THEIR DEAD THREE VICTIMS OF MINNEAPOLIS DISASTER TAKEN FROM WRECKAGE. THREE. OTHERS IN THE RUINS RESCUING PARTY WORKS MAN- FULLY AND ACTS OF BRAVERY ARE NUMEROUS. CLAMOR AGAINST OFFICIALS BUILDING INSPECTOR CRITICISED BECAUSE WALLS WERE NOT REMOVED. Minneapolis, Dec. 21.—Three bodies have been taken from the ruins of the Croker hotel, on Fifth street, between First and Second avenues south, which was. demolished beneath the falling walls of the Peck building at 1 o'clock yesterday morning, and three persons whose bodies not yet have been found practically are known to have perished in the wreckage. Those whose bodies have been recovered are: Joséph Violet, eighteen years old; Hans Anderson, Sioux Falls, S. D., thirty-five years of age, and James Hamilton, about twenty-five years old. Three Others in Ruins. In addition to those whose bodies have been found, there are three oth- ers who, it is believed, perished be- neath the debris of the fallen wall and the wrecked hotel. They are Charles Kenyon, day foreman at the Daniels linseed oil mill; William Lillyblade, an eighteen-year-old boy, also employed at the Daniels linseed oil mill, and William Immerman, who was sick in bed at the time the accident occurred. Exzepting the six men heretofore named, the occupants of the hotel are believed to have escaped without seri- ous injury, arsl most of them have been located and found to be safe. All night long the rescuing party worked manfully, and after the in- jured were taken from the wreckage and were cared for, the search for the bodies of the dead was eagerly carried on. Acts of exceptional bravery about the scene of the catastrophe were so numerous as to attract little attention. Plans Criminal Suit. Since the life-destroying calamity of yesterday morning was added to the other horrors of the fire of the previ- ous Tuesday night, there has been a general clamor of disapproval against the city officials because the walls of the burned buildings were not days ago removed. One prominent busi- ness man who owns adjacent property even went so far yesterday afternoon as to apply to the county attorney with a view to bringing criminal proceed- ings to inforce the removal of the re- maining walls. " The building inspector, James G. Houghton, is the man against whom most of the attacks are directed, for it was he who investigated the condi- tion. of the ruins after the fire of last week, and, after some portions of the walls had been torn away, pronounced the rest safe to remain. Mayor Haynes has also come in for some criticism, and there is a general feel- ing that some one person in authority should be held responsible and made to feel the weight of public disap- proval. BANKER M’GREEVY CAUGHT. Elkhorn Valley Man Is Threatened With Lynching. O'Neill, Neb., Dec. 21.—Sheriff Hall of Holt county has gone to Phoenix, Ariz., to get.

Boston, Dec. 21.—Boston -society is waiting with keen interest the coming of the stork into at least twenty-six well known Back Bay households this winter.

Londyn, Dec. 21.—The Daiiy Mail's correspondent at Hongkong says he has learned on trustworthy authority that a powerful Japanese squadron of battleships and armored cruisers is proceeding south, accompanied by fifteen colliers and transports, to at- tack the Russian Baltic squadron. According to the Shanghai corres- pondent of the Daily Telegraph, it is reported that a Japanese squadron of eight warships and fifteen transports is gaing south to meet the Russian squadron. Much Suffering. Mukden, Dec. 21. the Japanese army are arriving here daily. They report there is much suf- fering from hunger, but more from cold among the Japanese troops. Many Chinese bandits in the service of the Japanese are going to Mongolia, which fact is taken as indicating that they are not being paid. The Japanese are changing the ar- ranging of their brigades and divis- ions, which makes it more difficult to utilize information brought to Rus- sian headquarters by Chinese and de- serters, but the strength of the Japan- ese remains about the same. eden coal is being supplied for the use of ¢he Russian troops. There was only occasional cannon- ading on the front yesterday. YOUNG GOULD USES GUN. Fires at Columbia Sophomores Who Were Trying to Canture Him. New York, Dec. 21. — While being pursued in upper Broadway yesterday afternoon by a crowd of Columbia uni- versity sophomores who were bent on capturing him, Kingdon Gould, the son of George J. Gould, drew a revol- ver and fired over the heads of the crowd. He then fled to a fraternity house which was soon surrounded by the sophomores, and from which he was rescued by his father who took him away in a carriage under the guard of three men supposed to be detectives. On a previous occasion young Gould, who is a freshman in the Columbia school of mines, escaped from the second-year men by drawing a geologist’s hammer, which he flour- ished in the manner of a pistol. The sophomores were trying to capture Gould for the sophomore dinner to be held to-night, at which it was planned he should furnish entertainment for his captors, much after the fashion of other prisoners of war.

