Former Said He Was Positive "No One Was Caught in Falling Walls—Surprised When the Wreckers Came Upon Hind. The investigation of the collapse of the Sagamore, a four-story Raines law hotel, in which six persons were in- jored, at Eighth avenue and Thirty-ffth street, started off to-day with the find- fag of the body of Alfred Hind, who bad been @ bricklayer employed on the building. The police insisted that all could not have escaped from the hotel when it came down with a sudden crash, but John Paar, foreman for the contractors, voouted the idea as ridiculaus. He sald he had been on the ground floor when the building fell, but that he had had presence of mind to watch the persons Who fied from the structure and that Ml got away safely, When Hind's remains were dug out he was surprised, and now the wreck- fo will be picked over thoroughly to sure that there are not more unfor- tunates buried in tt, Paar and Jacob Froelich and Jordan, af the Derloth Contracting Company, were held for the Coroner to-day in the West Side Court. 4) In the opinion of Bernard J, Gorman, Chief Inspector of the Bureau of Bulld- ings, the collapse or the building was qaused by the crumbling of the corner ment pier put in faultily during al- /terations eleven years ago.

Smith in his report says: “Brom the appearance of the wreck the cellar, which I examined, the se was due to the fact that the pler under the east column support- the corner of the building was frac- and gave way, bringing the Mpper walls dor AGAINST LAWS OF CHURCH. {Why Flag Was Removed from the Casket of G A. R. Veteran, The Rev. Edward F. Hannigan, pas- or of St Patrick's Roman Catholic Ohureh, in Long Island City, explained to-day that when he would not permit the casket bearing the body of John Coughlan, a veteran of the Civil War, to be carried into the church until the American flag with which it was wr had been removed, he was merely carrying out a formality, pre- ecribed by the unwritten laws of the ehui rh. ‘The body of the veteran was brought the ‘church by the members of, the njamin Ringold Grand Army Post. on they heard the order of the pries; .) tg remove the flag from the casket the: femained outside the church until the services were over.
