NEW YORK , April 13. Eight five-story ten- ements on the pouth tide of West Sixty- second street , between Tenth and Eleventh Avenues , that had recently been put under roof , fell this afternoon while efforts w ro bo- ng made to brace them up, that tbo yielding emulations might bo made secure. The wreck WAS complete , not a stick remained landing , not a timber remained whole In the entire row. Half n hundred workmen were at work in or about the building at the time.- At . least thirteen of thorn were injured , none atally. It was said that coon after the iccident occurred twenty persons voro buried In the ruins , but up to n late lour nobody had been found. The excitement about the place was so great that it was diff- icult to obetain reliable Information as to who might have been lost , but gangs of workmen employed in poarching for remains found no clue to any objects of their search up tonighta- ll. - .

This , and the fact that the build- ng - had bean erected during the did weather , of wet and frozen bricks , wore directly the cau e of the colapso , The builder , Dearies- A. . Buddensick , woo was responsible , left the idxliborhood > n a carriage immediately after lin disaster and drove to bin residence in 3 st Seventy-seventh street Where ho went rom there nobody could learn. The lolice , who arrested Matter Bricklayer Jbarlea Frank , could not find Builder Uuddensick , Ho baa been or years in trouble with the authorities on- iccount of "skin" buildings he has put up. The evidenca given by Frank and Charles 3wager , another btlck layer, ia very damig- ng - to M. Uuddenslck. The erection of the luilding bad been going on since la t Novjrr- jer - , during all the cold weather ; ibo fourth atory walla showed weakness in a oudtlen haw before the fifth xtory was reached and lad to bo taken down. The workmen were orbHdeu to carry home scraps of tim- jer - loft by tin carpenters , as by the Builder's orders these were to be used in filling in the walls to save bricks , vbich were sometimes put in by the armful. When a good thaw set in the walla began to weaken , and steps were taken TO BRACK T11KSI UP KROM 1IOTH ENDS to they would stick together until the roofs could be put on and tbo end walla rebuilt. The wall stood thus for a week or two with- out so far as could be learned , exciting the mrloaity of tha building department. The heavy , warm rain of yesterday morning completed the work Begun ) y the thaw. This morning it waj seen tbat- hreo houiea at the west end were in immi- lent danger of falling , the foundation had julged nolicably , and the walls were shaky , Sullder liuddonsiok's attention wat called to.- bo . matter. He set men to work to fix up the walls of the foundation. Four stone naeons and eighteen carpenters were at work on this when the crash came. There were oofers , painters , lathers and plumbers , num- bering ¬ perhaps thirty , at work about the resises at the time , hfty men had been laid > ff as some material had not arrived. About 3:15 : p. m. , A BIIOCT Of WARNING WJUtT Cl1 ; hat brought palo faces to many windows , The end of tbo building toward Eleventh avenue was seen to tutter and then fall with i tremendous noieo. Both foundation walls bad fallen out , and the body of the house de- prived ¬ of Its eupport , fell to the cellar. The building odjoinincr it , having nothing to lean unon , fell next , Then the whole row followed like a line of card houiea. A continuous roar fallowed , that seemed to last many minutes , as one of ler the other went down. The work- men ¬ in tha buildings for blocks around , and the people living on the street for half a mile about were startled by the shock. In- a abort time the locality of the wreck was packed by excited people whoso threuta- of vengeance on the reckless builder filled the air. When the heavy cloud of dust was cleared away the people looked npon the bean of broken bricks and piled only a few feet above the level of the street. MEN WITH BROKEN LIMBS AND BRUISED KACJtB were struggling out from under the wreck and dragging themselves painfully away , Groans and shrieks were heaid from one er two r laces and to these spots the people rushed. Firemen and all available ambulinces were summoned. People from all parts of the city Hocked there. .Roosevelt hospital ambu ¬ lances were first on hand and carried away nine of the injured. Commissioner Urennan , of the charities department undertook to di- rect ¬ the work of rescue and Building Inspec- tor D'Oonch and the exclae commissioners did work in the lama direction , Four hook and ladder companies and the crews of three en- gine ¬ companies set to work removing the de- bris. ¬ . A large g mg of workmen were prusied into service and In fifteen mlnutei the labor of rescue wa * well underway. Night let in before their efforts were relaxed at all.

