Overhead Wires.
Grantland. "a. september

Grantland, Va. September .. 1897
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
1 see from your editorial OF this morn
ing that you are interested in the over
head wires" OF Richmond.
Let me offer a few practical sugges-
tons. well tried and beyond the expert
mental stage. that l have seen in per-
feet working order in other cities.
In Dresden, Germany, there is a first
class electric road-overhead trolley and
storage battery combined. The cars are
about the same as the best of those
of the Richmond Traction Company.
They also run "trailers" during the busy
hours of the day. The trolley is used
only In the suburbs. and In places
where the overhead wire would not be
Objectionable. Within the city. particu-
larly the business streets, the trolley
Is fastened down by the usual strap.
and then the current from the storage
battery il turned on. AS my college
German has become "ausgespielt,"
could not ask questions concerning the
working particulars Of this road, but any
one interested can no doubt post himself
While upon this subject of street-cars,
let me ask one question:: Why do we
pay as much to ride SEQ yards as we do
TO ride fourteen miles? In the great
cities Of Europe, and even in the small
cities of Africa, the roads are divided
into sections, and the charge is generally
only 2 cents per section. and one pays
according to what he receives, as In other
lines of business
The hills of Richmond might be over
come by the overhead wire, as at present,
say from Fourteenth TO the Dis
patch corner, and from Seventh to Fifth
street, then the storage battery for the
business portion of the city.
In several cities we saw them putting
telegraph and telephone wires under
ground-laying large cables I'm common.

Efficient work by the Fire Department

abled the department this morning to
same the main portion OF the Beaure-
gard School building. only the annexes
Of the structure were reduced to ashes.
The alarm was sounded at 1870 A. VI.
After the mass-meeting Of citizens held
last night a riotous crowd Of people
gathered around the building and open
~ threatened that at the first opportu-
nifty they would fire IT,
Throughout yesterday evening Sister
Agnes and number Of Sisters OF
Charity. together with help from the
hospital, had been putting the building
in order for the reception Of yellow
fever patients. The School Board, in
the mean time had removed from the
building every desk and other article Of
furniture. and the hospital people had
moved into the building cots and other
necessary adjuncts for the treatment OF
yellow-fcver patients.
hospital the sisters, and others had been
warned that they had best leave the
building. They did 50, headed by Sister
Agnes, and threaded their way through
a dense crowd Of panic-stricken citizens
Then a small force Of police was or
dercd to the scene. But the members of
the mob, bent on incendiarism, were
sharper than the guards. and, while the
police were busily engaged I'm attempt
ing TO quel the riotous crowd i'm front Of
the building. two incendiaries. with a
hve-gallon can Of OIL proceeded to the
rear and quickly had the building in
flames.
An alarm was turned in. but the first
neighboring engine had scarcely arrived
when its hose was cut. When other en-
gines arrived their hose was also de-
stroyed by the mob. Chief Caster and
Captain Journee finally arrived in a
patrol wagon, with a big e7uad of Off
GERS, which beat the mob back. Then
the fremen went actively TO work and
succeeded in preventing the absolute de-
struction of the building
The action Of the mob is rOundly de-
nounced on all sides this morning. The
school was a handsome building, entire
ly isolated and situated in the centre of

infection from II. and the people In the

he could not permit testimony on this
point dating back farther than week.
The witnesses for the defence who were
TO testify regarding the intent OF Mrs.
Luetgert to Leave her home had heard
her make the threats several months
prior to MAY 1st. and the Court threw
out their evidence. Tomorrow the de-
fence will make a strong effort to get
the Court to alter his ruling on this
point.
The fact that Juror william Harley
was indicted in 1857 for conspiracy and
bribery in connection with the Cook
County Commissioner scandal was drag
ged to the front to-day. There are now
no cases pending against Juror Harley,
and he was never put on trial on the
indictments against him. State's-Attor-
ney Deneen said tonight that he had
known for a month about the former
charges against Juror Harley Had
been fully advised at the time he was

A TERRIBLE EXPLOSION.
Miners Killed and WOunded-NO Es-
cape Shaft.

ST. LOUIS, MO, September PA spe-
cial to the Post-Dlspatch from Marion,
Ill. says: An explosion terrible in its
effects, occurred in the Williamson
County Coal Company's mines, four
miles north of here, to-day. Fifteen
wounded miners, two OF whom have
since died. have been rescued, while one
was found dead when the rescuing
party went down the shaft Several os
the wounded are so severely crushed
and otherwise hurt that they will die.
There are said to be five or six miners
still imprisoned in the burning mine,
but they cannot be reached on account
of the smoke and fire. These men are
no doubt dead before this time, as
there is no means of escape for them,
the mine not having been provided with
the usual escape shaft
Most of the men killed and wounded
are Russians and Italians, and IL Is inn
possible to get their names at this hour.
The force of the explosion was tre-
mendous, as II blew one of the mine
mules over 200 yards along the main
entry and into the big dump at the bot
tom of the shaft. which IS $50 feet deep.
The cages are being run UP and down
the shaft as fast as the engines can
force them, for the purpose of combining
the flames in the entry, and thus pre-
venting them from coming up the shaft
and setting fire to the timbers and
buildings at the mouth Of the pit.
The explosion was no doubt caused
by natural gas. Of which there is a
good deal in this mine. taking fire from
the miners lamps when the men de-
scended as they started for work this
