WERE MEMBERS OF REPAIR GANG Two Others Not Accounted For and May Have Been Blown Into Furnace. Bodies Burned Until Recognition Is Almost Imposible, Pittsburg, March 31.—One dead, sev en not expected to live, two missing, and seven others so badly burned and disfigured as to beb almost unrecogniz able, was the terrible result of an ex plosion in a blast furnace “I” of the Edgar Thomson steel plant of the Car negie company at Braddock, Pa., early this morning. The name of the dead man is given as John Smith, probably an Anglicized form of his proper name. The others have not been identified. As far as can be learned the explo sion was due to a supposed) defect in the electrical department of the fur nace. During the night the furnace worked in an unsatisfactorily way, and about daylight a number of men were sent to the top to repair the troublue which was located at the “bleaker.” At the same time the discovery was made that the automatic electrical equip ment was out of order and additional men were detailed to' locate the trou ble. While seveneteen men work at work ither at the toy or bottom, a ‘ hang” in the furnace was found and before the alarm couldi be given, there was. a terrific explosion was and the workmen were enveloped in a rain of molten metal, coke and lime, which burned the clothing from their bodies, and rendered them unconscious. Not withstanding the danger of a second explosion, a party was organized and the men resuced from their perillous position. Only fifteen could be found, however, and it is not known wheth er the two missing were blown into the furnace or are wandering about the district in a semi-demented con dition. NEGRO SAVED BY POEM. Unique Proceeding in Mississippi Court Resulted in Mistrial. Jackson, Miss., March 31.—Joe Strong, an old negro, was tried in the circuit court at Aberdeen last week an the charge of stealing two year lings and a cow. The attorneys for the defense adopt ed a novel plea, and while they did not succeed in getting an acquittal for their client, the hearing insulted in a mistrial, and there is much doubt whether the negro will ever be con victed. Strong served during the civil war with his young master, Charles Strong, who held rank as the ablest forager in the regiment, and the defendant’s attorneys contended that their client had inherited his foraging instincts during the dark days of civil strife, and his former master was. the ne gro’s shining light and example in all material things. Pursuing this line of defense, one of the lawyers recited the touching poem by C. E. Merrill, “Old Mose—A Get tysburg Incident,” a production analo gous in fact and sentiment, and the poem produced such an Impression on the jury that a majority of the num ber were for acquittal. LABOR WORKER WOUNDED. Shot by Men Who Lured Him to a Lonely Place. Palatka, Fla., March 31. —A white man named Wood, who claims to be one of the labor organizers who re ceived' threatening letters at Tampa some weeks ago, was shot in the left arm while walking on the heights near the city. No witnessse saw the shooting and there is no information at this time obtainable other than Wood’s state ment. He said he reached this place Mon day morning and when walking on the outskirts was accosted by a white man and a negro, who offered to show him his way to a grave he was looking for. When they had reached the scrub they knocked him down, and began shooting at him, one ball penetrating his arm and another breaking his watch. He returned the fire and they fled. GOOD UVS TIG Quite often results in bad health, because what is termed " good living ” is usually the gratification of the palate without reference to the nutrition of the body. When the good liver is a business man and rises from a full meal to plunge at once into work requiring mental effoi t the result is almost sure to be disastrous, because digestion draws upon the same nervous forces which are em ployed in thought. In time the stom ach becomes dis eased, the pro cesses of digestion and nutrition are imperfectly per formed and there is a physical breakdown. Dr. Pierce’s .Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. It eliminates the effete poisonous matter which originates in the system as a con sequence of imperfect digestion. It gives sound health to the whole body. "I wish to say to the world that Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery has proved a great blessing to me,” writes Mrs. Ellen E- Bacon, of Shutesbury, Franklin Co., Mass. "Prior to September, 1897, 1 had doctored for my stomach trouble for several years, going through a course of treatment without any real benefit, In September, 1896, I had very sick spells and grew worse; could eat but little. X commenced in September, 1897, to take Dr. Pierce’s medicine, and in a short time I could eat and work. 1 have gained twenty pounds in two months." Free.

