Terrific Explosion of Powder In a Rail

HUllllIK'llfli.
Mayor Horne Cast a Bomb Into the
Conncil Meeting Last
Night.
AN INVESTIGATION WAS ORDERED
sriVDNTY-FIVE WERE KILLED.
Butte, Mon., Jan. 15.—^During a fire
at the -Montana Central railway yards
this evening several cars of powder
caught fire and exploded with tremend
ous force, killing s number of work
men and spectators and maiming many
others. Several men are k.nmi. lo have
been killed outright. There were three
separate explosions, the first two
breaking nearly every window within
radius of two miles. Owing to the ex
citement the extent of the casualties
cannot be learned.
The fire attracted a large crowd, and
hundreds wore standing near when tbe
first explosion occurred. Men anil wo
men were mowed down like grass be
fore a sickle, but many were stunned
by the force of tbe explosion. DehrWt
from cars and adlolnlng buildings
scattered high In the air for half a mile
away, many of the flying articles strik
ing people In the crowd. Every ambu
lance, vehicle and doctor In town was
soon on the scene carrying off the dead
and wounded. The ground was strewn
like a field of battle with the Injured
and dead. Owing to the fact that there
were Mill several cam of powder on
the track, and the report that one of
Iho burning warehouses also contained
quantity of powder, few dared stay
list the wounded.
When they did 'they were met by a
second explosion like a reeking fire
from an army. The second was soon
followed by the third, and the heavens
were lighted with flame. The reports
were heard and the shocK felt for miles.
After The third explosion the hospital
corps and the police began to pick up
the dead and care for the wounded.
Fifteen dead bodies were piled together,
and, many of them being mangled to
such an extent that they were not Iden
tified. Every house In the vicinity was
turned Into a hospital. The scene ar-
ter the explosion was beyond all de
scription. Men and women were cry
ing In agony. It Is said That every fire
man was either killed or fatally wound
ed. It Is believed that the number of
dead will reach at least seventy-five.

The announcement of the Investiga
tion fell like a bomb on both m-.”itoer*
and spectators at council meeting last
night, as no intimation of it had been
given to the public before. A communi
cation from the mayor was the vehicle
on which the nows was carried lo the
public ear, as well as to tin nr-mbets
of council, with tho exception of the
chairman of the cemetery committee.
The communication, which wan one of
several sent in by the mayor, was as
follows:
“It has come to my knowledge that
during the past year there were Irreg-
utsfritifs In the accounts of the ceme
teries department, and for the purpose
of a full Inv&ttlgatlon, which, in Jus
tice Jo the sexton, as well 'as to the
city, should be made, I recommend that
a special committee he appealed to

bids for lighting tbe city, and the re
quest was granted. •
The committee on printing submitted
a report on printing the proo-edlngs of
council In the newspapers. The report
contained two bids, one from the Eve
ning News for 20 cents per luch and
one from the Telegraph for 25 cer.u
per Inch of ten lines nonpareil. Aider-
man Juhan, chairman of the commit
tee on printing, said It appeared to him
that It would cost Ion much to h.’’-e
the proceedings printed, and offeroir a
resolution that neither hid he accept-
Alderman WlllltKha n raid he

