A FATAL BOILER.

Four Men Killed and q Number Fatally
Injured by q Boiler Explosion.
BUTTE, Mont, Nov. 20.-At the old con-
contractor of the Boston (Mont.) CONSOLE
dated works at Meadville, Mont, yester-
day afternoon a boiler exploded killing
John M. Gillmans, engineer; w. O'Con-
nor, carpenter; Jacob Kramel. pipefitter;
Henry Winters, laborer, and fatally in
juring Richard Wing, a machinist; George
Hickman, a pipefitter, and John Eustis,
carpenter, and Foreman Hank Pickering.
One of the employees gave the following
particulars Of the accident: 81 was there
ten seconds before the explosion took
place. Hickman was on top of the boiler
adjusting the blow off valve and Edmunds
was on top of the ladder before the boiler.
The other men were scattered throughout
the building. The boiler that exploded was
one of the battery OF four and in three of
the boilers steam gauges indicated seven
ty-five pounds pressure. The other one
indicated ffty-fve pounds steam. The
steam was evidently turned into the boiler
that exploded from the others, thus giving
200 pounds additional pressure, when it
rent asunder, one half going forward and
the other backward, carrying death with
it" Hickman, who was on top..is least
hurt. His escape from death is considered
miraculous. The boiler was . new one
and considered safe, but could not stand
200 pounds pressure going into it at once.

MONTREAL, Can, Nov. 2L-It is reported
from Quebec that orthwest gale with

day. Anxiety is felt for the safety Of num-
Der of vessels which have started for the
Saugenay and the mouth Of the gulf. The
gulf shores are ice- bound. Fishermen
are suffering for food, and some OF them.
who were-cauyht in the snow, are badly
frozen. Three feet Of snow has fallen in
the last three days at Sault Ste. Marie
and the Thermometer touched six degrees
below last night Famers in Quebec and
Ontario have been caught unprepared by
the early cold snap, and their stock is
suffering severely. The weather in this
neighborhood is the coolest known here
in November for nearly q score OF years.
The glass registered eight degrees below
this morning. Last night the Allan Line
steamship Pomeranian caught fire here.
She IL covered with Ice from the freezing
of the water used in extinguishing the
flames. She will probably remain here
until spring.

Meeting of the Appropriations COMMITTEES

WASHINGTON, Nov 32-The members OF
the Appropriations Committee held their
first meeting yesterday preliminary TO the
assembling of the Fiftieth Congress in Sec
ond session. Although Chairman Randall
was able to drive to- the polls and cast his
vote two weeks aga, he does not deem it
wise to expose himself. to the sometimes
unwholesome atmosphere of the capital in
advance of the assembling of Congress, SD
the deliberations Of the seven gentlemen
present in the committee room were pre-
sided over by Representative j. D. Sayers,
fifth member on the roll. His colleagues
present were Messrs. Clements, Rice,
Ryan, Butterworth, McComas and Ander-
son. The committee had before them the
treasury estimates for the District OF CO.
lumbia, Fortifeations and Sundry Civil
bill submitted by courtesy in advance OF
the regular time. The first budget was
referred to special committee consisting
Of Messrs. Clements, Rice, McComas and
Anderson for report, and they will meet
to-day to begin their work. The sub COM
mittee in charge of the Fortifications hill
will probably get at 10 the last of the week,
and it is the expectation of the committee
no less than their desire that the District
and Forti feations bills will be ready to
submit to the House at the beginning of
the session The Sundry Civil bill is quite
voluminoHs and will require fully three
weeks for its consideration.

A FEARFUL FALL.

Death in q Low Chicago Grog shop Of .
Former supreme Judge q Utah Terri
tory.
CHICAGO, Nov. 21.-In q dingy grog
shop, SO South Desplaines street, a man
dropped dead early last evening. He APP
peared to be more than seventy years
old. Though dissipation had made his
countenance any thing but pleasant to
look upon, the massive frame and clear
cut features showed him to be q man OF
more than ordinary birth and breeding.
In his pockets the police found papers
which led to his identity. He
was w. w. Drummond- once the
Supreme Judge Of the Territory Of
Utah. The dead man was a Virginian by
birth, and in 1851 was appointed to the
highest judicial position in the Territory
OF Utah by President Pierce He was
then comparatively a young man, and,
although having an interesting family
fell in with a dis so1ute woman named
Pleasant Edgerton. This woman was the
cause of his ruin. and for the last sir
years he has been known as drunken
pauper, living in the low falcons on the
West Side.

A HEMP CANDIDATE.

Burn His Store.

A Clerk Tells of His Employers Scheme to
Burn His Store.
PITTSBURGH, Pa, Nov. 20.-Morris Kel-
Ter, clothing dealer, was arrested yes
terday on bench warrant on q charge of
attempting to defraud his creditors. The
suit was brought by Samuel Lewis & Co.,
of New York, who had furnished Keller
with goods. At the hearing P. J. keenan,,
his clerk, told a remarkable story of a
plot to burn the store for the 5000
insurance, which, if it had been
carried out, would have probably
resulted in the loss of several lives.
Keenan, stated that Keller bought
kerosene last Friday and ordered him
to sprinkle the store and a number of
cases. of cotton batting with it. He was
then to turn on the natural gas and apply
the match to the kerosene. Keller left for
Salem, O., and keenan, was ordered to
telegraph him after the building had been
burned. Instead of doing this keenan,
notified the agent Of Lewis & Son, after
which he autographed Keller that every
thing was all right. When Keller came
back he Was arrested for attempting to
defraud his creditors. Keenan, says if the
plot had been carried out the lives of four
persons living above the store would have
been sacrificed, as it would have been al
most impossible for them to escape. Kel-
Ter is in Jail