COUNTRY FLOODED , BY BREAKIHC LEVEES Now Believed That Orest Os Water Has Passed. CONVICT CAMP SUBMERGED. Battle Royal With Father of Waters Still In Progress, But Relief Is Prom ised Soon—No Loss of Life Reported In Last 24 Hours. New Orleans, March 31. —More men and more money ig the cry that comes from the crevasse at Hymelia today. The force* employed there who have been working day and night to press forward the work have been exhaust ed and fresh hands are required. The Texas and Pacific, has put on daily trains to carry laborers to the scene. Eight hundred feet of cribbing at one end and 200 feet at the other were holding firmly at daylight, and the prospect of closing the break has been brightened considerably. The river here today registered 20.2 feet, a fall of .1 foot in the past 24 hours. Colonel Ernst, head of the river com mission, is quoted as expressing the belief that the river here has about reached its maximum, if the Hymelia break continues to run. The report of the Ponchartrain dis trict today is that the line of levees is holding, and that all observable weak spots have been strengthened. Water from Hymelia is beginning to fill up the watre courses on the west bank of the river, and people who are living on lowlands are beginning to move to the higher villages with their goods and l chattels. Levee at Angola Breaks, New Orleans, March 31. —A dispatch just received says: “The main levee protecting the An gola state convict farm gave way this morning at 4 o’clock. The entire place will be covered with w r ater In a few hours. Efforts are being made to protect the camps. Angola is located on the east bank of the Mississippi in West Fellcitana Parish. It is nearly apposite the mouth of Red river. The levee which broke is a private one, maintained! by the state. Angola is one of the fin est cotton plantations in Louisiana. If was formerly owned by S. L. James, the late penitentiary lessee, but was purchased by the state when the con vict lease was abolished and the state took charge of the convicts. The ore vasse will doubtless cover the entire plantation with water, but it is salQ that becouse of the location no other valuable property ie likely to be af fected. The back levees protecting Angola will have to be cut in order to allow the escape of the flood. No loss of life is reported at the scene, ample warning having been given to all the convicts located there. The loss to the state will doubtless be heavy. Stationary at Vicksburg. Vicksburg, Miss., March 31. —The river at this point is stationary today, the gauge registering 51.4 feet. The additional break below Greenville has caused apprehension for that town, but the decline in the stream above has somewhat lessened the anxiety. No new breaks have been reported in this immediate section. The weath er is cool and cloudy. Special River Bulletin. Washington, March 31. —The weath er bureau today issued! the following special river bulletin: “There is no change in the lower Mississippi river situation this morn ing. The stage at Vicksburg Is 61.4 feet, at New Orleans 30.2 feet, a fall of .1 foot since Monday morning. CHEAPER THAN CIVIL WAR. That Is Construction Put on Irish Land Bill by Noted Nationalist. New York, March 31.—The Irish national press, according to a dispatch from Dublin via London to The Times is working hard to concentrate public opinion on its contention that the land bill is going to be financed entirely by Irish money, and that it is absurd to talk of a gift from the imperial treas ury which will really make a substan tial profit out of the transaction. This line is also taken by the Cath olic archbishop of Dublin. The Free man’s journal clamors for a larger re duction of the Irish estimates, remark ing: “To make the place hunter pay the back-renter is as near to justice as we are likely to get during the present generation, and it is cheaper than civil war.” GIGANTIC IMPROVEMENTS*. Erie Railroad Company Preparing to Spend Millions. New York, March 31. —The Erie Rail road company has planned extensive improvements which will be paid for outside of the $50,000,000 loan that was recently obtained. New ferry boats are building and New York ter minals and a massive station in Jersey City are among the other things pro jected. A cut is to be made through the heights to West End, 1 mile taking in at least a dozen streets running north and south, which will have to 'be bridged. The whole plan is probably the most gigantic in Jersey City’s rail road history. Long Controversy Settled. Washington, March 31. —A contro versy that has been before the post office department for six years was ended today by the appointment of Fred O. Blood to be postmaster at Las Vegas, N. M. 'An order was simul taneously made discontinuing the old Las Vegas office changing the name of the present East Las Vegas office to that of Vegas and extending the free delivery service over the ter ritory now supplied by the old town, which was formerly supplied by the Las Vegas office. The change will take effect tomorrow. Decision On Vaccination Law. Terre Haute, Ind., March 31.