again to-day. He says that the boilers Will
be frustrated, and their treason, as he calls
it, will recoil upon themselves. He saysf
instructions are to be disregarded and the
unit vote is to be broken, so be it, and that
Grant will gain much more by this than
Blaine. He says that in a number OF dele
cations instructed for Blaine there are
large majorities Of Grant men who will
vote for their ~favorite if the example is set
them Of disregarding instructions
The Bonanza King Interviewed.
New YORK, May Thames @. Flood,
vice-President of the Nevada Bank, of San
Francisco, who has just arrived in this
city, was found in his Office by a Herald
reporter yesterday. Flood was asked
whether his visit to the East possessed any
unusual significance, financial or other
wise, to which he replied NO | am here
merely for recI cation. My presence here
has very little, indeed, to do with business
of any kind"
Reporter--You perhaps saw a dispatch
from San Francisco setting forth that some
OF the employees of your house had been
dismissed 2
Flood-Yes I; that was quite correct.
Rep.-Was there any reasons other than
those given for reducing your clerical
force?
F.--A general falling off in business was
the only cause of their dismissal.
Rep.-That falling off in business has
been to a great extent due to the adoption
Of the new Constitution, has it not?
F.-To some extent it has. On the adop-
ton of the new Constitution many capital
lists became alarmed and left the State.
Those who remained saw stocks commence
to tumble, and concluded not to invest
until they saw how low stocks would fall. /
suppose this class are still waiting
Rep.-What do you think will be the
ultimate result of the adoption of the new
Constitution
F.-That l am not prepared to say. 1t
was passed with a hurrah, as the phrase
goes, and | believe that in the sober second
thought the people will correct themselves
generally and right these matters, and
make laws and customs and adapt them to
their wishes. l believe that when our
Legislature next meets the Objectionable
features of the new Constitution will be
remedied.
Rep.-Would you like to state your views
regarding the depression in mining stocks?
FL am not in mining stocks just now,
therefore can only give the very little in
formation now already in my possession.
Rep.-What do you think of the effort to
unseat Mayor Kalloch
FL would rather not express an opin-
ion on the municipal affairs OF San Fran
cisco, except that I believe that matters
will right themselves before long.
Flood intends remaining in New York
about six weeks. He said he had been al
most besieged with newspaper representa-
tives during the morning, but that in each
previous case he was obliged to decline
being interviewed.
Fatal Explosion at Deadwood.
DEADwooD, May 12.-The explosion Of
five boxes-nearly 100 pounds-of giant
powder occurred at the blacksmith shop
of the High Lode mine, at Central City,
this morning, instantly killing Samuel
Kimble, foreman of the mine, James Tru-
dell and Jonas Gilmore, employees. Their
bodies were most ~fearfully torn to pieces.
The country for an area OF q mile square
was strewn with fragments of flesh and
ruins of the shop. Kimble and Gilmore
hail from GAINESVILLE, Wisconsin, and Tru-
dell from Nicolet, Canada East, where he
leaves a wife and family. Kimble leaves a
wife and two children here. Gilmore was
unmarried. The bodies Of all three were
blown to atoms and beyond recognizance.
Pieces of flesh, bones, etc., were scattered
over a mile square, in all directions, the
largest piece found being a mans head.
The sight beggars description, being the
most horrible and sickening ever witnessed
in the Black Hills.
