An Attempt Made to Blow Up Cyrus
Field and Vanderbilt.
The Plot is Discovered By a Fortunat.
Accident.
Description of the Engine of Destruc-
ton.

New York, April ga dastardly
attempt was made to-day by some mis-
creants on the lives of VIM. II. Van
derbilt and Cyrus W. Field, by sending
them explosives through the mails.
Fortunately the dangerous character
of the packages was discovered en- route
to the post office station and SO the
probable loss of life prevented. The cir
cumstances of the case AS related by
Postmaster Pearson are as follows:
Two missives came into the postoffice
about 4:30 O'Clock in the afternoon.
One was posted in the Office and the
other was brought in by a collector a
few minutes afterwards. The last one
was addressed to VIM. H. Vanderbilt,
459 Fifth ave. The first one was ad-
dressed .'Cyrus W. Field, Lexington
ave. and 23d st." The packets were
placed in the mail bag along with other
mail for the uptown list, put in the
mail wagon and taken to the Third ave.
elevated railroad station at the head of
Chatham street and then deposited on
the front platform Of one Of the cars.
The train started up town and before
reaching the station at Nineth street
and Third ave. an explosion was heard
from the mail bag and fire and smoke
was observed to issue from it. When
the train was stopped at the station,
the burning bag was hastily transferred
to the platform as the railroad people
were afraid to transport it any further
Office station at Twenty-nin tn street
and Third avenue Superintendent
Mosher, who is in charge there
dispatched a messenger in haste for
Postmaster Pearson, and when that
official arrived, the half burned bag
and its contents were examined. The
package addressed to Field was plunged
into a bucket Of water for fear 1t might
also explode, and then thoroughly
soaked and was examined carefully. 1t
was found to consist Of a p~asteboard
box, covered with gaudy flowers and
pictures, and had a small drawer in it
from which depended a string, as Is
su .posed for the purpose of drawing ii
open and causing the explosion. In
side of the box was found a tin cannis-
ter containing about half a can of pow
der and a glass jar containing a white
powder and liquid, believed to be some
kind of an explosive, but what it was
none Of the postofice officials could
say. 1t will be sent to a chemist for
analysis.
On the packages were ten FIVE cent
stamps. 1t was Mr.. Vanderbilt's pack
age which exploded, probably caused by
the jolt of the cars when rounding the
curve Of the Bowery into Third ave-
nue.. The contents of the mail bags
were pretty well scorched by the explo-
sion. The postofice officials are max
ing vigorous efforts to trace the pack,
ages to the parties who sent them and
nc stone will be left unturned by Post
master Pearson.

A Terrible Tarantula.

Oliver c. Waddell, who recently re-
removed to this State from Texas,
settling along Stone River, in Stone
County, was bitten a few days ago by a
tarantula. He was on hunting expe-
dition in the mountains, and had
camped under large pine tree. Some
time during the night the insect
crawled in between the blankets which
enveloped him as he lay before the fire,
and bit him twice, once on the finger
and again on the arm near the elbow.
He was awakened by tingling sensa-
ton in that part of his body, and arous-
ing himself discovered the cause, and
succeeded in killing the tarantula. 1t
was as large as the hand of an ordinary
man. Waddelrs hand and arm began
to swell rapidly, and before he could
get to the nearest house, some four or
five miles away, the poison had spread
apparently to all parts of his body. 1t
was some time before he could obtain
medical skill, and when the physician
arrived Waddell was found to be be-
yond hope. He fingered some time,
however, dying in the afternoon. The
case is singular one. from the fact
that it proves that the tarantula is capa-
BILE of inllcting q death wound. Louis

An Unfaithful Shepherd.

