FIRE IN A STATE PRISON.
Massachusetts ConVictS Set Fire to
the Tool Shop.
ANOTHER UPRISING THREATENED.
But Averted by the Prompt Action OF the
OmciaIs-The Fire Gotten Under Con-
troll Speedily After $4,000 Worth OF
Damage Had Been Done.

BosToN, April 10 The trunk shop con.
nected with the Charlestown state prison
was discovered to be on fire at o'clock
this morning. The fire was restricted to
this building and under control in half
m hour.
The fire was a deliberate attempt on
the part Of the convicts to burn the
prison. The prisoners had marched to
the yard at TAO O'Clock with their
buckets, aud under ordinary circum-
stances would have returned TO the
buildings, but as 1t happened the warden
had instructed his officers to have the
prisoners drawn up in line so that he
might say few words to them con-
cerning the changes which had heen
made in the prison discipline and several
more which are going into effect at an
early date.
The men as had been directed, had Just
been drawn up In line ready to listen to
what the new warden might have TO
say, and that official had emerge from
the main building and WAS about TO
speak Not word however of the pro-
posed talk was uttered, for at that mo-
ment volumes OF smoke poured out OF
the trunk shop which is located In the
recently added portion of the institution
which faces on Rutherford avenue.
All was confusion. The prisoners be-
gan to rush around the yard yelling like
ma9men and making frantic attempts to
scale the wall. For some ten minutes
this continued, the men meaneims yell
ing and casting Insulting remarks at
Warden Bridges.
After desperate efforts the keepers sue
ceeded i'm getting all into their cells. aud
two alarms were then rung in and the
work OF ighting the fire was gotten under
way. The fire Was speedily under con-
trol and the damage Is estimated at
about 5000.
AT the momen that the flames burst
from the shop an explosion occurred in
the building such as would have been
caused by dynamite bomb. An inves-
tigation is now going on.

SOUTH K|NGS1ONN CASE.
A Writ Of MandamuS to Compel an
Election Asked For.
HEARING TO Be GIVEN TOMORROW
Hon. Charles Il. German VIII Present the
Case OF the Petitioners, and Hon. Ben
jamin M. Bosworth that Of the Town
Council-Ihe westerly Seats.

The political situation has assumed a
new phase In South Kingstown, aud 1t
is now evident that the Democratic poll
ticians are not likely to leav any stone
unturned to secure the members OF the
general assembly from that town.
Summonses were served upon the men,
bers OF the town council last evening to
appear at the town hall in Wakefield to-
morrow at 10 o'clock a. m, to show
cause before the supreme court of Wash
ington county why they should not or
der new election.
The writs Of mandamus we're issued in
response TO n petition signed by many
persons OF the town, who think the tow n
council has not done his duty, and also
by Attorney General Burbank.
The hearing may possib take place
Ia this city. A decision had not been
made at late hour this afternoon.
The town council Will probably file a
demurrer and efforts will be made to
have the hearing adjourned and held in
Providence. which courss will probably
be pursued.
Hon. Charles Z. German will present
the case Of the petitioners aud Hon. Ben
jamin NJ. Bosworth that of the town
council. IL the supreme court decides
that new election shall be held they will
direct the town council TO order IL.
The Republicans claim with regard to
the
Situation at westerly
that the town is entitled to its full
constitutional representation in the next
assembly and 1t is proposed that Senator
elect Hoxsey shall retain his seat as q. st
representative and Senator Smith shall
hold over for the May session as it was
not desired to hold another election be-
fore tnat session.
They hold that they can hold over
until their Successors quality. The
Democrats may. however, declare the
selt for tirst representative vacant II
they choose. and force Senator-eect
Hoxsey to present his credentials in the
senate.
The North smithfield Case.
Nothing has been heard by Governor
Brown from the supreme court in reply
TO his communication to the supreme
court as to the duty of the town clerk of
North Smithfield Co order a new ection
for representa- i've Tor Representative
Hendricks unexpred term.
Ii Is doubtful whether either the house
or the clerk will order An election for
repres snta ative. but 1t Is likely that new
election for senator will be ordered by
the clerk.
