Disastrous Fire in AntMarn.

Dynamite exploded in the COrvileran car
fridge factory in Antwerp Belgium, killing
and injuring hundreds of persons and
doing much damage to property. Portions
OF the bOurse were struck by burning frag-
ments and set on fire, causing panic in the
building, which at the time was crowded
The cartridge factory situated behind
the docks upon which millions of cartridges
were being loaded. 1t was adjacent to the
petroleum stores and two large Russian De-
trOleum warehouses were set on fire and are
now burning.
The flames shoot up to an immense height
Amid the roar of the flames there was a CON
tinuOuR succession of loud reports, supposed
to he from the ignition and explosion of
packets OF cartridges
The latest estimate is that there are 300
dead and 900 injured. The explosions con-
tinue. At the American docks all the ships
have been saved owing to the favorable d.
rectiOn OF the wind. The stained windows of
the cathedral are smashed, and it is feared
that the steeple will collapse. The whole vi
entity is strewn with debris. The dock sheds
and hydraulic crane are greatly damaged

explosion. The scenes at the hospitals are

deputatiOn permanente for allowing work to
continue in the factory.
Many men and women were in the shop,
and they were actively engaged in breaking
up the old cartridges. There we're fully 25 :.
100000 of these in and about the premises
a part of them already broken up. The
flames covered two acres of ground and run
to an immense height. Amid the fierce roar
of the flames were heard from time to time
the loud reports of explosions. These ex
plosions were supposed to be OF rackages o.
cartridges stored in the building, which
seemed to remain intact until the hot ton

A Grave.digger Passes a Bad Night.

A few nights ago, says a Philadel-
phia paper, while a party OF young
men and women were walking under
the shade trees skirting the Lafayette
cemetery, they were startled by
number of wild cries issuing from the
center of that burying ground The
hour was about 9, and although
there we're twenty persons about,
none OF them at first could muster
enough courage to go in. Then some
of them, guided by the sound, made
their way between the graves to a
vault near the center of the cemete-
~. The vault top rises only a few
inches above the ground, and there
are u number of holes piercing the
sides, and the Investigators threw
themselves prone before this.
For time they could see nothing.
Then one of the watchers discovered
the outlines of a moving form, and
another piercing cry rent the air.
Satisfied now that the thing within
was ghost, the men sprang to their
feet and ran like mad for the streets.
The mystery was not explained I'M
| til officer Smith passed that way.
Just as he reached the vault in ques-
ton he noticed the white face of q
man who was lying on the floor in
side. Hepromptly broke in the door
and found James y. Clarke, one Of
the grave diggers, in half uncon-
sciOus condition, leaning against the
side of the vault. 1t was some min
utes before he could talk. Then he
said:
II came into the vault yesterday
afternoon to do some work. There
are seventeen bodies here. AS l en-

Legal Nerbiage.

The world has outrun the courts
and legal technicalities have out
lived their usefulness. The progress
of the people has been toward COM
nonsense methods in all things, and
the lawyers "whereases, "afOre-
saids," and parties OF the first part
must be relegated to oblivion. There
is a demand springing up for plain,
direct English. There is really no
sound reason why, to q man of Or
binary intelligence, legal documents
should he unintelligible. The techni-
cal verbiage employed is relic of
the age when that which was mys-
terious and could not be understood
was esteemed to be beyond the COM
prehension ofthe common herd. The
use of uncommon English in purely
business circles would not be endured.
Why, then, should the transfer of
piece of property be q process so
labyrinthine and so mysterious that
q man of sound sense cannot fathOm
it? 1t has been estimated that the
droppings of the letter in such
words as honour, labour, and the
like has added to the world each
year what is equivalent to the pro
ductive capacity of 500 able-bodied
men. What would we not gain if
from every legal paper and from ev-
cry legal suit there should he re-
moved that vast mass ofsuper1uity,
that antique verbiage, that bulk of
repetition and solemn senselessness
that now enwraps them as it's shell
enwraps the clam?-New Orleans

CHICAGO, Special: The extraordinary dead
lock over the craftsmanship Of the Western
States Passenger association came TO q eli
max to-day. When the general managers
OF the various railroads belonging to the
org aniEatiOn assembled the choice of W H.
Newman AZ temporary successor to Chair
man John N. Abbott was annulled by the
strenuous objections of General Manager St
John, of the Rock Island Then the PROPOSE
ton was made that Mr. Abbott should con-
ttnue as temporary chairman until such time
as his successor could be elected Had this
been done it would have given Mr.. Abbott an
opportunity to resign and turn over his office
in regular manner to whomsoever might
be chosen to fill the place. But it was not
done. There seemed to be determination
on the part of some of the members to
humiltate the ex-chairmBn to the last
possible degree, and tho proposition was
dogPediy voted down. IL was argued that
by the resolution just adopted Mr. Abbott
had ceased to have any connection whatever
with the Western States Passenger associa-
ton, and that the business before the meet
ing was the election of chairman The
balioting, which had already lasted over a
day, was then resumed. Mr.. Abbott's friends
stood by him through several ballots, but
after awhile the Rock Island was left prac-
ticaliy alone in his support The Rock ISL
and, however, remained steadfast, cffectu-
ally preventing the requisite unanimous
votes for any of the several other candidates

cided to abandon the attempt to elect a

duties of the Office were turned
over to Thomas Thompson, chief clerk
In Mr. Abbott's Office, who was elected sec

The Ten-DOlIar Baby,

NEW YORK, Special: Inspector Byrne's
chain of evidence against the Robert Ray
Hamilton conspirators is now complete, the
last link, in the shape of the Identification of
the $40 baby, having been welded to it o-day.
On tuesday he sent two detectives to At
lantic City vito the midwife who sold the
baby to the conspirators. She identified the
child on sight. pointing out to the
detectives the tell-tale ears Inspector
Byrnes showed her Mrs Hanilton's picture
and she instantly recognized ii as that OF her
customer. Joshua Mann told the inspector
to-day that during the last four or five years
he had lived with Mrs Hamilton as her hus-
band, aud during all time she was
never in the way of becoming
mother. He was with her con-
stantly after her marriage to Hamilton. He
says she showed him will her husband had
made in her favor 1t provided that in the
event of his death all his money, the family
jewelry and plate should go to her
and the child, and she was to DO
the custodian of the child till
she became of age The inspector says the
mother of the bogus Hamilton baby is, and
was, when the child was born, u married
woman moving in good society. Con-
elusive evidence that Hamilton has deserted
Mrs. Hamilton developed to-day 1t Is
now probable. to say the least, that the plot
was directed not only against Mr.. Hamilton's
happiness, but against his life as well, and
that the ultimate object of the harpies was to
induce him to make q will in favor of the
child and then get rid of him.
