EXPLOSION OF POWDER.
A Building at Santa Cruz Blown to
Pieces

SANTA CRUZ, Oct. 7.-An explosion
at the California Powder Works, two
miles above this city, this morning at
half-past O'Clock, destroyed the roof
and siding of a single wheel grinding
mill, but resulted in no personal in
Jury The mill was running on fuse
bowder, which requires three hours
time other powder requiring from four
to twelve hours, according to character
and quality. The two men employed at
this mill are required to be in the mill
only at certain times to start or stop the
machinery, and at the time of the ex-
plosion were at a safe distance. No
canse can be assigned for the acci-
dent, as nothing was left of the COM
position in the process of grinding, and
nc impairment of the machinery to show
az Y irregularity of its operation. The
framework built of timbers ten inches
square, stands there this morning naked
as the day it was first constructed. The
rt of, sides and every light piece of wood
were blown out in chunks and splinterS.
One door was lodged in a tree fifty feet
high The bed in which the grinding
wheels We're run was damaged consid-
erably, but the pair of wheels, weigh
ing seven tons, still stand firm as
though no accident had occurred. The
debris and framework caught fire after
the explosion, but watchmen and work.
men quickly responded and soon
ouenched it. The building stands iso-
lated from the others among the trees,
so danger from fire to the other build
ings was slight. The report of the ex-
p'osion was plainly heard in all parts Of
the city. Accidents are very infrequent
at these works, as the greatest care is
observed by the managers, A. B. Pey-
ton and his two sons.

board of conciliation. The company
agrees that all men shall be taken back
except those guilty of destroying prop
erty or criminally jeopardizing life. The
company also agrees to recognize the
o. r. T. and it's members. The question
of rules and salaries is to be taken
up by the telegraphers and five General
Superintendents of the system. The
management gives assurance that JUS
tice shall be done to all. 1t is under
stood also that no striker is to be prose-
cuted."
The 0. r. T. regards this as a ma
terial victory, and the recognition of the
order by the Canadian Pacific, it is be-
lieved, will undoubtedly result in dis
patchers and telegraphers securing a
contract governing rules and pay.
ST. PAUL, Oct. IA Winnipeg spe-
cial to the Dispatch" says: "a hitch
has occurred here in the settlement of
the telegraphers' strike. The company
refuses to take back men who have
committed grave acts, and a difficulty
has arisen over what constitutes a grave
act The company's definition is such
that the strikers refuse to accept it and
have sent to headquarters for instruc-
tions. They claim that none of the
men were guilty of grave acts, and all
must be taken back without prejudice.
There the matter rested at noon. Chief
Telegrapher Pierson claims the men,
bers have received full recognition and
the company has gained a point in COM
pelling men to air their grievances be-
fore the Division Superintendent"

SENSATION AT SANTA CRUZ n
Judge Logan Assaulted by a
Woman.

SANTA CRUZ, Oct 7.-Superior
Judge Logan was publicly assaulted on
Pacific avenue this afternoon by Mrs
Catherine Mackenzie.
Mrs. Mackenzie came to Santa Cruz
in 1882 with DIR. Stewart who passed as
her brother The pair moved In the
best society until 1890, when a woman
who gave her name as Etha Hill ap-
peared on the scene, claiming to be the
wife of Stewart. A divorce SUIT fol-
lowed, Mrs. Mackenzie being named as
correspondent The suit was tried be-
fore Judge Breen, sitting in Judge I4o-
San'S court, and the latter gentleman
appeared as witness for the wife Mrs.
Hill triumphed, the court holding that
DR.. Stewart and Mrs. Mackenzie were
not brother and sister. The denial to
the defendant of a new trial was only
made on October Sd last, and the as
sault upon Judge Logan this afternoon
Is the result of the sensation.
Mrs. Mackenzie awaited Judge Lo-
gan on the corner Of Church street and
Pacific avenue, and as he approached
she drew a small cart whip from the
folds of her dress and struck him on the
arm. Officer Horton, who witnessed
the assault, took the whip away from
the infuriated woman before she could
do further damage, and escorted her to
Justice Gardners court, where she was
ultimately released on BAIL
Judge Logan, who is candidate for
reelection to the Superior bench, is Of
the opinion that the attack was made
for political effect, inasmuch as the
friends Of Mrs. Mackenzie are bitterly
opposed to his election.
Mrs Mackenzie and DR.. Stewart are
still living under the same roof as

CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct.6, via Bull
garia, Oct. 1T was semi officially an
nounced here to-day that the Turkish
Government, after weighing the matter
and consulting certain advisers, has
come to the decision not to admit the
United States warship Bancroft
through the Dardanelles and, there
FORE she will not be able to act as guard
ship to the United States Legation in
these waters.
The Porte, it is said, has also decided
not to admit the guardships Of Greece
and Holland.
1t should be added that the United
States Government is not known 10
have presented through Minister Ter
Iell formal demand for the passage Oh
the Bancroft or any other United states
warship through the Dardanelies.
The exact ground upon which the
Turkish Government takes its stand IN
this case is not stated, but it is known
in official circles here that Russia OBJ
jected to the presence in the Bosphorus
CT United States, Grecian or Dutch
guardships.
The objections to extra guardships
here are said, according to general re-
pert, to be based on the Berlin agree
L,
sentation in the Bosphorus any Powers
not a party to that agreement.
It is believed that Mr.. Terrill, about
a month ago, sent an urgent request to
WASHINGTON for United States war
vessel.
1t is further intimated that the United
States Government Will insist, by force
if necessary, upon the presence OF the
Bancroft in the Bosphorus, taking the
ground that such step would not be an
unfriendly act to Turkey, in view OF all
the circumstances, and that the pro-
lection Of the lives and property OF
American citizens made it necessary.
The Turkish Government has sent a
circular to the different embassies de-
,nanding the right to search foreign YES
sells passing Constantinople for Arme-
mans.
1t is believed that the Powers will not
accede to this request, as up to the pres
ent Armenians who sought refuge on
board of British or French vessels have
heen protected by the guardships here
until the vessels on which they sought
refuge sailed for their destination.
Adyices from the Island of Crete state
that the entire population in the inte-
rior is still under arms and the leaders
have announced thaL Lney Will Tehe"
llcstilities unless the Turkish garrlsons
are withdrawn from Crete. This has
caused a renewal Of the excitement, and
the situation has once more assumed
q threatening aspect.
1t is believed that the Turkish Gov
errment will insist upon maintaining It's
garrisons in Crete, and will have the
support Of the Powers, who recently
brought about what was looked upon as
a settlement of the Cretan difficulties
by compelling the Porte to grant nearly
all the reforms demanded by the insur-
gents and giving them a sort of loca
self government, which was looked
1;pon as satisfactory to the insurgent
leaders.
This fresh demonstration in Crete viii
Ill all probability bring about further
trouble and postpone again definite
settlement Of the Eastern question.

YESTERDAYS FIRE.
Stadtler's Bakery Destroyed and Two
Residences Damaged.

Shortly before noon yesterday the
bakery on T street, between Ninth and
Tenth, owned and conducted by Michael
Stadtler, was totally destroyed by fire,
together with the entire stock, house
hold furniture and clothing of Mr.. and
Mrs. Stadtler.
The fire caught from the bakery ovens
and spread rapidly, the entire building
being wrapped in flames before the fire
engines arrived at the scene.
The flames also spread west to the res
idence of Matthias Schink, and east to
that Of John Douglas, the latter of
which was rendered practically value
less by reason of fire and water COM
bined Much of the furniture, however,
was saved, and the loss, which will
probably reach $500, is covered by in
surance.
The Schink residence came through
the fire with less loss, and it is thought
$500 will repair the damage, which is
fully covered by insurance.
Stadtler's loss is estimated at S1,6OO,
while the insurance carried was only
$500
