SIXTEEN DEAD
OTHERS DYING.
Class Factoiy Roof in San Francisco
Collapsed While Crowded With
Spectators Watching a Thanks
givinu Day Football Game.
Fax FitA.sciHco, Nov. 30. This city
Iiiih never known an accident approach
ing in horrible detallfl that of yesterday,
when more than 100 men and boys who
wore viewing the Stanford-California
football game from the roof of an ad
joining rIuhb manufactory were sudden
ly precipitated into the interior of the
ImildiiiKi mnuy of them on top of the
whitehot furnaces. The ventilator an
nex to the roof on which they were
perched, collapsed under the strain, and
without warning M persons were hurled
to their deutli. The injured now being
cured tor in hospitals or at their homes
number 83, and of tlieeo Beveral cannot
survive.
Nearly all of the dead sustained f rue
tores of the skull or fatul injuries to
their spinal column. In only a few
cuees was contact with tin- furnaces the
immediate cause of death, for tend)
hands quickly dragged into the opfti uir
tliosu who were in thinner of hi-iny
burned alive.
Fied F. Lilly, who i mining thohe bf
lieved to be fatally iijut-d, came i,
Kan Francisco a few weeks ia'o from
New York City. Aiming hi- effects
were found a number uf letters from his
hither, Henry IJIIy, who is connected
with the firm ol .1. Kichaid" & Co.,
dealers in booln .and shoes, oil and (il
It'-iid sttcet, New Yoik City.
Charles Yost, ovenman of the irlaes
works, was raking the fire when the
crash came, and narrowly escaped being
struck by the falling bodies. He says
that those killed are those who struck
the heavy bauds that surround the glas
oven or were crushed by those who feil
on top of them. Many succeeded in
staying their descent for a moment by
holding on to the broken beams, but lie
fore they could be reached they were
obliged to let go their hold and drop to
the floor, a distance of 45 feut.
Clarence Jeter, a furnace tender,
pulled eight people oil' the top of the
retorts, where the bent was about 500
degrees. The nil drips were full and the
, 11 ilid not t;fi down until they were
! e iiptii l Sime of the men and hoys
were tcrriblt hurtled. They were drawn
awav irom tin, retort" witii long iron
pokcr need in tesihiL' the glass.
While aiding in leinoving the dead
and wounded, T. .1. Parker, a fireman,
found his own son among those injured.
The lad will probably die. The mana
gers of the glass works state that it was
impossible for them to keep the people
ofT their buildings. They disclaim all
responsibility for the accident. It is
estimated that over :00 people wero on
the ventilator when it collapsed for its
entire length of 100 feet. Some were
thrown to the main roof of the building
and escaped unhurt, but of those who
fell into the structure nearly all were
either killed or seriously maimed.
A NlRlit of Terror.
"Awful anxiety was felt for the
widow of the brave General liurnham of
Machine, Me., when tiie ductors said
she could not live till morning," writes
Mrs. S. II. Linc'iln. who attended her
that fearful night. "All thought she
must soon die from Pneumonia, but 6hu
begged for Dr. King's New Dn-eovery,
saying it hud more thun once suved her
life, and had cured her of Consumption.
I After three smull iloees she slept easily
j all night, and its further use completely
cured her." This marvelous medicine

! and Ltmir Diseases. Only 00c and $ 1 .00.

Vikx.na. Nov. .".0 Advices received
from lVmesvar, South Hungary, record
ttie rough treatment received there by
to Mormon elder emissaries from Salt
Like, Utah. The two elders had hardly
commenced to enunciate their vi-ws on
polygamy when the audience stormed
the platform and ejected thu pair from
the hull. One of them was compelled
to run the gauntlet of 200 irate citizens
armed with sticks, straps and knotted
cords, and shod with hob-nailed shoes,
lie h afterwards stripped to the waist
and strapped hy half a citizen matrons of
Teinesv.tr. The second Mormon was
ducked in a horeo pond. Finally the
two elders were rescued hy the police.
The minister of the interior has prohib
ited further Mormon attempts to proee
lyte us being dangerous to the well being
I of the slate.

A. XVI. WILLIAMS tS COIYIPAItfY
KruRer Mlmi'il an Opportunity.
New Yokk, Nov. CO. A dispatch to
the Journal and Advertiser from Paris
says Mr. Kruger has rec-nlly asked a
number of questions regarding public
and political sentiment in America so
far as the Doers are concerned, but lie
will not go to the United States now.
HiB plans for his future abode are un
settled, depending largely upon the suc
cess of his ellorts at intervention.
Your correspondent is of the opinion
that he has almost lost his opportunity
of rousing French feeling. Had lie fol
lowed up his Marseilles sbeech with spe
cific charges of the barbarous conduct of
the liriti9h and a vigorous appeal to the
warm-hearted sympathies of the French
and continental nations, something more
favorable might have happened. Hut
he allowed himself to be pursuaded to
remain silent, on the grounds of diplo
matic fears of causing trouble.
The foes of mediation are the diplo
matists ; its friends are the people and
the press. The intense interest aroused
by the visit of Kruger to Kurope is sub
siding with the inevitable result of a
gradual waning enthusiasm as in all such
events. The British parliament meets
on Tuesday, and Kruger's indictment,
including documents compromising
prominent English statemen in the
Jameson conspiracy ought to have been
launched on the President's arrival in
Paris in order to create the maximum
elled.
Oom Paul's timid misadvisers are to
blame. Had he been left to follow his
own plans the lesult would have been
otherwise.
An Kmpty Honor For drover Cleveland
Nkw Yoiiic, Nov. 30 The World sttys :
New Jersey demociats tiro interested in
a suggestion that ('rover Cleveland be
given the complimentary nomination for
United Slates Senator. Some hope the
caucus to bo held December 7 will name
Mr. Cleveland. Before the caucus It is
the purpose, His said, to have u commit
tee fall upon Mr. Cleveland uud ascer
tain where he stands regarding the prop
osition, There tiro ID democrats in the
Jersey Legislature, ogninet 45 republicans.
The opinion is expressed in diplomatic
circles that theAmerican claims for build
ing of a cruiser in the United States is
ofliuially promulgated."
The question of the consulate at liar-1
poot remains open, the Porto persisting1
in its refusal to grant an exequatur to Dr. '
Thomas H. Norton. The moral eft'ect,
however, created by the presence of the I
United States battle-ship Kentucky at j
Smyrna in support of the representative j
of the American legation, taken in con- j
junction with the settlement of the other
claims, leads the legation to hope for an
early arrangement of all outstanding dif
ferences. London, Nov. 30. Nothing in regard
to tho United States battleship Kentucky
is coming from Smyrna. The authori
ties there are evidently censoring all dis
patches. London, Nov. ."0. A Reuter dispatch"
from Constantinople says it is suggested
that Russia is prompting the Porte to
grant an exequatur to Dr. Norton. The
dispatch adds: "It is an open secret
that they dislike the foreign consuls in
Asia Minor, especially the Americans,
whom thny suspect of aiding tho Ameri
can mission work in Armenia."

Bled Quarts at a Time
"Iainaknifemakerand'workedforanumberof years in the New York Knifo
Co.'s factory at Walden, N. V. First thing I knew I commenced to bleed from
the mouth. Sometims as much as a quart of blood would come up from my
lungs at a time. ISvery time I coughed tho blood spurted out. It was in the

people told mo I had better
make my peace with tko Loid
and prepare to die, for 1 would
not live till spring. My home
doctor couldn't do inc any good,

They finally took mo to a mul

physicians m ado what they
called a diagnosis, 'Flare wcio

One professor had a little ivory
