A STRONG petition, signed by large
majority of the tax payers and citizens Of
Santa Fe, was presented to the board OF
county commissioners at their last session
The prayer of the petition was that the
streets might be lighted duringthe present
year, but as the honest tax payers OF this
county seem to have no rights that any
official need or care to respect, the petition
was pigeon holed. Selah.

TEN TONS OF POWDER.
E;pe,s Powder Works in Ohio Blown up
and Burned.


t A Cincinnati, O., dispatch OF the l OF,
saws: A terrific explosion occurreu i iuu

On the Little Miami Railroad, twenty
nine miles east of this city. Ten or more
persons were killed and twenty or thirty

ployes of the company, were kllleu;
The Kings Powder Company and the
Peters cartridge factory have works
on both sides of the river along the
railroad. The explosion occurred on
the south side, and the destruction was
enormous. There are many cottages
close to the wreck, occupied by work
men. These were shattered by the eX-
nlosion. and their inmates injured.
Twelve or fifteen girls at work IN the
cartridge factory were crippled by the
explosion. The railway stations and the
freight house belonging to the Little
Miami Railroad, together with all the
adjacent buildings, were set on fire and
consumed, as was the Peters cartridge
factory. The havoc wrought by the
explosion of these sixteen tons OF pow
der is dreadful. The track and ties OF
the railroad are fairly torn out OF the
hnl 11ln
ground.
AS soon as the news reached this city,
relief train was dispatched to the
scene of the disaster, with Supt. Peters
and a large party of surgeons on board.
AS most of the girls who were injured
| live at Morrow and South Lebanon it is
most probable that they will be taken to
their homes in those places. Peters
cartridge factory was a large building,
and many employees were at work at the
time that the explosion occurred.
Advices from the scene of the explos-
ion at midnight confirm the first
reports of destruction of prop
erty and loss of life. Every
thing combustible in the vicinity is
burning, and it is impossible to obtain
particulars. There were three families
living in little cottages near the place OF
the explosion, ana SIX hours QlllSent
search failed to find any trace of them.
Eight or ten girls in the cartridge fac
tory saved themselves from the flames
by catching hold of a rope that hung
from the building to the ground and
sliding down. At midnight the smoke
was sitting. The people are dazed, and
too busy fighting the flames to give the
names of the dead and wounded. The
force of the explosion was felt at Mar
tinsville, Ind, where people thought it
was a shock of earthquake

Captured the Deserters.

Advices from Honolulu state there
has been wholesale assertions from the
United States steamer Charleston. Ma
tives were hired to recapture the sailors,
and all but eight were retaken. The
sailors charged that the discipline was
below decks the entire time when not
needed on deck, and were not permitted
to use the library presented to them by
the citizens of San Francisco. A man
who went with the ship as electrician,
and was reduced in rank to assistant ma
chinist, seems to have been the ring
leader of the deserters.

An Interesting Pair.

The scene is described as most dram
matte when Michel Eyraud and Ga
brielle Bompard were brought face to
face in the apartment in the Rue Troy y
son Ducoudroy, Paris, where poor Goutte
was murdered Eyraud calmly eyed his
former mistress, and carefully described
the strangling of the notary, relating to
the minutest detail the part each pllayed
in the tragedy. He was remarkably
cool. Gabrielle became greatly excited,
contradicted at various points his state,
ments, and declared that his story OF
the murder was full of falsehood. Asto
the main features of the murder, how
ever, both confessed their mutual guilt,
but each threw the blame on the other.

DIVORCES FROM CHICAGO.
A Lawyer Arrested for Furnishing Them
Bogus,

George r. Sims, the Chicago lawyer
who gained notorety during the alleged
Twenty-fourth Ward election frauds
investigation, and Familiarity known
as Doc Sims, waived examina-
ton before United States Commissioner
Hoyne on the 18th, and was held in
bonds of $1,000 to the grand jury.
Sims advertised that he would procure
a divorce for anyone without the client
coming to Chicago. The case on
which prosecution is based is that of a
Pennsylvania woman. She got her de-
cree. 1t purports to be the decree of
a probate Judge in Ba Ba County,
Utah, regularly attested by the
clerk and bearing the great seal
of that court, together with further
authorization that the clerk had cor
rectIy transcribed the decree signed by
the judge. That judge says no such de-
cree was ever made in his court. 1t !
not at all unlikely that the court seal
was used to stamp the Sims document.

Revolyers and $40, 900 Stolen.

CHICAGO, H., July 1.-THE fact be-
came known to-day that the general Of

yers the robbers secured between SIS, 200
and $4,000, and made good their es.
cape.
The officials of the express company,
including G. B. Cooper, the manager,
say they know nothing whatever of the
robbery. They also refuse to give the
names of the clerks who were in the Of
fee at the time, and refuse to say
whether or not arrests have been made.
The facts of the robbery came into
the hands of the Pinkerton agency
about midnight Saturday, through a
Pinkerton patrolman, who was called
into the express office shortly after II
o'clock by one of the clerks. The
young man was in a dazed condition,
and told the Waterman that three men
with covered faces had entered the Of
fee. presented revolvers, and pressed
chloroformed handkerchiefs over the
faces of himself and partner, who was
still apparently under the influence of
the drug.
The Waterman, disregarulng the
wishes of the clerk, went for physi-
clan. His examination Of the saturated
handkerchiefs failed to reveal any trace
of chloroform, and a subsequent exami-
nation of them led to the some result

The Suit of Frederick Prentice for &c.
100000 Again Unsuccessful.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, July 15.-The at
tempt of Frederick Prentice, of New
York, to obtain land in the center of
Duluth valued at 100000 is again I'M
successful, Judges Nelson and Miller to-
day rendering a decision la favor OF the
defendants-th Northern Pacific Rail
way Company, the Duluth Street Rail
way Company and others. The case OF
Mr. Prentice rested entirely on the
proposition that the deed of 3. 7. Arm
strong and wife to him September II,
1856, is a valid, legal and absolute con-
veyance of any and all lands that Arm
strong was entitled to under the govern
ment treaty with Chief Buffalo III 1854,
who was by the terms of said treaty to
make and designatea selection Of tract
of land a mile square; that this land
was conveyed to Prentice by a deed
which describes the tract of land as
beginning at large rock at the head Of
st. LouisBay.
The court finds substantially that the
land described in the deed from Arm
strong to Prentice is not the same land
as that described IN the patent from
the United States to Armstrong. The
court also finds that Chief Buffalo in
tended to select land above and adioin-
ing Minnesota Point, but that he never
made any definite selection other than
the written paper signed by him at the
date of the treaty, but that when the
government and appointees came to Sc
Iect and define the land it was found
that an Indian trader by the name OF
NettletOn had settled upon part of 1t.
