NEW YORK, Dec 1. Broadway, ai
Fifty-second street, was suddenly
transformed late today from a scene
of bustling activity to one of deso
late wreckage when a nine-story
apartment house under repair col
lapsed, burying several persons be
i.eath the debris. At least one per
son Is believed to have been killed
and six others are unaccounted for.
Broadway was crowded with shop
pers and afternoon theater-goers
when, a terrific crash rent the air as
the building toppled Into the street.
The bulk of the debris fell into Fifty
fcecond street,, which was compara
tively free from traffic, although
tons of wreckage slid into Broadway
ncif.
Six Persons Are Injured.
Six persons, three of them buried
in the wreckage and later rescued,
were injured. Searchers expressed fear
tonight that other pedestrians may
have been caught beneath the wreck
age, covering the -sidewalk in places
to a depth of six feet.
Only the ground floor was occu
pied, an automobile concern having
its office there. The injured persons
were mainly employes of this con
cern and workmen employed in re
pairing the building.
l'olice tonight held back crowds in
Broadway while workmen under pow
erful lights risked their lives in an
effort to relieve the weight on th
upper floors and prevent the sagging
wall on the Broadway side of the
structure from giving way.
The man believed to have been
killed was Jeff Smith, foreman em
ployed by the wrecking company.
All Employes Located.
All of the employes of the auto
mobile concern were accounted for
later and firemen then were kept out
of the building owing to the danger
of falling wails. Three suits of street
clothes found in the building re
mained unclaimed and officials be
lieve the owners were buried in the
wreckage.
Late tonight another section of the
Fifty-second street wall fell with a
crash heard for blocks. As the thea
ters closed, crowds rushed to the
scene and police reserves were called
to keep the people out of danger.
Officials of the district attorney's
office began an investigation to de
termine the cause of the accident.
Sidney B. Bowman, head of the
automobile company, said tonight he
made a complaint against the un
safeness of the construction work in
September and that a temporary in,
junction was obtained later, but in
validated in the supreme court. An
appeal from this decision, Mr. Bow
man said, now is pending in the ap
pellate division of the supreme ourt.

At the Theaters.
Heili?.
BT JOSEPH MACQUEEX.
NEW lyrio tenors are rare and
especially young Americans who
have made international reputation
both in grand opera and concert. The
newest singer to win that laurel
wreath ia Charles Hackett, lyrio tenor,
born in Worcester, Mass., trained vo
cally in Boston and in Italy and who
won all hearts last night in concert
at the Heilig. The associate artist
was Raoul Vidas, French violinist,
and his talent was recognized and
lauded by the enthusiastic audience,
which was a fairly large one, but
should have been larger. Both artists
have never appeared previously in
this city and it seems people did not
take any chances, but those who went
were richly paid by a fine musical
treat.
Although the concert was one of
excellence, it probably did not please
all the music "knockers." who are the
Jonahs of too many Portland concerts
and who can hear no music except in
their own voices.
Mr. Hackett makes good first, before
he sings a note, by his attractive per
sonal appearance and his cheerful
smile that says: "Here I am. folks.
I am one of you." Mr. Hackett's voice
is beautifully clear, silvery and cool,
finely trained and artistically blended
in all its registers. Its best silver and
beauty are in the middle register. It
was noted that Mr. Hackett used his
"top" register sometimes, just to let
folks know that he has one. It does
not do to scatter too many vocal
pearls. Variation is thus secured.
The audience apparently was eager
to hear Mr. Hackett, -and hardly Jnad
he uttered more than half a dozen
notes of the Da Rosa "Star Vicino,"
sung in Italian, than the satisfac
tion of the audience was apparent. Mr.
Hackett did not win his victory by
singing hackneyed songs, but in a
new field. Beauty of vocallsm was
marked in the rendition of the Handel
"O Sleep, Why Dost Thou Leave Me?"
This is a noble classic and it lives
in remembrance.
People were curious to hear Mr,
Hackett sing the well-known aria
"Che Gelida Manina" from "La Bo.
heme," and the tenor rendered it
in smooth, legato, beautiful voice, in
which the tragic note was absent. It
was sung as a passionate love song.
The last group sung by Mr. Hackett
was quite a triumph for him. Again
the charming distinct enunciation
won all. "Les Papillons" and "In the
Forest" were sung with such sincer
ity that each song had to be re
peated. Mr. Hackett's extra numbers
were: "Blue Are Her Eyes" (Watts) j
"A Dream" (Grieg): "Duna" (Mc
Gill); "My Little House," by the ac
companist, Mr. Pierce, and "To A
Messenger" (La Forge).
