Cold and Fog In London.

Intensely cold weather continues to prevail
throughout England, and 10 causing more or
less distress everywhere. Most of the lakes
and the water on the iowiands, where the
Thames overfows its banks, are covered with
good strong ice. Aside from the intense cold,
TO which Londoners are but in . small measure
accustomed. the city is covered, almost oblIt-
Grated, by a thick. choking fog. which makes
existence miserable. OF course, il is impossible
to see more than hands length ahead. and
the consequence 10 that all trafic on the river
has been suspended, greatly delaying the load
ing and unloading Of vessels, and otherwise
causing an interruption of the great trade
Of which the river is one of the main channels.

TREMENDOUS DYNAMITE EXPLOSION.

Eighteen Persons Killed and Thirty
Wounded on q French Vessel at Antwerp.
ANTWERP, Dec. 23.-Eighteen persons were
killed and thirty wounded by the accidental
explosion of dynamite on the French 'lugger"
or rwo-masted vessel, The Pilot, here today
The force Of the explosion was 80 great that
the whole neighborhood seemed to rock and
tremble. Every window within the sweep of
the conclusion was shattered. Doors were
blown in and crushed as if by battering rams.
People at considerable distance from the quay
where the ship blew up were swept of their
feet and hurled, bruised and bleeding, for
yards.
Fragments of the ship, intermi1ed with
human remains. are scattered here and there
about the scene Of the explosion. The horrors
Of the scene can hardly be described.

TODAY's FIGHT AT WATERFORD.
Significance OF the Struggle Between Red
mond and Davitt.

mono ana Dayftt.
DUBLIN Dec. 23.-This is the great day in
the battle for supremacy between the rival
factions Of the Irish parliamentary party. 1t
is conceded that the election which takes place
in Waterford today is the decisive struggle
in the Irish fight and upon it will depend the
future course of the factions. If Mr.. Michael
Davitt, the nominee of the McCarthyite Sec
ton, wins the fight it is believed his sue
cess will end the discussions which have
split the party since the developments OF the
OShes divorce case and that henceforth the
Irish members OF parliament viii work together
to secure homo rule for Ireland.
In the event of the victory Of Mr.. John E.
Redmond, the nominee Of the Parnoilites, there
is no doubt the struggle will be further con-
tinued, and the result will be still longer
postponement Of the realization of the hopes Of
the Irish people.

Der of voters were ready to cast their bailots
There was no disorder and everything passed
along quietly. There was no delay in the pro-
ceedings and tho voting is now proceeding

AN ADDRESS TO THE TAILORs.
Tho Secretary Of the Union Asks the Wash
inEton Men to Come In

The secretary Of the Tailors National Union,
J. B. Lennon Of New York city. was in WASH
ington Monday night on his way home from the
southern convention Of the federation at Biz
mingham. Ala. and addressed a gathering of
journeymen tailors at Faber's Hall on the
benefit to be found in his organization. His
hearers were nearly all Knights of Labor
Washington is one Of the few large cities in
which there is no branch Of the Journeyman
Tailors' Union. The local organization has
been for years ar assembly of the knights Of
LapIr.
Mr.. Lennon told the Washington tailors that
the tailors' union has raised the price of labor
in nearly every city it has entered, found en-
ployment for members and generally bettered
the condition of the craft. II the Washington
tailors do not soon change their organization
into branch Of the national union. said the
secretary, that body will send its organizers
here to form union, not to antagonize exist
ing bodies, but because the national union
wants the cooperation Of its craftsmen in this
city.

It the intention Of the New York aud New

construction Of the bridge over the Hudson at
once, and very likely the first earth will be
turned for the foundations before the LIST of
January. The War Department has accepted
the designs. Al submitted these designs we're
SO peculiar and unusual that very careful ex-
animation was entailed before the Secretary Of
War was able to approve of them. As the
Brooklyn bridge almost revolutionized bridge
building. showing that the possibilities Of .
suspension span were far greater than the en-
gineers up to the time of the construction Of
this bridge had believed possible. SO il 10 likely
that the Hudson river bridge will mark o further
step in advance of anything that has ever been
attempted in bridge construction.

Unexpected Demise of the Ex-Postmaster
General.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
ELKToS, Nd, Dec. 23.-John A. ]. Creswell,
| ex-Postmaster General. died here this morning.
Gen. Creswell died Of pneumonia.
The news of Gen. Creswell's death will be
read with great deal of regret in this city,
where he occupied a prominent position and
mirers. Soon after quitting the desk at the
| head Of the Post Office Department
| he became the president Of the Citi-
zens National Bank in this city,
he filled from 1875 till January. 1890, when he
was succeeded by Mr.. E. Kurtz Johnson, who
had secured a controlling interest in the bank.
Gen. Creswell was a man of marked ability
and was unusually popular with all with
whom he was at all familiar At the bank the
hrst news OF his death was received this after.
noon from The STAR Office. 1t caused genuine
sorrow among all those connected with that
institution.
Since severing his connection with the bank
Gen. Creswell had devoted himself to the prac-
tlce OF law. He had large and lucrative prac-
tlce and 1t was from this source that most of
his large wealth was derived. HIS work was
mainly with important cases before the Supreme
Court. During the winter he lived with
his wife at the Richmond, having leased his
handsome house at the corner of 18th and
streets to Senator Quay. He also owned
handsome summer home at Elkton, and it was
here that his death occurred. He was in this
city about three weeks ago and was planning to
come back for the winter at an early day.
Last spring he had the grip. This was sue
ceeded by rheumatism and later by pneumonia,
which left him in a very enfeebled condition.
When he was last here it was noticed that he
was very weak, bnt his complete recovery was
confidently looked for.
