government and the officers continue

cial statements with the exception of a
denial of the extravagant utterances
of the Cologne Gazette and other usu-

this exceptional taciturnty lies in the
simple fact that Germany herself does
not know where she stands or how far
the other powers will permit her to go.
Germany, Russia and France are still
negotiating, and while there is strong
pressure To bring about another joint
action these powers in the far East,
equally potent influences are working
to Illustrate such plans.
1t depends largely upon the outcome
Of these negotiations as TO what in

AN EXPLOSION OF POWDER
A Sad Ending to Christmas
Celebration.
MADE THE EARTH TREMBLE
Forty People Blinded and Injured, Many
Of Them Seriously Thirty Pounds
of Powder Exploded in the
Midst of a Crowd.

of 100 or more men md buys We're fir
ing a Christmas salute from an old
cannon on he outskirts - town to-da y
when a can of so pounds of powder
exploded in the midst of the crowd.
Thirty or 40 persons were injured, but
none, it is believed, fatally.
The cannon was fired several times
and then Joseph Finch, an emnloye Of
the Southern Railway company, picked
up the powder can and began to reload
the piece. The gun had to be swabbed
and the moment the tiny stream of
powder struck the heated metal there
was a flash. and the powder exploded
with a report that made the earth
tremble Immediately there was a
scene that made sick the hearts of
those watching from a nearby hill. In
the smoke that rose from the explosion
they saw human beings running blind
~ here and there over the hill, falling
and rising only to fall again, as they
frantically rushed about. blinded and
powder burned, madly trying to ex-
tinguish their flaming clothes. Those
who were unhurt ran to the aid of the
unfortunate ones, smothering the fam
ing clothing or cutting the garments
from lnelT DDuleS. oHe man was
blown or rolled completely down the
high bluff, nearly 200 feet, to the river.
The people in the neighborhood ran
to the scene and the work of giving
assistance to the injured began. The
hill was dotted with blackened, groan-
ing figures, some of whom lay almost
perfectly nude A number or the in
jured were able TO walk from the scene
While cots were provided and gentle
hands placed the more seriously
wounded on them and conveyed them

improvised into a hospital.

John Finch is among the more seri-
ously hurt his nose and mouth being
torn out of all shape and he is probably
blinded. Clarence Ledford, who stood
near the cannon when the powder ig-
nited, was thown more than 80 feet.
His clothing was torn or burned off.
Charles Erwood and John 1ngie also
are seriously hurt. and others probably
will lose their sight or be disfigured for
life.

on the Lottery Question

The special committee Of the police
commission, Messrs. Gibbon, Wiman ami
Preuss. appointed to investigate the
Chinese lottery question, made visit
to the city Jail building yesterday morn
ing and held an informal conference
in Justice Owens court room. There
were present, besides, the commissioners
Justices Morrison and Owens and Pros
ecutng Attorney Chambers. Chief Glass
was later called in to the conference
and Mayor Snyder also dropped in near
the close of the proceedings.
The matter of the light fines imposed
upon the convicted Chinese lottery tick
ct dealers was fully gene into. and the
reason and agreement with the dis
trict attorneys office as to the amount
of fine when pleas CT guilty were en-
tered explained by Justice Owens and
Chief Glass. Justice Owens expressed
himself emphatically as in. favor of the
imposition of the maximum penalty, and
will assist by every means in his power
in crushing out the growing evil. The
question of the employment of special
attorney to prosecute cases in the police
court was also discussed. The commit
tee, of course, refused to give out any
of their conclusions for publication, but
will report to the full meeting on Tues
day, when vigorous methods of attack
will probably be recommended.

and better facilities the consumers would
get their vegeta bles and fruits cheaper
The committee assured the gentlemen
that the council wished to do everything
possible for them, and their wishes would
receive the most careful considera ton
The proposition for another market was
out of the question at this time, but they
would see if the stall rents could not be
reduced, ard an effort would also be
made to increase the facilities al the
present site. The market privileges
could not be restricted, but the hours
could be changed, if it was deemed ex-
pedient, and the request as to licenses
could probably be granted No decision
was arrived at, but the petition was re-
ferred to the city attorney, with instruc-
tions to draft an ordinance along the
lines proposed as far as it could be done
legally.
Health Officer Powers and Inspector of
Street Sweeping Mcclellan also appeared
before the committee in reference to the
recently appointed employe in their de-
partment. and had his duties defined.
After the transaction of some routine
business the committee adjourned.

THE LUCKY NUMBER
THE HOLDER OF 3168 OWNS A
FINE PIANO
Drawing Last Night for the Southern
California Music Co.'s Gift to
the Unemployed Fund

Some three hundred. guests of the
Southern California Music company fill
ed it's handsome hall last evening to wit
ness the exciting event of the drawing
for the fine piano presented by the COM
pany in aid of the unemployed fund.
MessSs. Hart, Brenner, Whitney ard
Day, of the Southern California Music
company were anxious to make sub
stantial offering to the Merchants arG
Manufacturers association fund and
finally hit upon the happy scheme of
presenting one of the finest rosewood
Shaw pianos. the retail price of which is
5000, to be raffied for at 10 cents ticket,
thus enabling the investors to combine
charity ard enterprise at the expense of
dime. The offer was gladly accepted
by the Merchants ard Manufacturers
associa tion and last night at o'clock the
final chance was taken.
AT o'clock, under the supervision. Of a
committee from the Merchants and Man
ufacturers' association, consisting of
Messrs. Fl. w. Frank and w. H. Knight,
little bNndfolded girl was deputied to
make the momentous drawing of the
lucky number from the many thousands
Appropriate remarks were made by
Messrs. Frank and Knight, and Mr.. Hart
of the Music company, in a. few well
chosen and eloquent remarks. declared
that the dearest wish of Mr. Hart's heart
was that the piano should find it's way to
some poor little girl who dreamed OF mu-
sic, but had no instrument on which to
express herself.
Amid am exciting silence the little i'm
personator of Fortuna made the fata'
drawing, and the number that she had
| picked out was declared to be
316S.
"Oh, Shaw" said lady In the audi
ence. She was not referring to the prize
piano. but to very close coincidence
| for she exhibited a ticket bearing the
next number-3167
| Another person solemnly drew line
across the printed number on his ticke
| and, penciling the winning number ovel
! it, presented it at the desk with orders
| to have it delivered at his house. 1t has
not arrived yet.

amount realized has paid for 647 days
work in the Elysian park.

sible to say If Mr.. Hart's' wish is entirely
realized. In any case, generous worl
has been done. There were no less thar
