DEATH CAME TO THEM IN AN INSTANT.
oyer a score of Men Buried Under
Tons of Rock.
Charges of Giant Powder Honey
Conbed the Ground,
Somebody Was Careless .and a Ter
rible Calamity Resulted.

SPOKANE FALLS. Wash, September T.
Last night there was an explosion and loss of
life in the Northern Pacific yard in this city
and as time goes on the horrors of the calamity
increase. At II p. m. the men engaged in
taking out the mangled victims were forced
to desist because among the rocks being
cleared away were five other blasts, which
might be exploded in the task of removing
the mass of debris that buried the victims.
Up to that hour eighteen bodies had been
take ont. Of these. rixteen were identified.
AS yet q men are unaccounted for and all
were possibly buried beneath the rock.
About 200 pounds of giant powder was in
the blast. The accident was caused by some
ones carelessness. The man. in charge of
the blast and his three assistants were blown
to atoms. 1t is the custom to prepare the
blasts, charge them at noon, and after the
men leave work and get to a place Of safety,
TO shoot them. In this case, it seems one
blast lhad been prepared and the foreman
had all finished work, were making ready to
go home. Either the rock was too hot from
the action of the drills, or else the tamping
exploded the second blast and that exploded
the first.
The men were working in cut levelling
OFF ground for new freight yards. A cliff of
rock on the side of the cut which was being
removed Is twenty feet hg. The blasts were
so arranged that the rock was thrown toward
the cut. About thirty men were under the
cliff when the blast exploded. A great mass
OF rock and erth was raised in the air and
pitched over into the cut, burying the men

An End to Tariff Speeches in the Up
per House of Congress.

WASHINGTON, September Gin the Sem
ate today a question as to the extension of
the time for the consideration of the tariff
bill was started by proposition for an even
ing session. After an interchange of views
on both sides Mr.. Aldrich withdrew the
proposition for an evening session and SUBJ
mitted another, extending the time for con
sideration of the tariff mill to and including
Monday, when discussion will be listened to
thirty minutes and sugar be taken up. The
officer, Mr.. ingalls,, asked whether the un-
derstanding was that on Tuesday voting

given to that understanding.

reads: "Fish, smoked, dried, salted, picked
fresh. frozen, packed in ice, or otherwise
prepared for preservation, not specially
enumerated or provided for in this act, one
half of one cent per pound"

from vessels.

was agreed to, making the sections applying
to the repairs of American vessels engaged
in foreign trade include trade between the

to 46 inclusive were, on the report of the f.
nance committee, struck hut They related

STUCK A STREE CAR.
Cleveland People Injured at a Rail-
road Crossing.

CLEVELAND. Ohio, September GA
frightful accident occurred at Wilson cross
ing on the New York, Chicago 6 st. Louis
railroad tonight by which at least dozen
persons were terribly injured, some fatally.
The crossing is on steep grade down which
runs the electric street railroad car. An
electric motor, drawing one car, was ap-
preaching from the south and the road was
apparently clear. Just as the motor had
crossed the railroad track, locomotive run
ming about 20 miles an hour dashed out from
behind freight train. The pilot of the
engine struck the electric train bet ween the
motor and the car, tearing them apart and
hurting one to each side of the track. At
least a score of persons were on the trail car
and they were tumbled about in all direc-
tions, some being hurled dozen feet away.
The victims were taken from the wreck and
hurried away in ambulances to the hospitals.
All were SO badly injured that they had to
be carried from the wreck Two sisters,
Louise and Minnie Mock were in the car.
They both lay under the wreck. Minnie's
body was terribly cruhsed and she died soon
after. The other will live.
