It Rejoins the st. Paul and
Minneapolis Passenger
Association.
And a Passenger Basis Is at
Once Agreed to by
the Body.
A Cut in Canal and Lake
Rates too Late to Cut
Any Figure.
The Pennsylvania Road An
nounces a Cut in Iron and
Glassware Rates.

The st. Paul and Minneapolis pas
senger association held meeting yes
terday and accomplished thereby re-
suits that were more satisfactory than
expected. General Passenger Agent
Taylor of the 500 joined the associa-
ton. He is an important acquisition,
as the position of the road on Eastern
rates has caused some trouble. The
500 road has beef operating on a
through rate of $24. Previous to this
rate being put in, their rate was S2S.70.
The rate via Chicago lines is S30.7O.
The members of the association refused
to issue tariff schedule containing the
Soo's rate, and Mr.. Taylor withdrew.
The Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic is
another road that is not represented in
the association.
To the meeting yesterday Mr.. Taylor
was invited. He was present and a
compromise was effected on such a
basis that he has rejoined the associa-
tion. Since his withdrawal he has
issued an independent rate sheet. This
has caused considerable confusion
among Western lines, not only to them
but to the companies operating east OF
st. Paul. The basis on which he joins
the association is as follows: The
other members agree to recognize his
rate of S2S.70, first-class, and to publish
it in their joint schedule; the 500 agrees
to advance its rate from S24 to $2S.70
and to join with the other roads in main
tanning rates; the 500 reserves its right
to meet any rate, open or secret, that
may be made, without giving any notice
of its intention to do so.
AS soon as the legal notice can be
given. the rate will be advanced. and
the rate clerks will go to work at once
and figure ON the new quotations to
Eastern points. The st. Paul & Du-
luth and Eastern Minnesota are eX-
pected to do what they can to arrange
matters with the Duluth, South Shore
& Atlantic, with which they operate,
and which is not member of the assO-
ciation. 1t is hoped that it will join, as
by so doing the association would be
made strong enough to control all rates.
being composed of representatives of
every road running into the Twin
Cities. Great satisfaction is expressed
in railroad circles at Mr.. TaylOr's ac-
tion, and it is universally felt that the
association is materially strengthened
by his return to the fold,

PITTsBURG, Pa, Sept. pa fright
full accident happened at Carnegie's Ed
gar Thomson steel works at BraddOcks
tonight. Capt. w. K. Jones, general
manager of the immense steel works,
and number of wOrkmen were horri-
bly, and perhaps fatally burned. Ply
sicians attending Capt. Jones cannot
state tonight as to his chances for
recovery. Furnace &C." one of the
largest of the blast furnaces
gave way at the bottom, and tons of
molten metal, like water escaping from
a reservoir. ran out. The furnace had
not been working properly during the
day, and Capt. Jones called this evening
to see if he could not ascertain the
cause. he was working with number
of men near the base of the furnace
when the break occurred. In an in
slant flames of fire shot forth, and the
hot metal exploded and fell like sheets
of water. Tons of the molten metal
poured out of the furnace. and that any
person near the furnace escaped instant
death is regarded as almost an accident.
The list of the injured is:
CAPT. JONES, general manager, horribly
burned.
MICHAEL QUINN. aged twenty-five, SO
badly burned that his flesh peeled off with
his clothes. He can only live a few hours.
JOHN MOKAKE, badly burned about
body, but not fatally.
CAPT. NED QUINN, burned about arms
and chest: will recover.
PATRICK HUGHES.
MICHAEL CONNER.
JOHN NEEDEN.
MICHAEL KING. a Hungarian, was pres
ent when the seething mass poured out of
the furnace, and as he cannot be found, 1t is
feared he has been covered up.
The injured were brought to the
Homeopathic hospital in this city, where
everything is being done To relieve their
sufferings. About six carloads of molten
metal poured out of the break. The
terrible rush of the liquid steel knocked
Capt. Jones down into the pit. For
tunately he fell between two trucks, or
he would have been burned to death in
stantly. When removed from the pit
his clothing mad been entirely burned
from his body. Superintendent James
Gayley and his assistant, Michael Killen,
were standing near Capt. Jones at the
time, but both made their escape in
safety The loss to the company will
be quite heavy. The 5000 workmen at
at the Edgar TOmpson Steel Works,and
hundreds of people in Braddoek are
frantic with grief on account of the in
jurieS which Capt. Jones has received
Capt. Jones is well known throughout
the United States and Europe, where
ever iron and steel are manufactured.
He receives a salary of S25, 900 per year
and a per cent on the product
of the large mill, making his in
come almost $4,000 a year. 1t was he
who took 800 men to JOhnstown at. his
own expense couple of days after the
flood. and remained there couple Of
weeks directing the work of rescue. He
is perhaps sixty years of age. At mid
night Capt. Jones was resting easy. The
physicians say that he will recover and
that his face will not be disfgured. Two
of the others will die.

