BROOKLYN, April 2.-The police au-
thorities do not think the bomb wh ch
caused such q sensation among the
residents Of the fashionable locality
in this city at midnight was exploded
with malicious intent There is every
indication, however, that the explosive
used in the construction OF the
bomb was either nitro-glycerine
or dynamite. The action was
downward and the cobble stone upon
which the noisy agent rested was pull
verified. The perpetra' or of the out
rage is supposed to be man who called

hood on q begging mission at late
hour last night He said he was not
a convict and tho meager de-
scription which can be obtained
by the police describes the man Of
medium size and build and of
middle age. This man may have COM
mitted the outrage In spirit of
revenge, but did not probably
mean to kill anyone. Nearl y every
window for two or three blocks are
shattered. Nobody, however,
was injured except Mr.. Beck
nagle, who is an old man in
feeble health. The police arc at q loss
to imagine motive for the crime, and
as yet have made no arrests.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, April 2.-Witb
tho going down of tho wind the tele-
graph is again brought into service
and the storm stricken district
is heard from. The wire
service is still very bad, but
there is enough news coming into show
that the terrible work was far
reaching and very destructive.
Careful estimates regarding the
number Of killed and wounded
throughout the state as the result OF
tho winds havoc make it nearly 100
killed and between 200 and 300 in
jured.
All that territory lying west of n
line through the center OF Kingman
county is still virtually cut IF
from the world and just what has oc-
CURED in that territory Gun not be
learned for some days yet The tor
nudo came from the southeast
and went across the western
part of the state, spreading destruc-
tion clear up into the Nebraska line.
The first damage by the storm was
noted near the southwest corner of
the state, and the last
report is from the north
east corner. In addition to this
principal storm thcre was second Of
less intensity which went across the
eastern part of the state not taking so
many lives, but doing fearful damage
to crops, trees and farm buildings
Tho following is the estimate placed
on the dead and and wounded rs near
as can be ascertained at this time:
South Haven, dead and 80 in
jured; Wellington. dead and 90 in
jured. On firms between these two
towns, dead and 0 injured; Towanda,
II killed and As wcunded; Augusta, Z
dead and 10 injured; Homestead, 5
dead and injured; Strong City, . dead
and wounded; Salina, 10 injured, 8
fatally.
These towns are the only ones from
which anything like q definite report
has been obtained and the possibilities
are that when the western towns and
villages are heard from the death list
will be swelled to nearly 100.

OVER THE PAPERS.
Street Committee and City Sur
veyor at 0uts-Both Sides
of the Case.

There is hitch in getting the
contract and bond for the South Com
mercial street improvement signed
up, that may delay the work some
few days.
City Surveyor McCaustland re-
fused to turn them over to the street
committee Friday. His position is
that the specifications, contract
plans, and bond, belong to the city
and are in his custody, that he has
been suspended from his office for
two weeks and no one is authorized
to receive them. The papers are all
bound in together and properly be-
long in the city surveyors office.
Mr.. McCaustland believes he very
properly refused to turn them over
to the contractor. The fact that he
had not been paid for doing the
work cut no figure.
Chairman Hunt says he believes
the street committee is entitled to
have access to those papers and that
the surveyor is liable on his bond
for any damage to the city or private
property by delay 10 the street work.
The committee visited the city sJr-
veyor Friday evening and asked him
to turn them over, but he refused.
Chairman Hunt expressed himself
that he believed it was spite work
on the Surveyors part TO force the
city to pay for drawing the specif-
cations, contract and bond, when
the city has already paid for most of
the work which was done at the city
attorneys office. Thus the matter
stands. Mr.. Hunt says he has done
all in his power to have the street
work not drag.
