WRITE ME FOR RATES AND INFORMATION, J. F. VAN RENSSELAER, General Agt, 124 Peachtree Street, Atlanta, Ga. R. 0. BEAN, T. P. A. Havana, Oct. 5.—The d if smiling of the troops continues peacefully. Roth sides are executing the agreement they made with the provisional government. Eleven hundred members of the militia have laid down their arms at Clcnfue- gos, which was regarded as tho most delicate point In the Island. The In surgents there refused to disarm be fore their opponents. Some hitches occurred in Pinar del Hlo, where there was a number of General Guerra’s troops. Their com manders told Major Ladd they had no orders from General Castillo to dis band. General Castillo was missing, and Major Ladd hunted for him for hours. He was finally found In retire ment at tho palace of Anita, and said the failure to Issue orders was all a mistake, and that he would write them tomorrow. Major Ladd strongly In sisted that Castillo write the orders Immediately, which the general did. Major Ladd delivered th« orders In an automobile, and the work of disarming went ont. Now that the disarming of the revo lutionists and the government volun teers is progressing steadily, the thoughtful portions of the public of nil nationalities are again discussing the possibilities of Cuba's future form of government. The desire for annex ation, which has been carefully con cealed for the past four years, Is now voiced openly, and the wish that the United States retain some measure of actual control In Cuban affairs Is heard more Insistently than ever. Representatives of leading elements, both Cuban and foreign, have been asked to attend a meeting next Sunday to discuss the probability of holding some sort of plebiscite by which all classes of the population will be en abled to express their Ideas on what the future form of government should be. The plan suggested Is the forma tion into groups of the various foreign elements, each of which will formu late Its own project of government The Idea of holding the next elec tions in January has been entirely abandoned, the general preference among Cubans appealing to favor the holding of elections In June. The ques tion of the status of congress, and whether senators and representatives are to receive their salaries after the establishment of the provisional gov eminent, will be decided In Washing ton.

F. A. Stuart Co., 64 Stuart Building. Marshall, Mich. Philadelphia, Oct. 5.—Seven were hurled to death by an explosion which occurred at 6:40 o’clock this morning In the Rapid Transit Compa ny’s subway at Sixth und Market streets. Fourteen men are in hospitals- suf fering from Injuries received In the ex plosion and there are probably dozens more who have been injured, of whom the police have heard nothing, believed thnt there are at least seven bodies still In the “hole,” as It Is called by the workmen. Section of Street Wrecked. The men were about to quit work when the explosion occurred, but had no means of escape. Caught like rats In a trap, they were either killed at once by tho force of the explosion, the falling timbers or by suffocation. At 6:40 this morning the whole sec tlon of the business part of the city on Market street between Fifth and Seventh streets, was completely wreck ed. It was at that moment that tho explosion occurred. Pedestrians and subway workers, those who were going off and coming on duty, were hurled high in the air, cars were lifted from the tracks and teams thrown Into the air and cars thrown from the tracks to the curbs. Men and Woman Hurt. Every window along Market street and the other intersecting thorough fares were blown out by tho concus sion and pedestrians lied in every di rcction. It is safe to say that hundreds of hien and women were cut, some of them seriously, by the glass which fell from every window in ail buildings In thnt part of the city. Trails of blood from tho people who were hurt could be followed as far as Second street. Within three minutes after the ex plosion occurred, the bodies of six men had been dragged away from the veige of the ditch and were lying on the south side of Market street. Pedestrians Are Killed. Three of the men seemed to hav been killed instantly. The others merely gasped for a few seconds and then yielded up their lives. Only one of these was an employee of the firm which Is doing the subway work, the others were pedestrians, apparently on their way to the places of their eni ployment. A dump cart, drawn by two horses and driven by a negro, was directly over thnt portion of the subway where the explosion occurred. The whole out fit was sent high In the air and fell into the pit which had so suddenly opened. Flames of all colors belched forth and with them was mingled the odor of burning flesh. Trolley cars which had been lifted from the tracks by the force of the unheavnl were stalled Just where they dropped and one of them had two three-Inch Joists through the roof and extending almost to the floor of the ir. Women Passengers Faint. Several women passengers were cut and fainted. Four women who passed by the bodies stretched out on the side walks were overcome by the sight of the pools of blood and were taken care of by friends. Hysterical shrieks w heard on all sides from girls and e* men. Home of the Intter ran from the scene sobbing and were not ashamed of the fact thnt their emotions had overcome them. BRIDE AND GROOM GORED TO DEATH Martlnsburg, \V. Va., Oct. B.—Fred man and his 17-year-old bride, who wore a red dress, wore gored to death by an angry bull In a pasture belonging to John Hatfield, near Richard Falls, Raleigh county, today. The young couple had Just been hur riedly married In opposition to the wishes of their parents, and were mak ing their way to the railroad to take a train. FRIENDS OF BAILEY CANT GET A SPECIAL Fort Worth, Tex., Oct. G.—The joint dehute In Houston between Senator Joseph W. Bailey and former Attorney General M. M. franc, of Dallas, Sat urday, promises to be the leading po litical event of the year In this state, and Is attracting much attention. It is expected large crowds will be present from nil sections of tho state. Halley’s friends desired to charter spedul train to run from Gainesville to Houston, but the Santa Fe railroad refused to furnish the train and Is be ing roundly denounced by Halley’s ad herents.

