SIX MEN MEET DEATH.
Many Worknen Buried in the Ruins
of a Big Tannery at
Woburg, Mass.

Woburn, Mass, April 1-Just before Z
o'clock this morning one of the boilers in
the Conn tannery in this place exploded
with terrific force, killing six men and in
juring FIVE others. The dead are
AUSTIN CLEMENS, foreman
PATRICK LALI.Y. fireman
THOMAS PATTERSON, night foreman.
pAIRdGk M3GONAGLE, boilermaker.
PATRICK RILEY, had both legs broken;
died in the hospital.
The injured are:
Michael Mcclure, internal injuries.
Patrick Keefe, bad scalp wound
John Tracy, scalp torn off.
Herbert Sanders. colored, badly burned
about head and several ribs broken.
John Kennedy, scaip wound
William Rhinedress, injuries to hip.
John Jennings. cut and bruised.
Frank McMahon.
There had been trouble with the boiler
for some time and early this morning
John Parker, foreman of the plant, was
called to the boiler room. 1t was found
that the water supply was not properly
adjusted, but this was remedied. BY the
time the tannery opened for the day it
was thought that the boiler was all right.
Five minutes before o'clock Mike Par
ker entered the boiler room and ordered
that the whistle be blown. The rope at
tached to the whistle was pulled and in
stantly there was fearful explosion.
The big iron smokestack of the boiler
house was blown high into the air and fell
across the roof of the shop. The tall
brick chimney fell in a thousand pieces,
CRUISING the engine room beneath it.
When the smoke and dust cleared away
the scene of the wreck and ruin was re-
vealed. M Ell hurried from all parts of the
town and the work of removing those
buried under the ruins was commenced
Immediately. The pitc0us cries of the
inJnrp1 rinDpH IIp1a,. bo lobriSs
the rescuers to rapid work and in a short
time the bodies of four men had been re-
moved and five of the injured had been
taken out. 1t was then found that one
of the four boilers had been blown to
pieces, completely wrecking the boiler
house and demolishing several sheds near
by. The head of the boiler fell 800 yeards
away from the tannery and the boiler
tubes were scattered in every direction.
The falling chimney and smokestack
wrecked the tannery bullumg itself and
the structure will have to be re-
built. 1t is not known how many
2}en were in the tannery when
the explosion occurred. but when the
roll of employees was called shortly before
IL clock seven men were missing. 1t
is not known whether or not they had
begun work when the accident happened.
The fire department was called out
promptly and the wo.k Of removing the
wreckaee and taking out the dead and
injured was carried on under the direc-
ton of the fire chief. The tannery is a
three-stOry brick building and is fully in
sured. The boilers. which are of $50
horse power, were inspected only yester-
day and declared to be all right. 1t is
believed that the explosion was caused
by the exhaustion of the water in the
boiler
The seven men who were missing have
been located. They were not injured.
Patrick Riley. who was taken from the
ruins alive, died At the Massachusetts
General hospital this afternoon.

ports having encountered two unknown
boats, heavily armed with cannon and
apparently well equipped with all the
munitions of war. When hailed the
boats made no reply and the Mexico fish
efmen, being afraid to make any further
advances, made their escape from the
locality as fast as possible. / is thought
the ships have some bearing on the Gu

that there are pirates manned by rene

strangers seen within the past few days

other points in Yucatan whose business
is unknown and who are evidently Gu

gaining recruits for the rebel cause on

NO DECISION YET.
Supreme Court Makes NO An
noAnCement Regarding IN
come Tax Case.

Washington, d. c., April 1.-The Su-
preme court of the United States failed to
hand down decision in the income tax
cases today, to the disappointment Of a
large audience which had congregated
with the hope that an opinion would be
forthcoming. During tae session some
members of the bar passed around writ
ten reminder that it was the 1st day OF
April.
The Supreme court dismissed the writ
of error in the case of John H. COlvin
against the city of Jacksonville from the
United States circuit court for the North
ern district of Florida. Colvin, claiming
to be a citizen of Illinois and the owner of
property to the amount of $4,000 in
Jacksonville, in May 1894 applied for an
injunction against the city and Mayor
ID. q. Fletcher to prevent the issuance OF
bonds for $1,000,000 on the ground that
able in lawful money the city council pro-
vided that it should be payable in good
coin. The court below dismissed the
bill for want of jurisdiction and the Su-
9reme court dismissed COlvin's appeal.
Justice Shiras explained that since the
question of jurisdiction of the lower court
had been certified to the Supreme court
by that court the absence of such certi-
fcate was fatal to the maintenance of the
writ.
In the case of George F. Orchard
against William Alexander and Eben
Pierce against James A. France. cohsoli-
dated, in error to the Supreme court
from the state of Washington, the plant
if contended that the law regarding the
presumption of public lands authorizes a
quasi-judicial hearing before register
and receivers, whose decision is tanta
mount to a decision binding both the gov
eminent and the applicant in respect to
the matter of settlement and improve
ment and one not subject to re-eXamina-
ton by the commission Of the general
terror. The decision was adverse to this
view and held that there was nothing in
the law to take such cases out of the
general grant of power to the commits
sicner of the general land office and the
secretary of the interior to control all
matters in respect to the sale and dis
posal of public lands confirming the judg
ment of the state court.
The court issued an order for re-
argument of the case of William Tregea
against the board of directors of the
Modesto Irriga ton district of California.
The case involves the constitutionality
of the Wright irrigation law.

