ROLLING MILL EXPLOSION.
Mystery Surrounding Conflicting Ru-
mors of Injuries to Men.

AS result of an explosion at the rolling
mills at Capitol avenue and Merrill street
yesterday noon two large fans in the GU
polas of the blast furnaces were blown out.
Although there were several workmen
standing by at the time the mill authori-
ties claim that one was injured. There
seems to be considerable mystery about the
affair The patrolmen upon that district
are inclined to believe that some one was
hurt and their belief is shared by others.
The accident necessitated the closing of the
mills last night, but they will be enabled
to resume operation this morning.

CAPT. ALLEN IN HARD LINES.
Trying to Raise Campaign Funds
Among FederaI EmplOyes.

among FeUeraI employees.
Capt. David F. Allen, Of Frankfort, has
been in Washington over a week working
among the government employees collecting
funds for the Indiana Popocratic campaign.
While he is getting some money he is hav
ing a rather rough time of it, owing to the
stringent nature of the laws covering this
subject. They were designed for the pur-
pose of permitting government employees to
do they please about contributing to
campaign funds and they are pretty effec-
tive in that particular. It is punishable
OF. ense to tackle one of them upon gov
eminent property and as pretty nearly
everything about Washington is govern
ment property, it keeps the captain NOV
ing with care. They have to be sought out
at their boarding houses and this is rather
tedious work. Then they. are not anxious
to contribute-governmen employees never
are-and they know that they will not earn
the ill will of their superiors under this
administration by refusing. However
Captain Allen is succeeding in soaring some
of them into the notion that Bryan may
win this time and they had better be on
the safe side by letting go Of a portion
of their salaries and is thus getting enough
to pay his hotel bill anyhow.

The Three Friends
THE PLUCKY LITTLE YES.
Sci ON TRIAL.

JACKSONVILLE. FLA Dec, 28.-The
case Of the United States against the
steamer Three Friends. libel for for
feitnre of the vessel to the government
for alleged violation Of section 52S3
revised statutes Of the United States.
vas argued in the United States court
to-day. The libel is based upon the
trip of the vessel from this port last
May, when she was escorted to the
three league limits by the revenue cut
ter Boutwell, The section the Three
Friends is charged with violating pro-
hibits the fitting out 10 the United
States Of a vessel to 60 iuto the service
of foreign prince or state or Of any
colony, district OF people. to cruise or
make war upon another foreign prince,
state. colony or people.
The owners of the Three Friends
contend in their executions to the libel
that section 52S3 does not apply to the
Cabao rebellion, because the United
States has not recognized either the in-
dependence or belligerency of the
Cubans, and the courts cannot take
cognizance of the war until either the
President or congress recognizes the
existence of war. aud therefore it was
impossible for the Three Friends to
have been engaged in the service of
one political power against another po-
litical power With which the United States
was at peace. the Cuban insurgents uos
constituting a political power recog-
nized by the United States, and there
fore they are not "foreigu prince, State,
colony, district or people" as designat-
ed ia the statute.
The United States district attorney
relies upon the fact that there have
been heretofore several confscations of
vessels for violation of this section
where no war had been acknow!ed ged to
exist, butthe defense contends that their
point. uow depended on. had never
been raised in any case of prosecution
for violation of section 1888. They
admit that the United States supreme
court 10 the Weiberg Horsa case recent.
II held that section 1888, part of the
same act, can be violated without the
necessity of acknowledgements of bel
Sligerncy, but maintain that the SUI
preme court in the same case held that
section 52Ss applied only to the case
of two recognized political powers en-
gagged in acknowledged warfare. The
case was submitted and taken under ad-
visment BY the court. If the defend
ants aio this case they hold that it will
be Of very great importance to the Gu
bans, as the President will then have to
recognize the belligerency of the ca
bans, or at least prosecutions for co.,
~6rcation Of vessels under this section.
