of the wOrkmen-The SHOCK Felt
Forty Miles on.

TOLEDO, Ohio, Nov. IA large lot OF
powder stored in q shed on Delaware creek,
four miles from this city, exploded at 10
o'clock Thursday morning. The report was
heard for forty miles in every direction,
The windows of houses in that
quarter of the city were generally
broken. At the Broadway school three
miles from the scene, the windows were
smashed and some of the scholars slatos
holding the windows up were broken Sew
eral persons working in the shed were seen
running and shouting, and everybody near
took this Us a..signal of danger and fed a
terrific explosion followed, but all were fGr
enough away to escape except an old man
called Fred, whos had charge of the
shed. He had got some distance away
but was thrown down and his hair scorchcd
by the explosion A spring wagon contain
ing Il man and three women in the road 100
yards away was blown into the ditch, but
no one was seriously injured Fences were
loveled in the vicinity and limbs blown from
trees
The ruines ignited from the explosion, and
men are now fighting the fire to keep it
from reaching "a large lot of petroleum
stored near.
LATER.-The explosion was in the giant
powder factory of A. J. & o. B. Rummel,
consisting of the packing-house, magazine
and stock-honse, situated on the crown of u
little knoll on Delaware creek, surrounded
by a dense thicket of trees The workmen
in the packing house were thawing out tut
containing twenty-six pounds Of nitro glyc-
crime and set it too near the fire The
tub caught fire The men threw it outside
and gave the alarm An instant after the
tub exploded, the conclusion setting off the
magazine containing ten tons of giant
powder known to tho trade as great west
ern powder" The stock building was thrown
down, imprisoning the men working therein,
and caught fire. All extricated themselves
speedily, with no greater injury than bruises,
except Rhinehold Gault, who was badly
burned all over the body. Getting out of the
blazing ruins he dashed into tho creek to ex-
tinguish his burning clothing, and was taken
to a house near by and medical aid sum
moned. He will probably recover.
A house near by owned by a man named
Bench, was badly shattered, and another
belonging to Mr. Wilson, was entirely
wrecked.
There were 81, 900 pounds of dynamite and
5000 pounds of gunpowder stored in thu
magazine. Rummel & Co. lose about $40,
900. No insurance. The damage through
out the city will foot up many hundreds OF
dollars, though it is impossible at this time
to estimate it.

CLOSE ELECTIONS.

Sliding backward down the stairs of
time, the Chicago Inter Ocean has found
that close votes are nothing new in this
country. AS early as 1924, in the contest
between Adams and Jackson, there was
a difference of only 100 in Maryland's
vote on these two candidates, in favor of
Adams, but it did not occur to ''Old Hick-
ory"to incite his minority to sack the
cities and tear up the soil of Maryland.
-Four years later that state voted on these
same candidates, and though there were
nearly $4,000 additional votes divided be.
tween them, Adams still led by 2,181 In
1882, when Clay and jackson were the
rival candidates, Delaware gave Clay but
1886 more than Jackson got, and in
Maryland there was an actual difference
of only four votes, Clay getting 10, 100,
and Jackson, 19,159. This is Iealthful
precedent for Mr.. Hendricks to look to,
remembering that his party prototype
did not therefore demand the execution
of the Maryland tribunal. The vote in
New Jersay that year stood, Clay, 3d.
392; jackson, 1856, a trifling, yet al
important difference of 464 votes. In
1906, when Harrison and Van Buren,
were the petitioners of suffrage, there
was difference in Connecticut of only
