POWDER MILL blows UP.
Terrific Explosion at the Repauno
Works at Thompson's Point Near
Paulsboro, ,N.J.-One Man Xii

PAULsBoRo, N, J., March "a
frightful explosion took place at the
Repauno Chemical works, at Thomp-
sons Point, near here, this morning ut
s 80 o'clock, by which one man, named
Levi WINS was blown to atoms. At
noon the danger Of adjoining buildings
being blown up was so great that the
company had men patrolliug to keep
the crowds back Of the danger line.
The chemical works are situated n
few miles from this place, and among
the productions made there is Atlas
powder. and for the safety of the var
ions buildings they are located from
900 to 500 feet apart The building
regarded as the most dangerous is the
nitro-glycerlne building, and is this
one where the accident occurred
There are usually half-dOzsn men
employed in this building but today
five Of them left the house to do work
in another part of the plant.
Soon after came terrific crash, and
parts of the building were blown in all
directions, and mingled with the pieces
of flying timber were parts of the body
of L9vi WINS the workman who had
been left alone in the building. Just
how the accident happened no one will
ever know. Windows were broken in
houses for miles around.
This is the second explosion at this
place. The first occurred nine years
ago, when five persons were killed
Among the victims at taht time WIS

lily which operates the works and those

carnegie COMPANY FINED.
Some Imperfections in Its Armor
Plate Cause the President to AS
sess Very Heavy Damages.

WASHINGTON. March 2-The secre.
tary of the navy tonight made public
some interesting facts heretofore care
fully kept secret, in regard to the
armor plate contracts of the Carnegie
company for the new navy vessels.
The statement says;
EARLY in September last the depart
ment ascsrtained that illegal practices
were being resorted to by one Of the
employees of the Carnegie Steel com
pany, limited. at Pittsburg, in the
manufacture Of armor for the govern
ment, and that these irregularities had
been continu, ID for some time. A
thorough Investigation was set on foot
at once. 1t was ascertained that while
all the armor manufactured for che
government was good-all excelling the
lowest limit of tolerance in the specifi
cations-yst that portions of it were
not up to the highest possible mark of
excellence, which by their contract,
the company was bound to attain.
After some time sp9nt in negotiat-
ing the Carnegie Sts-l company, ap
pealed from the secretary Of the navy
to the president, WHO, on Jan. H. as
sessed the damages against the com.
pany at $40 4S4 81 and tine company.
Jan. II, settled with the department
There was no evidence showing or even
tending to show, that any Of the
officers above those Immediately sup
erintending the tempering and
heating were at all cognzlnt of these
irregularities, but as the company was
responsible for the acts of its employees,
damages to that extent were assessed
against the company and the contracts
continued. The department has taken
such precautions at this and all other
points where contract work is being
done for the government, that it is be -
ieved to be impossible for any regu.
laritiss to occur in the future without
immediate detection"
The secretary adds that the sugges-
tion that the imposition of this
fine had anything to do with Mr.. Car
negis's celebrated letter Of Jan 3, just
previous to his sailing for Europe, in
which he gave II qualified approval of
the Wilson bill, is entirely gratuitous.

MOB At STROUDSBURG.
Five Hundred Men Led by Neighbors
of Christian Ehers Attempt
to Lynch PurYear.

