terrific boiler explosion occurred Satur-
day afternoon at the steam sugar refinery of
Sterling 6 Ahrens, between O'Donnell and
Dugan's wharves, Baltimore. The boiler room
and kilnhouse on Dugan's wharf were COM
pletely wrecked, and fifteen feet of a steam
bakery adjoining on the north, from base to
ROOT, was blown down in fragments Sch.
Mary Alice laid abreast of the refinery, and
several laborers on board of her were serious
ly burnt. The schooner's upper rigging on
both masts, her blocks, &C., were carried away
by the explosion, her sails set on fire, and her
boat stove. Her deck was covered several feet
with the debris from the ruins, and a timber
eighteen feet long and six by four inches, was
driven through her deck and left standing up.
right. There were four new boilers of sixty
horse power each in the boiler room, and it is
supposed that two of them exploded. They
were put up about five weeks ago. One boiler
was driven inwards through an eighteen inch
wall and partly through a second wall. The
other boilers are completely covered in
the ruins. The windows and sashes of build

the explosion were shattered. Six bodies

The SHIPPING INTEREsTs.-The Boston
Advertisers Washington special says:
The committee of ways and means and the
committee on appropriations have agreed that
the special committee on shipping interests
shall have the floor of the House, as far as
they are concerned, as soon as the tariff bill
is out of the way; and unless Mr.. Banks
brings in the Cuban question, Mr.. Lynch will
then come forward with his bills. 1t is mo-
ticeable that since the report of his commit
tee was made, other committees are taking ac-
ton on matters therein treated. Thus the
committee of ways and means has disposed of
the question about tonnage duties to its own
and will endeavor to have it set
tied in the tariff bill. The committee on com.
merce in each House is also skirmishing with
the ship question, and the Senate post-ofice
even has managed to get hold Of
It in some way. 1t is evident enough there
fore that when the subject comes up for dis
cussion there will be lively time.

Though it is yet early in the season there
Is no lack Of speculation as to who will rep
resent Maine in the House of Representa-
tives Of the forty-second Congress. So far as
we are able to judge there will be little change
in the Maine delegation. In this d'strlc.'
which Mr.. Lynch has represented since 1904
or for three terms ending March AID, 1911,
there seems to be disposition on the part Oh
the friends of other aspirants to urge the St
lection of a new man. But as no opJeo'o-
is made to the present incumbent ou Wv
ground of unfitness or unfalthlulie,S' anu 40
he is acknowledged to be one OF the most ac'-
iva ond efficient members of the body to
vbicb he belongs, we do not regard it as
probable or even possible that there will be
successful effort to push him aside now, when
so many important Maine interests are pend
ing, merely because the friends of other able
and deserving men think that their locality
should take its turn in sending Represent
alive to Washington. We are not authorized
to speak for Mr.. Lynch or to urge his renomi-
nation, but having some acquaintance with
the state of feeling in the first district we
are strongly of the opinion that he will be
required by the people to retain his present
position. He has the confidence and respect
of his constituents to an unusual extent, and
in accordance with the practice during and
since the war in all parts of the country Of
keeping efficient men at Washington for a
long series of years on account of their great
er power to serve their constituents effective
ly, we have no doubt that he will be re-
elected in September.
In the second district we do not hear def
nitely of any opposition to Hon. S. r. Nor
ril, the present Representative. If however,
Hon. w. P. Frye, late Attorney General,
should be put forward by his friends as eau
didate, he would prove very formidable COM
petitor.
In the third district it is understood that
Mr.. Blaine is candidate for reelection. If
so, he will no doubt be successful, though
there are the best of reasons for supposing
that if he concludes to be candidate for
Senator also he will not be permitted to walk
unmolested over the Representative course.
In the fourth district we hear of no oppo-
sition to the reelection Of Hon. John A.
Peters, who not only represents the Penob-
scot valley in Congress but is the represent
alive joker of the country.
Hon. Eugene Hale will be renominated in
the fifth district without opposition from pres.
ent appearances. ~f
