time Of his arrest he was on his way to the
three years imprisonment. The victim of

MEN BLOWN TO PIECES.
Louisville Soldiers Killed by the
Explosion of a Caisson.
SIX DEAD AND SEVERAL INJURED.

Tho Accident Occurred In tho Residence
Portion of the City, aud the victims
Were Members OF a Local Artillery
Company.
LoUIsvTLLE, Sept. ia horrible acci-
dent, In the death OF SIX and the wounding
of several members OF the Louisville I.e-
gion, occurred by the explosion of a Gals
son. The accident took place on Broadway
between Third and Fourth streets, where
the First Kentucky artillery were stationed
for the purpose of firing salute.
Two of the bodies were blown over the
house tops, and were horribly mangled.
The wounded have been removed to the
hospitals. Two horses attached to the
cannon were 30 horribly mnngled that
they will be put to death. All the killed
were members Of the First Kentucky ar
tillery, of Louisville, which has always been
considered tho finest In the state.
Those killed are: Corporal AL Robinson,
Privates Charles Oestrich, Charles Wood,
Howard Irwin, - Mcbride, = Hutch
ins, and the driver, William Adams, col
ored.
The place where the accident occurred
Is one of the finest resident districts In the
city. Fortunately, few people were on tho
street or the list of killed and injured
would have undoubtedly been greatly in
creased. Every window in the block was
blown out.
The body Of the colorcd driver, mangled
almost beyond recognition, fell on the
front porch of q residence, fully 300 feet
from the place where the explosion oc-
CURED Just outside the fence and on the
sidewalk was the body of Private Woods
Bits of flesh and pieces of bloody uniform
were scattered all along tho street, cling
ing to the tree tops and in the shattered
windows. A leg and half q coat were
found on Third street. one block south of
where the explosion took place. They
must have boen blown clear over q three
story and basement house. Several man
gled legs and arms were found ON the tops
OF adjacent houses.
1t is believed that the body of Private
Hutchins Was blown to pieces, as 1t has
not yet been found. The body of Howard
Irwin was SO badly mangled that 1t was
almost impossible to gather 1t up without
shovel. IL was found at the intersection
OF Broadway and Fourth streets, nearly a
block away.
1t Is doubtful If anything ever occurred
In this region that hns caused such wide
spread sorrow. The regiment to which
the young men belonged is made up OF the
pick and flower of Louisville. Many of
them are society leaders and of wealthy
families. Captain David Castlenan, who
was In charge, was riding at the side OF the
detail. He escaped injury.
The battery was OH its way to Phoenix
hill for the purpose Of firing a salute of
forty-four guns. There were sixty sig
pounds of powder in the caisson.