O O O 000000000000000O0O00000OO0 We are about to publish a new weekly. A magazine so different in purpose and scope and usefulness that people will wonder why it was not published lorig ago. It seems to us that this great country of ours, with all its forcefulness and enterprise, can afford to be constant ly in touch with itself. We believe that we have discovered a way by which we can give the people something they very much want and something that they now have no other way of getting. The unique feature of Ridgway’s is, that it will be published from fourteen cities simultaneously every Saturday morning. How are we going to do it? Well, here is our plan, and we think it will look as good to you as it does to us. We shall maintain a complete organization in each of the following centers where Ridgway’s is published: New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston, San Francisco, Washington, New Or leans, Seattle, Atlanta, Denver, Cleveland, St. Louis, Pittsburg, St. Paul and Minneapolis. In each of the fourteen cities there will be a managing editor, with associate editors, correspondents, special con tributors, artists, advertising and circulation managers. We intend with the aid of our editors all over the country to get to the scene of every important event at the earliest moment after it lias happened. At mid night of the day preceding publication each of the local editors will wire to New York a brief editorial story of the events of his section that he believes will be of interest to the rest of the country. In New York, editorial writers, with Samuel Hopkins Adams in charge, will go over these stories, shape them up, being careful not to destroy the local color, and wire three or four pages of finished editorials back to each branch, thus the whole country will contribute to the national editoi-ials. A few hours later Ridgway’s will be on the presses in fourteen cities, being printed at newspaper speed. The local news and editorials will be treated just as thoroughly by the local editor for his own section. We have secured the best man obtainable in his district, one who can reflect the life of his sec tion, in Business, Politics, Sports, Finance, Society and Education, week in and out. There will be nothing but clean, crisp, up-to-date news that will keep wide-awake readers alive to the big events that are happening around them. What about stories and illustrations and general articles? We shall have plenty of them. The best we can buy. We believe in humor and every form of wholesome amusement. Nothing will be left undone to make these features a great success with our readers. We shall seek con tributors everywhere. Ridgway’s will undoubtedly make a great many literary reputations, just as Everybody’s did. We arc already able to announce a great serial story by Joseph Conrad, to be called “The Se cret Agent.” It ivill begin in the first issue. Mr. Conrad has written sea stories that have made him famous. In “The Secret Agent” he has entered a new field. It is a story of European Diplomacy. The scene is laid in London, well-known as an asylum for European Anarchists. A story of this kind is necessarily- full of action and fascination. “The Secret Agent” is especially so. Gclett Burgess will conduct a department of humor, consisting of at least four pages each issue, fully illustrated. It will be kept up-to- date. When you see the first number you will appreciate how good this department is. Mr. Burgess will have the aid of the best artists and illus trators at home and abroad. Another feature of the illustrations will be a sixteen-page section of half-tones printed on super paper, depict ing important happenings, local and national. There will be weekly full-page cartoons, true to the topic and the times. Here are some of the contributors who are now at work for us: ' * Winston Churchill Emerson Hough Broughton Brandenbcrg Ernest Poole Harvey ,T. 0’Higgins Charlotte Perkins Gilman Ralph D. Paine John L. Mathews Agnes Laut Eleanor Hoyt Brainerd Jacques Futrellc Henry C. Rowland George W. Ogden Lucia Chamberlin One of the greatest features of Ridgway’s will be the Washington Bureau, under the direction of Martin Egan. We propose to tell you in an interesting way, every week, just what each department of the na tional government is doing in your sendee. Mr. Egan will have a.staff of twelve associate editors in order to cover every department of the government. There will be special representatives for the Senate, the House and the Diplomatic Service. This Washington Bureau will make us better Americans. We are all interested in our great big government, yet how much do we know about it? What will be the policy of Ridgway’s?—principally to tell the truth. We shall go for the big things. We shall not try to run down or over anybody. If there are two sides to a question, as nearly always happens, we shall tell the truth on both sides, and our aim will be to tell the truth, not because it pays and not be cause it hurts, but because it helps. If we give things as we find them, the average American citizen can be trusted to reach a very definite conclusion by the shortest possible route. We shall stand squarely on the platform “A Militant Weekly for God and Country.” Ridgway’s will be on sale everywhere tomorrow morning. It will be a,64-page weekly, and will be sold at I0e. a copy or $5.00 a year. We advise you to get your order in early, because advance orders indicate a big demand, and we shall not print beyond immediate requirements. You can buy Ridgway’s in the same way as your newspaper or maga zine. It will be sold by the uewsdeulcr and the newsboy, on the stand or in the street.
