George Hurlburt and Michael Quinn
were killed by an explosion in the Croton
aqueduct in New York city. For several
hundred feet the aqueduct at the point of
the accident was an open cut terminating
at each end in q tunnel. The cut had been
finished at the south end, and about $50
feet of the tunnel has been completed,
while the heading had been extended 100
feet further. At about IL o'clock of the
morning of the accident fifteen men were
working in the heading, while about ten
were working in the bench hundred feet
nearer the mouth of the tunnel. Without
any warning there occurred the terrific e1-
plOsiOn. Every light in the tunnel was put
out by the conclusion. The men in the
tunnel were momentarily stunned, hut
were soon aroused by the cries Of wounded
and dying men coming through the smoke
and darkness. Quickly relighting their
lampe they hurried back to the bench.
Michael Quinn lay dead under pile of
rocks. George Hurlbert had been thrown
ten feet, and his drill, weighing perhaps 800
pounds, lsy across his chest. His face, head
and upper part of his body were much in
iured. He was still alive. Joseph Fesjua
lay bruisd beneath pile of rocks, with his
legs badly injured, and parts of his flesh
slown away. James Quinn, who was sit
ting almost over the place of explosion, had
been blown to the top of the heading, but
he came down on his feet on the bench
without any injury whatever. Milton
Smith who was climbing into the heading
was not hurt The rest Of the men were all
lying about under piles Of rock or timbsrs,
all more or less seriously hurt. The injur-
ed were removed to the neighboring shan
ties and doctors were soon rendering every
aid in their power.

The New York Herald q few days ago

which gives an account of the kidnapping
of Edward Santa Rosa, q youth of 16 years,
from New Orleans. Rosa relates a pitiful
story, which if true, would call for full
investigation by cur government. Rosa
states that last September at New Orleans,
he was enticed on board the vessel, the
captain of which offered to take him to
Key West. While he was talking with the
sixty.six others who had been entrapped
on board, were carried to Puerto, Guate-
mala, by the steamer Ella knight. He ar
rived at Puerto, in Guatemala, about sun
down of Wednesday, October 8, after q
voyage of little over six days.
Owing to eating poor food drinking
brackish water, nearly all the party were
sick, and were for days unable to get on
deck. Altogether the passage was a very
disagreeable one. The vessel anchored in
open hsroor about . quarter of q mile from
shore. When Jim. O'Donald. of Glasgow,
Scotland, the man who entrapped Rosa at
New Orleans, along with the captain and
mate, went ashore, whit re Rosa heard him
