THE MINNEAPOLIS CALAMITY.

[CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE.]
men added to the sickening features of the horrible disaster. The papers will all be published aa usual to-morrow. The Tribune has the use of the St. Paul Dispatch plant for its morning iesue, while the
Tribune-Star, its evening issue,
comes out on time through the courtesy of the Minneapolis Times. The Evening Journal will ba indebted to the St. Paul Pioneer Press for type and presses.
While M«Fsrs. Igoe and Miles, of the Associated Press were attending to their duties on the seventh floor, their wives, who are great friends, were attending the theater together, intending, as had often been their habit, to go to the offise and return home with Mr. Miles. When they came out of the theater the office was on fire and their husbands had perished a few steps away from them, where none could prevent or save. They spent the day together to-day, mourning the sudden departure of those on whom they depended" for their all, and sorrowfully conscious that the faithfulness to duty which had characterised both men in their deaths cost them their lives. MrB. Igoe is a native of Minneapolis, and has four children who mourn the death of a loving father. Mrs. .Miles is from Jackson, Michigan, and has two infant children dependent on her, now that her bread winner has been so suddenly and horribiy taken fromher. James F. Igoe was a native of Ashland, Pa. Several years ago he came to this city, and for the past two years and a halt has always been at his post, being known as a carefu1, conscioiicious and intelligent operator. Walter E. Miles was a native of Ireland, and hss worked in Detroit, Jackson, Mich Chicago and Minneapolis. He served as operator during the day and agent nt night was intelligent and painstaking in his work, and yesterday completed his eleventh month without a "break," which is one of the most remarkable telegraphic feats in history.
It is now known positively that Da'nl, the bookbinder, was not the man who shot himself in the hall, he having been found safe and well. Who the two suicides were is unknown, also it is almost positively known that there are no more printers in the ruin, every one being accounted for. There is a bare possibility that some printers had come to town last night and gone to work without having turned in their cards, but this is doubted. Several employes of the Swedish paper, which wus published on the eighth floor, were in the habit of sleeping in the building and nothing hns been heard o£ them.
Also some law students elept in offices in the building, and some of them may be among the lost. To-morrow's search is all that can decide this matter, and it will also Gettle the question whether the women taken up in the elevator just before the fire are among tho victims.
To-night for a fdw hours a solitary stream of water was playing ou the still warm ruins, while groups of people in silence gazed upon, or in awed whispers commented on the spectral appearance of the buildiug assumed in the mild rays of tho moon. It is a veritable ruin, and appears like the time-shattered and tenjpest-torn remains of some ancient castle, reminding the beholder of departed grandeur and glories. While thus it appears, it siauda ta.ll, gaunt and ragged, a monument to the dead who died at their post a raminder of duties performed at the ccsl of life, and from its emptying windows, like a hollow-eyod skeleton, culling down vengeance on whomsoever tho blaaie should rest for horrible calamity which might have been averted.
General A. B. Nettlston, who waa denounced by the printers in their resolutions this afternoon us the owner and responsible party who had refused to put fire escapes on the building when ra quested, has written an open letter, in which he denies any connection with the burned Tribune building for over two years past, and that while he was in charge of the building no person or persons, occupants thereof, had ev&r requested of him better facilities for escape iu case -of fire, lie explains the visit to him of the representatives of the Trades and Lubor Union, with whom he went over the measures for the protection of the lives of the tenants of the building,
Had
showed what further measures for their protection were under consideration, lie heard nothing further from them, and believed they wore fully satisfied chout the matter. He also heard from Chief Stetson, but that official ulso Eeemed to be satisfied with the measures then in use about the building, at least nothing more was heard from him about the milter. lie says that it is for the coroner's, jury to settle matter of responsibility.
NF.W YORK, December 1.—The Olson mentioned in the Minneapolis fire report as among the lost, is EJvvard Olsen, Pb. D. He was about 40 years old, a graduate of Chicago university, nnd for some years was professor of Greek ia that institution, lie was a man of lar^e culture, spok9 sev. ral languages, had traveled extensively in Europe and wa3 amoirg the best known of tho younger edueutora of the country. About two and a half years ego he was called to tho presidency of the University of Dakota founded by the territorial government. Under hitefficient management the institution grew rapidly, and at tbe time of his death there were over three hundred students in the institution and President Olsen's faculty numbered about twenty professors and teachers. II spent sev ral summers nt Chautauqua lake, and was known all over the land among the students in the Chautauqua assemblies.
M.ION, S. D., December 1.—
News of the death of Dr. Olsen was re ceived this morning »:nd eore«d genets! gloom over the city. Flags are cut trimmed with crepe. The entire faculty will leave to-morrow morning for Minneapolis to attend the funeral. Dr. Olsen was noted for his generosity, his bounty helped destitute students to provide books and clothing until at timeB with his large salary he had not enough money to buy a postage stamp. He leaves every man here his friend.