lishcd, as tlte people were entitled to

and he would, therefore, offer as an

For n moment after the clerk. quit
reading, the utmost silence nr^nrafled,
but In another moment Alfcrnian Van
was on his feet with a motion to li.v
the comunlcatlon on th* table. The
alderman sold ho thought the reoum-
meudatlon was a slur on the cemetery
committee, of which ho was kj'mtmtwr.
and wus in tbe act of making nrtber
statements wheu the chair cs'laj him
to order, his motion not hiving re
ceived a second.. Alderman Van did not
stop, however, and said it. Airman
Peavy, who Is chairman of the ceme
tery committee, did not hare sj-unk
enough to spook for himself ho (Van)
did. Tho alderman was excit-d. and
roundly denounced the communication
and recommendation, naylng that the
matter should have been made known
to tho cemetery commute*. Alderman
Peavy lntevupted Alderman van by
offering a resolution to have the matter
roferrtd to a special committer, saving
he did not want the cemetery commit
tee to have anything to Jo with the
Investigation. Alderman Van ohpoeed
the motion, and In dolug no said ho did
not .think the chairman of the ceme
tery committee should go about hunt
ing up charges against the sexton with
out consulting tile other members of
the committee. Alderman Van lout con
siderably more tosa-y In ipp wiuon, hut
Aldtrman Peavy'* moil >n n il carped.
.After tho minutes of the previous
meetings, regular and apodal, hadfeeen
rispooed of, the olork began reading pe
titions by th* score. Among the a>--tl-
tlous was one from Birdsong, asking
council to resdnd Its action in annull
ing his license. Alderman Van moved
the petition he granted- Alderman
Willingham offered aa an amendment
that the mutter be referred to the po
lice committee, and the amsndment
was carried.
The next petition was from some
half doaen Chinese laundrynten. ask
ing that the license on laundries he
made the same ns that ot lust you,
as they did their washing with their
hands. The rending of the signatures
to the petition brought down tbe house,
so to speak, as tha clerk rapidly read
Chang Woo. One Lung, Si ill, Cbing
Foo, etc. The -petition, with a score of
others front people in nil kinds of bus
iness, was referred to the finance com
mittee. Mr. E. A. C.ibea, attorney for
I. llaHhlnski, submitted a petition to
have the money paid for the lloense of
Bastdnskt whldh was revoked a sue time
ago refunded. Tile petition went to
the finance committee.
Tile presence ot a large number of
leading citizens of VlnevYle. -who were
conspicuous in tlbe audience, avns ex
plained by the next petlll-m, srtaiob
was to have the mayor and council
call an election at nn early date for
the annexation of Vlnevllle. The pe
tition wti# singned by fifty h iding cltl-
sens and property holdera In VlnewHIo,
and ipeclfled Che limit* proposed to be
Incorporated. The prevision* contain
ed In tbe petition were Shit before