The British drain Trade. LONDON , April 13. The Maik Lane Ex- press ¬ , in its weekly review of the British prain trade , says : The slight rainfall has wrought the spring grain well forward , The mminenco of war between England and [ luesia has caused native wheat to advance 3s @ 5s. The actual , business done has been very small. Sales of English wheat during the past week were 42,809 quarters at 33s 3d , against 47,770 quarters at 37a 9d during the corresponding week last year. It is believed that from three-fourths to four-fifths of the English wheat crop of 1884 has already jeen marketed , and that millers iiold but little of the stock. These condi- tions ¬ , together wlthsmall reverses in foreign wheat , and the fact that half of 3,000,030 quarters of foreign breadstnffs on passage are from two to four months off , would warrant the belief tbat the position Is sufficiently elas- tic ¬ to bring about un advance of twenty shil- lings ¬ per quarter within the week should war be declared , Values are so low that there ia plenty of room from such an advance with- out ¬ making wheat dear. How long such an advance would b maintained would depend upuii the action of Ameiican speculators dur- ing ¬ the next two months , at present the trade la experiencing extrame tension which deters both buyers and sellers from operating.

TERMINAL LIMITS OK WITHDRAWAL Of LANDS ON THE NORTHERN PACIFI- C.Commusioner . Sparks , of the general land office , to-day sent the following communica.- ion - to the register and receiver at Walla- Walla , W. T : GENTLEMKN : Un March 20th a diagram was transmitted to you with an oilice letter , advising you of the amendment of the termi- nal ¬ limit of the withdrawal of ! in your dlstrit on the duQnite location of the line } f the Northern Pacific railroad , and you were instructed in effect that the railroad company would bo permitted to select lands under Ita grant within'auch extended limits. It nppeara that [ tint change was-'ntked for in 'the interest of certain alleged purchases from the railroad company of lands not subject to selec- tion ¬ or bolo by the company ender order of the commissioner of the land oilice of August 10 , 1881. , K1XINO THE T2RUINAL LIMIT OK HA1D WITH ¬ DRAWAL- .My . attention bos been called to the matter by a complaint referred to me on the 7th inat- .by . the secretary of the Interior , alleging that the intoresta of settlers npon 119.7CU acres of land were prejudiced by this action in favor of purchasers of 2030 acres from the railroad company. I am satisfied tbat the action of the 20th ult. , was taken uuder a misconception of the pur port of the letter from tbo secretary of the interior of the 13th ult , , in reply to a letter the preceding day from the commis- sioner ¬ of this office , asking instructions In the premlies. The secretary stated that fixing the territorial limit was a matter of mathe- matical ¬ ascertainment , and if a correction waa necessary to truly represent the grant on either aide of the road THIS OmCK WAS COMl'ETHKT TO MAKK IT. such limit WM fixed by the commissioner' )) order of August 10 , 1881. In accordance with the lules used in the adjustment of the early land grants , and adhered to from tbat period to the present time , It la not ehown that any error was made in the ascertniument- of that limit m the pretent case. It was clearly not the purpiep of the secretary to change the for fixing the terminal terms , which had been applied to all rat ro&d grant *, nor to authorize the extenalon of withdrawal of the definite location beyond terminal llmiti when already fixed by mathematical ascot- malnment - In which no error la discovered- .Tha . action and instruction of March 20th 1885 , being erroneous are hereby revoked , In rpsakiDgof thti subject to-rfay , Commitftonor Sparks sold : The order of March 20th ought not tn hava been made. Jt brought Into the land grant what I thought should not have been brought iuwhen my attention was drawn to tha mutter by the letter of compliiut. After conference with the secretary I decided to revoke that order.

The British drain Trade.LONDON , April 13. The Maik Lane Ex-

press¬

, in its weekly review of the Britishprain trade , says : The slight rainfall haswrought the spring grain well forward , Themminenco of war between England and[luesia has caused native wheat to advance 3s

@ 5s. The actual , business done has beenvery small. Sales of English wheat duringthe past week were 42,809 quarters at 33s 3d ,

against 47,770 quarters at 37a 9d during thecorresponding week last year. It is believedthat from three-fourths to four-fifths of theEnglish wheat crop of 1884 has alreadyjeen marketed , and that millersiiold but little of the stock. These condi-tions

¬

, together wlthsmall reverses in foreignwheat , and the fact that half of 3,000,030quarters of foreign breadstnffs on passage arefrom two to four months off , would warrantthe belief tbat the position Is sufficiently elas-tic

¬

to bring about un advance of twenty shil-lings

¬per quarter within the week should war

be declared , Values are so low that there iaplenty of room from such an advance with-out

¬

making wheat dear. How long such anadvance would b maintained would dependupuii the action of Ameiican speculators dur-ing

¬

the next two months , at present the tradela experiencing extrame tension which detersboth buyers and sellers from operating. For-eign