—Judge Stimsoc, of the superior court today decided that the boards of health have no authority to exclude unvaccinated children from public schools, The ca»« trill b* appealed RUSSIAN REFORMS ARE QUESTIONED Czar’s Manifesto May Not Mean So Mur>h, After All. n, PRACTICAL WORKING IMPEDED. Officials of the Czar Still In the Sad dle and May Continue to Exercise Authority Over Committees of the People, St, Petersburg, March 16. —(Corre- spondence of the Associated Press.) — It has- been stated that the public had adopted a waiting attitude toward the emperor's reform manifesto. This feeling is mingled with perplexity in regard to the orient. The emperor seems to intend to refer the reform schemes, w-hen they are drafted by the ministries to special committees representing the rural interests and the public is unable to reconcile this with the treatment that has been the reward of the local committees lately investigating the agricultural depres sion. These committees interpreted their instructions liberally and made numerous recommendations for gov ernmental reforms. Their recommen dations embraced, among others, some of the very points that the emperor has adopted and yet the ministry of the interior is exerting its utmost ef forts in order to prevent these recom mendations from reaching the empe ror. The provincial governors have, under strict instructions from Minister Plehve, pi evented the provincial com mittees from even discussing reform proposals offered by the district com mittees or have procured their rejec tion in the provincial committees in nearly every instance. It should be explained that the local committees were selected by the marshals of no bility, who are often men of advanced views. The provincial committees were selected by the governors and they gave the preponderance to offi cials and more conservative land own ers. The action of the governors of Tambov and Tver resulted! in the with drawal of all the liberal elements from the provincial committees of these provinces, in fact, of almost every one except officials. This example has now been followed by the liberals of the province of Moscow. In a letter to the Russia Vedomosti, the republication of which in other newspapers was immediately forbid den by the censorship, D. N. Shipov, the mainspring of the famous Moscow conference last year that drafted the liberal program for all the local com mittees, state that 17 members had wlthdiawn from the Moscow provincial committee on account of the predom- Inence of officials representing the central government. For some reason the liberal pro gram met a more favorable reception in the provincial committee for the province of Nirhny Novgorrod, al though it also included a large num ber of officials as their program would certainly have been adopted in many other provinces ‘f local opinion had been allowed expression and since it is similar to the resolutions adopted by a large number of local commit tees throughout European Russia. The liberals claim it is a moderate expres sion of the Sentiment of the rural population of the empire. The resolutions that were adopted would require two columns of an American newspaper. These few' extracts will indicate the •alient features of them: Popular education must be free and accessible to all, but not obligatory. Practically popular schools must, be undo: the jurisdiction of the minis try of education exclusively and the Zemstvos should participate in the contro of the course of study as well as in the financial support of the schools. (This is aimed, in part, at the present tendency of the govern ment to favor parochial schools.) Liberal support of primary educa tion by the central government is nec essary. Such schools have at least a few years course, and should pursue no ends except secular education. Resolutions favoring the extension of popular libraries and intermediate and higher educational institutions, particularly agricultural colleges were also adopted. LYNCHED IN~ARKANSAS. Negro Confessed To Setting Fire to a Store at Bradley. New Louisville, Ark., March 31. Meager news has reached here of a lynching which took place in this coun ty three days ago at Bradley, near the Louisiana line. Frank Robertson, the negro lynched, w f as in jail charged ■with arson. He had confessed to firing a store. Last Thursday night a party of 25 men, supposed to be from across the Louisiana line, rodte into Bradley, overpowered the jailer, took possession of the negro and rode away with him. The body has not been found. In the pa.st year there have been many cases of arson in north Louisi ana in the county w'hich adjoins this (Lafayette) county. Big Improvement In Progress. Chicago. March 31.—The manage ment of the Lake Shore has decided to four-track the system from Chica go to New York. Nearly four hundred men are already at work on the Im provement and within a short time fully 2,000 will be employed. The freight congestion of the last six month# was the determining factor in fluencing the management to order th* Improvement. Relief For Filipinos.

