RESULT OF FEARFUL EXPLOSION
Five Buildings Totally Demolished By
Ignition of a Barrel of Gaso
line—Forty Is the List
of Maimed.
A terrific explosion in a block of
six buildings at Philadelphia Monday
night completely destroyed five of the
structures and caused the death of
from ten to twenty or more persons.
I Over two score of others were more
or less seriously injured. Some of
those taken to the hospital will die.
It is not known how many persons
were in the five buildings when the
explosion occurred, and the exact
number of dead probably will not bo
known for some time.
The buildings were occupied as fol
lows :
No. 1008. Housman’s pooi and bil
liard rooms.
No. 1010, Moses Rosenthal s second
hand clothing store, occupied by Ro
senthal. his wife anu five children.
No. 1012, William Jones, colored,
restaurant, occupied by by Jones and
about fifteen boarders.
No. 1014, George Mcl^emmy’s gro
cery store, occupied by McLcmmy,
clerk and servant girl.
No ’ 101(! - Qui S le >’' 8 grocery store,
ocrll P ied by Quigley, his wife, three
; children and his nnele.
j au<1 N o. 1018, Albert Mounten’s grocery
meat store, occupied by Mounten,
i brother, sister and clerk,
The explosion occurred about 9; 30
j j o'clock. happened What is not'known exploded and how it
so far, but it
! is believed to have been a barrel of
gasoline in one of the three groceries.
Almost every building in a radius of
two blocks ef the explosion had win
dow panes shattered and were other
wise damaged. Every building of the
opposite of Locust street was more,
or less wrecked, but none of them fell.
A terrible cry went up from the
ruins the moment the explosion occur
red. Women, children and men, occu
pants of the wrecked houses, could
be seen crawling from the debris,
while the agonizing cries of others
were heard in the wreckage. From all
the surrounding buildings injured peo
ple came running and fell into the
street, unconscious. To add to the
horror, fire broke out in the debris the
moment it settled to the ground, and
in less than five minutes the great pile
was burning fiercely from end to end.
A general alarm was turned in for
fire apparatus and ambulances, and in
the meantime the work of rescue was
voluntarily begun by those In the
neighborhood who were not injured.
Here and there a person was dragged
from the ruins before the fire could
reach the victims, several lives being
saved by this prompt work. When the
firemen reached the scene the flames
had made great headway and were Ig
niting the buildings across the street.
The fire, however, was soon under con
trol.
Digging For Victims.
The work of nigging away the ruins
was then begun in earnest. Near the
edge of the debris several colored men
were taken out and sent to the hospit
als. While the firemen and police
men were digging in the debris and
hauling away heavier timbers in sev
eral sections of the wreckage, cries
were heard coming from the cellar of
Mounten’s groeery store. Fifty men.
with rope and tackle, were immediate
ly put to work at that point, and pull
ed away the roofing and flooring,
which had fallen into a massed heap.
From the bottom of the pile, doubled
up, were taken a man and woman.
The man was able to speak, but the
woman was apparently dead.
While the work of rescue was going
on in the exploded block, hospital at
tendants and others made a search of
all the damaged houses on the oppo
site side of the street and almost a
score of persons were taken to various
hospitals from these places.

Strike Leaders Giving Long and La
borlccs Consideration to Propo
sition of the Steel Trust.
“Hope deferred maketh the heart
sick.” This was expressive of the feel
ings of the majority of Pittsburg, Pa.,
people Wednesday night outside of
the inner circle of the Amalgamated
association executive board who had
been considering the proposals for a
settlement of the steel strike for two
days without an agreement.
