BRADFORD, Jan. 3O.-Yesterday morning Q party of citizens from Kinzua went into the woods to see well torpedoed. Forty quarts of nitro glycerine were put into a barrel to thaw. Steam having been turned the pressure of heat became so great that the ticklish stuff exploded, carrying ruin and havoc in it's track. The engine house was blown to splinters, and the engineer, Andrew Leasher, torn to pieces. J. O. Cushing, one of the spectators, wns killed by flying piece of timber. F. M. Blystone, the con- tractor, John Franklin and Peter Sweeney were seriously injured by flying fragments. Six men were standing in the derrick, where one of the group was killed outright. Leasher has wife and family in Venango. Gushing was postmaster at Kinzua and leaves large family

AS ne came up LO darGS score, the second
 best in the world before--565 miles and 165 and knowing what he was walking for, cheer
 ed him wildly. There were probably three thousand persons present and it seemed as if each person was cheering for two. Hughes, however, did not relax his dogged look. He was not caring anything just then about the second record, it was the first that he was after. He kept on in his
 walk-it was some time since he had quit
 running-and doggedly went the other mile
 Then each of the 5000 outdid all the cheer
 ing they had previously thought of and yelled
 until the gaslights fickered. Hughes did not
 seem to mind it any more than if he had not heard it. He walked one extra lap of one- eighth of a mile and went into his tent. He was broken down man and looked as if he might never get over it. He had done more walking, however, than anybody in the world in 142 hours, and he had earned $4, 200 since Monday morning. This was $3,2 POO as his share of the gate money and $1, 900 special prize offered by O'Leary to the winner if he should beat the best record.
 Howard had dropped out shortly before noon, with score of 515 miles, leaving but five men on the track during the afternoon and evening. These struggled along making 1 the best records possible, aiming their best to secure large share of the profits. When the walk had ended the score was Hughes 56s miles, Albert 55s, Vint 55O, Krohne 53O, Campana 425. The money will be distrib- | uted as follows: Hughes gets $3, 200; Al
 bert $2, 400; Vint $1,2OO; Krohne, $500. ! and Howard, $4OO.
 l All the pedestrians are doing well to-day except that they are little stiff in the legs. Hughes says if he had been pushed he could ! have covered 600 miles and that he intends to l do it in the next wald. He thinks he will enter ! for the O'Leary belt contest at Madison Square
 Garden, February 2s. Albert was out this
 morning. Hart, or Black Dan, who was present at the contest, said to-day that had the track not been hard and had smoking
 been prohibited all the contestants would
 have made better records. He says that il
 got to cover $50 miles The packer ot
 Howard in the race tonight sent Hughes g
 challenge from an unknown for the interna 1 tional belt. Albert is said to be the man.

Another Victim of Trichinae.

NEW YORK, Jan. 3O.-A certificate of death was received at the health board yesterday from Dr. Wiggins of the Charity Hospital, conveying notification of the death of Rob- ert King, weaver, aged fifty-fve, who had been received in the institution the 17th inst. in delirious condition. Doctors Wig gins, Merriam and Holmes, who were in at tendance, diagnosed his case and concluded the patient was suffering from combination of pleurisy and chronic meningitis. On his death on Wednesday his body was removed to the disseoting room for post-mortem ex- animation and minute black spots were dis covered on the muscles of the arms and shoulders. Under the microscope they proved to be parasites, which had penetrated into the body almost as far as the lungs, and the deceased was pronounced to be victim of trichinosis.

RoweII's Record Beaten-A Great Per-
 formanee by Hughes-SPlendid Scores
 by the Other Pedestrians.
 NEW YORK, Jan. 3O.-The walk for the OLeary belt closed last night, with the big gest feat accomplished that has ever sur prised and delighted the admirers of pedes- trianism. Hughes the 'slepper," who has been hitherto noted for repeated iascos in the line of walking, beat all previous records, scoring two miles more than was marked to the credit of Rowell. During the day the interest in the walk seemed to approach the old time craze for walking matches, and all day the hall was filled with restless, ami mated and excited throng. It was apparent early in the day that the "lepper" was to eclipse all previous pedestrian feats, and, though his condition was simply agonizing, he continued to roll up lap after lap and mile after mile until half-past nine, when he left the track and the greatest record in walking ever made was an accomplished fact. Hughes condition was not good His bron- chial trouble continued. His cold in his head was not alleviated. His knee was as bad as ever, and that was pretty bad. His foot was painful enough to break up an ordinary man. He was suffering untold agony with hernia That he was alive at all was legitimate food for surprise. That he should continue on the track and continue to go as well as he was going was simply amazing
 The last ten hours of the struggle, the places of the men being practically assured were devoid of the interest which always at taches to close race, but the public came to see itself as much as the show. There was the finest walking ever seen to be seen here, and there was the excitement of 8 finish to look forward to, and the crowd swelled visi- ply and rapidly all through the day. It was evident enough, as the afternoon went on, that Hughes was the only man on the track who was walking with any other object than to watch his own place in the ranks and to keep up the public interest. Hughes was walking to beat the record, and he looked as if he would have given half his share in the weeks profits if that record had been few miles less. He could not change it, however. All he could do was to beat it, and with indomitable will he struggled on, carrying his manifold infirmities with dull look of suffering on his face indeed but with no indication of any weakening. Hour after hour he walked and trotted, more slowly in- deed than he had done on previous days, but still making progress He had still, at noon, twenty miles behind the total he had to make, and it looked 8 long twenty miles to him, but he had ten hours to do it in, and he could afford to walk slowly. In fact he ac- complished his feat few seconds before six o'clock, his score for the afternoon being:

Attempt te Steal Hard E.rned Money.

Attempt t0 Steal Hard Earned Honey.
 NEW YORK, Jan 3O.-When the walk clos ed at the Rink Saturday night Dan. O'Leary placed the money on hand at the time, about $5,OO0, in the safe in the office of Charles E. Davies and Mir. Gottlieb agreed to sleep in the room Some time in the morning Davies awoke and saw 8 man moving about the apartment. He jumped off his bed and grap- pied with the intruder. A short struggle en- sued and Davies put the man out of the building after using him pretty roughly. It was not known how the man got into the room as the door had been barricaded. Be- tween and 10 o'clock as Davies was sitting alone in his office the same man walked in and saluted him in a friendly way. After a minute or so he drew revolver from his pocket and pointed it at Mir. Davies' head The latter was dazed for an instant and then with rare presence of mind he seized the man by the throat and snatched the revolver from his hand and pounded him on the head with it. O'Leary happened in at the moment and the man was thrown in the street. No body knows who he was and Davies supposed he came the second time to obtain revenge for the treatment he had received on his ear ly visit.
