CAUSE . Of THE COLLAPSE
Indignation Kxproaned by the Oerku
They Hold the Official Keionnl!)le
fur the Awful Affair.
Associated Press. .
wasnington, June 10. The sad re
sult of the downfall of. the old Ford's
Theater furnished the principal topic
of conversation all day. The opinion
Is unanimous that there la blame some
where for the shocking fatality, and
many men echoed the words of Dr.
l Cartlett, that the accident was not one
the responsibility for which could be
laid upon God. The more the matter
is discussed and the farther along the
work of clearing awy the debris pro
gresses, the more evident this becomes,
This morning the uninjured clerks In
tha doomed building were about the
scene of the disaster discussing the sit
uatlon, and holding little indignation
meetings It is evident the feeling is
very strong among them, and many
are loud in expressions of condemnar
tiiorr for the officials of the government
Who herded them together In such a
lHullding. Colonel Sifqvvart, superin
tendent of construction of the new city
post office, seemed to think as others
do, that the whole trouble came from
the weakening of the structure caused
by the excavations In the front part of
the building.
There is no decrease In the general
feeling of indignation, that fills the
city over the awful disaster. There
was much comment over .the fact that
noVa flag on any of the-public build
ings was half-masted- today.
Secretary of War Lamont arrived
here this afternoon, and had a confer
ence, wltfi Acting Secretory Grant and
C.olonel Ainsworth, with regard to the
future action of tha department con.
cerndng the calamity. The records of
the war department show that the
collapsed . theater building was for
years known officially, to be unfit for
human occupation by reason, not only
of tha structural weakness but also
because of its defective sanitary condi
tlon. The frightful accident calls to
the attention of the officials the con.
dltion of other, public buildings which
are said to be more or less unsafe. The
building occupied by the war depart
ment and the second auditor of the
treasury Is frequently criticized, and
clerks who work there assert It la none
too safe. The Busch building,' which
forms "an annex of tha postofflce de
partment, is another of these struct
ures about which clings an unsavory
reputation, for safety and substantial
ity. The patent office, a massive stone
structure, Is exempt from general crit
icism. The building; in which the of
fice of the sixth auditor of the treasury
department 1b located, though new, is
so heavily weighted with public docu
ments and other material that the
floors have sunk from two to three
Inches already, and the clerks are In
constant fear. There is no more dan
gerous trap In the) city than the
patched-up government printing office,
which has been from time to time
strengthened by wooden and Iron sup
ports.
VICTIMS OP FRIDAY'S CALAMITY.
Washington, Juna 10. The death list
resulting from the Ford's theatre acci
dent now stands at twenty-five. The
stories of suffering and distress grow,
lng out of ; tha ' calamity are heart
rending. A coroner's Jury was Impan
eled this morning and will begin the
Inquest Monday. An Investigation will
also be made by the war department,
I. W. Boody, of New York, reported
In the list of dead, escaped uninjured
This makes the total number of deaths
twenty-two. There Is also a doubt
about the death of Jarvls, of Michigan.
GERMAN POLITICS.
Berlin, June 10. At the general elec
tions for members of the reichstag on
Thursday next, and the bye-elections
sure ta be required, 397 members of the
house, a full complement, will be re
turned. The present week closed with
1,550 candidates In the field. Not only
new aspirants for seats, but new po
litical factions appear daily, and as the
election dally draws gradually nearer,
tHa confusion grows worse. Instead of
eight recognized parties In the late
reichstag holding the electoral field, jn
the present campaign, there are about
twenty secrlops, each fighting for Its
own program. Among the latest devel
opments In the political situation la a
break-up among the anti-Semites. The
Jew baiters consist of three distinct
factions. The final result must de
pend on political combinations. Every
thing promises that the new reich
stag will be the most motley parlia
ment known to lildtorv. Dvi. -

more so In Austria.

THE CANAL STRIKE.
Chicago, June 10. Everything was
quiet In tha quarries and along the
drainage canal In the neighborhood of
Lamont today. George Kiskane was
added to tha list of those killed In yes
terday's fight. He died this morning,
Another body was found today, but the
nam of the victim Is unknown, though
it Is said ta be one of the strike lead
ers. Later In the day another un
known body was found riddled with
bullets. It Is now believed there are
from three to five bodies In tho canal.
Governor Altgeld held a conference
of tha strikers and contractors. After
considering the testimony, he gave out
the statement that his opinion, so far
as tha Investigations have gone, Is that
the shooting of tha strikers hy the
drainage men was unprovoked, and un
called' for';'; The list of dead will be
Increased more than half a dozen from
among .those wounded. ;
Tonight eleven companies of militia,
comprising about A00 men, are camped
along tha canal near Lamont, the scene
of yesterday's riot. There Is no sign
of any trouble.

wounding the messenger, who still re
fused to open. Then tha robbers blow

(Correspondence of The Astorlan.)
Chicago, Juno 6th. A consldernbl
number of people have deferred visit
lng Chicago on account of reported ex
tortlonate charges for food and lodging,
For tho Information of such persons
I will state that comfortable rooms at
convenient distance frcn the fair
grounds rrn readily bo had from $1 to
$2 per day. As for restaurant charges,
they aro about as usual. The accom
panying bill of fare will show that
tha cost of living is not above 50 per
cent more than It Is In Astoria. At
the chop houses convenient to the
grounds a good plain meal may be
had for 25 cents, although If one hunts
for expensive hotels they can be found
In Chicago as well as elsewhere. In the
fair grounds the charges are somewhat
higher, being about equal to those of
railroad restaurants and church socials,
Any person coming here with the Idea
of ''cutting a figure" or "doing the
fair" can dispose of considerable
money, but tha cost of a month's res!
denca In Chicago need not exceed the
very moderate sum of $100, divided as
follows:
, Sleeping accommodations $30.00
Admission to the fair 15,00
MtaJs .....32,50
Admission to Bide shows 22,50
Total...; $100.00
There Is quite a lively competition
among the) hotels .and Ireritaurants,
owing to the fact that the crowds are
much smaller than anticipated, and
until these conditions are changed no
one need fear extortions In any par
ticular.

The Irish village In the Midway

Castle, Inside the castle are rooms
where Irish work Is exhibited. An old
man whose face, to quote the words
of Col. Pat Donan, "Is almost an exact

land," plays the Irish bagpipes. This
Is an improvement on the Scotch, If

THE COUNTRY'S WHEAT CROP.
Washington,- Juno 10. The report of
June 1st, based on returns to the de
partment of agriculture, makes the
acreage of winter wheat, compared with
that of last year 87.83, being a reduc
tion of 12.2 points. The states In
which the principal decrease occurred
are Illinois, Missouri, Kansas and
California. The reduction of area in
the states of Kansas, Missouri and Il
linois was caused In tho main by tho
long-continued drought and extreme
cold winter. The vaBt amount of acro
ago sown has been plowed up and put
Into other crops. The conditions of
spring wheat pressage an average for
the entire country of 86.4.