THE BBAGFICLD RESIU.ATCR CO.. ATLANTA. 6A BURDICK INQUEST ENDED. Judge Murphy Hands Down Soorohtng Decision. Buffalo, March 31.—Judge Murphy handed down his finking In the Bur dick inquest today and declared that the identity of the murderer had not been proven. The statement 1b an exhaustive review of the evidence brought out during tile inquest. Spe oial attention is given to the letter* exchanged between Arthur R. Pennell and Mrs. Burdick, particularly the one containing a threat against Burdick’s life. Concerning thesie, the judge says: “Altogether, these facts- would, in my opinion, constitute just ground for suspicion on which a warrant could be issued, were he alive.” Referring to Mrs. Hull, Judge Mur phy says. “The action of Mrs. Hull on that morning (the morning after the mur der) and her testimony on the stand has caused m@ much thought and j >r ry. To my mind they are with a perfect want of knowledge Jts to what had actually occurred. So little apparent feeling for the dead man, such an evident desire to cover up the crime and no disposition what ever to aid the authorities in appre hending the murderer, may be explain able but has not been explained.” Speaking of Pennell’s relations with Mrs. Burdick, Justice Murphy says: “His, of all others, was the motive strong enough to incite a desperate mind already steeped in wrong doing to so foul and cruel murder. He can never be placed on his trial nor can his case ever he judicially determin edL Let us be as fair then to the dead as the law presumes ua to be to the living. He must b» presumed in nocent until proven guilty.” Continuing, Judge Murphy says: “The theory that Burdick had a wo. man guest In his den that night has not ben sustained by the evidence. It has not disclosed a single- immoral act on his part.” Mrs. Paine and Miss Hutchinson are completely exonerated in Mr. Murphy’s findings which, in conclusion, says: “It’s our duty to censure Mrs. Bur dick. But great as her wropg has been, great is her punishment.” SHAMROK 111 GIVEN TRIAL. New Cup Challenger Makes Good Showing in Initial Spin, Gouroek, Scotland, March 81.—The Shamrock 111 and the Shamrock I went for a trial spin today. Sunshine and a light, steady breeze had succeeded the wild weather of the last week, and no time was lost In getting the two Shamrocks off, though the breeze was light, it was decided not to risk any thing, and the cup challengers, work ing topsails, was accordingly set. Shamrock I followed suit. The challenger was the first to leave her moorings and looked the picture of a racer as she headed off-shore. Out io Gouroek Bay the wind was so light that the motion was made more drift ing than sailing. The Shamrock 111 slipped through the water without leaving a ripple and carried her head well up. The first time the challen ger broke tack is was apparent that by shortening her fin Designer Fife had produced a hot which was- fast on her keel, even compared with cup racers. Sh“ carried her way through turning and was off on her new course, while the older boat would have been still looking at, thus showing herself free from the greatest weakness of Sham rock 11. There was no attempt at a set race. The Shamrock I went off over a mile ahead and then the sheets were trimmed on both boats anti the course was laid down the channel. The two yachts were close hauled while crossing the mouth of Holy Loch and Loch Long, and the wind was equally, uncertain. They both sailed faster as they got a better breeze and the challenger showd herself to be a little tender in squalls, but she sailed with her lee rail just clear of the water. Disturbed i neater Performance, Philadelphia, March 31.—The 18 men arrested last night as a result of a riotous demonstration during a performance of the farce “McFadden’s Row of Flats,” were arraigned for a hearing today, and 17 of them were held in SSOO bail, charged with mali cious mischief and assault and bat tery.
