FOUR KILLED AND MANY HURE:
Explosion. Fire. and Death at the Shooting ef
an OIL We'll.

TOLEDO, O., Sept. -Four men were killed
outright and a number badly injured by an e1-
plosiun Of nitro glycerine at Cygnet this eyon-
ing. The dead are John LansdAle. John Thomp-
son. Charles Cordell. and Allen Falls. Amone
the badly injured are Samuel Barber and Grant
Wilson. Many others were hurt.
The accident occurred at the shooting Of an
oil well. The we'll was in the centre Of the
town. Immediately in the rear OF the Ohio Oh
Comrany's warehouse.
Owing TO the proximity OF the building. care
full preparations we're made TO keep the oil from
spraying after the shot. A heavy casing head
was secured TO the top of the pipe. and IL was
expected 10 control the flow OF oil. which usually
is thrown high above the derrick when the
nitro-glycerine is exploded.
The shot was a hard one and the casing had
closed. but it was unable TO withstand the now.
The heavy iron was broken and the oil charged
with gas was sprayed IN every direction. A nro
was burning in the boiler ut the well and an eK-
plosion Immediately took place.
This in turn exploded some extra cana Of
glycerine standing in the shooters wagon. near
the derrick. and it was the force OF the latter
explosion that had the fatal effect.
The men killed were not employed at the well
but were bystanders. Barker, one of the injured
men, was the agent OF the Ohio and Indiana
Torpedo Company in charge OF the shooting.
He is q veteran in the business. and this 10 the
first accident he has met with. He is expected
10 recover.
Tho Ohio Oil Company's warehouse was en-
tirely consumed. The Ohio OIL Company is the
operating department OF the Standard Oh Com
pany in this district and has charge Of all
drilling and producing wells.
The company does not make any statement Of
it's loss, but as CyEnet was one OF its important
stations the loss is undoubtedly heavy. Cygnst
is a small place forty miles southeast OF Toledo.
and is exclusively an oil town.

The area Of the engineers conflict Is daily

to the bitter end. a letter written by Col. Dyer.

mined to free themselves entirely from the do
tation of the leaders OF trades unions.

Dyer il right in saying that the engineering
employers are determined TO obtain the free
dom to manage their own affairs which has

"Stearns" are known to every one who
knows what the word Bicycle means,
ami about everybody in the Islands
kntNws that we are the agents for these
three leading makes.
wa will not say much about the
"SteaEns" this time, as the lot of '97
wheeIt which left New York on Febru-
arv 1Gth, did not catch the Australia, -
and voN do not want TO hear about a

Won aboutl them when they get here.
But IL Won want a pretty mount, some

coma ouick !, rs we have sold over half
Of the lot iust treceived, and we are sure

We will Ia $e just forty-four CAD BIZ
cycles ON the Australia" when she gets
here ON March Both, and from that on
we don't think anybody will go by to
buv a wheel because we have not got
tue stock to show them.
Our Columbus" this year, as well
as our "Ramblers," are fitted with the
well-known G. & ]. tires. This tire has
proved TO be the best one ever used in
these Islands, and if you get the gen.
uine G.. & ]. tire you get what you need
for this climate and our roads. The
genuine G.. & J. tire is sold by the
Rambler Agency here, and is fitted
to wheels we order. You can get tires
that are said to be G.. & ]. and look
just the same, but you won't want more
than one pair; looks don't wear, you
know.
Points of interest to you will be the
way the spokes are fastened on the
"Columbias," the new special seat and
the handles and grips on the Ladies'
"Ramblers:" in fact, you will find lots
TO interest you, and you are welcome to
examine any wheel to your hearts con-
tent, even If you have no idea of buy

our stock of sundries-such as Lamps.
Bells. Luggage Carriers, Bike Stands.
