Increase Of Poiies.--The ordinance passed by
the City Council on Monday evening, provides
for four additional day policemen. There
will probably be much difference of opinion
with regard 10 the measure, in view Of the fac,
that Richmond is almost entirely free from
rows and riots indeed, the Mayor himself was
not convinced of the necessity of SO large al
increase in the number of officers. There was
raueh argument in the Council, pro and eoa-
10 the debate we came 20 the conclusion that
more vigilance was desired by the advocates
OF the measure, 70 prevent the escape of ne

will probaby be selected from the night

THE EXPLOSION AT WILMINGTON, DEL
The explosion of Dupont's powder mills, near
Wilmington, Del, Friday, occurred about
ope-quarter to eleven O'Clock, A. NJ, while
the men in the lower or hagley yard were
employed in loading powder dust las it is
called when in certain condition) at the
press room, to be conveyed to one of the other
mills to go through another process. A one
horse cart stood opposite the press-room door,
partly loaded. The press-roorn ''blew up''
with a terrible crash; the composition-roo
Immediately followed; a minute or two later
the glazing groom, and then two roliing-miiis
simu ultaneously.
Seven men were killed, and another had his
arm broken. The wind was northwest, and
high at the time, which deadened the sound
so much in the immediate vicinity that the
men i'll the upper yard did not cease work on
the stant, and Mr.. Henry Dupont, VINO was
in the basement Of a cotton-mtil not far dis
tant did not think, from the light report, that
it was necessary to hurry 10 the yard To as
certain the damage, if any had been done
Two of the men Were blown into the brandy
wine, one into q tree, and the headless trunk
of another was blown to the opposite side OF
the creek. OF the others nothing could be AS
certained.
A strange feature in the explosion is that the
horse was not killed, although standing in
proximity to the press-room when 1T went OH.
The cart to which he was attached, and which
was partly loaded with powder dust, was
thrown about in fragments. The horse was
entirely stripped of his harness, his hair sing
ed or one eye put out and one leg broken. ana
vet after the smoke and dust cleared away, he
was found limping about the yard, exhibiting
all the signs OF painful agony which ne sui
fered He was knocked on the head and killed
to relieve him of his agonies. The names OF
the men killed were--Moran, Sweeney, Sehar,
Jacobs John Welsh Michael ODonnei ana T.

the ex uloson TO look after his interests, but
could learn nothing, ali the witnesses having
