Smoke, Fire and Boiling Water.
Chicago. June 3O.--Early last night an
explosion Of natural gas took place under
the boilers at the Chicago Edison plant,
in the rear of the big Newberry library. at
Walton Place and Clark street. The en-
gineer and fireman were badly injured,
one boiler wrecked and all those living
north of the river using incandescent
lights were left in darkness.
The miracle Of It all is the escape OF the
big library building and its valuable col
lection Of books If the explosion had oc-
CURED when the big double doors of the
boiler room were closed, at least part Of
the library would have been blown to
pieces AS 1t was the heroism Of Engineer
Jenkins in turning off the gas from the
main, saved further wreckage, and per-
haps an immense loss Of life, for large
crowd was attracted to the scene by the
first explosion. His bravery in crawling
twenty feet through six inches OF scaldinR
water along a dark subway filed with
binding, scalding steam alone stayed a
second explosion of natural gas that was
filling the big boiler room ready for fur
ther deadly work. The loss is small.

POLICE RAKNG UP EVIDENCE.
Desperate Efforts Made by Them to
Convict Durnnt.


San Francisco, June 3O.-The police are
giving considerable time 70 the prepara-
tion of the Durant murder cases for
trial. The intimation is given out that
the detectives were holding great deal
Of important evidence in the background.
intending to overwhelm the defense with
unexpected testimony at the trial. The
fact that, at different times various bits
Of reserve evidence have leaked out, has
alarmed the detectives, and for the sake
Of preserving absolute secrecy in future,
they are keeping the real strength OF
their case even from the district attor-
neys office.
On behalf of the defense a great deal
OF quiet work is being done in the way
of investigating the records Of witnesses
for the prosecution 1t is understood that
Durants attorneys have abandoned the
notion Of asking for change Of venue,
and chat they will consent to have their
client tried byN Judge Murphy District
Attorney Barnes stated the other day
that he was perfectly willing to try the
case either in san. francisco or elsewhere.

That Puzzled the Police.
Indianapolis, Ind, June sO.--The death
Of Brice Carter, a wealthy and promi-
nent contractor of this city, early this
morning. was the elimination OF a strange
case. which has puzzled the police for the
last seven years. That long ago Mrs.
Carter complained to the police that q
servant girl who she had just discharged
was slowly poisoning her husband but
detectives who Investigated reported
Mrs. Carter had no grounds for her ac-
cusation. Several months later Mrs. Car
ter repeated her accusations and appealed
to the police, but no attention was paid
and she told her story to the grand jury.
Mr.. Carter was called and said he be-
lieved his wife was insane. At intervals
Of few months Mrs. Carter, who ap-
peared to be sane on all other topics, re-
peated the accusation. Early this morn
ing she was aroused by Mr.. Carter, who
was suffering from stomach pains, and
before a doctor arrived he was dead.
An autopsy revealed no poison, but the
stomach will be analysed to clear the
mystery of his death.

FATALITIES ON THE RAIL.
Long List of Them Among the EnEI-

neers of the f.. r., V. & G.
Knoxville, Tenn, June SO.-Railroad Off
cials say they have a clew to the person
who they claim wrecked passenger train
on the Southern railway at Fullens depot
last night. in which wreck John PaMer-
son. one of the oldest engineers in the
service of the company, was killed. A
negro was seen on the track near where
the accident occurred and as the train
approached he ran into the woods. He
was recognized by several people and de.
tectives are working up the details before
they make any arrest.
A bolt about five inches long was found
fastened inside the rail where the trucks
of the engine left the track. This was
precisely the way the same train was
wrecked only five miles from Fullens on
Sept. 20. At that time John Swats, the
engineer, was fatally injured and the fire
man only slightly scalded.
Precisely the same kind of an accident
occurred to the Washington and Chat
tanooga vestibuled limited and six miles
west of Bristol Oct. s last only that four
cars of the train left the track and were
badly wrecked. Engineer Sam Smith was
instantly killed at that time and his fire
man badly injured There a bolt was
found secured against the inside of the
rail inside of the curve. No arrests were
made. Two country boys, sons Of respects
able parents, are under indictment for
causing the wreck near Alton April u,
in which John Swats met his DEATH
The fourth engineer to lose his life on
the East Tennessee division of the South
ern in the past eight months was John
Ramsey, who was scalded to death near
Sweetwater by the bursting of a steam
pipe in the fire box of his engine. There
has been long list of fatalities among
the engineers on what was until last Au-
gust the main line of the East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia railroad, but strange
to relate, in all the accidents in which
trainmen have been killed. only two pas
sengers have been killed outright on the
242 miles of road between Bristol and
Chattanooga in twenty-five years. One
of these was an infant killed in a wreck
caused by a washout in 1880 and young
man killed by striking his head against
a bride a few years later.

The Post and the Graphic will to-mor-

peers by a government upon whose pro-
gramme the political extinction of the
House Of Lords is prominently inscribed.
The Daily News will say that It must not
be hastily assumed that Lord Rosebery
has suddenly become inconsistent, and
hints that the peerages just conferred
were promised prior to HIS speech at Brad
ford against the House OF Lords.
In its issue tomorrow the Chronicle will
say 1t is rumored that the Marquis of
Lansdowne, the new secretary of state for
war, intends to make Gen. Lord Roberts
commander-in-chief Of the army, ignoring
Field Marshal Lord Wolsley whom Mr..
Campbell -Bannerman, the late war min
lister, intended should have the position.
