Tli EAltTH SIMIKti.
JKanj Boat Are Badly Creoked and
Damaged.
On Friday last, tiny Assures were no
ticed on th streets at various placet
from Eyaon to Rook street. The
cracks war first of 11 tilt, or no impor
tance, bat on to tame veiling they
widened to a considerable degree. Tbe
portion of tbe territory moat affected U
ynon and Hampton streets, west of
Main avenue In tbe Fifteenth vrard.
Many houses are badly cracked, while
mncb of tbe plastering baa fallen from
otbera. Tbe trouble is oaused by the
big rein, wbieb It about twenty-one
feet in thickness, where tbe squeeze la
taking plaoe. At an early hour Sat
urday morning rnmblinga were beard,
and many people were badly fright
ened aa they feared a great calamity
waa about to occur. A Tbibuhs re
porter traversed tbe ground and vis
ited many of the honats yesterday.
Tbe plaoe which seemed to be lh
most seriously affeoted is tbe drag
tore of David M. Jones on South
llaln avenue. Tbe bnildlag has
dropped about fire inehes in the rear,
nd where a connection was made
about tbe centre of the struoture it
baa been divided, leaving a crack from
the roof to the gronnd measuring
about two to fonr Inches. Tbe donble
dwelling occupied by Tax Collector
Reese C Powell and Mrs. James on
Synon street we visited. There are
fonr large cracks in the cellar walls,
and the building has fallen about fonr
laches in the rsar, A noticeable fact
was, tbat tbe buildings affeoted all
drop on the side wbiob faces Hampton
atreet. Tbe main water pipe on Hamp
ton street was bursted by tbe eruption,
and a gas pipe at the corner of Main
avenue broken. In many places a por
tion of the sidewalks bave heaved up,
and the oraeks in the road, whiob at
first could barely be discerned, have
greatly widened.
School biildlng No. 13, on Eynon
atreet, suffered little damage, although
the yard contains many fisinres, Con
trary to the announcement in yester
day's Free Press there will be school
today. If there is not another settle
ment in tbe ground the damage oan
probably be easily repaired. Bat as
matters stands tbe buildings are now
in suoh a condition, and tbe founda
tions so uncertain, that another slight
cave would oanae a few of them to tot
ter and fall . Mrs. Gore, of Hampton
street, was overcome with the odor of
gas from tbe break In tbe pipe, but is
bow recovered.
LEWIS WILLIAMS BURIED.
Impressive Funeral Bervlcss Conduoted
at tbe Home.
The funeral of Lewie H. Williams, a
prominent young man who died on
Thursday after a prolonged illness, oc
curred at 9 o clock yesterday afternoon

mense number tbat attended the ser
vices. Rev. B. Q. Jones, pastor of tbe
Snmner avenue Presbyterian ohurab,
officiated and preached an eloquent
discourse on tbe exoellent and manly
qualities ot tbe deceased.
Tbe floral offerings were beautiful
A peculiar and very appropriate trib
ute wsi presented by the employee of
tbe Western Union Telegraph com
pany, where the young man was em
ployed as operator. It resembled a
broken circuit, with Mr. Williams'

left.