STOLE HIS OWN PROPERTY.
Peculiar Charge Against a Bust.
ness Man of Boston.

BosToN, Sept. 26.-Avery L. Rand,
formerly of the firm of Rand. Avery &
Co., printers, appeared in the East Bos-
ton district court this morning to answer
to charge of breaking and entering
the junk store of Edward L. Fitzgerald
and the larceny of printing plates valued
at $500. At the time of Rand, Avery &
Co.'s failure large number of plates used
in publishing were disposed of. Through
a series of transfers they came into
the possession of one James G. Jordan.
They all were stored in the vaults in
the cellar of Rand, Avery s Co.'s build
ing on Franklin street. Being notified
that a lease had Deen taken over his
head and that he must vacate within
twenty-four hours, Mr.. Jordan had the
plates sold by auction. From the stock
Mr. Fitzgerald purchased to the amount
of IS, 200. Among his purchases were
number of what is termed "dead"
plates. Others we're ''live" plates, or
those that could be used in publishing
salable work. These live plates, the
defendant claims, are his property, and
that Mr.. Jordan had no right to dispose
of them. The case rests on the QueS-
ton whether the plates are the property
of the defendant, and, if so, has he
right to break and enter mans prem
ises to secure his own property. The
case is unfinished.

tional association next July. was dis
cussed. An effort is being made to get
the meeting In st. Paul and good deal

made 1t was decided that the assOcia-
ton, so far as it was concerned, would
recommend the issue of special rate
of one fare plus 50 for the round trip,
and would endeavOr to induce the West
ern Passenger association to take the
matter up and recommend all the other
passenger associations throughout the
country to do the same. 1t was also re-
quested that all roads running into st.
Paul make cheap trip excursions to
points of interest in Minnesota. Dakota
and Wisconsin; also cheap lake excur-
sions. General Passenger Agent Fee,
of the Northern Pacific. was asked to
make a cheap rate for an excursion to

By the Lake Lines, but 1t Is Too
Late in the Season to Count.
The only change in the freight rate
situation yesterday was the cut in canal,
lake and rail rates by the lines operat-
ing in connection with the Lake Su-
perior Transit company and the North
ern Steamship company. The present
rate is 50 cents on first class, AZ on sec
ond, SO on third, % on fourth, 25 on
fifth, % on sixth. This rate went into
effect July Is. The new cut is as fol-
low: 30 cents on first class. 80 on Sec
ond, 2S on third, 25 on fourth, % on
fifth and 20 on sixth. The roads affected
by this are the st. Paul 81 Duluth.
Omaha. Eastern Minnesota and 500. 1t
is not thought that the new rate will
cut much of figure, as it is almost too
late in the season. The rates do not go
into effect until Sept. 30, after which
there is scarcely more than month of
navigation on the canals.

a murder in Minnesota yesterday was
received in this city last evening. De-
tails are wanting, but dispatches say
that Jacob Schrieber, son of John L.

Young man, about twenty-five

His uncle, the victim, was, until ten
years ago. a resident of Lehigh county,

him.
