PROSPECTS OF THE GREAT NORTHERN.


President James ]. Hill. Of the Great Northern
Railway. who is to leave here for st. Paul to-day.
said yesterday:
We do not contemplate any extension Of our line
There rate controversies pending between
our road and the Northern Pacific Railway. In
fact. practically had any There have
been rate complications the Pacific Coast in
volving all transcontinental lines, but these,
trust. may now be considered settled. AS to the
maintenance of rates, can only say We have no
reason to do otherwise than maintain rates.
The Supreme Court Of the United States has de-
clared consolidation between the Great Northern
and the Northern Pacific would be illegal and
there is nothing to be looked for in that direction
In fact. we ceased considering the project over
three months / think the Northern Pacific
reorganization plan will succeed Its promoters
conservative and have marked the interest charges
down. We are entirely satisfied to have the North
Pacific security hoders the road and pay its
debts and be charged with the responsibility of
meeting all proper obligations rather than have it
operated by officers of two or three courts con-
stantly contending for jurisdiction.
No doubt the handling of the crop last autumn
interfered with ploughing but even If this had
not been the case, 1t Is impossible that the coming
season could produce crop equal in quantity to
sown, because last years was about equal to two
crops In one harvest, owing to the phenomenal yield
Of wheat 10 the acre. Consequently less wheat will
go into market from the Northwest this year than
last

The BALTIMORE AND OHlOS CONDITION.
President John X. Cowen. Of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad. who also is of the receivers OF
the road said yesterday of his inspection of the
system
We found the roadbed and tracks in first-rate
dition The railroad shops are all working full time
repairing engines and cars fast possible,
to be ready for the business this summer and our
agents everywhere said that the traffic would be
ready for the equipment 1t could handle
It. The mineral wealth In the West Virginia and
pennsylvania territory pierced by the Baltimore
and Ohio and its branch lines can alone be made to
furnish enough traffic to pay the expenses of the
whole system.
The company wants seventy-fve locomotives and
about 5000 freight-cars. and soon bids
ceived an award will speedily be reached and the
work OF building the additional equipment will
service. but few of them are designed for fast
passenger trains 1t Is not expected that any more
changes will soon be made in the official staff of the
company but general effort Is in progress to place
the railroad In shape to hanGSe a heavy amount of
traffic and to get the business speedily as posi-

Fatal Boiler Explosion Thursday Afternoon
N a Pennsxlxauiu Town.

M hTehhsyivhuihI pWhs
Danville, Pa. Oct. o. The number
Of persons killed in last nights boiler
explosion,in the Montour rolling mill
department OF the Reading Iron Co. is
greater than at first reported. 1t was
thought that John Casselman, who was
buried beneath the debris, and child
of John Lungusgi were the only vic
Tins, but Thomas Cromwell, Oliver
Cromwell and John Mullen, ST., who
we're also buried beneath the debris.
died soon after thoy were removed to
their homes.
The accident was tho most disastrous
that has occurred in this vicinity for
SO years. There were hair breadth
escapes and remarkable deaths. Sitting
in her home, 300 feet from the mill,
with her l4-months-old babe in hIe
arms, was Mrs. John Lunguski. A
large section of the wrecked boiler
came crashing through the window
and. striking the child. tore the little
one from its mothers arms, killing it
instantly. The woman was uninjured.
The home of John Burns, more than a
hundred yards from the mill, was
almost completely wrecked by large
piece Of the boiler passing through. the
side of the house. Fortunately all OF
the inmates escaped injury. Three
other persons who were at work in the
mill at the time Of the explosion, are
probably fatally injured. They are
Robert Reid, Rush lerrick and Clinton
Major. All three were terribly scaded
by.escaping steam and Major is badly
cut about the head, while Reid and
Yerrick are bruised from being hit by
flying timbers. In all about so persons
were hurt.
The cause Of the explosion is not
known, but it is supposed to have been
due to low water in the boiler. The
dead. with the exception Of the child,
were all employed in the mill. The
building in which the boiler was
located was wrecked.

Peach trees are now requiring atten-
tion says the Milford Chronicle. This
is the best season to properly fertilize
them. In Western Maryland, whore
very fine fruit is grown. as soon as the
crop is off the trees, light coat of hard
wood ashes is applied to the roots Of
the trees. Experienced growers in
Western Maryland consider this the
best treatment for their trees. 1t is
a question we are unable to decide,
however, about its being the best for
trees on our soil. 1t is the opinion
that iron il the proper fertilizer for
trees in Delaware. How to apply IL,
however, the most effectively, is the
unaolved question.

| Murphy. He alleged that it was under
stood when the Laurada left Philadel-
phia that trip was to be made to the
West Indies, and 40 far as stopping
here was concerned 1t cut no figure
in the case. He interpreted the stop
| ping here as move to throw the govern
ment officers off the trail. He cited
authorities TO show that all the COM
missioner must decide was as to
whether there was probable cause
Mr.. Vandegrift commended that the
greatest part of preparing and setting
on foot an expedition was when crew
was shipped il Philadelphia for
Jamaica and the subsequent movements
Of the Laurada in the Delaware bay and
river.
Measrs. Gray and Ward made a short
argument, in which they contended
that the cause could not be removed.
