Mahanoy City, Dec. 2, 1892.
The time of the explosion referred to was
fixed off-hand and the correspondent is
correct. The explosion occurred on June g.
1877, or over fifteen years ago. Reference to
the EVENING HERALD of the date following
the day of the accident gives US an oppor-
tunity to refresh "M. P.'s" recollection Of
the accident.
At about o'clock on the afternoon of June
%, 1877, large engine Alabama" of the
Lehigh Valley Railroad, exploded with
terrific force as it was rounding the curve
about 200 yards beyond the point where ths
road crosses Main street. The engine was
drawing train of 40 loaded coal cars John
McCroll the engineer, and John Bretz, the
fireman, were in the cab of the engine at the
time of the explosion Timothy Mccarthy,
the first brakeman, was sitting on a plank
across the tender Of the engine and was the
only person seriously injured. The steam
was thrown over him and he was hurled 30
feet by the conclusion against a stable owned
by Michael Tierney. The engineer and fire.

town and the explosion had much more force
than the one of Wednesday night The
brass railing running along the side of the
| boiler fell at the corner of Main and Oak
streets, badly twisted, large bolt from the
! front of the engine fell at the corner Of
Jardin and Oak streets, and piece of the
boiler was picked up in front of the Annun-
citation church The conclusion was SO
severe that houses were shaken severely,
window glass in Hammers store at the corner
of Main and Oak streets shattered and sew
eral sashes in the vicinity were left without
glass. The brakeman was found wandering
aimlessly about apparently deprived Of his
reason. He was attended at the house of
Mrs Bradigan by DIR, T. j. Hutton, who is
now out West. Two houses on Main street
were set on fire by shower of hot Goals
from the fire pan of the engine. The flames
were extinguished with buckets of water
explosion, but the general belief was that
the cause was as is supposed to have been the
case in the Wednesday night explosion-that
the water in the boiler was allowed to get
below the minimum. A. P. Blakslee, who
was then assistant superintendent of the
MahanOy division wrote to P j. Ferguson.
then local agent for the company, telling him
tointorm the editor of the HERALD that the
cause OF the explosion was unknown and
that the engine had been repaired but
short time. The engine that exploded We'd
nesday night was inspected but two weeks
before SO taking all the circumstances of the
old and recent explosions into consideration
they are found strikingly similar, save that
one life was lost Wednesday night.

The latter step will be necessary, as the

streets has been selected
The meeting of the monument committee
last night was the best thus far held and
everybody in attendance seemed inspired
with a spirit to give the project a good
strong push and send it bounding on the
highway of success,
There were twenty-nine delegates present
all representing difference societies. The
new representatives enrolled were J. R.
Ploppert, st. Michael's Society; T. j.
Mullahey, St. Patrick's Society Chris. Foltz
Rescue Hook & Ladder Company Grant
Band, James L. Morgan; w. c. No. 1873, d.
G. Richards Knights of the Mystic Chain,
Henry Warwick Ladies' Aid Society of the
Sons of Veterans, William Whitman; A. T.
A. B. Society, James Grant.
Mr.. Foltz stated that if the monument
would be placed in front of the High School
building the Rescue Hook & Ladder Com.
pany would donate $50 to the fund, but if
another site would be selected the company
would donate some other amount.
The discussion on site was a prolonged one,
lasting nearly an hour. Some favored the
High school, Others the brow of the hill at
Market alley and Centre street, but it was
plain that the majority favored the square at
Main and Centre streets. There were two
objections to the latter site, the railway and
the water pipes. The answers were that the
course of the railway could be changed to
have the cars run around the monument and
the foundation of the monument could be
arched over the water pipes, as was done at
Chambersburg.
Finally S. A. Beddall moved that the
square at Main and Centre streets be selected
and John Bartsch seconded the motion,
which was carried by a vote of 10 to 4.
J. T. Mullahey moved that a committee of
five be appointed to wait upon the Borough
Council and ask for the site; and also wait
on the electric railway company and ask that
the road be moved a little to one side Robert
Peel seconded the motion and it was carried.
In pursuance of the motion Hon. NJ P.
Fowler, the temporary chairman, made the
following appointments: I. ]. Mullahey, s.
A. Beddall, John G. Davis, Christ, Schmidt
and p D. Holman
1t was decided that the committee APP
pointed be instructed to ask for plot sixteen
feet square
The original committee on site was dis.
charged with thanks,
The committee then decided to have a
committee of ten appointed to secure designs
for monument to cost about 5000 and the
following appointments were made; r. H.
Morgan, Thomas Sanger James Grant, David
Morgan, s. g. Acker, Benjamin Haskey, P.
]. Ferguson, William Whitman, John Bartsch
and William Maley.
Before adjourning Secretary Dengler an
nOunced the following receipts Shenandoah

A SPLENDID IDEA.

The Formation of Democratic Ward
Clubs at Each Caucus Monday Even
ing:
The suggestion of Chairman Wheelan,
of the democratic city township COM
mittee, that at each ward caucus called
for the purpose of selecting delegates TO
the democratic county convention, a
democratic ward club be formed, is one
that THE ARGUS desires to urgently COM
mend 1t is most excellent idea. and
one that could not be carried out at a
better time than when the ward caucuses $
are held, and when the democrats
of the ward are assembled to
select their representatives, to
the county convention. 1t is important
th at the democrats of Illinois have as
strong an organization as possible in this
campaign, aud the best possible steps
that can be taken looking TO such an end
is the formation of the ward clubs as Mr..
Wheelan has planned.
1t is TO be hoped the ward caucuses
will adopt the suggestion all over the city
next Mond4v night.

Seeding Well Under Way.

It has been estimated that about
5000 acres have been seeded in Burleigh
county so far this season, the backward
spring having retarded the work. Another
week of favorable weather will find the
seeding we'll under way, and the abund-
ant moisture and inviting sunshine will
in a few days transpose the country, and
instead of old grass and fresh plowed
ground verdure and waving grain will
be seen on every hand.