Charges Made Against Capt. Stat
terry, Formerly with an Ele-
vator Company.

ST Louis, Mo-, April IA local paper
states that at a meeting here recently at
which were present some of the best
known grain merchants in st. Louis, who
were formerly associated under the COM
mercial title of the Merchants Elevator
company, which went out of business in
1890 to be succeeded by the st. Louis
United Elevator company, measures
were enacted which promise to unfold
to the public gaze one of the profoundest
business sensations ever known IN st.
Louis. Proceeding, the paper says: THE
st. Louis United Elevator company was
founded by Capt. d. P. Slattery in 1888,
the captain having. associated with him
J. w. Thompson, L. c. Thompson, I. NJ.
Harris, d. Block, R. II. Kern, W. t.
Anderson, Judge II. d. Laughlin and
others. Capt Slattery was president and
general manager of the company all the
time 1t was in business, he having q
majority Of stock of the concern. At
the time it was sold to the trust Capt.
Slattery and members of his family held
hit of the 1850 shares in existence.
Only partial settlement was made with
the stockholders at the time the company
sold out to the trust and it is said that
all subsequent efforts to effect settle
ment of the affairs of the concern have
been futile. The late consultation re-
suited IN the appointment of a committee
consisting OF ID. Block, Henry D. Laugh
lin, Robert II. Kern and w. L. Anderson
to bring about settlement The com
mittee was instructed to place the matter
IN the courts for adjudication"
w. /. Anderson, one of those interest
ed, when seen said: The strangest feat
ure is that we cannot account for about
$4,000 or $4,000 worth of wheat that
was in the elevator. Slattery was presi-
dent and in full control. / cannot see
how it was that it got away without
someone knowing it. We had 100000
worth of bonds on the elevator which we
never ordered him TO sell, but they are
not accounted for. They We're issued TO
borrow money on wheat, that being the
only way TO raise collateral He claims
to have taken them up himself after sell
ing the wheat-that he paid the money
and took the bonds. The bank accounts
will show whether be did or not. He ran
the bulk of the business, but he had no
right to sell the bonds without orders from
the board of directors. We got back
what we invested, but without the prof

Sent to the Mines in North
ern Japan.

Simonosaki, April 1.-Koyama Rokun-
seki, the young Japanese who attempted
to assassinate Ii Hung Chang, has been
sentenced to penal servitude for life.
The armstice established by the order
of the Mikado extends to April 20, but
it will terminate if the peace pour Darlers
are broken in the meantime. According
to the terms of the armistice the move
ment of troops and the transportation of
contra band of war by sea is forbidden
The new distribution of troops not in
tended to augment the armies in the field
is allowed.
Washington, D. c.. April lit is said
at the japanese legation that the young
japanese who shot Ii Hung Chang prob
ably will be sent to the mines of North
ern Japan to serve his life sentence The
locality is much like Siberia and a SEN
tence there is dreaded by the japanese
as little short Of death. The unofficial
reports of the sentence make no refer
ence to the trial or conviction. 1t is I'M
military trial would have resulted in
death. When the japanese summarily
punished those who attempted the life of
the Russian crown prince it raised agi-
tation in the japanese Parliament, as
the government was accused of crowd
ing the trial and not according to the
usual rights of defense in the desire to
make amends to Russia. In the present
case the speed Of the trial is accounted
for by the fact that the offense is re-
garded as one against the government of
japan and therefore reasonable.

ton as assuring his recovery Serbia is
one of Germany's most distinguished
surgeons, who has entered into the serv-
i've of Japan,
