necks gave visible evidence of the cause of their death. INFORMED THE PRESIDENT. He at Once Interested Himself in Relief Measures. Washington-, June The i presi dent was informed of the sad. event just as he reached the entrance to the White house by one of the clerks, and he at ouce interested himself in relief measures, learning with satisfaction what had been done by Assistant Sec retary of War Grant.- D ;--.- i DEATH ROLL. . j Names of the Dead Taken From the Ruins. if/ I Washington, June The. follow ing list of dead thus reported, the names of the states from which. the j were appointed, contains twenty-two names, including one unknown, twenty one bodies having been taken from the rnins: --..'• - r \ \ \ UNKNOWN MAN. taken from the ruins at 5 o'clock this evening, evidently a clerk. \ GEORGK -Pennsylvania.- ;inc | GEORGE W.

VVashinotov, June I). —An examina tion of tlie oflicials snows that the inse curity of th« building was brought to the attention of congress in a pointed manner as far back as 1885. Attention was then directed simply to the safety of the army medical library and mu seum. The protection of human life was not especially brought in question. S. M. btockslaaer, of Indiana, who was chairman of the committed on public buildings and grounds in the Forty eighth congress, made a report in favor of the construction of a new building for the museum and library, in which he said of Ford's thuater, then used for that purpose: "The building now used by the medi cal department for a library and museum is not only too smali to contain the records of the library and museum, but is unsubstantial and disposed to di stinction by fire." When the bill was before the house for its consideration Feb. 10, ISSS, Mr. Stockslager said: •■There is a medical museum, the most complete in the world, the result of the greai war. which is now kept in the old Ford theater building, a build ing totally inadequate to its safe-keep intr. a mere tinder box, surroundt-d by wooden buildings, and liable to be de stroyed by fire at any time. I visited it a short time ago in company with tho surgeon general, and the building is in an absolutely dangerous condition. The building was originally put up under ar con tract in ninety days, and was very badly constructed". The east wail is more than twelve inches out of plumb. The southwest corner of the buildinn has given away until there is a great crack in the building, and th« officers in charge have been prohibiting from put ting heavy articles In the upper story for fear of pressing out the west wall. It is indeed in a tumble-down condi tion." Gen. Slocum, who also . visited the building, In the course of the same de bate said: '•My attention was* directed to the importance of this proposed building by visits to the building where the manu scripts and books and specimens are now kept; and 1 do not believe there is a gentleman on this tlnor who would hesitate to vote for this bill after going there and seeing for himself the value of the contents of that building and the danger to which they are now ex posed." * Congress acted upon thesL- statements to the extent of n^iovine the inanimate contents of tha^iuseum to a new and j safe building. tJut conjcreaj and the war department thought proper to ex- X' Schuneman fsTpiH si paul! an d Fvans.

Juno II). pose government clerks to risks from which they shielded skeletons and med ical books. From a responsible gentle man, who yesterday took a look at the work going on under the doomed build ing, this statement is obtained: "As I passed the 'building, Capt. M. R. Thorp, chief of the bureau of sup plies of the war department, seemed to be directing some work, and 1 stopped to see what it was. There was a brick wall running from the back of the building to the middle of the lower tbor. which it supported. A number of workmen were- excavating under this wall for the purpose, as I was told, of putting in au independent electric light plant, and they were preparing to support it by underpinning. It now seems very evident to me that as they undermined this brick wall, the first floor gave away; the second lloor, being supported by columns which rested on the first lloor. collapsed also, and the third floor collapsed in like manner." FIXING THE RESPONSIBILITY. A Thorough Investigation Will Be Made- at Om:e. Washington, June I).— As soon as Secretary Lamont returns to Washing ton steps will probably be taken to thoroughly investigate the cause of the disaster and to fix the responsibility, if the coroner's jury does not anticipate the department in that direction. The collapsa of this building has directed earnest attention to two other great public buildings believed to be in an al most equally unsafe condition -one the government printing oflice, where 1.800 people are employed; the other is the rickety shell known as the Winder building, also belonging to the war de partment, and occupied by hundreds of clerks of that department aud the sec ond auditor's otlice. This place is no toriously dangerous, and the Moors are Overloaded, all of the facts being known to congress for years, but receiviug no attention. Building