Yesterdays RAIN.


A Steady Downpour Throughout the Day
and Night.
Yesterdays rain was very heavy, and
it was the peculiarly disagreeable, pen
etrating sort, which increases the at
Effectiveness of home, and makes pedes-
trianism and comfort incompatible. The
rain fell in a constant downpour Sun
day morning and with brief intermis-
sions, throughout the entire day. From
seven o'clock last night until two
o'clock this morning it was heaviest.
While no information on the subject
could be secured last night, it is prob
able that the rain did considerable
damage in the way of flooding low
lying lands in the suburbs, and in slips
upon railroad property. The rain APP
pears to have been general over wide
territory, and the river is reported ris-
ing at all points above. The rise will
be more rapid to-day, and will reach a
point which VIII enable the floating of
coal from Pittsburg to the South.

COL. srREATOR COMPROMISES
The Criminal Charges Brought Against

The Criminal Charges Brought Against
Him-Some Comkaent.
Col. J. B. r. Streator was in better
frame of mind after Constable Thomas
visited him at the MoLure early yes
terday morning, and required him to
make cash deposit to guarantee his
appearance when the cases were called
in Justice Fitzpatrick's court. During
the day he expressed regret concern
ing the incident, and compromised the
matter with Mr.. Crawford by paying
for the umbrella, and settling the
costs in the criminal proceedings.
Col. Streator was evidentely pleased to
learn that Mr.. Crawford had enlisted
in the National Guard, and expressed
the hope that he would meet him again
during the progress of the war. Mr..
Crawford left to join his company last
night
The fact OF MIR. Crawford inability
to secure warrant at police headquar-
tiers, caused a great deal of comment
throughout the city, not because of any
especial degree of interest in this par
ticular case, but because of the deplor-
able state Of affairs which it reveals.
There is something radically wrong in
this method of conducting the police
department, and it should be remedied.
It is not asserted that any official is to
blame, but the loophole which is afford
ed to violaters of the law through this
system, is apparent to every citizen.

NATURAL GAS EXPLOSION.
At the Whitaker Mill Created ConSid-
cradle Excitement
yesterday Afternoon. but Did No
Serious Damage-TwOM Men Were
slightly Burned by the Flames.
Report Heard All Over the City.
Other Casualties Of q More or
Less Serious Nature.

The city was startled yesterday
afternoon by a very loud report, which
was evidently caused by an explosion.
1t was heard distinctly in nearly every
part OF the city. AS usual, wild ru-
mors were set in circulation, and when
1t was known that the explosion took
place at the Whitaker mill, it was re-
ported that it had been attended with
fatal results.
The explosion was caused by a
lighted torch coming into contact with
escaping gas. 1t appears that the gas
under boilers at the mill was turned
On but had not been lighted A work
man was passing through that de-
partment, carrying in his hand a
lighted torch, and passed so close to
the boilers that the escaping gas
ignited and exploded with a deafening
report. The bricks supporting the
boilers were blown out, and no other
damage was done.
Only two workmen were in the
vicinity at that time, Lee Dunning
and William Low. Both were slightly
burned by the flames, but escaped
serious injury.
Edward Wilson, a boy aged IA years,
who lives with his parents on South
Main street, Fifth ward, was playing
on top of B. & O. freight cars on the
South Side, yesterday afternoon, and
was badly injured No bones were
broken, but the attending physician is
fearful that internal injuries have been
sustained and that they may result
seriously.
Miss Rose Carroll, of Benwood, was
badly burned yesterday. She had been
cleaning gloves with gasoline and at
tempted to throw the rag which she
had been using into the fire. The fire
ignited with the gasoline moistened
gloves and burned her hands terribly.
DR.. Downing was called, and gave her
what medical relief he could

The A. P. A. And Their Oath

The oaths and ritual that was
first given to the order, and which
has since been 80 amended as to
be more vicious and venamous.
The following oaths and ritual
we're taken from an article OF
Thos. JEFF Jenkins, published in
the Catholic World August, 1893,
and obtained by him from a docu.
ment published by R. L. Quack-
enbush, an ex. A. P. A., sworn and
subscribed to before John Herr,
Notary Public, Scott County, Iowa.
Only the first scroel and the last
of the five oahts are given.
Declaration of Principles.-I, 90
and so, hereby declare that 1 am q
firm believer in q Deity. ! am moi
member of the Roman Catholic
church, nor have I any sympathy
with Roman Catholicism; that in
my opinion no Roman Catholic
should be allowed any part or par
eel in the control or occupy any
position in our public schools; on
the contrary, I realize that the in
situations of our country are in
danger of the Vaccinations of the
church of Rome. / believe that
only by the removal of Roman
Catholics from Office of trust can
justice. right, and true American
sentiment be fully subserved. and
that by the concerted and contin-
ued efforts of the lovers of Ameri-
can liberty only, can such results
be contaminated and continued.
pledge myself to defend the
government of the United States
and the State in which l reside
against the invasion, disorder, tre-
ason or rebellion, either by eccle-
siastical, local or foreign foe, and
