. _ . L
The Detroit Journal’s Boilers Burst
With Fatal Results.
SEVERAL PERSONS MISSING.
The Building Was Occupied by Several
Firms and Many Hands Were at Work
at the Time of" the Accident.
The Cause Still a Mystery.
DETROIT, Nov. 7.—Today the boilers in
The Journal building, corner of Larned
and Shelby streets, exploded with terrific
force. A portion of the building, about 40
feet wide, immediately collapsed, bilryln
many people. Several dead and severe
injured have been taken out.
A great many girls and 'women were
employed in the building. The editorial
force of The Journal are all reported to be
saved. Shortly after tho fall the ruins
broke out in flames and the great clouds
of stifling smoke seriously impeded the
firemen in their work of rescue.
It is positively known that at the time
of the collapse the stereotypers engaged
on the fifth floor Were Michael Ward, Ar-
thur Lynch and J amcs Ross. All three
went down in the wreck.
In the third story was the Habbin elec-
trotype foundry, in which there were some
half dozen men.
As near as can be learned, there were
about 50 people at work in the building,
exclusive of those who may have been in-
jured while passing along the street.
Three men and one woman were carried
into The News ofiice‘in a helpless condi-
tion within three minutes after the terri-
ble explosion. Cries of others could be
heard in the ruins. ’
The people who were brought into The
News office were Martin Myer, an adver-
tising solicitor of The Evening News, bad-
ly cut in the neck and head; R. H. Foye,
advertising solicitor on The News, out
about the head; Frank G. Miner, an art-
ist in the Calvert Lithographing company,
with a terrible gash in his forehead.
The portion of the building directly
above the boilers on the first floor was oc-
cupied by The Journal’s mailing depart.
ment. About five men and boys were
there at work.
In the second story was George Hillcr’s
bookbindery, in which a couple of, men
and about a score of girls were employed.
All of these people, men, boys and girls,
were precipitated into the horrible ruins
and escaping steam. The fire department
was summoned and with the aid 6f meny
persons at once began the work of rescu-
ing the unfortunates.
Building Cut In Two.
The large building is cut cleanly in two
from front to rear by a gap of 40 feet
wide, at the bottom of which is an almost
solid pile of timbers, bricks and debris,
into which'thc first hour or two’s work of
search for bodies made but little progress.
The John Davis company, grocérs’ sun-
dries, occupied the ground floor and base~
ment of one end of the building. The
firm's list of employees is not large, but it
is doubtful whether all escaped. The gap
in the building extends through about
half of the Davis establishment. The
Journal’s mailing department on the first
floor was demolished and the few employi
ees who were there at the time are not yet
accounted for. At least a. dozen persons
are believed to have been at work in Hil-
ler’s bockbindery on the second flobr.
Some of those who escaped from the wreck‘
report that they heard screams of some of
the bindery girls as they fell and were
pinioned in the wreck. Tho Habbin Typo
foundry, on the third floor, and The J oun
nal’s stereotyping department on the fifth
floor, each contributed human victims.
The members of the editorial staff on the
fourth floor have, however, all escaped,
many scrambling in the brick and debris.
About 15 minutes after the explosion
those standing at the east side of tho
wrecked. building saw a movement in the
rubbish. A hand appeared, followed by
an arm, and helpers ran tothe rescue. A
moment later John M. Vintcr, an em-
ployec of John Davis’ spice and mustard
mills, was dragged out. Albert Lynch.
one of The Journal’s stereotypers, was re-
moved unconscious, but not seriously
hurt. Several others were later rescued
with but slight injuries.
H. C. Kohlbrand, owner of the Kohl-
brand Engraving company, whose rooms
were on the third floor. said at 11 o'clock
that two boys, each about 16 years old,
worked for him and were in the wreck.
.They were John Bowman and Henry
Welch. They were the only persons at
work for him today. -
Some of the Injured.
