TERRIFIC EXPLOSION.
THREE MEN BLOWN TO
ATOMS-TEN INJURED.
Was at Dynamite MISREPRESENTATION
of tho Explosion Felt for Miles Around
-Remains OF the Dead Men Gathered
Up In Two Buckets.

PHILADELPHIA, March 81 - Three
men were blown to atoms and ten
other people injured by an explosion
of nitro glycerine at the Repauno
chemical works, near this city. The
dead are: James Hamilton, aged 80
years; Charles Wright, aged 95, and
j. Il. Stiles aged rs. All were mar
ried.
The explosion occurred at 1924
o'clock, when the workmen were re-
turning from dinner Most of them
had not reached their posts, or the loss
Of life would probably have been
greater. The concussion was felt for
miles around, and plasterer at work
on scaffolding three-quarters of a
mile away was thrown Meanwhile
corps of men was put to work among
the ruins and, after much. search, the
mutilated remains of the three vic
tims were gathered into two buckets.
Wright was identified by ring on one
of the fingers, and Stiles by his
shoulders, from which the head as
well as the lower part of the body had
been torn.
The explosion was of such terrific
force that, beside totally destroying
the two houses, it tore a hole fully
eighty feet long and twenty-five feet
wide in the ground upon which they
had stood.
The cause is assigned to excessively
iigh temperature in one of + houses,
quantities of the explosiv. being in
both at times

WASHINGTON, March 27.-Four Dem
ucratic members of the House, it is
understood, will vote for the Dingley
tariff bill. Three of the four are in
the Louisiana delegation and the other
is from Texas. The Louisiana men are
induced to vote for protection mainly
on account of the sugar schedule
of the bill, which meets their approval,
while the wool schedule has won the
Ynember from Texas. There are six
tuambers of the Louisiana delegation,
oil of whom are in favor of protection
on sugar. In order that they may put
themselves on record on this policy
they may offer an amendment to the
sugar schedule, or a substitute for it,
embodying the rates which they de-
sire

Decline to Be Party to the Blockade
of Grecian Ports-Crown Prince Con-

Army In Thessaly.

ATHENS, March 27.-It is asserted
here that in consequence of the refusal
of Lord Salisbury to join in a blockade
of Greek ports, Germany has given no.
tice to the powers of her intention to
withdraw from the concert
The royal decree appointing the
Crown Prince Constantine to the com
mand of the army on Thessaly frontier
was published yesterday. The Crown
Prince will start to assume his COM
mand this evening, going by sea to
Volo and thence by railway. The
Crown Princess will accompany him as
far as Larissa, where she will inspect
the arrangements made by the Red
Cross society. She will remain there
two days and then return to Athens.
In order to avoid popular demonstra
tions this proclamation has not been
published in Athens.
The bombardment of Malaxa has
produced a painful impression here.
The newspapers are filed with indig-
nant protests. The Cretan delegates
in Athens have published a pamphlet
in English of protest against autonomy
and declaring that they prefer the OF
toman yoke, just as they did after the
failure of the insurrection in 1866.
The pamphlet closes with the declara-
ton: THE Cretans will die if neces-
sary for the sake of the cause of union
with Greece"
CANEA, March 27.-The Christians
tried to build earth works on the hills
above Malaxa, but they were bonn
barded by the foreign warships. In
add dition to continuing the work of
burning the property of Mussulmans
at Perivolia, the Christians have at
tackled the village of Darabos, and
have begun to lombard the fortress of
Butounaria, which protects the springs
supplying Canea with water.

HAS SPAIN QUIT?
A Report That She Has Given Up the
War in Cuba.

WASHINGTON, March EFT is an
open secret in diplomatic circles that
Spain has practically abandoned the
effort to crush the Cuban insurrection-
lists. The tottering monarchy is at the
end of its string, and Cuban indepen-
dence is in sight. Forces stronger
than the waning political and military
power of that decaying empire have
compelled Spanish statesmen to choose
which they will save-Cuba or the
Philippines-and the decision is in
favor of the latter.
The war in Cuba has now reached
the negotiation stage. The question
of the future is as to whether the peo-
pie of the island will buy their indie
pendence or win it by the sword. They
may easily do either Information
warranting these statements has been
received here within the past few
days. 1t is well understood in the
higher diplomatic circles that the end
in Cuba is near. Within short time
the Spanish government will initiate
negotiations with the United States
looking to a settlement of the Cuban
trouble.

COLLAPSED LIKE BUBBLES.