Inspector Entwisle, who has two assistants. was on hand shortly after j the cave-in occurred. lie said that last i wek application was made to him for a j permit to underpin the building, but he I declined to gi»e it, as it was a govern ment building and came under the direct supervision of the federal officers. In fact, he had no jurisdiction over the government buildings and was prohib- j ited by law from interfering. The cause 1 of the whole affair, he said, was un- 1 doubtedlydueto the underpinning. The i workmen dug under the heavy upright | column which supported the building Bud the collapse followed. One of the workmen, a colored man. who was «mii ployed iv excavating the cellar and who j escaped with only slight cuts, says: •H told them yesterday that the arch- I way would fall," for every time any one I walked over the Moor it would bend." William N. Funk, of the firm of Funk «fc Funk, contractors and builders, was cue or the first on the scene, lie said he thought the wreck was caused by the j faulty manner in which the work of j underpinning seemed to have been con- j ducted. He said he had noticed it sev- | eral times during the last tew days, and | no later than this morning had looked 1 at it. It did not seem to him that the I work was being carried on in a safe j manner. Mr. Baer said the building had been notoriously unsafe for a long time, and stated that it had been three tunes condemned. He said the walls of the building had been bowed out for a longtime, "it is thought that when the debris Is cleared away all the papers of value will be recovered. ALL RECOVERED. No More Bodies Remain in the Debris of the Building. WABHIHOYOK, June I 1 .— The last body to be discovered was that of Dr. Nelson. lie was buried beneath timbers in the extreme front of the building and was I removed shortly after 5 o'clock, The j laborers did not cease their efforts until j about 7 o'clock. By this time they had j reached the bottom of the excavation in the basement, and further search 5 seemed useless, as tbedebrJi in all parts of the building hnd been entirely cleared away. Some held that two labor ers who were at work In tlio. basement at the time of the accident were still missing, but. as the search hail been so thorough, nothing to warrant its con tinuance could bo shown. But one body, that of Dr. Nelson, was found daring the last seven hours of the search, and those in charge of the work think it impossible that more remain in the ruins. The work was therefore stopped, the streets roped close to the building and a police guard stationed there for the nigbt. RELIEF FOR THE SUFFERERS Over $5,000 Subscribed at a Citizens' Meeting. Washington, June '.».— Various plans for the relief of the sufferers are on foot. At a meeting of citizens this afternoon $5,000 was subscribed. Presi dent Cleveland, who had been asked to preside over the meeting, but was un able to do so because of pressing official business engagement, sent his check for SIOU. and Secretary Thurber his for $25. The newspapers of the city are actively engaged in the good work, and the clerks in the departments are con tributing liberally. The meeting was called to order by Commissioner Hose, and Commissioner Parker was chosen to preside. With but little preliminary the purpose of the gathering was achieved in the ap pointment of five canvassers for sub scriptions in the meeting. While this was being done brief addresses were made by C. B. Warner, H»'v. William Thompson, a clerK employed in the collapsed building, and Bishop J. F. Hurst. Dr. Bnrtiett's ringing arraign ment of the government tor its moral responsibility for the calam ity met with th« * warm commenda tion or the gathering, lie said the chief olticers ought in BOOM way to g»*t together and provide means which shall secure to the suffering sorrowing ones that care and support which a nig gardly policy lias made necessary and not .id ii d .1 "silv. r dollar upon this long suffering humanity. Thompson.-* speech was largely devoted to abuse of Col. Ainsworth. chief of the record and pension division, whom he charged with being the direct, active cause of lite casualty, lie said large, fine, safe rooms in the war departments building were kept sacred for the storageo r Mate rolls and documents, while for the employes a building utterly unfit for clerical uses, was crowded with clerks, many of whose lives bad been sacrihceil by this one man's dictum. The theater had been a regular 'hell on earth." be said. No earthly prison or jail was to com pare with it in disagreeable features, while the Insecurity of the structure was notorious, having been condemned no less than three times. Mr. Thomp son stated that, although sixty-two years old, he bad principally been en abled to make a successful escape from the second-story of the building by means of a ladder. It was stated at the meeting that tho families of those who had been killed had all been left practically unprovided for in a financial way. A subscription was started this morning in the war de partment for the relief of the sufferers and this will bt» followed by like meas ures in the other departments.
