Twelve stool arches, each weighing :i:t tons, which were to have supported the superstruc ture of tho Coliseum building, in course of erection on Wabash avenue, butwuun Fifteenth and Sixteenth streets, fell to tho ground late yesterday afternoon.

The dead arc: Charlus Walpot, Edward Murray, Hank Logan, Stephen J. Thompson, .John Farroy, Richard Sher man, Theodore Thorn, Lcroy Fenner and Al Norman. Edward C. Shankland, the head of tho Hrm of E. C. and It. M. Shankland, tho designers aud supervisors of the erection of the Coliseum, and tho chief engineer of tlio World's Columbia ox position, last night made tho following statomunt: "Twelve arches, all tho nrclies of the Coliseum, under construc tion, were up. tho last one being placed in position Saturday, and yesterday the traveller was buing taken down. Tho longitudinal purlieus and tho diagonal braces at the south end were in place, but none of tho sub-purlieus had been put in position, nor had the diagonal bracing between tlie two north arches been connected up. Had this been done before the trav eller had been taken down the accident would not have happened. The accident is one that may always happen during thu erection of the steel work and before tho roof purlieus and bracing aro in place. The three-hinged arch used in tlie Coliseum is tlie same as that used by the Pennsylvania rail road in its stations at Jersey City and Ilroad street, Philadelphia; by the Philadelphia it Heading railroad in its Philadelphia stations, and by mo in tho first regiment armory, Sixteenth street, and in the manufacturers and liberal arts building tit thu world's fair. It is commonly used in roof trusses of this and large spans. The management lias decided to at once replace the arches and proceed with the immediate com pletion of tho building and have it ready for the national convention next summer. The lpss will not exceed 525,000. Tho worst feature of thii acci dent was the loss of life." FILIPINOS DEFEATED.
