WE HAVE have received communica-
ton from an attache of the Santa Fe sys.
tenn complaining of our editorial COM
ments upon the late accidents. 1t is
claimed that in throwing blame upon the
train dispatchers we made the wrong par
ties responsible. That is possible. We
do not pretend to be familiar with the
duties of all the railroad departments
but we naturally thought that the train
dispatchers we're the parties whose duty
it was to keep posted upon the where
abouts of trains on the roads. Perhaps,
after all, the policy of the Santa Fe man
ayers in Withholding all news of accidents
on their lines leads to much Of the mis-
apprehension that gains currency about
mishaps. They control their own wires,
and, consequently, when an accident oc-
ours, reports can only reach the press by
rumors that obtain at places where there
are other telegraph stations than their
own. If the company would change their
policy, and allow the papers to get spe-
cials over their wires when accidents
occur, facts would reach the public in a
better and more satisfactory shape than
they do now. There is no desire on the
part of newspaper men to throw unneces-
sary blame on any road but when serious
accidents occur they must get the news
the best way they can, and their editorial
comments will of course be based upon
the reports as they have received them.

CHICAGO, April 13.-Seversl hundred
employees of the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad, including engineers, firemeu.
swi'chmep, brakemen, conductors and
section bands, on the Chicago division,
were called into the Company's Of
fee to-day and asked by an Off
cial to sign certain papers giving
the company the right to receive certain
per centage of their wages to defray the
cost of insuring their employees against
loss by sickness, accident, etc., while in
the service. There has been much dissat-
isfaction with the workings of the scheme
for some time past, the men claiming
that they received, practically, no bene-
fit, and that the arrangement was very
one sided affair, resulting chiefly in a
substantial addition to the company's
exchequer. This feeling manifests
itself to-day in the unanimous refusal
of the men to sign the company's
papers. All those refusing were given
to understand that unless the papers
were eigned by Monday they would he
discharged. A mass meeting was held
tonight at South Chicago, to protest
against the company's action.

THERE is some comment about the Sc
lection of a site for the State Reform
School. The Commissioners have pro-
nounced in favor OF Whittier, although
there was a site with forty acres donated
within mile of the city limits, and the
city had agreed to give an ample supply
of water. There is in some quarters an
idea that the Commissioners were under
the impression that these forty acres were
to be sold to the State, and not donated.
1t would certainly seem as if this school,
under the circumstances, ought to have
been located in the immediate neighbor-
hood of Los Angeles. On the other hand,
the Commissioners have the absolute
right to use their judgment. Mr.. Lindley
has stood modestly in the back
ground, and they may have decided in
favor of Whittier with full knowledge
that the forty acres beyond Boyle
Heights were rendered as a donation.
While the action Of the Commissioners
may be criticized, and it will be in all
the rejected sites, we do not we'll see how
it can be changed. The Commissioner
who has interests at Whittier, Mr.. Her
vey Lindley, seems to have acted with
fine sense of propriety, reserving his own
vote and leaving the decision to the un-
biased judgment of his associates. Out
side of q site within or near the city
limits, Whittier is one of the most eligi-
BILE OF those offered to the Commits
sinners.

into the port rigging, go that the COM
pact mass of humanity could be used as
sails, and at the same time keep the
weight OF the vessel on the side next to
the storm. The novel experiment was
all that saved the Trenton from destruc
tion. The wind struck against the men
in the rigging and forced the vessel out
into the bay again. She remained there
only for short time, however, and
soon commenced to drift back against
the Olga, which was still standing off
from the reef and holding up against the
storm better than any other vessel in the
harbor had done. The Trenton came

Up--No Lives Lost.


Up-No Lives Lost.
BRocKvILLE, Ont, June l5.-The works
OF the Canada powder company, two miles
east Of here, were blown upat seven o'clock
yesterday morning. The explosion was ter
rife, killing number of horses and sheep
and smashing many plate glass windows in
this place. As luck happened, the workmen
had not yet reported for duty or there
would have been a loss of life. 1t is not
known what caused the explosion. Advices
from Malone and other points as far east as
Champlain, in New York, say that the re-
port of the explosion was distinctly heard
at those places. 1t seems that the mills
took fire at first and the employees vacated
the buildings fearing the explosion which
soon followed.
The explosion occurred in the powder
works of the Brockville CheE'icl and Su
perphosphate Company, about two miles
below town. The works, formerly known
as the Canada Powder Company, consisted
of one heavy stone building and three frame
structures. Not vestige Of these buildings
is left on the old site. Heavy masses of
stone and large timbers We're carried long
distances. The Grand Trunk railway has
had to send a gang of men to clear the
stones off the track mile away. The cause
of the explosion is unknown. Those who
saw the explosion say that it was terrific
sight. The loss on the plant and material
is about $1,000. The buildings were valued
at 81 200

