MACON, GA., SATURDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 19, 1904. DAILY—*7.00 A YEAR DISASTROUS SERIES OF GAS EXPLOSIONS Four Persons Killed and Many Injured TANKS OVERPRESSED Dead Buried Under Tons of Burning Timber, Brick and Iron—Many Pe destrians in Street Near Scene of Accident Were Hurt by Pieces of the Flying Debris. CHICAGO, Nov. 18.—Four persons ■were killed and a score of others were Injured by a aeries of gas explosions that completely destroyed the plant of the Pyle Electric Headlight Co., In South Chicago today. The shocks of the explosions were so severe that all the buildings near the demolished plant were badly damaged, windows were shattered for blocks and persons walk ing the streets were thrown from their feet. Over pressue on tanks contain ing gas Is believed to have caused the accident. The dead: Ralph Wells, supeintendent for the Pyle Electric Headlight co. Amos Watkins, assistant superin tendent for same company. George Muehl, draftsman, employed by the People's Gas Light Company. Thomas Jennlgs, employed by the Pyle Electric Headlight Company. The fatally injured: Wm. M. Maloney, blown from third floor of building body crushed. Alfred Cox, Internally Injured. Pedestrians Injured. Many persons who were walking in the street near the plant were hurt by flying pieces of debris and were taken to their homes In carriages before their names could be learned. All of the dead were hurled under tons 0$ burning timber and hot brick and Iron, making It impossible to re move their bodies for hours after the accident occurred. Firemen poured water upon the portion of the building In which the dead were thought to bo burled. The flames were subdued suf ficiently to permit of the four bodies being removed from the debris. The scene of the qxplosloji Is. the old Hyde Park gas plant, which passed In to the hands of the People’s Gaslight nnd Coke company several years ago with the consolidation of the gas Inter ests In Chicago. Through lease the big plant Is occupied partly by the Pyle National Electric Headlight Co., which is largely engaged In supplying Illumination for railroad coaches. This llluminant Is forced into small retorts which when attached under the floor of a car will supply it with light for months. In order to make this possi ble the retorts are subjected to an ex tremely high pressure. Burst Without Warning. It was such a tank that caused the first explosion. Without warning of nny kind It burst. Amid the debris workmen were blown out of the struc ture far Into the street about the build ing. Before any one realized what had happened retort after retort exploded In such rapid succession that it was almost impossible to distinguish the detonations. There were nine such explosions In all. which left the plant in flames. Hard fighting on the part of fully a hundred firemen finally sub-, dued the flames. The total loss caused by the acci dent Is estimated at $75,000. SIX MEN RESCUED. They Were Saved After Eighteen Hours in an Open Boat, NEW YORK.

HART GETS TEXT OF THE COURT’S DECISION Supreme Tribunal of United States Reversed Findings of Lower Court Railroad Tax Case. PROTESTED AGAINST INNSBRUCK AFFAIR Practically Entire Population of Rome in Attendance Upon Monster Public Demonstration. ROME, Nov. 18.—An Impressive meeting to protect against the Inns bruck affair was held this evening at the Qufrlno theatre. The stage was decorated with the banners of Italian cities that are still subject to Austria. Among the notable people on the stage were Bjornstjerne Bjornson and his wife, whose appearance was greeted with tremendous applause. The thea- tre would accommodate only a small part of the crowd that sought admit tance. All the speakers called upon the peo ple of Rome to make a solemn and dig nified protest, worthy of a civilized people. Jealous of their rights, dgtfinst the killing and mal-treatment of fellow Italians whose only offense was that they stood for their race in history, na. tlonal Italy, and culture. The speeches were frequently interrupted with storms of applause, mingled with In vectives against Austrians. An order of the day, embodying the opinions expressed by the speakers was voted by acclamation and amidst cries of "Long live Italy** and "Garibaldi for ever.'* After the meeting the crowd, as If In obedience to a command, made a rush for the Austrian embassy and consul ate, situated in the piazza colottna. In the center of Rome, to make a demon stration there. The incident had been anticipated by the authorities and pre cautions had been taken accordingly. At all the atreets opening into the plaza police, carbineers, bersaglleri and cavalry had been stationed and these halted and turned back the mob from the vicinity of the embassy. Practically the whole population of Rome, except the Socialists and Anar chists, participated in the demonstra tion. XTLANTA, Ga., Nov. 18.—Attorney General John C. Hart received from Washington today the full text of the decision of the supreme court of the United States. In the case of Comptrol ler General Wright against the Geor gia Railroad and Banking Company, for the collection of taxes on $1,500,000 worth of stock of the Western Railway of Alabama owned by the Georgia Railroad and Banking Company. The supreme court reversed a decision of the circuit court of appeals, the latter having affirmed a decree of the circuit court enjoining the comptroller general of Georgia from collecting tax for the year 1900. While neither Attorney General Hart or Comptroller General Wright, will dlscusse the future In connection with the case, or what action the state will take to go beyond the five years taxes for which this case was brought It Is safe’ to say that at the proper time Comptroller General Wright wll make a demand upon the Georgia RaH road and Banking Company for every dollar due the state for taxes and in terest on the $1,500,000 worth of stock since v Jt was circulated in 1889. Now that the supreme court has held thaV the stock Is liable to taxation, by the state, the comptroller general, it is said Is of the opinion that taxes are due on the stock from the date of the Issue up to the present time. With reference to the $1,500,01)0 worth of stock of the Western Railway of Alabama, owned by the Central of Georgia, It is said that the comptroller general will at an early day make a demand upon the Central of Georgia for tax on it also. He holds, so It Is said, that while the stock Is In Now York In the pos session of the Central Trust Company, It Is theree only as collatrlal for a loan, and that the ownership Is still In Geor gia, and In consequence the stock Is ns subject to tax as the stock of tho Georgia Railroad and Banking Com pany, nnd which Is being held by the Louisville and Nashville and the At lantic Coast Line. If the Louisville and Nashville and the Atlantic Coast Line, lessees of the Georgia Railroad and Banking Com pany, and the Central of Georgia are made to hand over to the state taxes and Interest on the $1,500,000 worth of bonds owned by each for the full limit of fourteen years, the state of Georgia will be getting in about $300,600 from these corporations.
