CRAZED AT A DIZZY HIGHT.
EXPERIENCE OF A GUARD UP IN THE:
FERRIS WHEEL.
A Man Strangely Affected Suddenly
Tries to Jump Out, and an Exciting
Scene Takes PIace-The Coming
Week at the Worlds Fair.

CHICAGO, Sept. 24-The guard in one
of the cars i'm the Ferris wheel at the
worlds fair had an exciting experience
yesterday afternoon as did also Mr.. and
Mrs. A. C. wherritt of Covington. Ky.
Mr.. Wherritt is seems is strangely
affected when he ascends to great
heights, but his wife who had been up
in the wheel said that she had no idea
that it would affect him. They started
up together and when the car was at
the upper turn, 300 feet from the ground,
Mr.. Wherritt gave scream and tried
to dash through one Of the windows.
He seized one Of the iron bars with
which they are guarded and tried to
bend it. The guard and some of the
gentlemen in the car grappled with him
and a furious struggle followed, the
women in the car screaming and rushing
frantically from side to side to avoid
the struggling men. The glass in the
windows was broken and Mr.. Wherritt
continued unmanageable until the car
reached the lower turn, when he began TO
calm down and shortly after being re-
moved from the car came to his senses
again.
A drizzling rain which fell the greater
part of the day kept people from the
fair today. The usual Sunday crowd
did not venture out and the attendance
was even smaller than usual Commenc-
ing tomorrow an interesting program
for the week will be begun. Tomorrow
was set aside at Christian Endeavor day
but inasmuch as the fair has been kept
open on Sundys tine .fficers OF the society
refused to celebrate. There will, how
evs' ~ a nun-' of popular entertain
ments and the crowds will find sufficient
of interest to keep Il occupied. The fea-
ture will be a grand illumination OF
Wooded island at s p. m.
Total paid attendance during last week
1894 Today's total admissions were
l7-02h. OF which 35.206 paid.

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 24.-One Of the
most hideous crimes in the annals Of the
city. resulting from the long standing
feud between union and non-union sail
ors, was perpetrated last night
shortly after midnight the southern
part Of the city was shaken by a terrific
explosion.
A dynamite bomb had been fired in
front of water front boarding house
filled with non-union sailors.
The front Of the building was blown
to atoms
Six of the inmates We're horribly
mangled. Two of them were instantly
killed, others may die.
BY whom the bomb was fired is not
definitely known, but the owners directly
charge the deadly deed upon some mem
bers of the seamen's union. One of
them. John Tyrell, has been arrested.
The boarding house was kept by John
Curtin. 1t was Curtin's custom to secure
berths for his patrons on ships employing
non-union men. In this way he incurred
the enmity of the sailors union. Less
than a week ago his place was threatened
by a crowd of union men led by John
Tyrell Curtin was threatened and when
the men left they told him his house
had only a short time to exist
The Explosion.
Last night all the inmates retired as
usual. Soon after midnight an explosion
occurred shaking the city for blocks.
The entire front of the building was torn
away, carrying the front Of the adjacent
structure with it. Men were thrown
from their beds across the street. The
sidewalk where the explosion took place
was ripped into atoms. a black hole
with smoldering beams about it showed
where the bomb blew up. Four groaning
victims lay in the street near by and
beside them We're two eorpses, stripped
of nearly every bit of clothing, lying in
a pool Of blood and cinders. An ambu-
lance was soon on the scene and the
victims were rescued from the debris
and taken to the hospital The kllee
and wounded are as follows:
GEORGE HOLMES. dead.
BRICK McGUINESS. dead.
William Mckenzie, fatally wounded.
Charles Owen, fatally wounded.
Ed Murphy, fatally wounded.
John Curtin, seriously wounded.
Charles Bernard. who went by the
name Of Owen; Edward Murphy and I.
Mckenzie died today, making the total
deaths four. The police have made no
further arrests.
