1T Is A FIZZLE.
Alleged BimetaI1ic Conference Run
BY 'POps."

Washington D. C. May 23.-LSpecial.]
The so-called Pan-American bimetal-
lie conference, in session here. is a
fizzle. There are few Democrats or
Republicans in attendance. 1t is a
Populist gathering, and is run so dis
tinctly by that party that others have
kept away.
The election of General Jim Field
of Virginia, as permanent chairman
shows the straits the assemblage is
in He amounts to nothing in his
state, and could not be elected con
stable there.
Virginia has sent more delegates thar
any of the states, perhaps, and they
are all "Pops." Influential friends OF
silver will have nothing to do with the
present gathering.

ROLLING MILL EXPLOSION.
Men Who Took strikers Places Tn
Willingly Caused IL.

One Of the large engines in oliver q
Roberts ninth street mill. South Side. Pitts.
burg, was blown 10 pieces yesterday. and
several non-union men narrowly ESCAPED
death or serious injury. Pieces Of iron
were hurled in every direction, and strange
TO say, not man was injured. The cause
OF the accident was the unfamilarity Of
the new men with taking out rolls. They
had placed large piece OF mill in the rolls
before il was hot enough. and the pressure
on the engine caused the cylinders TO
blow up completely wrecking the entire
engine.
The explosion made a terrible report, and
the men ran from the mill. Considerable
damage other than wrecking the engine
was done.
The accident occurred in the rod mill,
where the thirty-two heaters went on a
strike Saturday. New men took the places.
and those working the No. l rolls made
the mistake OF placing cold iron in the
rolls. The engine wrecked was known as
No. I. There are two others in the mill.
and it will be impossible to operate the
mill until a new engine is placed In posi-
ton. The work will take from two TO four
weeks, during which time the mill VIII
