THREE KILLED CHoKEDANLP
A Thrilling Experience in a PennsyIva-
mia Well.

PITTsBURG, Oct. 30.-At Kiefer & Stief-
cps tannery well is being dug to be used
as vat. This morning Christian Dick
son, an employe, went down to measure
the depth of water when he was overcome
by foul air. Ferdinand Schroeder and
Charles Schultz, who were working near
by heard his cries, and Schroeder de-
scended into the well to assist Dickson,
but he had no sooner reached the bottom
than the fatal choke damp rendered him
insensi5le. Schultz then followed, but he
was also overcome. Ropes were then pro-
cured and fastened around the bodies of
Solomon Bamberger and Rhinehart REM
sen, who were lowered into the death trap.
With difficulty they tied the insensible
men to the ropes and all were hauled up.
Dickson, Schroeder and Schultz were dead
and Bamberger and Remsen were uncon-
sciOus, but with the aid of restoratives
were soon revived and were able to go to
their homes. Dickson was single man
and the other two were married

LONDON, Oct 81, ?. A. M.-About 3
O'Clock last evening terrible explosion
occurred near Praed street underground
station on the Metropolitan Railway.
On the first alarm strong Gordon Of DO
lice was summoned to preserve order
to keep the way clear and convey the
wounded to the hospitals. The nassen.
gers who were on the train sav that
there was loud report like that OF a can
non, and then darkness. Glass was bro

cutting and wounding many. For awhile
CONFUSION reigned supreme. The train.
which was crowded, contained princi-
pally country visitors returning from the
fisheries exhibition. The train was tray
cling steadilyahead, though the conclusion
smashed nearly all the lamps in the
fraed street station and caused much
damage to the permanent way. When
the tram reached the next station, Edge
ware road, the first effort was made TO
rescue the wounded. Some were dread
1ully burned, but more were prostrated hy
the two rear cars, which are mere skele-
tons. All sorts of theories are advanced
as to the cause of the explosion, but the
general opinion of the railway officials
ana OF experts is that the disaster
was caused by some explosive
material which had been placed
probably in the rearmost carriage. 1t is
believed that about 40 persons were in
Jured, some of them dan rgerOusly.
Almost simultaneously with the Praed
street affair violent explosion occurred
on the underground railway between
Charlng Cross and Westminster stations.
The windows of the signaling stations in
the tunnel were shattered, and at Charing
Cross the glass roof of the station partly
collapsed. The report was like that of
artillery. The effects were like those of
the Praed street explosion. Carriage
lamps, windows, ETC., were smashed All
traffic was suspended for while. Though
both explosions are matters of the
greatest mystery, they are generally
thought to have been of Fenian origin.
The shocks of both explosions are de-
scribed by the officials as very similar To
the shock Of the explosion at the Local
Government Board offices in March last, in
which DIR. Gallagher was implicated. Ii
is stated that four machines similar to
rockets were found in the tunnel, near
Praed street station. Altogether six
carriages were shattered by the Praed
street explosion. Though only about
forty persons were admitted to the hos
pltals, many more were injured, who
were sent directly to their own homes.
