CAL., May 24.— Five hundred persons were hurled to the beach this afternoon, 42 were killed and more than 150 injured, when the stage of the Municipal Au ditorium, a part of the Municipal pier extending over the ocean, collapsed. The accident occurred during the celebration of Empire Day, Queen- Victoria’s birthday. Fully 20,000 for mer subjects of the British Empire had assembled at Long Beach for the celebration. The ceremonies were taking place on the pier and in the auditorium. Five hundred persons had been seated on the stage, when the structure gave way. Piled Among Wreckage. Those seated on the stage were piled in a mass of wreckage at the very edge of the ocean itself. First reports that reached the downtown sections here said that the crowd* had bten hurled into the water. When the rescuers from the city reached the scene they found the injured huddled in a tangled mass, the spectators crowding about trying to render aid. Work of removing the injured was at once begun. Every physician and nurse was sent to the scene and others from nearby cities summoned. A special train carrying physicians and nurses was rushed here from Los Angeles at the behest of Mayor Alex ander there. , 4 The injured were'removed to the shelter of cafes, along the beach The dead were laid in rows on the sands. Forty-two bodies were removed from the debris. Many of the injured are so seriously hurt that they will die. Gibson Near Break As Trial Continues NEW YORK, May 24.—Maurice ton W. Gibson, the New York lawyer on trial here on the charge of drown ing Rosa Menschnik Szabo in Green wood Lake July 16 last to secure her estate, looked to be on the verge of collapse when led into court to-day.

May 24.— One minute and forty-five seconds after Luther McCarty and Arthur Pelky -met in the prize ring this aft ernoon, Pelky landed a right-hand punch squarely over the .big cow boy’s heart. Thirty minutes later the former heavyweight white cham pion of the world was dead. For the first few seconds the fight was on even terms. The men went at it carefully, fueling each other - •- - Pelky saw his chance. He threw all his force into a right-handed swing. It landed square. McCarty crumpled up. His arms fell limp to his sides, he reeled and fell back ward. The referee tolled out the count. Met’arty wu unconscious before ten was pronounced. His body heaved, then became rigid. Physician^ fwere hustled into the ring. They worked over the giant fighter, hut as they worked his face took on a strange black tinge. Thir ty minutes after the blow was struck the physicians summoned to the ringside, pronounced the fighter dead. An ambulance was hastily sum moned. It clanged to the ring, three miles from the city proper. McCar ty’s condition from the beginning evidently was too serious to ever re move him from the resin covered canvas which where he l.ay. The ring officials remained at the arena while the physicians worked. Most of the spectators sat quietly in their places watching quietly the efforts to resuscitate McCarty. When it was finally officially an nounced that McCarty was dead, the crowd filed slowly out of the arena. Weak Heart Blamed. McCarty’s death was said by phy sicians to have been due to a weak heart and the excitement superin duced by the fight fully as much as by the blow itself. An examination to determine whether the blow caused an internal hemorrhage was decided on. McCarty and Pelky both seemed cool and confident when they entered the ring. They shook hands smiling ly at the behest of Referee Ed W. Bmlth, Qien posed for photographs. Pelky was sure of himself, appar ently. He began using a left jab to the face. He landed three straight lefts on McCarty. McCarty tried rushing tactics. Pelky met him with a stiff left to the jaw and a right two inches below the heart. The right landed with stinging ef fect. McCarty wavered and stag gered. then flopped over on his back The blow, though a. hard one. was not delivered with the full power of the fighter, and Pelky stepped back, apparently ready to resume the fight. He seemed surprised when his big adversary failed to rise as Referee Smith began the count Pelky Placed Under Arrest. Before ten had been counted Mc Carty was evidently in a serious con dition and his manager stepped to the ropes and shouted a summons f<> r * doctor. Doctors in the audience at once responded and they began ef forts to restore McCarty. Artificial respiration was resorted to. but it had no effect and strong stimulants were used to produce a reaction in the heart. McCarty was evidently fail ing rapidly and as the doctors worked It was evident that their hopes of reviving the big fellow were lessened. After 26 minutes of effort the phy sicians suspended their work and whispered together. Then they made tests to determine whether the fighter was still alive. A brief announce ment from the ring was made, stating that he was dead. A policeman entered the ling and arrested Pelky. who had watched the stupefied by the tragedy. of the Mayor A. S. Coiyar, Jr., author alleged dictographing of Woodward and Colonel Thomas B. Felder, was placed under.arrest Sat urday afternoon at the request of Chief of Police Edward Connors of Knoxville, Tenn., on the charge of forgery. The arrest came on a capias from the Criminal Court of Knoxville. Upon, receipt of the request from Connors, ^Police Chief Beavers or dered Colyar's arrest. Coiyar was located at the corner of Forsyth and | Marietta Streets by Detectives Chewning and Norris and taken to the police station.

L, Sensational dictograph conversa tions. In which Mayor James G. Woodward, Charles (’. Jones, fnrmer Tenderloin proprietor and present owner of the Rex saleon; E. O. Miles, a private detective; A. S. Coiyar, ac cuser of Colonel T. B. Felder, and Chief Lanford's clerk. February, all figure, are made public by The At lanta Georgian to-da>. The conversations, all reported by a dictograph Installed in the Williams JTouse, in the same room and by the same man who figured 1n the ’ trap ping" of Felder, tend to throw new and startling light on the alleged plot to "get’’ Chief of Police James L. Beavers, who wiped out the Tender loin, and Chief of Detectives Lan- ford. As reported by George M. Gentry, who took down the conversation ax It trickled over the thin spun wires# through the door between Colyar’s room, No. 31, and room No. 32, it Ite apparently made clear that the Mdy- or was not only after evidenedwof i graft in the , police '^department, ttlit more directly after evidence on which Chief Beavers could be impeached and discharged. The Mayor has never hesitated to make plain that he was not in sympathy with tte chief’s attitude-. ' * The conversation in which : Mayor figured seems to »how tliat \ he promised ‘protection to the ifian who would get the evidence if be should get in trouble doing it, and that he gave assurances the work would be well paid for. The Mayor was present at the con ference with February, Coiyar and Miles. The entire dictograph con versation in which he figured is given elsewhere. Far more sensational is the con versation in which Jones, Miles and Coiyar took part. Jpn4s viciously at tacked the police department, charg ing graft and crookedness; accused Marion Jackson, Men and Religion Forw r ard Movement leader, of being the beneficiary of vice, and said he had been double-crossed in the wip ing out of the Tenderloin. Colonel Felder’s name is men tioned time and again in the con versation of the three, and more than one reference is made to the alleged offer of $1,000 for evidence. Here is the entire dictograph con versation in which A^ayor James G. Woodward took a part as it was reported to the police. A copy is in the police files to-day. A. S. Coiyar, the man who engi neered the entire sensation, of course, take a leading part. The conversa tion is first principally between him and Chief Lanford’s clerk, February, and E. O. Miles, a private investiga tor. and a friend of Charles C. Jones, who comes later into the conversa tion. Jones owned a number of houses in the restricted district closed up by Chief Beavers, which were conserva tively estimated to have given him an income of $40,000 a y«ar. He is the owner of the Rex saloon, and is by no means poverty stricken, despite the huge dent Chief Beavers’ reform made in his roll. Mayor James G. Woodward, w'hoi has never hesitated to let it be known that he was not in sympathy with the Chief’s vice crusade, comes into the conversation later and is re* ported in full. i Continued on Page 3« Ctf’umn t»
