Gen. Curtis. He asked IL the home was
to destroy the regulations of as good sol
diers as ever did battle for the union,
throw them to the winds, because IL won't
hear but one side of the case. The gen.
tleman from Kansas had said that what
he (Steele) did not know about the ma
uonal homes would fill a volume. That
might be true, Mr.. Steele said. but what
he did know about the matters brought
to the attention Of the House by Mr.. Blue
would MI a library. All these charges had
been investigated by the boards of mana
gers and subcommittee of the board.
Gov. Merrill was for three years men,
Der of the board, and as such, local man
ager OF the LeavenWOrth Home; Col.
Cooke, the present manager, has been a
member for two years. These, with Gen.
Pierson of Pennsylvania, had investigated
the charges to the bottom. and the gov
ernor had been indicated from them.
Mr.. Blue asked If there were not charges
against the home at Togus. Ne, represent
ing very serious condition of things.
Mr.. Steele-NOne that has not been refu-
ted, or that will not be.
While discussing the matter of beer sa-
looms or stores at the homes, Mr.. Steele
was asked by Mr. Mines, rep. of Michi-
gan, II II was the policy of the managers
to run saloon at one end Of the home and
a Kelley cure at the other.
Mr.. Steele replied that Ii was the policy
10 manage the home for the best interest
OF the inmates; The practical question
was whether the homes should have the
PROFITS of beer sales, or the saloons out
side, where the old soldier was not only
maze drunk DuL TODDeQ. Inc experience
at Marion. his own residence showed that
the policy of letting the saloons outside
have the trade was not TO the advantage of
the home
Mr.. Steele eulogized Mai. Birmingham
the treasurer of the board, and defended
him from the charges made by Mr.. Blue.
He was capable, honest and no man could
truthfully assert to the contrary. AS to
the charges that the buildings at the
homes. erected out of the beer money saw
ed by the men, were insured in a company
of which Gen. Franklin was an officer, Mr.
Steele stated that there were in all upon
in two companies of which Gen. Franklin
was a stockholder-both at his home, Hart
ford, Conn. Mr.. Steele conceded that in
his opinion, Gen. Franklin would be a
better man If he were a republican, but
that in the management of the home there
was no such thing as politics known.
Col. Smiths ability and character were
defended by Mr.. Poole. rep, of New York
and those of Gen. Franklin by Mr.. Henry,
rep, of Connecticut.
Mr.. Mahon, rep, of Pennsylvania offered
tion providing for an investigation of the
charges of drunkenness and brutality
against Col. Smith by joint congressional
commi sSion; if the charges be sustained
by majority of that commission the
board of managers to be directed to re-
move him from his position.
Mr.. Blue said he would reserve a point of
order against that amendment.
On motion by Mr.. Hull, the House. at
agreement having been reached between
him and Mr.. Blue that the vote on the
joint resolution should be taken at :
o'clock.

the boy was enveloped in the flame that
shot upward. An instant later, a
second explosion occurred, and this blew

in the debris and ins family killed. Young
Burre was hurled nearly twenty feet, his
clothing in flames and his face so badly
burned that it bore little resemblance to
that of human being. He was uncon-
sciOus when picked up, and died without
recovering consciousness, two hours later.
The explosions were so violent that the
glass in the windows OF the surrounding
buildings was shattered, and the employees
thrown into a panic. None was injured,
however, and after rescuing those who
were in the building in which the explo-
sion occurred, they assisted in extinguish-
ing the fire, which in a few minutes had
spread throughout the building.
The cause of the explosion is at present
unknown.
