Three Men Killed and Buried Under Ton'

Prescott, Ariz., April 2.-One hun
dred pounds of giant powder exploded
in the Ohio mine of the Mescal Mining
and Milling Company late this after
noon. The mine is located nine miles
from Prescott, and the particulars are
very meagre, as the courier left i'm
mediately after the explosion TO Sc
cure medical aid for the five men who
were working in the drift where the
powder was stored. Three men had
been rescued seriously injured. The
explosion caused a cave of 100 or more
tons of rock, and whether the two men
were killed and buried beneath the
debris or in the drift behind the coveinI
of rock, could not be determined when
the messenger left. Particulars will
not be obtainable before morning.

ELECTIONS.
Republicans Garry Chicago By Nearly
FOrty-ThOuSand--CivilS Service Rules
and Other Reform Measures Pre-
vail - Results in Nebraska and
Elsewhere.

Chicago. April AT 10 o'clock the
returns from the municipal election
Indicate that the Republicans have
obtained a complete victory, electing
George B. Swift for Mayor by a plu-
rality close to forty thousand. Eight
hundred and twenty precincts out Of a
totol of 9SS, give Swift 126,615 and
Wenter SS.000 In addition to the
Mayor. the Republicans have, the re-
turns indicate, elected their candi-
dates for Assessor, Collector, Super
visor and Town Clerk in all the towns,
making a clean sweep of all the town
offices.
OF the Aldermen the Republicans
have certainly elected sixteen out of
the total thirty-four, and claim that
they have fully thirty Aldermen, but
this is very doubtful, the Democrats
claiming at least ten of them. Frank
Lawler. the ex-CongreSsman, who ran
as an independent in the Nineteenth
ward. is elected by a good majority.
The proposition to put the police and
all other city officials under civil SER
vice rules. and extending the Mayor
atty term to four years, has undOubt-
edly been carried by a majority very
close to that obtained by Swift. The
returns on this vote are coming very
slowly. but the vote as far as 1t has
been shown, is about the same proper
tions as that of the party vote for
Mayor
At the last Mayoralty election when
Mayor Hopkins was elected to fill the
unexpired term of Mayor Harrison,
the Democratic plurality was 1,291.
AT the last State election in the same
wards the plurality of Wulff, Republic
can candidate for State Treasurer,
over Claggett, Democrat, was 44,O65.
At midnight no figures had been re-
ceived to change in any way the gen
eral estimate Of the result made at 10
O'Clock. The latter returns show that
George Trude, the Democratic candi-
date for City Attorney, is running far
ahead of his ticket, and he has an ex-
cellent chance for election against
West, Republican, who has been
scratched numerically. Democratic
Aldermen have been elected in the
Sixth, Ninth. Eighteenth and Twenty
seventh wards, while the Republicans
have certainly secured twenty Alder
men. Returns from other wards are
not sufficiently definite to determine
the result with accuracy. Alderman
John McGillen, of the Twenty-frst
ward. credited with Deing the father
of the Doodle ordinance, was buried'
deeply.
The civil service rule has been car
ried by a heavy majority, probably
by 10000.

To Escape From the Kentucky Penitent-
Made by Two Members of the Mccoy
Gang and a Comrade.
Kuttawa, KY, April "A daring
but unsuccessful attempt to escape
from the Eddyville penitentiary was
made at o'clock this afternoon, when
Tom Mitchell, Riley Mccoy and Hi
ram Bonar made a desperate break.
They had in some way procured two
pistols, and when the gate was opened
to let a tramway car enter they open
ed fire on the guard and made break
for liberty. The guard returned the
fire, wounding two of them, but they
continued their flight.
They were not captured until they
had gotten a mile from the prison. AT
least one hundred shots had been
fired, and when they were finally cap
tured, it was found that Mccoy and
Mitchell were dangerously if not ia
tally shot. None of the guards or cit
liens were wounded.
Mccoy and Bonar belong to the no
torious McCoy-Hatfield gang of East
ern Kentucky, and Mitchell is des-
perado and murderer sent up from

Columbus, Ohio, April 2.-Mrs. W.:
H. B. Williams, who murdered two OF
her children at the Park hotel yester-
day, was arraigned in police court
this afternoon on two charges OF muir
der in the first degree. The accused
waived examination and was ordered
held without bond to await the ac-
ton of the grand jury. She was at
once taken to the county jail. Mr..
Williams and daughter were released
to-day by order of the coroner.
Mrs. Williams seems to have enter

she can give for numbering her two
children is that she did not want
them to suffer at the hands of their
father, as she had suffered.

Tampa. Fla, April 2.-The Olivette
arrived from Cuba tonight with very
few passengers. w. X. Hyer, OF Pen
sacola was among them. He reports
that between the 4th and goth of April
10000 more troops are expected from
Spain. He says that business is gen.
orally depressed in Havana, and that
the merchants acknowledge the fact
openly. Another passenger stated that
the steamship Concha, from Galveston
to New York, was met in the gulf by
schooner with probably one thousand
men aboard. II was thought the
schooner was expecting to meet a
steamer for some purpose unknown,
but upon discovery of their mistake,
nearly all went below and sail was
made quickly to avoid the steamer. 1t
is thought that there was an eXpedi-
ton aboard that expected TO be sup
piled with arms. 1t is reported that
Col. Arose, with thirty aides was cap
tured by the insurgents about four
days ago, near Manzanilla, while they
were at dinner.
Reports from Havana state that
smallpox has broken out among the
Spanish soldies in that city. The
Cubans dread this disease as much as
the Spaniards. 1t is stated by Cubans
arriving here that when Masseo cap
tured the Convoy, there were 100 Span
iards killed and 10 wounded, against
so Cubans killed and wounded.
