ILLAPSE OF A BIG BUILDING. A Five-Story Structure on North Moore Street Falls with a Crash. FIRE BREAKS OUT THE RAS Neighbors Bush from Their Beds, Fearing an Earthquake Has Befallen Them. $160,000 OF GROCERIES RUINED , 4. H. Mohiman & Co., the Sufferers Had Just Moved Into the Doomed Buildings. ‘With a heavy crash the five-story Dullding 8% and @ North Moore street, which runs clear through the block to 156 Franklin street, collapsed at 1 o'clock this morning. An upper floor gave way } beneath a weight of grocer’s stock, and tons of boxed canned goods, crashing through the lower floors, carried all before it. In one great jumbled mass there was piled the $160,000 worth of stock, surrounded on all sides by tum- bling and tottering walls. The great heap then caught fire, and for many hours the thick black smoke, with only re and there a glare of flame, poured from the ruins. The building has only been occupied since Friday by J. H. Mohiman & Co., wholesale grocers. Before that it was vacant for three years, and since the @ry-goods house of Henry Heide moved from it. On the North Moore street side the building was a double one, fifty feet . front, and ran pack one hundred feet to the centre of the biock. From that Point, abutting it, separated only by a arty wall, there was the other section of ce building, front on Franklin street. This Jatter part of the building had only a frontage of twenty-five feet, The side S walls of the two buildings are sixteen fmches. The front walls, on both streets, @re nine inches, it was a structure put up in the usual way, the side walls erected first, with the inside framework maorticed into them. ‘The crash this morning came without Whe slightest warning. The ground Whook and other buildings appeared to » In the few private dwellings in t business localit: ople spre. m their beds, in a ‘bellef there ha Man earthquake. In a row of tene- Rera directly across the street, on the forth Muore street side, dozens of per- ms looked from the’ windows with rentened faces, to De met with a cloud ust ear’ the or br of timbers and the crash of failing walls, To add to the excitement, it was Bitch dark, with rain falling heavily. ‘The first’'man who seems to have Te- govered from the suddenness of shock was Daniel A, Hart, a prob tionary patrolman, of the Charles street @tation. He lives in one of the tene- ments, He rushed from the house. In the street, to the very door from which he ran, the great pile of ruins had » fallen.’ He clambered over this and without waiting to guess what happened, was away to the house of 27 Engine, ‘in Frankiin street. In five minutes a dozen firemen were on the ecene. A third alarm was sent out at onc degrees, Chief Bonner found what had occurred. First, he assured himself that there had been'no one in the butld- ing when it fell. In the day there are fifty employees there, but at night no one is in the place, not even the watch- man. It must have been the fourth floor that gave way first, the Chief said. It was stored with canned goods in boxes. With it, this floor dragged the fifth floor and the roof, and crashed through the third, second and first floors, with their contents of heavy gro- cerles, piling up from the basement and bulging into the street. ‘The party wall at the rear of the North Moore street building alsy fell, carrying the rear portion of the floors to the Franklin Btreet building, and crashing into a lass-roofed extension in the rear of fhe Vuleas Match Company, 158 Frank hac & lin street. ? The fire must have started in the Franklin street end, just after the other ction of the building fell. There were Matches stored there, and it Is believed the awful jar started them burning and Set the wreck afire. All that was left of the two buildings hen the firemen started their work @ portion of the Franklin street But even here the firemen dare nter, but were forced to keep far from the rocking walls, which threat- ened to collapse at any moment The insurance companies say, at fire came last, they are not Hable, and that not a dollar of insurance can be collected. They are not liable for the collapse of a building, as none of their Policles cover that. the Franklin street side of the fallen building, on the east, is the build- ing of Eisner & Mendlesohn, They puler loss by water. On the west side the five-story buliding of the Vulcan atch Company. Their loss will be 000, To the nearby buildings on the forth Moore street side slight loss will be sustained by the Tousey Publishing House. TARIFF LAW DISPUTE.

Nothing could be seen except flashes of light and blinding gleams as the Staff passed ANOTHER BLOW TO LEXOW. Committee Refuses to Report the Reorganization Bill, The Nyack Statesman Cal cus on the Measure. a Cau- (8pectal to The Evening World.) ALBANY, April 30.—Another obstacle was thrown in the way of the Police Reorganization bill to-day, and there is now considerable doubt if It will be passed this week. Senator Lexow made an attempt to have the bill re- ported for conalderation by the Ben- ate, but fatled to do so. He called a meeting of the Special Committee which drew up the bill, and all the members except Senator Robertson attended it. When the proposition was made to re- port the bill, Lexow, O'Connor and Pound voted in favor of it, Bradley re- fused to vote and Cantor voted no. Four votes are required to report the bill out, and. as they were not secured the bill will remain in charge of the Committee until Senator Lexow moves to discharge the Committee from con- sideration of it. Lexow was pretty mad when he failed to drag the bill out of Committee, and said some unpleasant things about Un- cle Dan Bradley, who, It was expected, would supply the fourth vote. The fate of the bill is now uncertain, Lexow will not venture a guess as to which one of the three Republican Sen- ators who previously voted against the bill will supply the vote needed to pass it. It ts pretty certain that Coggeshall and Reynolds will not, and the failure of Robertacn to attend the meeting of the Committee this morning 1s regarded as significant of his intention to vote against it. The bill has already been defeated once in the Senate. That was on a tle vote last Wednesday. It passed the Assembly on Thursday, and was sent to the Senate Special Committee, which re- fused to-day to order Its report. When Lexow discovered that his well laid plan to get the Reorganization bill up had falled, he immediately circu- lated a petition for a caucus of Repub- hean Senators to be held to-morrow night. A sufficient number of Senators signed the call and the caucus will be heli for the sole purpose of trying to whip the three recalcitrant Senators into Ine to vote for the Police bill, which, Lexow says, he will move to a final Vote to-morrow. The situation this afternoon does not justify the prediction that he will suc- ceed. It is not improbable that Cogg shall, Robertson and Reynolds will re- fuse to go Into the cauci Coggeshall told “The Evening Worl reported to-day that he had not changed his. views on the Reorganization bill since the vote on Wednesday last and would not do so, He said that the amendment giving policemen the right of appeal Would have to be incorporated in the bill before be would vote. for It. He also intimated that the amen ment was not opposed by anybody ex- cept Lexow and that the ek Senator was arbitrary in his opposition against the amendment. Comgeshall expressed the opinion that Boss Platt was in favor of the umend- ment, As soon as the Senate met Senator Lexow reported the Lexow Police In- Vestigation Committee's Supplementary Police bill.
