BosToS, Dec. 1O.-Marsten & Wells fire
works factory on SWEET street was blown
up yesterday afternoon. Andrew Shultz,
an ls-year-old boy, was instantly killed,
and twenty others received injuries. The
first explosion occurred in the firecracker
factory, two-story structure on SWEET
street. The cause is not known. Luckily
most Of the thirty-five employees were at
dinner when the explosion occurred.
The explosion came without moments
warning, and hardly had the report died
away, when the other buildings caught
fire and blazed up in few seconds, ending
with an explosion which lifted the struc-
ture high into the air, leaving a trail Of
flaming sparks. The buildings, as they
exploded one after another, were thrown
high in the air and tho debris was scat
tered to a long distance on all sides.
The fire started in the cracker shop dur
ing the noon hour; how IL started is u
mystery. Employees who were in the build
ing say that the explosion came almost
Immediately after the fire was discovered,
and that the five boys and two men in the
building had scarcely time TO scramble
through the windows before the shock
came.
OF the twenty-six buildings comprising
the plant nineteen were destroyed. The
loss is total, insurance companies refusing
to take risks on so dangerous an estab-
lishment. The explosion was heard for
miles

LONDON, Dec l0-m commenting upon
President llarri-on~ message, The Post
notices with sutisfact ion on the absence OF
signs of hluster toward foreign nations,
and says that II the message meets the
ideas of the presidents party, Mr.. Blaines
chances have seriously diminished.
The Daily News says; The presidents
message leaves nothing To be desired
either in tone or in temper. Mr. Harrison
is less exasperating than Mr.. Blaine, and
consequently more statesmanlikc. He
would not speak So tenderly of reciprocity
II his protection policy was IA success.
VALPARAISO, Dec. 10 The substance OF
President IIarrson's statement of Chilian
affairs is n subject of universal comment.
IL is regarded by the Chilians as decidedly
menacing "A rupture between the two coun-
tries, as il j. not believed that the Chiiian
government will consent either to apology
or any material indemnity. The majority
I'm congress is known To bc opposed to any
concession, and the Chilian government
would find it difficult To carry the neces
sary suppoct for any humiliating meas
ures

arations, and that artillery of the latest
manufacture has been ordered from Ger

Many Things to he Considered Before

Canada Can Join the United states.
BROOKLYN, Dec. l0-Before the Union
League club of this city last evening Eras-
tus Wiman maintained that q political
union with Canada was at present unde-
sirable and impossible A commercial
union, however, was within easy grasp,
and this was absolutely essential TO pre-
pare the way should political alliance
ever be contemplated. At best annexation
would take from a quarter to half a CEN
tury, while reciprocity, with concurrent
legislation, could be bad at an early date.
The free admission of American manufac-
lures into British America, and a dis
elimination against the manufacturers of
Great Britain, if adopted by the parla-
mcnt of Canada. would be an indication of
good will toward the United States, the
greatest that could be demanded 1t would
also imply a fiscal freedom from inter
ference from abroad that would be a long
step toward practical independence; and a
market afforded for free raw material in
the United States would result in pros
perity for Canada enormously beneficial
TO the United States.
