The New York Times article from 1903:

On a related note: I was reading an article about the B-25 bomber crash into the Empire State Building in 1945. It said one of the elevators fell to the ground but the cushion of air being compressed by the elevator slowed it down before the impact and the occupant(s) was hurt but not killed.
