Captain David Castleman, who was in
charge, was riding at the side of the
detail He escaped injury. The caisson
contained sixty pounds Of powder,
enough to fire forty rounds.
The cause of the accident is ineXpli-
cable. The report that one OF the men
was smoking is denied by Captain CAS-
tleman. Captain Castleman said 1t was
one of those unfortunate accidents that
cannot be guarded against. A similar
disaster occurred in Chicago during the
strike, in which three men We're killed
and several wounded
| The accident happened about $50
| o'clock. The battery section was pro-
ceeding to Phoenix Hill to fire forty sa-
lutes in honor of the G. A. r. and had

lutte at o'clock from Shelby street and
Broadway. Owing to the early hour the
street was practically free from persons.
According to the best reports the men
were seated upon a caisson. One of the
privates was smoking a cigarette and a
spark is supposed TO have ignited the
powder in the box, which exploded with
out a moments warning.

Commissioners there was a Tammany ring III

Of School Trustees there were some unscrlpu-

Commissioners and provides for "A deal between
PARTIES like those to which the people OF THIS city
are accustomed. The opposition to the Dill was
led by Mr. Ainsworth, who set himself squarc!
against Speaker Fish and the Platt contingent

of independence and an urgent plea that 'he
