Powder Hills Blown up.

HUNTINGTON, W. VA, Dot. 23.-The
powder mills Of the Phoenix Powder
Company at Kellogg, four miles below
here, blew up this afternoon at S:45
o'clock. The shock broke many win
dows throughout the city and felt like
IN earthquake. Hundreds went to the
scene from here. The explosion was
from some mysterious cause, as on Sum
day no workmen were employed about
the mill. The first explosion was in
the glaze mill, where nearly a thousand
kegs were kept, followed in quick suo-
cession by tho four wheel mills. A piece
of iron crashed through the wall of a
house half mile distant, seriously in
turing woman. Had it occurred on
any other day, numbers would have been
killed. This was the fifth "bIowup"
within twenty months.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dot. 23.-Letters from
Gilman Flu, in China, bring terrible ac-
counts Of the loss Of life and property
caused by the breaking Of the banks Of
the yellow River, which is aptly called
"China's Sorrow" 1t is estimated that
the flooded districts is $50 miles long by
80 miles wide, and that over $4,000 people
have been drowned, and that fully ,000,-
600 will starve to death unless the Chinese
Government furnishes them with food
from now until next spring.
In several districts the water is fifteen
feet deep, and whole families are perched
on the roofs Of their houses. Only the
most substantial structures resist the
action OF the water, tho majority Of the
houses crumbling away and carrying the
wretohed people to death.

The Boston Globe says the tariff issue
and the force bill issue bear very obvi-
GUS relation to each other. A policy of
taxation which is becoming more and
more odious to the general consumer
cannot be sustained without resort to
corrupt strategy, and the most available
splanin the minds of Republican leaders
shas seemed to be that of subverting the
will OF the people by an undue and des-
Spotic exercise Of the federal authority.
Glass taxation and the force bill are
snatural allies of monopoly. They de-
Ssarye to be condemned together.
