There is some mystery attached to his fate, however, and his widow when seen at her home to-day-expressed the belief that Hurst met with foul play that caused his death. The incidents attendant on- his death date back to Sunday afternoon, July 30. when Hurst was first brought into newspaper publicity through his presense at the Farragut Cafe, at Rogers avenue and Avenue F.

"It was about 8:45 and 1 had my back turned to the store while I was getting my stock in shape. There was not a half dozen customers in the store within my vision at that time. 1 heard a roaring and a tearing sound, much like thunder, and then the crash and shrieks that followed Crowned out every other sorrel. WTh the other male clerks my first thought was for the girls, many of whori sank behind their counters and had to be dragged cut in lifeless condition. It was awful for us, but It must have been twice as bad for those who were caught in the rear of the store, where the building collapsed." The work of rescue organized slowly.

Firemen, Italian laborers, clerks with business and professional men who had heard Tie crash on their way to their offices and rushed in to help all toiled together like beavers on the great mound of lath, plaster and twisted beams.

Mrs. Gordon said that for a week he had been drinking considerably, and yesterday he re the owners of the cafe where the trouble took place, and who was present in court to have an examination into the charge of his having violated the excise law, advanced to the bench and told Magistrate Steers that Gramlich. who also was absent from the proceedings, had determined not to prosecute Hurst. The case was then dismissed.

The news of Hurst's death in the Bushwick Hospital some time this morning was reported in the court to-day. It then became known that Hurst had been taken ill last Wednesday night in the 6ame saloon in which he had had the trouble on the Sunday afternoon previous. An Eagle reporter called on Mrs, Hurst at her home at once and ascertained that Mrs. Hurst thought the circumstances of her husband's death very strange. She said that he went out last Wednesday with their little son and, putting him on a car a few If there was no way to prevent such a publication and was advised to "see Tom Reynolds right away." He was directed to go to 256 Jay street, a florist's shop, and told that he would find Reynolds there.

Purcell says that he went to the place and met Reynolds, who repeated substantially the same story that had been told over the tele phone. How, much will it cost to stop it?" Purcell says he asked. Reynolds then, according to the statement, explained that a certain "space writer" had "worked up" the story and that It would be worth about $10 to hiin if published. Reynolds offered to go with Purcoll to the paper's Brooklyn office and "fix it up" with DIVORCED IN A HOSPITAL. SERIOUS RUNAWAY ACCIDENT.

Employes to Eescue. Every contractor had men employed (in the city suspended work and offered assistance and within an hour after the building fell the laborers were arriving by the wagon load. Four lines were formed, reaching from the scene of the collapse to tho sidewalk, and along these the debris was jpassed as fast as it could be removed. In back of the store, which abuts on James street, the work progressed in the same way. Here a score of employes were found imprisoned In the cellar, where they had been thrown from the floors above.

Most of them were conscious and several directed the work of rescue. The fire escapes at F. Smith had bought a diamond ring for which he promised to pay $114. This he had not done. He also borrowed $74, which he did not return and put furniture into his house valued at still unpaid for.

Christopher Donnelly borrowed $59 and forgot all about it. Judgment in the civil courts had been rendered against all these men, but the unfortunate creditors are still looking for their money. Commissioner Farrell adjourned the cases under promises from the delinquents that they would pay up. Patrolman Harry C. Neuchafer, of the Eastern District bridge squad, was fined two days pay for being off post.

Patrolman Harry C.

The case outlined is one chosen from a number ct similar stories told by hotl proprietors and managers.