was a liberal one and show*-1 that ISte

with the fflty's old debts under tbe

tition ho referred to A special com
mittee, consisting of three aldermen,

Alderman Van offered as nn •
ment that the -petition take that _
provided the provision prohlMtfng the
si'.e of whisky was sllcken out. saying
he thought all parts of the '-tty could
be governed alike. Tho amendment
mas defeated and the original motion
of Mr Ryals was carried. Tbs com
mittee will meet at 7:10 Friday _
The committee on Uga's naked fur
ably impressed with M-.icon, that they
were still considering the ndvleahllltv
of loctltlng her,-. A subsequent resolu
tion to have the original resolution pub
lished. and that Mr. Whittier be noti
fied was adopted.
Alderman Juhan offered n resolution
to have all dead timber in the city
reserve out and corded for distribution
among the poor, wvui carried.
The next ordinance brought Alder;
man Van lo Ns feet ftth even more ve-
romeoe than he had previously shown,
an ordinance Introduced fey the
Washington, Jan. 15.—The senate
finance oommittce today consumed two
hours in a futile attempt to get to
gether and devise some financial
scheme that would meet with the ap
proval of all parties In the senate. The
meeting wus as much (g a failure as
any ot those preceding It. Mr. Alc-
Pherson’s and Mr. Vest's-bills were dis
cussed in a casual manner, but there ap
peared to ho no Interest In either. The
bill that Mr. Jones has been -preparing
was also up for dlscusalon, but Mr.
Jones seemed to be doubtful about lie
Introduction. He frankly admitted to
the committee that he had canvassed
tlte situation and found it almost Im
possible to get any number of senator!*
» agree t- !'; *»w«n »h*» utlvi-r men unon
horn he had confidently relied for sup
port had declined to accept tho bill, he
said.
Nothing wu„ offered today that looked
to a flt.-al determination of the trouble
some question.
There were other conferences tltere
besides that held fey the committee of
finance, and each had for Its object the
Name financial questions. Success at
tended none of them. Silver men refuse
to accept the unlimited coinage of sli
ver with 'the seigniorage proviso as suf
ficient for their needs;, the Populists
will have none of 11, and the Republi
cans today told the Democrats In tho
committee that they would only help
them in a. temporary manner, blit along
Republican lines, if the Democrats were
unable to do anything themselves. Un
der such a combination of circum
stances the outlook for the Democratic
senator Is none too bright.
In the afternoon the Republicans of
the committee held a conference in
Senator -Sherman's room nnd discussed
the situation. They were unanimous In
the conclusion that the lime had not
come for Republicans to offer any sug
gestions to tlte Democrats. If the Dem
ocrats could not agree upon smy meas
ure. and if. after consulting and con
ferring together, they admit’ -I the
ease was hopeless In their hands, then
the Republicans would make known
what they would do and what sort of
a measure they would support. They
will join the Democrats In two different
methods of raising revenues for the
treasury. One -provides for an Increase
In the revenues from customs, and the
other provides for nn issue of bonds
pure and simple to tide the treasury
over Its troubles until congress again
meets, when the-congress can take up
the financial question with ptenty of
time to consider what Is best <o he done.
ThU ultimatum of the Republicans will
be made known to the Democrats at
the next meeting of the committee.
Meanwhile Democrats were conferring.
In ilr. Jones' room there were Sena
tors Gorman. Jones and Camden. _ and
mayor, providing for a c mpulieary f or , t wo hours they looked at the *ltua-
street force to be under the direction of tion trom all points nf view. Earlier
the street' committee, the force to be
used In Working the slrees of the city
Alderman Van muved that It do not
pass, but could get no second. Aider-
man Happ moved that It pass and got
a second In Adornvin Willingham.
Alderman Van strenuously approved
approved It* passage and dwelt In de
taH on what a disgusting sight such
a gang would be to the eyes of vlsl-
tora. He wild people would sliun Ma
con when they saw a gang of convicts
with striped dentes, wearing shnrklea
and guarded by men with shot guns
working the public streets. -He also
sold tbe city bad a contract with the
county for the use of he offenders sent
to tho gang from fhe recorder’s court,
and concluded with nn amendment that
It go to the ordinance committee to
consult with the city attorney. This
was the only way to save th# ordinance
from passage, -as It -was evidence e
good mapority favored It.
Next came the salaries and appropri
ations ordinance o nits second read
Ing. AH went along smoothly until
the otectricfcin'i salary avaa reached,
the ordinance saying that be shall ate)
act as magazine keeper. Tho nlectrl-
dan’s salary In 1*94 wus <1.200. but the
now ordinance cuts It to <900 and adds
<300 tar magazine keepnr. virtually
keeping the salary the same, but In
creasing the duties. Alderman Van
objected to Um* consideration of these
two offlee™. He Writ a second in Al
derman Jufean and finally got the Iwo
offices separated and the elocDloian'a
salary resumed to $1,200. He also ob
jected to the chief of poHce being In
spector of weights and -measure* in ad
dition to his other duties, on tlte ground
that the council 1)1,1 no authority to
stipulate the duties ot the clilof. He
also moved to reduce Che salary ot
the chief of the fire department to
<1.600, but on motion of Alderman Pea
vy, seconded by Alderman Willingham,
It was -made <1,100.
Alderman Pen-vy—I Invo have no ob
jection to raising salaries, but I would
like to know whore the money was
coming fnwn.
Alderman Van—You have raised the
liquor license—Mint will pay It. ’Mm*
laughing 'In tin* roar of the audience.
Alderman Van wanted the board of
public works fix the pay of the street
bands, but could get no one to support
him.
When the physician's salary was
reached on the list Alderman Van
wanted it put -bac kto <1,500. He was
K laity urgent for the restoration of