NELSON MAKES GAME FIGHT HE FORCED THE FIGHTING ALL THROUGH THE TWENTY ROUNDS. BRITT’S WORK WAS CLEANER DISPLAYED GREATER ABILITY AS BOXER AND BLOWS WERE HARDER. San Francisco, Dec. 21.—At the end of the twentieth round Jimmy Britt of San “rancisco and Battling Nelson of Chicago, fighting like a pair of bull- dogs, the gong sounded the end of the contest and Referee Roche unhesi- tatingly placed his hand on the Cali- forniin as the winner of the contest. In the closing round Britt was punch- ing the Chicago boy all over the ring, but his blows lacked the sufficient force to put a quietus on his opponent. The fight was an examplification of how much punishment a human being can endure and not succumb. At sev- eral stages of the fight Nelson was badly punished but always Kept Gamely Coming up to the firing line, and all through the twenty rounds he forced the fight- ing. In one or two instances he had the local boy in distress, but Britt's excellent generalship and the advice of his seconds saved him from going too close to the danger point. Nelson is unquestionably a wonder in the pugilistic world. Time after time, taking blows heavy enough to put out an ordinary fighter, he would come up apparently in his early form and bring the fighting to Britt. Referee Roche announced that he gave the fight to Britt on cleaner hitting and the great- er number of points scored, and a retrospect of the fight bears out the | justness of the decision. Although Nelson did most of the leading, Britt displayed ‘i The Greater Ability as a boxer, and his blows were cleaner and more forceful, while a majority of the shots fired by Nelson were at close quarters. Nelson was sadly de- ficient in long-arm work, and most of his attempts to reach his opponent while both men were free were inef- feciual. The house was one of the largest ever seen in San Francisco, and it is estimated that the fighters will di- vide nearly $30,000 _between them. There wete no visible m: s of pun- ishment on Nelson except some slight puffiness about the eyes, and Britt’s face was bleeding in several places from the force of the blows delivered by Nelson in the clinches. CASE AGAINST SMOOT ALL IN. Protestants Practically Complete the Presentation of Evidence. Washington, Dec. 21—The Senator Smoot investigation yesterday reached that period where counsel for the Prot- estants have concluded the examina- tion of all the persons who could be reached by the subpoenas issued by the senate committee.

Orr, one of Atlanta’s wealthiest men, was en- tered in broad daylight yesterday and robbed of between three and four thousand dollars worth of Jewelry. The affair is a mystery, the robber seem- ingly having completely baffled all ef- forts of the police to locate him. Thieves HURLED TO DEATH BY STORM. Mate of Ship Has Neck and Legs { Broken. St. John’s, N. F., Dec. 21——The Dan- ish vessel Greda has arrived here, her captain injured and her mate dead as the result of her experiences in the fierce tornado that is now sweeping the’coast.

THE DECISON! | —Beeves, $3.50 @ 6; EXPECT BANNER YEAR IN TRADE. Foreign Commerce Will Records in 1905. ; Washington, Dec. 21. — The treas- ury officials expect the foreign com- merce of the United States to develop very maierially in 1905. In general exports it is believed that the country will pass in the aggregate all previous records, although in some _ special lines exports will be below those of some previous years. It is not expected, for example, that exports of wheat and flour will break Break All | any records, but it is believed that we shall ship more manufactured cotton than ever before, and that our cotton trade, particularly with China, will be unprecedentedly larger. A revival of trade in South Africa is also looked for. Officials predict that exports of iron | and steel will go far ahead of those of the last year, and probably will break all records. They also believe that ex- ports of copper and mineral oils will make new records. It is a fact not generally known that in the calendar year of 1904 the United States will reach a new high figure in exports of manufactured articl FIRE IMPERILS MEN.
