All these had limbs broken or severe
bruises on different parts of their per
sons. James Dowell and Cyrus Schenk
have suffered terribly, and it will be a
surprise if I hey are able to pull
through.
While the police kept back the
crowd strong men rushed in and did
heroic work in extricating those who j
were imprisoned in the sinking pile, j
and removing dead bodies. Several i
lives were saved by the prompt action. 1
