LOUISVILLE SHAKEN.
Boiler Exploded; One Man Killed;
Others Injured; Loss $500, 900.

LOUISVILLE, KY, October 26.-By boiler
explosion here today. one man was killed,
several persons injured and nearly half
million dollars worth of property was de-
stroyed. William r. Adams, fireman at the
electric light plant of the Louisville Gas
Company, was throwing coal into the fur
mace when one Of the nest of seven boilers
let go. The shock In the vicinity was like
an earthquake. Adams received fatal inter-
nal Injuries. The shed In which the boilers
were located was demolished and pieces of
iron and timber and showers of red hot Goals
were thrown in every direction. A great
mass Of iron and burning Goals was thrown
across the narrow alley In the rear Of Kauff-
mann b Strauss big dry goods store, The
wall of the store was carried away and half
a dozen clerks and the bookkeeper were
caught in the wreckage. 1t Is believed that
all escaped alive. In a moment, apparently,
the whole building was In flames. The
weather has been very dry for two weeks
and the wreckage and goods burned like tin
der. The fire department was quickly at
work but the fire In the wrecked building
was beyond control. Attention was turned
to saving the Courier-J ournai building, two
doors north. and the Polytechnic Library
building, two numbers south. 1t was an
hour before the flames were under control.
At one time 1t seemed that the Courier
journal building would certainly be burned.
A few printers In the composing room left
and the reporters and editors gathered valua'
bles and prepared to escape. The Polytech.
mic building was saved but the contents suf'

BRUTAL OUTRAGE DONE.
So Says the Thundsre and Then
Makes Some Queer Comment.

LONDON, October 26-The Times, COM
menting upon the assault upon sailors Of the
United States man-of-war Baltimore at Val
paraiso. says thai, admitting the perfect ac-
curacy OF the account of the affair given by
Judge Foster, who has been conducting the
inquiry into the matter, 1t shows no justiica-
tion or excuse for retaliatory violence on the
part Of the Chilian mob. 1t is clear that a
brutal outrage was committed, and the WASH
ington government has good prima facie
case to demand satisfaction. But the time
has not yet come when such demand could
properly be pressed. If made now it would
be made in hot blood. and based upon incom-
plete information. 1t is not for great and
powerful nation like the United States to
deal In this high-haDded fashion with a weak
neighbor. II the United States insists it
Will be prudent for Chilli to yield. Some
reparation and indemnity must be given in
due course, for the outrage Is far too grave
to be suffered to pass without adequate
atonement.. Nor do we suppose Chill will
take any other view, whatever the result of
Mr.. Fosters inquiry, but an immediate and
President Harrison speak of, is not what a
self-respecting nation could either make or
submit to willingly. Arguing that Chill is
recovering from regime Of bad government
the attack on the Baltimore's sailors may be
regarded as an act in the same drama.
Americas strong, aggressive policy will
tend to enhance the difficulties. The govern
maintain law and order. So a sudden re-
solve before full inquiry is made looks
more like an 0utburst of temper than the
acts OF statesmen, careful either of their
own or the nations dignity, or what Is due to
weaker and equally sensitive government.

SANTIAGO DE CHILL. October 26-The
United States Government today, through
Minister Egan. formally demanded repara-
tion from the government.of Chilli for the
attack recently made in Valparaiso upon a
number Of seamen Of the U, S. s. Baltimore.
Acting upon instructions from Washington,
Mr.. Egan presented to tue Chilian Junta q
detailed statement OF the results Of the in
vestigatlon made by Captain Schley Of the
Baltimore and by Mr.. Egan himself. Mr..
Egan. in presenting the statement, expressed
In distinct terms. the feeling of great indig-
nation that the State Department at WASH
ington feels at the whole affair, and espe-
cially at the brutal conduct of the .police at
Valparaiso in joining with the mob In the
latter's attack upon the Baltimore's seamen
and 10 using their bayonets against the un.
armed Americans. Mr.. Egan particularly
called attention to the additional brutality
OF the police of Valparaiso In using horses
to drag the Americans to prison. After
making brief, but pointed, summary of the
1acts to which he was instructed to call at
tention, Minister Egan informed the repre-
sentatives OF the Junta that, 10 the name of