Those known to be injured thus far are.
Cornelius George, foreman Journal mail‘
ing room; Pressman Webber of The Jourd
mil, both legs and arm broken, supposed
fatally- injured ;. Tom Williams, assistant
foreman Journal, struck on head by steam
pipe, not seriously injured; Frank G.
Meiner, artist, seriously out about head
with glass; Miss Annie O’Donnough, arm
broken, taken out unconscious; Mai-tin
Meyer, advertising solicitor Evening
News, badly cut in neck and head.
At 10:30 the dead body of a young girl
was taken out. She is unknown. A body
supposed to be that of William Dunlap
was dragged out about the same time. HG
ran a small machine shop in the building,
the business being repairing of typesetting
machines.
As yet the cause of the explosion is a
mystery. Thomas Thompson, the engi-
neer, came out of the wreck painfully in-
jured. His clothes were all torn off and
blood was running from a. score of cuts.
He said he knew no reason for the explo-
sion and was too excited to talk coherent-
ly. The work of rescue is progressing
slowly. _ '

Miss Vanderbilt Married to the Young
Duke of Marlborough.
THE GASTELLANES OUTDONE.
Every Detail “for: Curried Out In Mag-
nificent Style—A'Descrlptlon of the
'Elaborate Church Decorations
and of the Ceremony.
NEW YORK, Nov. 7.—The ,much talked
of wedding of Miss Consuelo Vanderbilt
and the Duke of Marlborough took place
today in St. Thomas’ church at Fifty-third
street and Fifth avenue. The hour set for
the beginning of the ceremony was 12
o’clock. An hour before the church was
thronged . with representatives of New
York’s smartest society, gathered to wit-
ness the ceremony. Over 2,000 invitations
to the church were sent out, and fully that
many persons were in attendance. The
church was gorgeously decorated for the
occasion, the floral display. without doubt,
being the most lavish that New York has
eVer known.
The precautions taken to keep out of
the church all uninvited persons and to
hold back the crowds which it was expect-
ed would gather in the streets were amply
justified. As early as 9 o’clock little knots
of men and women began to collect about
the neighborhood of the church and to eye
THE DUOHEss 0F MARLBOROUGH.
)uriously the scene of the approaching
nuptials. A squad of 50 policemen from
the East Fifty-first street station were on
hand to keep the entrances to the church
clear. They were lined along the pave-
ment on Fifth avenue and along Fifty-
thlrd street to the end of the chumh prop-
orig.
- y 10 o’clock they had their hands full
to keep the fast increasing crowd moving.
At that hour the church doors Were
thrown open, and 15 minutes later the
first of the guests, intent on securing good
places from which to witness the bridal
process and the ceremony, began to arrive.
Entrance to the church was gained by the
main doors on Fifth avenue. A closed
awning was stretched from them to the
street. From 10:15 o‘clock on carriage
after carriage rolled .up, and their occu-
pants quickly passed into the church.
Crowds on Fifth Avenue.
As the hour for the ceremony drew
nearer the crowd became larger and lar-
ger. The pavements up and down the av-
enue were jammed until it was almost 1m-
possiblc for the pedestrian to obtain a‘
passage through the people. Fifty-third
street was filled with a gaping, stolid
mass of humanity, their eyes fixed on the
walls, listening to the music within and
hoping that some good fortune would give
them a glimpse of the bride or of the real
live duke who was to marry her. Traffic
on Fifth avenue was practically at a stand-
still by noon, owing to the crowds which
filled the street. The police succeeded by
hard work in keeping clear a passage for
the carriages.
Guests found the church decorated to
the perfection of the florist’s art. N0 ex-
pense was spared to make the interior of
the edifice as beautiful as possible.
The vestibule was converted intoa bow-
er of~ tropical vines and foliage. The Walls
were lined with rare palms and the ceil-_
ings hung with soft vines. Placed at the
ends of the pews at intervals were high
pillars surmounted with feathery palms
and covered with white and pink roses.