Real Estate Dealer of Cedar Rapids, Ia,
Too Handy with the Pen.
CEDAR RAPIDS, Ia, June 15.-W. s. Rich
mond, prominent real estate dealer, is in
jail on charge of forging the name of one
Notterheise to note for $3.50. Mrs. Owing
ton, of Marion, alleges that out of $1,000 IN
trusted to Richmond $500 has appeared. O..
T. Richmond, grandfather of the defendant,
loaned 81, 300 of Mrs. Ovington's money to
Mr.. Breasted and this case came to Rich
mond for collection. Richmond claimed that
the account was settled when he gave Mrs.
Ovington $500 and mote for $479.50. Breasted
later declared the note forgery Another
81, 900 belonging to Mrs. Ovington Richmond
loaned to himself on a mortgage on almost
valueless land
1t also transpires that an uncle named
Minor, living in the east, holds some $4,000
worth of notes which are declared worth
less. 1t is said that during the past three
or four years Richmond has lost between
S500 600 and 900 in speculations on the
Chicago board, accounting for a considcra-
BILE slice of his appropriation of other peo-
ple's money. His real estate transactions
in Cedar Rapids were large and his pros
poets among the brightest that any young
man could enjoy.

brought in by private entrance. He was

commotion caused by his appearance his
eve swept the crowd with hurried look as

ton Then he took seat among his array
Of counsel.
Three o'clock was the time that had been
fixed by Judge Tuley for rendering the de-
cision, but that hour came and went by and
still his honor was absent. AS the minutes
went by Sullivan became perceptibly nerv-
Gus and his agitation was communicated to
the spectators. All sorts of rumors went
round the room concerning the delay, but
the hum of conversation stopped like a
clock, when at quarter of four the judge
made his appearance. Without any delay
he plunged into the case. Having explained
the petition and the law upon which it was
based, he proceeded to briefly review the
testimony taken before the coroner's Jury
and which had covered LOO pages of typo
written copy. He quoted copiously from
the evidence of the witnesses to whom Gro
min had said that Alexander Sullivan would
be the cause of his death, and that the latter
had instigated a conspiracy to Kill him.
None of this evidence, he said, would be adj
mitted in court of law. This excluded
thcre was practically 20 evidence againsc
him.
The evidence pointed to Sullivan as man
who desired revenge on Cronin, but it
pointed to no overt act. No impartial man
could make up his mind that any jury would
convict Sullivan on this evidence. The
mere fact that one party was an enemy of
the man killed was no proof that he was a
participant in the murder. He had, there
fore, come to the conclusion, and not with
out very considerable hesitation, that bail to
such an extent as to ensure his appearance
should an endictment be found, shonld be
accepted. Sullivan preserved his usual
cool and stolid demeanor when the conclu-
sion was announced and an attempt to ap-
plaud was suppressed by the bailiffs. There
was an argument between the States At
torney and Mr.. Trude as to the amount of
bail. The latter, who said Sullivan was
almost entirely without means, thought
s., 900 to $1,000 sufficient Finally $4,000
was agreed upon, the four gentlemen named
swore to the aggregate possession of over
half million of real estate, the bonds were
made out and signed, and Sullivan walked
out of the room free man.
The grand Jury spent several hours yes
terday in hearing the witnesses that testi
fed before the coroner, but little progress
was made Officer Dan Brown, who pre-
ferred the charges of treason against Gro
min, was on the stand five hours, but it is
understood that he did not vary much from
his previous testimony.

ABOUT BOOK-BINDING.
Tho Kind of Binding In Vogue when
Printing Was in Its Infancy.

Such a startling innovation was the
printers art that it was exercised at
first in the greatest secrecy; hence it
became incumbent upon the printer not
only to be his own type-founder and
inll-maker, but also his own binder,
and for while even his own publisher.
1t is proper therefore, that inquiry
should be made as to what kind of
bindings were in vogue when the first
printed book made its appearance.
There were the rich bindings wrought
by the gold and silversmiths, by means
of which the upper cover of book pre-
sented perfect incrustation OF prec-
ious stones. A modification of this
binding consisted of metal corner pieces,
central boss and heavy clasps, either
set with jewels or beautifully carved
or chased. Next came the silk or vel
vet covered book, ornamented either
with rich embroidery in gold or silver
thread, or else garnished with metal
clasps and gold or silver nails
etc. For cheaper bindings re-
course was had to oaken boards,
over Whlch SKINS were Stretcned, ana
at times rudely ornamented with
stamped designs. Frequently, however,
the boards were left quite uncovered,
and the metal bosses and corner pieces
were set upon the bare wood. As there
is extant copy of the Mazarin Bible
bound in leather-covered oaken boards,
upon which rude designs are stamped
the center and corners being orna-
mented with metal bosses, it is fair tc
assume that the earliest makers or
printed books selected this style Of
binding for their work. 1t had great
strength and durability, and called for
no large expenditure of money. Then,
again, il was the popular monastic
binding. and the printers were ex-
tremly anxious that the printed book,
both as to interior and exterior, should
resemble as closely as possible the
written book it was intended to dis
place. No sooner did the printed book
succeed in establishing its superiority
to the written one than there was at
once desire to give it a more elegant
and artistic covering. Gold and silver
mountings made their appearance. Es-
pecially was this the case with copies
OF the Scriptures, missals and other
books of devotion.-American Book