Mr. Vidas is only 19 years old, and
is a wonder violinist. He conies from
Paris, France, and his first violin
teacher was his father. Rudolph Vi
das. originally a Roumanian, but now
a French subject. Raoul Vidas, who
was also taught violin by the great
maestro, Berthelier of Paris, has lots
of talent to recommend him, also
modesty. His violin tone is golden,
and his technique marvelous. He
played from memory, and his bow
ing is strong and commanding. - He
prefers to use a "gut" string for the
E, to get the necessary vibration and
depth. So many violinists prefer the
wire string for the E. Mr. Vidas'
playing of the Saint Saetis concerto
was an admired bit of presentation,
and his own "Melodie Orientate" much
liked. His extra numbers were: "Bal
lade" (Schubert): "Romance" (Faure);
"Perpetum Mobile" (Ries), and "Hun
garian Dance No. 3" Brahms.
The concert was one pf the Steers
& Coman series.
The accompanists, Seneca Pierce
and Sol Alberti, .Doth -did admired
work.
Pedestrian Struck by Car.
G. C. Neumann, 56 years old, 673
Elmhurst avenue, received a com
pound fracture of the ,left leg when
struck by St. Johns car No. 403 at
5:30 o'clock last evening. Neumann,
who was crossing Broadway bridge
ahead of the car. became confused and
was struck by the fender. He was
taken to St. Vincent's hospital by the
Ambulance Service company, where
his condition is said to be serious due
to his age.

"I skimmed the mould from the top
of the vats, when we worjeed the but
ter and even then we could not en
tirely eliminate the mould spores.
Some ot the spots would slip Into the
butter we took from the churns and
would have to be cut out afterward."
Merman C. Raven, foreman in charge
of the churning room for the Hazel
wood company, testified yesterday In
the trial of that company in the
United States district court for the
alleged manufacture of adulterated
butter In violation of the national
food laws.
"Some of the stuff we made from
rancid butter that w&s cleaned of
mold and worked through with lime,
bicarbonate of soda and saltpetre
was sold in pound and two-pound
squares under different brands and
some of it went into the making of
Ice cream in this city. I am certain,
as 1 saw the wagons from the
factories loading up with this butter.
"'For goodness, sake what are you
giving us?' asked Joseph K. Dunne,
manager of the Hazelwood Ice Cream
company, one day, and I told him that
it was straight run, meaning butter
churned from, real cream."
Raven One of Ten Witnesses.
Raven was one of the ten witnesses
called by Lester W. -Humphries,
Ur.ited States attorney, in the first
day of the trial of the creamery com
pany for the alleged manufacture of
better without complying with the
federal statutes. Last September the
Hazelwood company paid $14,000 back
taxes to cover three years' manufac
ture of some 120,000 pounds of the
alleged adulterated product,- making
the payment under protest, and it has
filed a civil suit to recover from the
government.
The present case is. designed by the
government to prove that this com.
p&r,y made the adulterated butter,
which it denies. The Hazelwood
company is not a part of the Hazel
wood confectionery, bakery or res
taurants or of the Hazelwood Ice
Cream company, but is controlled by
A. P. and F. A. Henningsen, who are
alo interested in the Henningsen
Produce company at ISO Burnside
street.
Batter Declared Re-worked.
Raven told on the stand of the
making of tons of re-worked butter
daily and alleged that it was shipped
out in carload lots, some of it being
rejected after being shipped, and also
of how butter that had been worked
previously was again sent through
the process destined to remove odors
stud' flavors of rancidity, or, in the
words of the government attorney,
"rottenness."
,'ln an effort to Have F. L. Kent, an
expert who was placed on the stand
by the governmejit, state that he
knew of some authority that would
tell of how this process could be car
ried out. the defense met with fail
ure, for Kent stated that "it was not
considered a legitimate business by
authorities and that they would not
discuss.it." "I consider this line of
questi.oning beyond the field of pro
priety," stated Mr. Humphreys in
making his objection, and the court
upheld .him, Judge Bean remarking,
"Quite so"
Haven and other witnesses told of
how the buttermilk from this churn
ing was Immediately sent down the
sewers. He also stated that it was
unlawful to make use of lime, soda
and saltpetre in Minnesota and Wis
consin and other states in the man
ner that they did in the Hazelwood
plant. This description of the work
ing over of bad stock was confirmed
by R. C. Shomp of Waldport, one of
the buttermakers, who stated that
he could not stand the work in the
churn room any longer and asked for
a transfer.
flutter Green With Mold.
Shomp, who said he has had 14
years' experience, told of the process
whereby butter, sometimes white from
long standing and often green with
mold from being kept in damp places,
was dumped by himself in the vats
and that in his month's experience in
the churning department he had not
seen any good butter used. He told
of how the butter' "in a very bad con
dition" was placed in a vat with sour
milk and that this mixture was then
heated to a temperature of 90 degrees
and when the lime water did not re
move the smell soda was added and
the- entire mass bubbled and effer
vesced, and it was at this time that
It was skimmed. A carton labeled
"Fancy Creamery Butter" was then
placed in evidence by the government
with the statement that this was one
of the packages in which this product
was sold.
