MIN + EXPLOSION.
TWENTY-FIVE, KEGS Of POWDER
EXPLODE At GOLFERS.
THREE MINERS KILLED AND TEN
INJURED in 4 WEST WIZ
GINA MINE.

GOLFERS. w. Va, Nov. p. "A
fearful powder explosion occurred
shortly afternoon yesterday at the
Blanch Coal Mine. located at the west
end Of this town. Twenty-Five kegs
of powderexploded, causing the instant
death Of three miners and the serious
injury Of eight others, three of whom
will probablydie. The names ofthose
who we're killed are John Piosky, Wes-
ley Anders6'ih, ecolorel. Michael Coho-
ker.
The explosion occurred as the ne1f
were returning from dinner. Had It
occurred ten minutes later the de-
struction of life must have been much
greater. The force Of the explosion
shook the ground as though by an
earthquake. Wesley Andersop's body
was thrown through the air a distance
Of more than one hundred yards.
II is supposed that the explosion was
caused by piece Of fuse which became
lightened in some manner and convey
ed the fire to the boxes in which the
powder cans were kept.
The scene at the mouth of the mine
following the explosion was one of
great excitement. The entire pepula-
ton gathered, and the women, sup
posing at first that more of the men
were in the mine than really were,
begged that rescuers go in to rescue
them. 1t would have been death, how
ever, to have gone in before the air
had cleared. That some Of those who
were in the mine were not suffocated
is due to the presence ofmind of James
Clark and James Borden, who got the
outside door Of the shaft, which had
been blown from its hinges, and re-
placed it.
The mine belongs to H. G. Smith,
Of New Cumberland, w. Va, and
William Smith and John McHutt, Of
Wellsyille. About fifty men are EN-
ployed in the mine, which has been in
operation since May, 1901.

PETER and slmson Propose TO Unise ON a
Republican

TprEKA, KAN, November 22.-
Alarmed 1T the strength shown by
Mrs. Lease and the determination Of
many oflthe Populist to make her
United States Senator, If possible, to
control the Legislature, Senator PETER
and Congressman Simson have given
conntenance to proposition to unite
upon Republican who is unobiection-
able, and whose election would take
Ingall from among the further posi-
billities. To do .his it is proposed 10
give tue Populist support to Lucien
Baker, Of Leavenworth county. They
believe if they offer considerable
number Of votes the Republicans
would not 20 against him, and that
they would thus name the senator.
Mrs. Leases known hatred Of In
gals is counted upon as aiding in the
successful manipulation Of the scheme.
Mr.. Simpson believes her hatred would
overcome her ambition, and thus
enable them to accomplish their spiir-
pose. and at the same time, they
would dispose OF woman whom they
fear. Senator PETER would not talk
OF the senatorial situation
AS to the Republican, the contest
Twill be between Senator Perkins and
ex- Congressman Morrill,.

SWEET FRoM 4 can nox.

Mr.. Jennings, a freight conductor
on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad,
formerly Of this city, was badly and
perhaps fatally injured Friday morn
ing at Green Spring station, in 4 pc
culiar hammer. His train, an extra
one with engine $50, was coming west
with long train Of heavily laden cars.
in the vicinity Of Green Spring station
the rains had loosened the earth around
ID number Of telegraph poles, and
caused some Of them to fall on the
track, and some to lean over in a dan
gerous position.
Jenningsand a brakeman were stand
ing on the top OF a car, and the train
was going pretty rapidly. Not CON
scious of their danger the men paid no
heed to the poles until one that leaned
over little further than the rest swept
them from the top Of the car to the
ground.
The pole struck Jennings on the
skull near the crown, and fractured it
badly. He was picked up in a dying
condition, and taken to Brunswick
where he lives. His death is expected
hourly. The brakeman was hurt but
slightly.

THE SUGAR INDUSTRY.

In regard to the sugar industry and
its domestication in this country ,Secre-
tary Rusk in his report submitted 10
the President, says, there is nothing
to add to what he-had to offer a year
ago on this subject beyond the fact
that all the experiments conducted by
the department, both in the laboratory
and in the field, and ut the special ex-
pertinent stations established for that
purpose. confirm the hope and antici-
pations he then expressed as to the
possibility Of this country in course of
time, supplying its own sugar. Enough
has been done to show clearly that in
various sections Of this country either
sorghum or cane sugar can be produc-
ed with profit to the growers Of the
crop and to the manufacturer, proYid-
ed the conditions of culture and man
ufacture. indicated in the special tre-
ports made by this department on the
subject shall be observed. The diff
culties that exist are those Of an eco
monte character difficulties which it
seems evident that time and necessity
win gradually remove.
The rainfall experiments, he says,
are being made as Congress directed ;
but the facts in his possession dc not,
in his opinion, justify the anticipa-
tons formed by the believers in this
method of artificial rain making.
He emphasizes the need for new and
suitable buildings to accommodate the
department in all its branches, and
that these should be fire proof for the
protection of the enormous accumula-
ton Of valuable property now in It's
possession.