The second day cf the exeeutiva
board’s deliberations was notablo
the many rumors in circulation and for
the conspicuous dearth of results. Tha
absence of three of the principal mem
bers 0 f the board from the session
Wednesday gave rise to the story that
the members were divided in their
Ideas of the peare proposals ami that
in order to satisfy all Secretary Wil
liams had been sent to New York to
seek modifications at the hands of
Messrs. Morgan and Schwab, while As
sistant Secretary Tighe and Trustee
Morgan had received a commission to
visit Senator Hanna to secure his aid
in bringing about an amicable arrange
ment. Nothing tangible could be learn
ed concerning the supposed trips.
The condition of affairs Wednesday
night can be summed up in this para
graph:
The steel workers’ strike against tha
United States Steel Corporation is still
unsettled. The status of the contest
is unchanged; the men are fighting for
every advantage, while the companies
involved are strengthening their posi
tions as much as possible. The con
ference of the members of the general
executive board of the Amalgamated
association, which was expected to set
tle the trouble one way or the other,
adjourned at ti o’clock without accom
plishing its purpose.
The officials of the steel companies
who have been acting for the United
States Steel Corporation in this mat
Ler were apparently hopeful and light
hearted. The delays in the settlement
are fully understood by the Morgan
representatives, and while all main
tain the sternest silence regarding the
matter, they are not able to conceal
their feelings of contentment aud sat
isfaction over tho way things are go
ing. One of these officials remarked to
a friend Wednesday that if the strike
was not settled he would be mors than
surprised.
BUTCHERED IN BED.
Man and His Wife Drutally Murdered
With Ax While They Slept.
Mr. and Mrs. R. T. Taliaferro were
murdered Tuesday night in their home
near Carrollton, Miss., and their bodies
were horribly disfigured. The crime
was committed about 9 o’clock and
was discovered by a son of the victims
upon his return home from church.
Several negroes were arrested charg
ed with the crime. For awhile excite
ment ran high, but the negroes were
finally placed in jail.
The motive for the crime Is said to
be revenge for the killing of a negro
servar-t of the family, who was shot to
death several weeks ago for attempt
ing to annihilate the entire family by
placing poison in their food.
COLLECTOR SANFORD INDICTED.

JO ELIMINATE NEGRO
j
I
Was Principal Issue Before (he
Maryland State Convention.
NATIONAL AFFAIRS RELEGATFD
The Black Man Will Have No Politi
cal Showing If Democrats
Succeed In the Coming
Elections.
The Maryland democratic state eon
eent.on, which met In ltn.imore hri
day, declared that the purpose of the
party, if successful in the coming elec
don, Is to eliminate the negro front
politics in Maryland, if such a thug
be possible under the constitution of
the state. Upon this, the paramount
Issue of the campaign, will stand the
candidates nominated for state officers
and those In the various county and
district conventions as candidates for
places in the legislature of 1902, which
body will elect a United States senatyr
to succeed George L. Wellington. That
his successor, in the event of demo
cratic victory, will be Arthur P. Gor
man is settled beyond question, al
though no formal announcement of
his candidacy has as yet been made.
The convention nominated unani
mously for the offices of comptroller
and clerk of the court of appeals Dr.
Joshua W. Herring, of Carroll, and J.
Frank Turner, of Talbot, to succeed
themselves. This action, however,
was a foregone conclusion and the real
business of the convention was the
formulation and adoption of a plat
form upon which the d( mocrats could
go before the people of the state with
a reasonable show of winning.
The Anti-Neqro Plank.
The combined sagacity of all the
democratic leaders In the state was
called into requisition for this purpose,
and under the advice and guidance of
Mr. Gorman the following declaration
upon the chief poiuf In issue was
evolved.
“The democratic party represents
more than 40,000 majority of the
white people of Marylund. They, In
common with their brethren of othef
states Into which large masses of col
ored voters have been Injected into
the body politic, recognize that the
peace, good order, personal safety end
proper development of our material In
terests depend upon tne control of the
commonwealth by Its intelligent white
residents. Without the aid of the GO
000 colored voters, the republican par
ty in Maryland would be a hopeless
minority.
