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.

Tlie return of the long evenings, the ever increasing
l'"|MiIaiity of the jolly little supper at home, the scores
“cute” new ways to prepare good things in dainty
fashion—all suggest a little talk about chafing-dishes.
You would enjoy one immensely.
Aside from its practical value, 1 chafing-dish cookery
is a most delightful social accomplishment for men and
women.
The informality attending chafing-dish functions is
entirely delightful. Whether it he a home-folksv affair,
an alter-theater spread, a Sunday night supper, or what
nut, the chafing-dish party is always a pleasurable form
ot entertainment. Try it and see.
Look at our chafing-dishes and select one—cither for

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.

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.

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.
