HORRIBLY MUTILATED
By the Bursting Of a Tram Engine
Boiler in Texas,
SEVEN MEN INSTANTLY KILLED.

Six of These Were Decapitated by the Force
ofthe Explosion, and Three Others Were
So Seriously Injured That Their Lives
Are Despaired of.
WooDvILLE, Tex, June 23.-At Dou-
cette, three miles north of Woodville, yes
terday the tram engine boiler ~ the
Nebraska Lumber company exploded,
killing seven men outright and seriously
If not fatally injuring three others. 1t
seems that the engineer was just ready to
start for the log camp when the explosion
took place, some six or eight men being in
the cab. Six of these seven victims had
their heads entirely torn from their bodies
and were otherwise mutilated beyond
recognition.
The dead are: A. L. Doucette, president
of the Nebraska Lumber company; Grant
Hammerly, engineer; Charles Walworth,
section foreman; Charles Smith, section
hand; Wylie Sargent, mill hand; man
known about the mill as Frenchy, and
another unknown man.
The wounded are: Dan A. Harmon,
fireman, arms terribly lacerated and pain
fully scalded about the face and neck; d.
o. Sullivan, section hand, badly scalded,
and George Bowling, scalded about the
face and neck.
The reports Of just how the terrible ac-
cident happened are somewhat conflicting,
One report is that the engine had just left
Doucette and had jumped the track The
men crowded around to get the engine
back when the explosion occurred An
other report says the men were in the cab
when the accident occurred. The engine
was what is known as Shay, with the
machinery on one side and the drivers
propelled by cog wheels,
just what caused the explosion will
probably never be known. The water
which supplied the engine has been low
and muddy and the sediment is supposed
to have caked in the bottom of the boiler
until it became dangerous Another reason
given is that the engineer let his water get
low, with hot fire, and turned on the in
jector. An eye witness says he heard the
noise and squatted between the ties and
looked Iron flew through the sky like
shot and carried everything in its path.
The men who met death never knew what
killed them. A sharp report, a rain like
patter of iron and it was all over. Six of
the dead We're buried near the scene of
their death and the remains of Mr.. Dou-
cette were brought here and forwarded to
Orange.

CONSUL LEE ON CUBA.
An Interesting Letter from Our
Representative in Havana,
SPANISH ATROCITIES CONFIRMED.

The Consul General Declares There Is
Abundant Evidence to Confirm the
Charges-Believes That Peace Cannot be
Made Short of Absolute Independence.
WASHINGTON, June pa very interest
ing letter was received yesterday by a rela-
tive from General Fitzhugh Lee. 1t was
written on the 12th, and deals fully with
Cuban affairs. The Spanish authorities,
the general says, have treated him with
great courtesy, and Captain General Wey-
Ter has granted every request thus far pre-
ferred, even allowing him to visit the
prisons were the captured Americans are
confined.
OF the Spanish troops, he says, they are
fairly well drilled, but under n system of
tactics and manual totally different from
any the general had ever seen
As to the insurgents, they practically
have control of the island. Their ennis
saries come in and go out of the towns
and cities as they will, and he believes the
entire native population is in sympathy
with them. As to the inhumanity of the
Spanish commanders. General Lee ex-
presses himself in the plainest terms.
"They do not regard the laws of modern
war nor the usages customary among
civilized nations at all, - he says.
"From every quarter there is the same
testimony concerning the barbarities of
the Spanish soldiers. Some of the evil
dence 1 have heard would be beyond be-
lief did l not know it to be the most reli-
able. Violations of women, the plunder
of inoffensive citizens, murder, every form
of rapine, is the invariable story of prison
ers and natives of the island who happen
to be under suspicion, and it takes very
little, indeed, here to place you under sus-
picion."
General Lee doubts ifpeace will be made
now short of a basis of absolute indepen-
dence and freedom from Spanish control.