“We, therefore, without hesitation,
proclaim that the success of the dem
ocracy will mean that, while we shall
deal with perfect fairness in securing
all the benefits of good government
and full and free opportunities for edu
cation to all classes, such action must
be taken as to prevent the control of
the state government from passing
into the hands of those who have nei
ther the abiitty nor the interest to
manage public affairs wisely and well.”
The other planks In the platform
reaffirm the devotion of the party to
the principles enunciated by Thomas
Jefferson; assert that democratic con
trol is necessary to the welfare of the
state; commend the administration of
John Walter Smlm as governor; de
clare the course o! the governor In call
ing a special session of the legislature
and the action of that body in passing
laws to limit the exercise of the right
of franchise to those who are able to
read and write to he patriotic in the
extreme; denounce the federal author
ities for fraud and irregularities in the
late federal census; commend the
state authorities for the manner in
which a recount of the people was
made, and pledge the part to the adop
tion of such laws as will make the pri
mary elections as fair as those held
under the general election law.

A special from Brunswick, Ga., says:
The Brunswick and Birmingham rail
road was connected with the Seaboard
Air Line Friday afternoon and the
event was the occasion of general
handshaking and all round good feel
ing.

deathclaimsqerman empress
The Mother cf Emperor William and
Sister of King Edward Dies
Suddenly at Cronberg.
The Dowager Empress Frederick, of
G ermany, died at (j: 15 p. nt. Monday
at Cronberg. Her demise was sorne
* hat ™ AAe *-, At 4
elans reported no change in her con
dition. Emperor William and her maj
esty’s other children and the Empress
Augusta Victoria were In the sick
room most of the day. They were nil
around the bedside when the dowager
empress passed away, quietly. The
flag on the castle was immediately
half masted. Two hours later Emper
or William conducted the members of
(| lp dogawer empress’ household into
the death chamber and led them, one
by one, past the bedside to take a last
farewell of their mistress,
It Is said the cause of death was
dropsy accompanying the cancer. The
remarkable vitality of the dowager
empress astonished her physicians,
She retained consciousness to (tie end.
A premature statement that tho
dowager empress was dead was given
out officially al Hamburg castle short
ly after noon. Count Marshal llaupt.
who gave out the inaccurate an
nouncement, lias been summoned to
Cronberg. Tito false news was tele
graphed widely, and many German
cities displayed signs of mourning.
The dowager empress knew her days
were few. Site said farewell to most
of her servants. It is understood that
she had arranged for the future of
nearly every one of them. She had ex
pressed a desire that not tnueh should
lie known by the public concerning her
disease, lest some should lie saddened
by the knowledge of her sufferings.
There was tnueh reluctance In sum
moning King Edward, as it was not
desired that he should have a long
wait.
Suffered Without Complaint.
The Berlin papers assert that tho
dowager empress long ago adopted
her husband's motto, “Learn to suffer
without complaining.” She recently
ordered that the public should lie ex
cluded from the grounds of Frled
rlcliof, saying:
"The world shall not learn what I
nm suffering; 1 will not lie pilled In my
misfortune."
The announcement of the dealh of
Dowager Empress Frederick was pub
lished too late for comment 111 the
evening papers, with the exception of
The Freisslnnlge Zeitiing, which re
calls her heroic hearing during her
husband's last days, “when she silently
endured the heartless allusions of the
chauvinistic German press.” This
Journal also praises her “dignified self
effaeemeiit" since the death of Freder
ick the Noble.
The News In London.
The news of the death of the Dowa
ger Empress spread slowly in London.
The Associated Cress gave Bucking
ham palace. Mvrlborough house and
the Mansion house the first Informa
tion that her majesty was passing
away, as all members of the royal
family and many ol the officials were
out of town for flic holidays.
President McKinley Informed.
A dispatch was received at the state
department at, a late hour Monday
night from Ambassador White an
nouncing tile death of the dowager em
press of Germany. The dispatch whs
sent to the president at Canton.