STRoUDSBURG Pa, March 2.-Last
night at o'clock mob of 500 persons
congrsgated at the Monroe county Jail
mere for the purpose Of lynchiug Rich
ard Puryear, the negro murderer OF
Christian E Ehlers The mob was led
by neighbors of the murdered man,
James w. Wilson, a storekeepsr at
Mount Pocono. and Luther NJ Mich
asls. superintendent of q farm at
Shawnee Word was received in the
afternoon by the county officials that
crowd from the vicinity of the mur-
der, ten mile from Stroudsburg, were
gathering and would attempt to lynch
the murderer during the night and pre-
pIrations were made for the defense OF
the Jail.
Twenty-Five men were sworn in as
deputies fully armed and placed in the
corridor OF the Jail awaiting develop
ments. About II. 30 the crowd reached
town. by this time numbering 500 peo-
pile, many Of whom had their nerves
up to murderous point by the free
use Of whisky. A blacksmith shop
was broken into and sledges, chissls
and the needed paraphernalia to break
in the Jail were secured.
Speeches were made by ex- Congress
man John B. Storm and District At.
torney Williams, trying to deter the
mob in their frenzy, hut without avail
With cries of Hang the niggsrp au
onslaught was made on the doors, using
planks as battering rams. Policeman
Weller, Of the Stroudsburg force, with
the assistance of Mayor Edinger anC
others, succeeded in arresling james
Wilson. one Of the leaders. and lodging
him in the city lookup.
BY the. .officersin charge Of the Jail the
mob was repulsed. The doors were al
most battered in, and il the mob had
succeeded in gaining entrance to the
corridor the gu ,rd in ths Jail had posi-
tive orders to shoot, which would have
undoubtedly resulted in great loss Of
life. AS it was, Henry McLusksy, o.
Jackson, had his nose broken and half
u hundred black eyes and battered
heads resulted from the free use ol
polcemens clubs.
Is is feared another attempt will be
made on the Jail As the mob left they
threatened to have revenge and pro.
missed that the next attempt would b,
more successful. The officials are abl
to cope with any mob that can be gath
cred together,

Cured one of the middle division
freight crews found n body lying across
the tracks, the head and face being
badly mutilated. He WAS removed
from the track and while the trainmen
were exalning his injuries fusilade of
bullets came from either side OF the
track, fortunately without iniuring
any of the railroaders.
Investigation showed that the man
had been dragged from the place where
the fight occurred and placed on the
track where it was evidently supposed
the Altoona accommodation soon due
would put an end to his life. Follow.
ing trail of blood, one of the partici

Assistant secretary Reynolds Espouses
Cause of Worthy Claimant.
WASHINGTON. March 2.-Assistant
Secretary Reynolds today decided a
case which will render pensionable
merltorious class of claimants. The
case is that Of Mary E., widow of Sam
uel II Walker, who served term of
ninety days and had been honorably
discharged. Walker again entered the
service and was commissioned, and
while serving the second term of SER
I vice was killed, but not in the line of
duty.
Assistant Secretary Reynolds decides
''even though the words 'honorably y
discharged be interpreted in their
broadest sense. and held to mean an
honorable discharge from each and
every term of service, yet death in the
second term of service should be con.
sidered as equivalent to an honorable
discharge unless occurring under cir =
cumstances which would have war.

OUTLOOK ENCOURAGING.
Dun & Cos. Weekly Report Indicates
That the Bottom Has Been Reached
in Business Depression.

New YORK, March 2.-R. G.. Dun &
Co.'S. weekly review of trade tomorrow
will say: With no more definite in
formation than week ago regarding
the outcome of financial or revenue
disputes, perhaps more people have
come to the belief that the end will
answer their wishes. Certainly rather
more are taking limited risks in busi-
ness, especiallyin stocks. 1t is usually
good plan for practical men to rely
little on impressions which are assid
uously fostered in speculative circles.
where people rarely labor to lift price
of things they want to buy.
A more substantial basis is the slowly
growing demand for goods. caused by
gradual exhaustion Of stocks held by
dealers, and this has further enlarged
the working force in manufactures
The fall Of silver below go cents here,
and, after slight recovery, its renewed
weakness, have an untsvorable influ-
ence on some markets. The passage of
the ssigniOraEe bill by the house has
not hai time to produce much effect,
but it is financially re-assuring.
More works have resumed or in
creased hands or hours than have
stopped or reduced, but numerous re-
ductions in wages continue to lessen
the purchasing power OF those at work.
The most encouraging feature of the
weeks record is the continued decrease
in number and Importance of failures
For the third week of February liabili-
lies thus far reported are only 81, 1856 q.
344, and for three weeks of the month
only $l1 420, 4l8. The number reported
in February is I 1850, az ,inst 1850 in
January, and the full liabilities were
probably less than $15 600, 900 against
1871, 600, 900 in January. sln November
and December the amount exceeded
800, 100000. For the past week the
failures have been 264 in the United
States against 2O6 last year, and AZ in
Canada. against 45 last year, scarcely
any being of much Importance,

HARRISBURG, p. March 2.-Another 2.

called suddenly this afternoon. While
sitting conversing with his brother,
Col. ]. Westley Awl suddenly expired