OF tue Chilian trouble, but the subject was
supposed to have been discussed at the
meeting In the White House. 1t is reported
tnat long cipher despatch has been sent to
munster Egan. In this despatch the Presi-
dent lnferms Mr.. Egan that the killing of
Mate Riggin and the wounding of his COM
rades Is regarded by the administration as a
national insult; an insult as great as IL one
OF our war vessels had been wantOnly fred
upon, or II the flag had been trampled under
foot; as the American uniform is as sacred
as the American flag, and the fact that the
uniform covered a common sailor does not
mitigate the gravity of the offence. Further
more, the PRESIDENT informs Mr.. Egan that
Onili must at once make complete aud ample
reparatlon. This reparation consists:
First-In the punishment of the men
known to have been concerned In the killing
and wounding.
Second--An ample money indemnity to the
families of the sailors.
Third-A full and complete apology from
the Government of Chilli to the GJyernment

NEW YORK, October 26 Inspector Byrues
has for some time past suspected that the
newly built fiat at No. 2O2 East 1lsth street
was the resort OF green goods gang. De.
tectlves have kept the house and the occu-
pants under surveillance for several days.
Three days ago they saw Frank Brooks,
alias Pretty Frank" an ex-conyicl, 70 in TO
the place. Inquiry proved that he was fire.
quently seen there. The Inspector Immedl-
atey ordered the detectives to follow "Pret-
ty Frank" into the fat the next time be was
seen to enter.
Saturday afternoon about o'clock Brooks
appeared and went In. The detectives fol-
lowed, and found him In his room. He was
seated at a. table writing when the detec-
tives entered.
The detectives secured the paper and
made the discovery that IL was the beginning
OF green goods circular. Brooks was
placed under arrest and the room searched,
resulting In the finding OF a big black trunk,
containing complete green goods outft.
The trunk and Brooks were taken to police
headquarters.
Later In the day the detectives raided an
other place at No. 2l1 East Hath street
There Terence. alias Poodle" Murphy was
captured. A hect0graph letter was secured
men were working In concert. Murphy was
taken to police headquarters also.
In the trunk, when 1t was searched yester-
day, were found 46 books, containing 600O0
names OF men from almost every city, town
and hamlet 10 the United States. One set Of
books contained the right names Of these
parties and their addresses, while another
set had cipher entry.
Two tin boxes were among the discovered
things In the trunk. In them were 6OOO let
ters and kilograms from victims, dated from
every part Of the country.
Brooks and his confederates have done
during the past few months an immense
business, or rather preparation for II. They
have recently mailed 10000 circulars to va
rious parts of the country. The postage
alone In one month has cost $1,000.
Sometime within year Brooks purchased
q printing office and. with the outfit, pro-
duced bis own circulars at a reduced cost.
When he had finished the work he re-sOld
the press and material.
Replies will be coming In from the 100000
circulars very so0D. but not one cent Of good
will Brooks or his iyc0nfederates realize from
them. for without the records and the cipher
number the game cannot be worked with
success.
The circular which the gang has dIstrib-
uted SO literally holds out the usual alluring
bait Customers must come TO this city and
90 their business personally. The goods
and rates are described as follows:
MY prices are as follows: $500 by 5000;

AAwAIps REMARKABLE LAKE.
Its Waters saIter Than Those Of the
Dead Sea.

SAN FRANCISCO, October ga wonder
full lake. named ALA PakaI, has been discov-
cred on the Hawaiian Islands. Its waters
are more salt than those of the Dead Sea.
Samples of the water have been recently an
alyzed in the laboratory of Oahu College,
with results of popular as we'll as scientific
interest.
The water, which in dry weather deposits
brine, yet 1t differs essentially from the brine
obtained by evaporation OF ordinary sea
water The difference is strikingly Shown
by merely mixing two clear fluids, when a
c0pi0uS deposit Immediately forms of sui
phate Of lime. so that the mixture almost So
lidifies. The sea water contains sulphate of
magnesia In abundance, but scarcely any
lime, while the salt lake water contains
chloride of calcium, lime salt, with only a
trace of sulphate in composition. The water
or Ala Pakai approaches closely to that of
the Dead Sea. Analysis shows that it con-
tains at present more saline matter than has
ever been reported, so far as knowledge
goes, from the Dead Sea. The specific zray-
lty OF the water, even at temperature of 800
Fahrenheit, is 1855; at standard tempera-
ture it would. OF course, be higher The
water OF the Dead Sea is considerably light
er, its specific gravity having been found by
different observators to range from 1.13

The most remarkable peculiarity of the
water Is the excessive quantity of lime it car
ries. This should give 1t peculiar medical
virtues, the water to be taken, of course, like
that of strong lime springs, only after dilu-
