DYNAMITE IN DENVER.
Cars Wrecked in the Rio
Grande Yards.
The Explosion Intended to Do
Up a Passenger Train.
An Unknown Man Drowned
Near Pueblo.
Denver Dynamite Devils.

DENVER, July l6.-This forenoon, rs a
passenger train was being made up in the
Denver & Rio Grande yards. an empty
chair car ran over a package of dynamite,
which exploded with great force, wreck
ing the car and slightly injuring the
s%witchman. 1t is believed that the dyna.
mite was intended for the regular passen-
ger train due and to come in a few
minutes. The Denver & Rio Grande
officials say they believe it to be the work
of strikers.
Pieces Of iron from the wreck were
thrown three blocks, but fortunately did
no damage. The car which exploded the
dynamite was completely demolished,
wheels wrenched off and broken in a
dozen pieces The second and third
coaches in the train were blown from the
track and badly damaged. 1t is said that
the unexpected need of an extra coach
took the empty train over the track upon
which the explosive had been placed,
otherwise the regular train, containing a
large excursion party from st, Johns
Cathedral, would have been the first to
pass over the track.

PUEBLO, July 16.-An unknown man
was drowned in the Arkansas river about
5 o'clock last evening, six miles east of
here, at w. b. Ebbert's ranch. He at
tempted to ford the river on horseback.
Ebbert called to him, warning him of the
danger, but the roaring of the river makes
so much noise hat his voice could not be
heard, and the stranger kept on. The
horse missed his footing in the swift cur
rent and fell. The man lost his hold of
the saddle and then both were swept
under some snags. The horse got his
head above water and after a struggle
reached the bank and stood still, but its
rider was seen no more. 1t is a gray
horse with a Mexican brand on the hip.
Tied to the saddle was a handkerchief
containing two loavas of bread wrapped
in a Wheeling, CIV. Va newspaper.

A HEAVY LOSS.

CrOcker's Immense Wholesale sta
tionery and Printing Establish
ment I'm San Francisco Burned d
n Ground Yesterda,.
ESPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL
SAN Francisco, Oct. 8.-One of the
largest fires for many years past started
this morning shortly after 2 O'Clock in the
basement Of H. s. Crocker & Co.'s sta.
t%ionery and printing establishment on
Bush street, between Montgomery and
Sausome streets. Though the fire was dis
covered shortly after it started no fears
OF serious ~seque were entertained,
as il was believed the fire would easily aud
quickly be subdued. This, however, was
soon found to be q grievous error. The
| building was 80 constructed that access to
the point of danger was exceedingly diff
| cult, and for q considerable lime the flames
held unopposed sway in the center of the
building. 1t cut it's way rapidly upward
and in all directions. Every effort to
| check its ravages proved futile, and when
1t was finally said to be under control moth.
ing was left of the structure but the walls.
During the early part OF the battle with
the fire q number of fremen were in the
building doing effective work. On the
ground floor were a group of five men
working nobly against their constant and
relen tless foe. Suddenly and hardly with
out warning, and in less time than is taken
to tell the sad story the ceiling above them
creaked, cracked, wavered and broke, and
with o deafening noise fell upon and
buried them. The note Of alarm was

Burr was badly bruised, and otherwise
injured and had to pe carried home. John
Fay was found suffocated, but soon re-
vived. Martin Harmon was discovered,
and though he exchanged words with bic
resouers had to be left to his fate. Peter
Healey was not found, and it is almost
certain that both OF the latter are martyrs
to their duty.
Though the fire was chiefly confined to

was by water, which flooded all the base

seriously injured in this way are Sweetzer,
Sachs 4 Co., dealers in fancy goods;
Buckingham 4 Hect, boot and shoe man.
ufscturers, and F~riedlander & Co., dealers

The Baker City (Oregon) Sagebrush has
the following account OF the murder
OF two settlers on Bully Greek near the
mouth Of Cottonwood in Baker county:
Last Thursday night q settler at that
place, named Jackson. and his partner,
whose name we were unable to learn were
killed while asleep, and Mrs. Jackson was
shot In the head but. we learn, not danger
ously wounded. Jackson's partner was
sleeping in q hay stack, and was killed
with an axe. Tho stack was then fred and
the assassins proceeded TO the house where
the finishing touch was put upon their
iendish work. There were two}other per-
IONS on the premises, one in the house and
the other in the stable. neither OF whom
were molested. Mrs. Jackson saw two
men leaving the yard just after the shoot
ing but was unable to recognize them.
