HILL PARTY RETURNS.
Comes in From the West Over the
500.


When the regular 500 train pulled into the
Minneapolis union depot half hour late last
evening it had passengers a distinguished
party, consisting of Sir Stafford Northcote,
E. T. Nichols, William H. Dunwoody Mrs.
w. ]. Murphy, and Mr.. and Mrs Samuel
Hill. The party was very tired after it's long
ride, and hurried to their several homes by
carriage. Sir Stafford and Mr.. Nichols left
for New York last night, where they take
the first steamer for England.
Mr.. Hill said that the party had been more
on pleasure trip than anything else going
over the coast pretty thoroughly, and having
an enjoyable time. Asked concerning his
business matters on the coast, Mr.. Hill was
not prepared to talk at length, except to say
that everything promised WELL and that his
associates were well pleased with the West
ern outlook.
There is really nothing to say" he replied,
when asked to make a statement regarding
his interests, and If there was anything new
in business way an outcome of the trip
1T was chiefly private business, and Incl
dentally we have had nice trip, covering a
large amount of territory, and I guess every
body enjoyed it,

PREMATURE FIREWORKS.
Two Killed by an Unexpected Dis
play at Chicago.

CHICAGO, April 15.-One Of the main build
fngs Of the Chicago Fireworks company, at
Grass Point, blew up this morning, resulting
In the death Of two employees and serious
injury of six more. The dead are Nieholaus
Boree and Annie Boree. The cause of the
explosion is not known but 1t is supposed
to have been caused by some grains of powder
being ignited by .concussion in the machinery
used In making fireworks. The explosion
occurred at about $3.50 o'clock. The first dis
charge blew out the sides of the building,
letting the roof fall in. moment later
there was another explosion, which shattered
the roof AS yet the remains of Annie Boree
have not been found, and it Is the belief
that she has been blown to pieces. Nicholaus
Boree, her brother, was horribly mangled.
Several others were so badly burned and lacer-
ated that it is feared they will die. There
were eight persons at work in the building
at the time, not one OF whom escaped in
jury.

Special to the Globe.
PIERRE, S. D., April 15.-W. P. McElroy,
one of the Northwestern pioneers, died at
this place today. McElroy was born in Ire
land, and came to this country in 1854. From
1861 to 1864 he campaigned through Dakota
with Gen. Suly as chief of wagon train, and
when the Indian troubles were settled went
to Minneapolis and afterwards to Duluth, at
the time of the first boom there. In 1871 he
came to Fort Pierre, and carried the first
mail across from Fort Pierre to the Black
Hills. He then went to Bismarck, remaining
for several years as a contractor for the
Northern Pacific road, and came to Pierre in
1880, where he was appointed the first justice
of the peace, and in that capacity had many
rough characters to deal with. Since that
time he has divided his time between here
and the Black Hills, living here for the past
six years.

REVERSED BY CALDWELL.

Fine Imposed on the Milwaukee
Doesn't Stand.
Private advises from Chicago, received yes
terday morning, announce that Chairman Cald-
WELL of the Western Passenger association,
acting as arbitrator, has reversed the decision
of the Minneapolis local passenger associa-
ticn, fning the Milwaukee road for the al
legged violation of article of the local
agreement in the matter of Iowa Central mile
age used between Minneapolis and Kansas
City, and said to have been sold below the
rate sheet figures.
1t appears that a Minneapolis scalper sold
the mileage in question, SO that the rate be-
tween Minneapolis and Kansas City, on the
Milwaukee, was reduced from $14.G0 to some
thing less than $11, and the Minneapolis local
association charged violation of the article
which covers any action making rate less
than that contained in the what is known as
the st. Paul and Minneapolis rate sheet.
A fine of SO was imposed and the Miwau-
kee, whose connection with the Iowa Central
was, was ordered to redeem the unused por-
ton of the ticket The road appealed from the
sentence with the result above stated.

WILMOT, N. D., April 15.-The Sisseton

why it should not be paid. Seeding time
is at hand, the Indians are without seed,

a great injustice. A telegram relating the
