The Init. Horror.

A fire broke out in the Royal Mill
ing Company's warehouse at Butte,
Montana, Tuesday night and spread
to the Kenyon.C Cornell warehouse. in
which were stored several carloads of
giant powder. While the tiremen
were fighting the lire terrible explo-
sions occurred, killing every fireman
save two. The people in the vicinity
OF III" FIRE were mown down Us il with
a great scythe.
The latest reports put the number
killed at sixty. Nearly fifty are
known to be killed. Many Of the
bodies are mangled beyond recogni
ton and never will be identified. 1t
is believed that many more bodies
will lie found under the ruins. In
additionto those killed outright there
Is a large number Of wounded men in
the hospitals, some OF whom are so Sc.
verely injured that recovery is impos.
sible.
The City is i'll mourning and all
flags are ut half mast. The Mayor
called a relief meeting which was
largely attended and committees
we're appointed for the collection of
money for the relief Of the afflicted
families.

Submarine Cables.

There are NOW twelve transatlantic
cables connecting Europe with Can
| ada and the United States, and steps
have been taken to lDy a cable across
the Pacific from British Columbia to
Australasia by way OF the Fiji Islands,
| The circle OF the earth will then be
completed, but not so directly as it
would be by II cable from America to
japan.
There are now $4,000 miles OF sub
marine cable. in round numbers. Of
which 10 per cent have been supplied
by the various Governments, and the
rest by private enterprise. They
connect into one system over 100000
miles OF land wires, ramifying in diff
ferent countries. The cables have
cost about Gi0,O00!OO0 and tho land
lines Eos, 600, 600, but the money has
been well spert, for the benefits OF the
telegraph are incalcuable.
1t controls the commerce OF the
world, which has risen to nearly ca.
0O0,000.0o0 a year, or, more precisely
fl.0i0, 0C0, 000 OF exports and El,720.
100000 Of imports. 1t enables inter-

the Transvaal. 1t brings a wal that
has broken out to speedy conclusion
and keeps the public informed OF its
hourly progress, as in the case of
Egypt, where the bombardment of
Alexandria was known in London a
few minutes after the first shot was
fired, and kilograms we're dispatched
from the battlefield OF Suakim, in the
Eastern Soudan, while the fight was
going on.