Ii. F. Galen's sheep herder deserts
his camp and flock, leaving the sheep
among the wolves of the mountains for
two weeks without a shepherd, steals
his employer fine herd horse and sheep
dog and runs away. The news of this
infamous outrage reaches us to-day by
MIR. Galen. who comes to the city to
lind herder to take the place of the
wretch, who has no doubt Joined his
band of horse thieves. which is said to
extend from Utah to the Yellowstone
and the Northwest Territory. The horse
thief. who came in the guise of sheep
herder, is James Orton, and was hired
this fall by MIR. Galen at Bozeman. He
moved out to the range camp driving
with him 1900 sheep, well supplied with
a good horse, tent, rations, dog. bed
ding, etc.
1t appears from indications that Or
ton slept only one night at the camp,
and next day stole of, taking a valua-
Bile herd horse and equipments and a
valuable shepherd dog, The man had
left the camp about two weeks, and it
was not known until last Monday, when
Mr.. Galen had occasion to send out
some supplies and it was discovered
that the camp was abandoned and the
sheep scattered all over the hills. sur
rounded by ravenous wolves. Mr.. Galen
went at once to the range and succeed
ed in gathering some eight or nine
hundred of his flock and bringing them
to his ranch-the Willow Springs. 1t
is believed that there never was such a
wanton desertion practiced in Montana
before. and as it is the first instance of
such betrayal the guilty miscreant
should be punished by the first man
that could halt him with "stop thief"
Pass his name around and inspect care
fully any man riding fine bay horse
and having with him black and white

Fast Trains.

There seems to be a disposition
among the leading railroad officials to
foster the fast-running policy. This is
perhaps result of the formidable CON-
petition that now exists on the leading
trunk lines. A prominent official Of
one of the lines centering here. while
discussing the subject yesterday in q
gossipy way, gave it as his opinion
chat the Inauguration of the fast-run-
ming policy on the trunk lines would
doubtless be followed by many if not
all the leading roads of the country, all
of which are now in better shape, he
believes, to run trains at speed of fif-
ty miles per hour than they were fif-
teen years ago. While he deprecated
reckless railway travel and believed
that it should be discontinued by all
corporations, he believed that the
growth of engineering science during
late years had been SO far advanced
that increased speed nowadays was as
safe as it was practicable. He pointed
out where the American roads are now
capable of making as good time as that
of the best of the English schedules,
but frankly admitted that the schedule
average in this country is below the
English average. He holds the opin-
ion that, considering its great territory.
America should at least equal the En-
glish average, and thinks that present
Indications point to speedy Inaugural
tion Of the fast-running policy. - Chicago

Abject Condition OF Hawaiian Lab0rers.

Slavery said an intelligent young
machinist to Chronicle reporter yester-
day; why. slavery is too good name
for the labor system in the Hawaiian
Islands. l went to the islands two
years ago and worked on the planta-
tions," continued the machinist, and
from what have seen | quite agree
with the old negro who told me one
night at Naalehu. I've worked in
Louisiana in the worst days, and never
struck any slavery like what we have
on this plantation In the majority
OF places. according to the machinst's
description, each laborer is given a
room about SIX by eight feet to lodge
in. and this apartment has to answer
all the requirements of single or mar
ried life. In many cases the machinist
saw family of six white people living
in one small room, with shameless
disregard for all the decencies of life.
AT six o'clock TIE hands are escorted
to the field to work. The Overseer of
each gang is on his mettle to detect any
negligence or tardiness, knowing we'll
that the value of his services is
rated by the amount which he can de-
duct from the wages of the slaves. If
an unhappy bondman is seen Sinking
his work he is deprived of the wages for
that day. If he resent the imposition
he is dragged before the native officer
of the law, whOis hail fellow well met
with the planter, and is fined. The
system of fines is in fact the most adj
vantageouS to the tlinty-hearted over
seer, for by judiciously using the ma
chinery of the law he can keep the
bondman more securely in his power
The law prevents them from leaving the
service of the planter while they are in
debted to him, and the imposition of a
few heavy fines prolongs their slavery
for years.
The food given to the bondmen is not
so bad in quality as disgusting in the
manner in which it is cooked and served
The Cinnamon and the South Sea
Islanders do their own cooking. The
white slaves depend on Chinese cook,
who is the servant of the plantation,
and cndeavOrs to express through his
pots and pans the sinister disregard of
the overseer and the planter. The ma.
chinist described the food furnished
him and ether artisans at various plan
tations as disgusting: g 1t doesn't take
the poor fellows long to become demor-
allied, and then they are booked for
good. The sale of liquors is forbidden
on the islands. but the odd dollars the
poor slaves get soon go in drink. That's
how the Chinese grow rich by selling
rice brandy. The drink. and the slavery
make them all one-negroes, Cinnamon,
South Sea Islanders, Kanakas and
whites. Ii ever there was hell on
earth it's on some of these plantations
I've seen" San Frdncisco Chronicle.