Ribbons of pink and white satin were
twined around these to hold the floWers
in place.
The choir andorgan stalls were almost
hidden by banks of lilies and roses, fringed
.at the bottom with pink and white Alpine
violets. Taking the place of choir curtains
were arches of pink and white roses.
Vines were twined about the columns
flanking the organ, springing from bushes
of roses placed at their base. In the p!-
pit was a century old palm, and around
its sides were garlands of orchids anda '
drapery of ferns.
At the entrance to the center and side
aisles gates of lilies and roses were placed.
The ushers were at their posts the mo-
ment the doors opened. They were Messrs.
F. Brockholst Cutting, Richard T. Wil-
son, Jr., Reginald Ronalds, Herbert D.
Robbins and Hamilton Wilkes Cary.
They were frock coats, with trousers of
mixed designs, white ties and patent
leather shoes.
The bridal party was late in arriving at
the church. It was 12:15 when the first
open carriage containing the bridesmaids
drove up to the Fifth avenue entrance.
The three carriages containing the
bridesmaids were the first to reach the
awning, and the occupants were shown
into the vestibule.
The Bride Arrives.
The last carriage was occupied by Miss
Consuelo Vanderbilt and her father, Wil-
liam K. Vanderbilt. They entered the
church together, and the maid in atten-
dance carried the bride’s court train in
her arms as she went up the steps of the
church.
At 12:20 Mr. Damrosch’s orchestra, in
the north gallerygbegan the strains ,of the
wedding march, and at the same moment
the wedding procession entered through
the great east door and marched slowly up
the center aisle to the altar.
The ushers marched at the head of the
procession, followed by the bridesmaids in
couples.
Last of all came Miss Consuelo Vander-
bilt, leaning on the arm of her father.
While the procession was moving to the
altar the familiar strains of the bridal
chorus from ‘ ‘Lohengrin” floated out from
the gallery, where Conductor Walter Dam-
rtsch, with his band from the New York
Symphony orchestra, was stationed be-
hind a green bower of palms and tropical
plants. " ' _
The Duke of Marlborough. with his best
man, the Honorable .Ivor Guest, at the
same time left the vestry room and took
_. -~.—.—.,-—-.;;-: kw“
- ,.
up his position under the floral arch with.
in the chancel to await the coming of the
bride. . - ..
As the procession reached the chancel
rail the bridal ,party separated, and form-
ing two lines grouped themselves about
the bride and bridegroom. who advanced,
to the front of. the altar, where the clergy-
men stood. . .
When every one was in position, the
chorus of 50 voices sang Barnby’s hymh,
"011, Perfect Love!”
Miss Vanderbilt a. Duchess.
Then followed the regular ceremony of
the church, after which the benediction
Was pronounced. , '
While the wedding party was still kneel-
lug the choir softly sang the anthem
“‘Deus Misereatur,” from the Sixty-sev-
tnth Psalm.
After a pause of a second a! two the
large orchestra and organ combined pealed
forth the march from “Tannhauscr,” and
the duke and duchess left the chancel,
and the bridesmaids distributed flowers'
. among the congregation.
On leaving the chancel the bride and
bridegroom proceeded at once to the ves-
try. room, where the marriage contract
was signed in the orthodox English fash-
ion in the presence of witnesses.
After the distribution of the flowars the
bridesmaids returned to the chancel, paus~
ing as they neared it to await the return
of the duke and duchess, who emerged
from the vestry at ’that instant.
Then the procession formed and marched
down the center aisle as the chimes pealed,
forth the announcement that the core-
mony had been completed which trans-
formedMiss Consuelo Vanderbilt into the
Duchess of Marlborough.
As soon as the church service was over
the new duchess returned to her mother’s
home, and with the duke took up her po-
sition under the floral wedding bell in the
drawing room and received congratula-
tlons.
