TERRIBLE GASOLINE EXPLOSION IN

Results of the Flood.

Portland, June 5.--An explosion OF
gasoline occurred today at the Troy
steam laundry. Five Cinnamon were
burned to death, and four others seri-
ously injured, one probably fatally. j.
B. Henderson, one of the proprietors of
the laundry, was badly burned about
the face and body, and is seriously in
jured. The building occupied by the
laundry, together with all its contents,
was burned, entailing a property loss
of about $4,000
Since the high water compelled the
gas works to close down, the laundry
has been using gasoline to run their
irons. About twenty-five Cinnamon
were employed in the laundry.

Bulls Island.

Bulls Island.
"While we are striving to rid our
selves of the Chinese" said T. L..
Speedwell, of San Francisco. at the
Southern, "a scheme is on foot to in
itroduce them into England. 1 recently
met a man in Frisco who was engaged
in a preliminary survey of the field.
He told me that a syndicate had been
formed in London for the purpose of
importing a number of Cinnamon as
house servants. The servant girl Prob
lem has become a. serious one through
out England. AS in this country in late
years there has been an enormous in
crease in the range of the field of labor
for women, and in every walk Of life
| they are taking the place of men. At
one time the daughters of poor farmers
and artisans had no higher aspirations
than to go into service in some good
family. Now it has come to be regard
ed as mental. and increased wages offer
no temptation to girls to give up what
Ithey consider more independent work
lin stores and factories at less wages.
The double problem thus presented of
a scarcity of house servants and the
Inability of men and boys to procure
work because of the inroads of the
women, is occupying considerable
space and attention in the press of that
country. One correspondent suggests
that unless there is a change the boys
will have to be trained as dom este
servants. while their sisters fill the
places they were wont to fill in Office,
store or factory The Chinese servant
scheme will be conducted on a small
scale at first as an experiment. l do
not think it will prove successful. The
English are prejudiced against all
foreigners, and especially against those
of another color. The negro has never
found his way, to any extent, male or
female, into the house of England as a.
servant, and, besides this prejudice, is
the one still more deeply rooted among
English women, of a man doing house
hold work"-St. Louis Giobe-Democrat

Coming Around to 1t.

Columbus. June 5.-Oficers and dis
tricu president of TIE United Mine
Workers Of America met here today in
executive session. An effort is being
made to have them declare for resump-
ton of work at all the mines where the
operators consent to pay the price
asked for mining. 1t is argued that
while the miners, as a rule, have been
law-albiding some seem disposed to
to keep within the law, and thereby
public sympathy may turn the other
way
A strong feeling prevails aong the op-
orators to the effect that the miners
officials would like to confer with the
operators committee for Pennsylvania,
TDhio. Indiana and Illinois. The opera
tors, it is believed, would settle on
sixty-nine cents for Pennsylvania, six
ty for Ohio, and other districts on the
same ratio. 1t is known that the con-
ference will he acceptable to the miners.

night deny the previous story and say
the original plan will not be given UP.

who have taken the places of the strlk-

of several thousand. Many workmen
returned within the enclosure.
a number attempted to get home.
These were set upon by the strikers
and terribly bea4en. The entire police
force were on duty, but they were
powerless. AS far as now known, no
pne was killed, but several were badly
injured. One man started up Fifth
avenue, and a mob of fully 100 give
chase. He jumped on an electric car
but the mob surrounded the car and
pulling down the trolly cut the wires.
The cars have now stopped running.
About 9 o'clock, the mob surrounded
the works and are now in possession
of the plant. The sheriff has been
called and 200 deputies will leave for the
scene on the first train. The deputies
are under command of Sheriff Rich
ards, a courageous man, and he will
attempt to force the mob from the
works The widest excitement pre-
walls throughout the city, and thou
sands of strikers and their friends are

man is seen, a, rush is made for him.
If he caught, he is given thorough
drubbing.
In the crowd are many women and
children. The Associated Press has
dispatched two men to the scene. They
will arrive about 1890 o'clock
1890 D. m.-The strikers are still in
