FIREBUGS AT ABERDEEN.
They Light Two buildings Simu1ta-
neousiy, But the Flames Are
Quickly Subcued.

Special Dispatch 10 the Post-Intelligencer.
ABERDEEN. Wash, June s.-An alarm
OF fire was turned in at / o'clock yesser-
day and an old vacant building on River
street. near the Pacific hotel, was found
to be on fire in several places, plainly
showing the work of a firebug. The hose
companies arrived promptly and soon had
the fire under control. without much dam
age having been done.
Later 1t was learned that fire had been
started In the old cannery building on the
east side OF the Wishkah river AT the same
time, but the fire was discovered by some
fishermen. who formed themselves into a
bucket brigade and succeeded in putting it
out without sending In an alarm.
The first fire was evidently started TO at
tract attention and allow the cannery
building 10 burn, there was lot OF fish
boats and fishing gear stored there. and
evidently that was what they wished to
destroy. Mayor Maliey has offered a re-
ward Of 500 for the arrest and conviction
of the parties.

Passengers on Street Cars and
Cause Wild Excitement

CHICAGO, June S.-A match dropped
carelessly by one Of the workmen in the
fireworks factory of NJ. Shure, at West
Van Buren and Halsted streets. caused 4
terrific explosion few minutes after 6
o'clock tonight. 1t was shortly after the
Closing time OF the factory, and many of
the workmen had gone home otherwise
the loss OF life must have been very
heavy. AS it was number OF the en-
ployes were badly hurt. and flying rockets
and candles struck several people who
were passing in street cars and on the
sidewalks. Mrs. Maggie Kenney was
struck by horse and died in the hos
pital. Fourteen persons were severely
and eleven slightly injured.
The force Of the explosion was so great
that nearly al the windows in the block
were demolished and the Shure building,
which is four-story structure. was
badly damaged. Immediately following
the explosion the building was ablaze
from cellar to roof, aud the fire depart
ment had desperate struggle before 1t
succeeded in extinguishing the flames.
The building was almost entirely de-
stroyed by fire, and such portions of the
large stock of fireworks as had not been
scattered throughout the neighborhood
by the explosion were destroyed, caus-
ing heavy loss to Shure.
The explosion caused a panic In that
portion of the town for a time. and the
widest stories were current regarding the
number OF killed and wounded 1t hap
poned at a time when the street was
crowded with people on their way to their
homes and the street cars which pass
in front Of the building every minute.
were densely crowded with passengers.
he flying missiles from the factory struck
9 number OF people on the cars. and enc
man who was gazing into a store window
fully 400 feet distant, had his attention
suddenly attracted to other matters by a
rocket which hit him squarely In the bae Elk.
He fell 10 the sidewalk unconscious. and
was carried TO the hospital before he was
able to give his name. The majority of
those injured. however. received but
trifIing wounds, and will be around with
In y day or two.
The loss TO the builG.ng and contents Is
estimated at 500 go.

soTTH BEND. Wash. June At has
beesa discovered that the leaves In the rec-

contain a cop,s OF the bond of ex-Coanty

deposit in the First National bank when 1t

quite a figure in the last eiection. as al
OF the bondsmea were prominent and in
fuentissl men IL the county.
The case was TO have come up for trial
al the July term. and both sides had re-
peateJIy expressed a desire to have no
further delay. The attorneys for the
bondsmen say that they are much put out
by the loss Of the bond, az they had in
tended TO prove by IL that the amounts for
which two Of the aondsuneu had qualified
had been doubled without their knowledge
and the figures raised. IT Is generally be-
Eeyed. however. that the record was de-
stroysd In their interest, though whether
IL was done with their knowledge or con-
sent Is question Yet TO be settled.
The county clerk says that the leaves
must have been cat out BY some one who
slipped into the vault where the records
are kept, while he and his deputy were
temporarily out OF the office. The work
shows that II was done in haste, and also
that IL was doe very recently. While
certain persons are strongly suspected.
there are no strong clues.
While the deed has aroused consider
able indignation. and there Is a general
desire TO have the offender severely pun
ished, yet IT is thought that the destruc-
ton OF the records viii have little bear
ing on the case in court, az Mr. STRAIT
ton. who instituted the suit, took the
precaution to have some certified copies
OF the bond made, and he has one and
the present county attorney. T.. V. Rice,
has another OF these copies.

Dixreputable Theaters.

Special Dispatch TO the Post-Intelligencer.
SPOKANE. Wash. June S.--After hear
ing testimony. the city council today re-
voked the licenses heretofore granted to
the Peoples and Comioue variety theaters
and two dance hall licenses. The holders
OF the licenses made no defense.
The investigation came up on the COM
plant Of Mayor Olmstead that these
places were being conducted in a disrepu-
table manner. and IN violation of a city
ordinance prohibiting the employment Of
women where intoxicating liquors are sold.
John Considine. Of the Peoples, and
Manager Miller, of the Comique. say they
will close their theaters this evening per-
manently.
This evening all OF the houses started
up. but all closed as soon as the notice
OF the councils action was served upon
them by Chief OF Police Hawthorne, ex-
cept the Peoples thSater. Here neither
John nor Tom Considine could be found
and the employees refused TO accept SER
vice. Finally the chief announced from
the stage that the theater was closed. and
warned the performers not TO appear.
Under the advice OF their attorneys the
performances went on just the same. The
city authorities say complaints will be
drawn and arrests made tomorrow. A
hard fight is assured.
