thrown into the main building of the

Besides the immense storage stables

MAYBE NOT 4 BONE.

The only person who saw the al
legged bomb throwing was the night
Waterman. He says he was standing
near the main doorway of the barn i'm
which the motors and cars were stored.
There was whiz through the air. a
crash and tremendous explosion. If
there was bomb thrown, which many
doubt, it came through the main door
way and struck in the ear nearest the
entrance. The projectile must have
been filled with some highly intlam-
able substance as hardly ten seconds
elapsed, according to the nightwatch-
man story, before nearly all the cars
in the building were in flames. Man
ager Glynn of the company Is con-
WINGED of the truthfulness of the
watchman's story. That there WAS an
explosion, everyone in the neighbor-
hood will testify. There was
nothing of an explosive nature
about the plant and the electric
current was not on the machinery,
that at the power house not being in
operation. At $40 o'clock this morn
ing the fire was under control having
been confined by hard work upon the
part of the firemen To the buildings OF
the Milwaukee street railway com
pany. Investigation to-day shows he
yond doubt that the fire which vester-
day DESTROYED the two tannerieS cau>-
ing loss OF $3.50, 900. and by which
two lives were lost, was incendiary.
This is also the case with the two fires
on Sunday when Sl25. 1000 worth OF
property burned.

General News Items.

The record of the week does not
pass without an appalling railroad
accident. This time it was at Battle
Greek, Mich, and occurred in head
collision in which the Pacific Express,
on the Grand Trunk r. r. going west
was met by a Raymond Excursion
train going east. The engineer of the
Excursion ran by the station where
he had been ordered to stop and met
the Express advancing at rapid speed.
The Raymond passengers in Pullman
cars escaped, but several ordinary
passenger cars on the other train were
telescoped and afterwards burned
The number killed outright is about
thirty, with a larger number injured
Those killed were chiefly New York
State people going to the Fair. Two
Vermonters were in the wreck but
not hurt. The second collision on the
same day was in Illinois in which nine
were injured but none killed. It will
be relief when the tide of travel to
and from the Fair ends and the rail
roads are running less extra trains
and mourning less risks.

A corporation has been formed at
Chicago for the purpose of purchasing
and removing the Worlds Fair build
ings and has already made offers for
some of them. Machinery Hall, which
cost nearly million and quarter, is
estimated to be worth not to exceed
Sd, 1000. At least this is all that the
Chicago House Wrecking Company is
willing to give for and remove it. In
this ratio it would be very difficult to
determine the money value of that
absurd and altogether discreditable
structure at the Exposition known as
Vermont building. But if it could
have been taken down and carted off
Immediately after it was completed
for three or four times the amount it
is reputed to have cost, it would have
been vastly better for the good name
of Vermont, and have spared every
Vermont visitor to the Fair the humil-
iation that is inseparable from any
association with that worse than ri
diculous strncture.-Messenq