Every Trahic Combine In Kansas City
Has Gone to Pieces.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, March 27.-All
the railroad associations in Kansas
City which directly or indirectly have
had anything to do with freight or
passenger rates are dead. The decision
of the supreme court in Transmits
souri, case caused them to collapse like
bubbles. Every road is acting inde-
pendently and it is the shippers own
fault if he does not now secure fair
rates. The break in rates which is
expected to result in disastrous
war between the railroads, may occur
any day. The strong lines are watch
ing each other closely and the weak
lines, which were formerly given a
percentage in the western tonnage
pool, are getting out their knives pre-
paratory to slashing rates. Local rail
road men admit that the only saliva
tion for them is in the passage by Con-
gress of the Patterson bill, which pro-
poses to legalize pooling. If this law
is enacted all the collapsed associations
will be Immediately reorganized.

MALMGREN A SUICIDE.
Missing Kansas Sheriff Ends His Life
with u Bullet.


KANSAS CITY, March 24.-The body
of a tall, heavy man, undoubtedly that
of Jacob Malmgren, the missing sheriff
of Saline county, Kansas, was found
still warm, in a box car at the Rex
mill, west of Toad-a-Loup, about 10
o'clock a. m. yesterday. The man had
shot himself in the right temple with
3s-caliber revolver. The revolver
was still gripped in his right hand,
and the end of the box car was spat-
tered and splashed with his life's
blood.
The mans pockets were searched.
Annual railroad passes good over the
Rock Island, the Santa Fe, the Mis-
souri, Pacific and Union Pacific roads
were found in pass book on which
was stamped: Compliments of the
Farmers National Bank, Salina, Kan. !"
All the passes were made out to Jacob
Malmgren, sheriff of Saline county.
The body is that of man about,6 feet
tall and weighing about 200 pounds.
The features are heavy, and he wore a
large white Stetson hat, size 79s. He
was dressed in plain suit of dark

Far r-Rea ching Eject of the Trans Mis-
sOurl Decision.

Far Reac ching Eject of the Trans Mis-
souri, Decision.
New YORK, March 27.- The far
reaching effect of the United States
supreme courts decision in the Trans
missouri freight association case is be-
ginning to dawn upon persons inter-
ested in pools and combinations of
various sorts. The view grows general
that the supreme court has struck a
vital blow at every form of trust and
combination under the terms of the
Sherman antitrust law, which is sus-
tanned by the decision. They say that
the combination among the anthracite
coal producing and carrying companies,
commonly called the Coal Trust, is il
legal 1t is claimed that freights on
hard coal are the highest on any com
modify in the country. This toll is
fixed by the combination.
Another big combine which, it is
claimed, runs counter to this decision
of the Supreme court, is the pooling
arrangement between the General
Electric and the Westinghouse Elec-
trio companies.
Frederick w. Whitridge, counsel for
the reorganization committee of the
Reading railroad, speaking of the
Supreme court decision, said ''If it is
penal offense under the Sherman
antitrust law for railroads to pool
traffic, how about the labor organiza
tions-the Knights of Labor, the
American Railway Union, the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers and
Firemen and the other railroad labor
organizations"

TO END TARIFF TINKERINC
Republican Senators Hope to Settle the
Issue for Years.

Republican Senators Hope to Settle the
Issue for Years
WASHINGTON, March 27.-The theory
upon which the Republican members
of the Senate finance committee are
proceeding in their consideration of
the Dingley tariff bill in advance of it's
passage through the House, is thus ex-
plained by one of their number: The
purpose of the committee will be to re-
port such bill as will be fair to every
American interest and be of such a
character that no considerable portion
of the people will want further tariff
changes for the next ten or fifteen
years
l1"What the business interests of the
country want and what the people de-
mand," said the senator, lis something
like a permanent settlement of the
tariff question and freedom from the
continual agitation and disturbance
which we have had for the past fifteen
years If we can give the country
o fair tariff law, one which will
lection to all our great indus
trial interests, and which will
furnish the government with sufficient
revenue to meet current expenditures
and provide comfortable surplus,
there will follow an immediate re-
vival of business, and general prosper
ity, which will embrace all people, will
le insured. The accomplishment of
that object is far more important than
the saving of few million dollars
that might come from speedy passage
of a crude measure through temporary
plethora of merchandise imported to
save the additional duties.

TRENTON, Mo-, March @7.-About / 1
o'clock last night some one went to the

and called him out. He soon returned,

Shanty Coyle. The woman is motor
rious character and her name has been

Committee Call on the Speaker.
WASHINGTON, March 27-The mem
bers of the committee on legislation
which was appointed by the Indianap-
oils monetary convention called on
Speaker Reed to-day and talked with
him concerning legislation for cur
rency and banking reform.
Mr.. Reed told the committee that
congress moved faster than the people
in matters of legislation, and when
public sentiment became crystalized
in favor of any particular form of
financial legislation congness would
be apt to respond with little delay. If
the people demanded changes in the
banking system and brought pressure
to bear on congress they would secure
changes.
