memory. He was informed that it was
the freight depot that was OH fire, and he
reached the scene at about the same time
that the fire department arrived. his
first thought was to save the strings of
cars which we're standing on the side
tracks close 10 the burning warehouse,
and after taking look at the fire he
started out in search of a switch engine.
To his surprise he found that the crews
had retreated with their engines to place
of safety in the lower end of the yard-an
act which is of considerable significance.
he ordered an engine to run up and
switch the cars that were in danger of
being burned off from the sidetracks. but
the men refused to move. They said that
they knew there was powder in the burn
ing buildings and they remained where
they were in spite of the agents
commands, arguments and requests. Mr..
Christensen believed that the mems
fears were groundless as he knew that
his road had not hauled in any powder,
and in order to show them that he was
not afraid and to remove their fears if
possible he started to walk down towards
the fire. He heard the first small ex-
plosion and supposed that all of the
powder had gone off. When the second
explosion occurred he was almost directly
opposite the building but with three side
tracks filled with loaded wood racks be-
tween. The conclusion knocked him
under one of the cars which protected him
from the missiles and heavy pieces of iron
that fell thickly all around him. Had he
walked 10 feet further he would have
struck a lot of EN- PITY fiat cars and been
unprotected in which event he would very
likely have been killed. dead body fell
a few feet in front of the car under which
he was thrown. After this explosion the
switch engine crews retreated still further
down the yard and Mr.. Christensen gave
up all hope of moving the cars, some of
which had cought fire from the explosion.
Superintendent McLaren and Mr.. Chris
Hanson are now both well satisfied that
the cars on the side tracks we're left just
where they were when the fire broke out
as if they had been moved there would
have always been a lingering belief in the
minds of some people that powder had
been hauled away and that the railroad
was in some way to blame for the catas-
trophe.
As Mr.. Christianson was walking down
the yard a minute or two before the ex-
plosion he saw two men standing on the
top of a loaded wood car which was di-
rectly opposite the burning building and
on the sidetrack nearest to it and he be-
lieves that one of these men was Chief
Cameron. Both of these men were blown
to pieces.
The work of rebuilding the Great
Northern freight house which was COM
pletely demolished by the first heavy ex-
plosion is well under way.

There Was Very LitiIe Change Repor-
ted at the Ho pitfalls Yesterday.
Outside of the death of Dewey there was
little change at the hospitals to-day. The
strength of the more seriously injured is
gradually giving out, however, and there
will probably be several more deaths
within the next As hours.
At the Sisters hospital Charles Aston
and VIII Bow are IN a most critical con-
dition, and it is hardly probable that
either one of them will recover. Both of
them have had part of their brains
taken out and if they should by any
possibility recover they would be more or
less affected. Bow talks almost con-
stantly, while Aston lies in a comatose
condition.
Bob Coleman also had about a handful
of his brains taken out, but he is getting
along nicely and DIR. Bryant believes that
he will recover. lie will be partly de-
mented, but may recover his reason in
time. The other patients are all doing
nicely.
CON ST. CLAIR VERY LOW.
At Murray & Freund's hospital the hope
of recovery of Con ST. Clair. the Montana
Central car checker, has about been aban-
doned. His father has been telegraphed
for, but his condition is so serious that il
is feared Con cannot live until he arrives.
die before morning.
Henry TiggerInan is also sinking and
but little hope is entertained of his re.
covery. The others of the injured are
doing nicely and moving slowly towards
recovery.

There's Great Fear That Several Un-
known Persons Perished.
Inquiries continue very numerous for
parties thought to be missing. The utter
disappearance of Charles Hoifoauer, with
nothing found of him except a PAIR of new
shoes that he carried under his arm, leads
to the fear that others may have been ut
terly exterminated in a similar manner.
The father of John HeaIy, who lives in
Minneapolis, has telegraphed to this city
asking for knowledge of his son.
ID. II. Lehmer, formerly of Lincoln,
Neb., is asked to call at No. 2l1 North

William Bradley of East Vassalboro.
was in the city, Thursday afternoon, and
is authority for the statement that the
landlocked salmon are running from
China lake into the outlet stream at East
Vassalboro in great numbers. These fish
were put into the pond about five years
ago, and though none have since been
canght, there is now evidence that the
young fish have grown well, for 1t is
claimed that some OF those going down
stream are over two feet long. Consider
able anxiety is felt as to the safety of the
fish which are going down stream, for 1t
is feared that they will get into the small
pond above the Vassalboro wooden mills
at North Nassalboro. and there die for
want of deep water and proper food dur
ing the coming winter No doubt the
cause of this strange exodus from the pond
Is on account Of the low water in the
streams where the fish usually 60 at this
season of the year to spawn, and as the
outlet is the only quick running stream
water they can find, they go there to be
carried down over the dam, probably never
to return. Without doubt some con-
trivance will be built to keep the fish
back In the pond.
