The English" sorkingmen' connected with
the underground railways of London, have
announced in mass meeting that, if this
country will not stop the manufacture OF
dynamite machines, they will resort to
"reprisals." This means they will COM
mence the exploding of bombs in this
country. If they should, and should limit
themselves to doing just the same amount
of damage and no more than has been
lone by the dynamite oonspirators in
London, the people of this country would
not be greatly disturbed. So far, despite
all the uproar in London, there has not
been single instance in which there has
been an explosion traced to dynamite, or
to any dynamite oonspirstors. There has
not been a single life lost, or any damage
done of any considerable dimensions. The
real havoc from the dynamite has been in
the minds Of the English people. The
American masses are much more cowardly
tran they have the credit of being if they
should be at all alarmed at dynamite
"reprisals," providing they should be no
more obstructive than have sheen thus
far, the dynamite explosions in Great
Britain.

This is especially true in the case of

The English are the hereditary enemies

Barelere Abread.

At about 30 this morning the attention of
Officers Gallagher and Rice was attracted as
they stood on the corner Of Washington and
Plymouth avenues b7 terrific explosion at the
corner OF Plymouth avenue and First treet. At
the same instant they saw fire flash from the
small ofSce building of J. A. Clark, lumber
merchant, located as above. They ran quickly
to the scene, and found the Office, a ose-story
wooden structure about IA by - feet, in a total
wreck. Pieces Of the buii ding were blown out
upon the sidewalk and tbs joista holding
tho ceiling had been leosened so
that they had fallen and partition dividing the
building into two roons was taken down, while
the side of the building next the street was
blown out. An investigation developed the
fact tina, bHrs lars had bored the Office safe and
put into it an over charge of powder blowing
tho safe, which was small, cheap affair, into
atoms. tits pretty certain that nothing was
stolen, as it would have been impossible to find
anything ia the heap OF debris, the chimney, tho
stove, furniture and the building all piled up N
mass. The officers state that they
saw no one run FROM the building, and at first
the opinion prevailed that the burglars were
burned in the ruins, bat search revealed moth
ing. Hezce it is concluded that they were in
the rear when the explosion occurred, and then
took sudden fight. Mr. Davis states that SO
far as he knows ne money was left in tne safe.