"My instructions were to keep every
one away from the third floor where
they were making this butter," James
Oswald, chief engineer of the plant,
told the jury, "I was given a deputy
sheriff's badge and we had to keep
them a long way off for you could
smell the stuff more than ten feet
away."
G. E. Oswald, foreman of the girls'
wrapping room, told how the com
pleted product was wrapped atid of
shipments made to United States
troops in October, 1918. at Vancouver
barracks .and Fort Stevens.
Oswald also said that he. told E. W.
Ellis, president of the company, of the
conditions and that Ellis replied that
Oswald was to worry as he did
not .have to eat any of it.
Wrappers Wouldn't Come Off.
Lucille Oswald, daughter of the
deputy sheriff who kept everyone
from the churn room, told-of how the
girls there could not get the wrappers
off the butter that came in on ac
count of the mold 'and how they had
to scrape it, and that the girls who
worked there had complained because
of the fact that they could not get the
smell from their fingers. Mrs. Mabel
Lonegran, another of the women In
the receiving room, stated that she
had handled butter so mouldy that
it evidently was unfit for human con
sumption. At the opening f the case Louis H.
Herb, deputy collector of Internal rev
enue, testified that the Hazelwood
company had paid no special or other
taxes to entitle them to manufacture
adulterated' butter previous to July 1,
1920. The defense failed to make their
opening statement to the Jury at the
beginning of the trial, asking Judge
Beazi for permission to reserve it until
they were ready to take up their side
ct the case. The trial will continue
today with the government yet call
ing its witnesses.

LONDON, Dec. 1. Restiveness
among the city's unemployed, cou
pled with the lack of housing accom
modations, led to the seizure bf the
town hall at Edmonton, a northern
suburb of London, by several hundred
men today. The occupation of the
building was without violence. The
men announced that they will use the
.town hall as their headquarters until
something is done for them.
The town hall at Tottenham, an
other working district near the city,
was the scene of a similar peaceable
seizure yesterday. The unemployed
men who took possession of the build
ing, however, evacuated it today when
the council announced that accom
modations had been found for them in
the coroner's court and in two large
storehouses. - ' ,
Another large body of unemployed
late today took possession of the
public baths in the suburbs of Walt
hamstow and placed pickets around
it. They then informed the borough
council that the premises would be oc
cupied until another building was fur
nished as a shelter and a center from
which to distribute food supplies.
The members of the deputation
which waited on the borough council
said they had faced the Germans and
that they would not see their children
starve.
Unemployed persons carried out a
demonstration in the borough of
Hackney and clashed with the police
tonight when the demonstrators at
tempted to occupy a vacant house.
GRAFT HAWAII LIBELED
BARKEXTIXE HELD AS RESULT
OF AGIDIUS OPIUM CASE.
Federal Government Takes Charge
and San Francisco Owners Are
Relieved of Their Vessel.
Admiralty precedent was eet in
Portland harbor yesterday when the
United States government seized the
barkentine Hawaii, alleging that her
former master, Captain V. L. Agi
dius. 'smuggled into the United
States 14 pounds of opium valued
at more than -?10,000. The .ship
is valued at 170,000 and the
charge is that the skipper failed to
declare on his manifest the dutia
ble drug to Will :i. Moore, col
lector of customs, and the United
States, as smpowered in the statutes
in a case of this kind of more than
$400 value, libeled the ship, tackle,
stores, engines, furniture , and all
other appurtenances. A deputy col
lector of customs took charge and
this morning the ship will he taken
over by the United States marshal
and a watchman placed aboard. )
According to the register the ship
is owned by Hind, Rolph & Co., of
San Francisco, Mr. Rolph being the
mayor of San Francises, and she came
here in ballast from Honolulu' to load
lumber for Adelaide. Brown & Mc
Cabe, stevedores, were preparing the
ship for her charter when she was
taken over and until the present case
is settled she will be forced to lie
idle at the dock. In the libel warrant
Charles W. Reames, assistant United
States attorney, alleges that Captain
Agidius, acting as agent for the
owners, imported the opium valued
at about $15,000, knowingly. The
offense, classed as a felony, carries
with a penalty or five years im
prisonment and a $2000 fine on each
charge and Captain Agidius has been
accused on five counts, making the
possible maximum penalty of 20
years and a $10,000 fine.
In the story that leaked out here
the skipper tried to sell the raw gum
opium locally, but was betrayed by
an addict informant after he had de
livered the narcotic at an apartment
house and failed to return for his
money. The same night that he made
the alleged delivery he left for San
Francisco and. though the federal op
eratives tried to intercept him, be
reached the California city, where the
headquarters of the shipping firm is.

under $8000 bonds, but later was re
leased under $000 bonds. While the
case should have been up for a pre
linminary hearing Monday it has been
postponed, and it was in the face of
this and possibly to assure conviction
of the captain that the government
decided to libel the ship. "
In the charge it is stated that the
opium was brought to Portland from
Newcastle. New South Wales. All
persons interested in the vessel will
be-cited to appear and answer to the
charges.
