OIL TANK EXPLODES.
Accident Yesterday at the Kfngan
Packing House,

A peculiar explosion occurred at the
plant of Kingan & Co., Limited, yesterday
afternoon. 1t was terrific in force, but
caused little damage and no injury to the
employees. The big oil tank which holds the
supply of crude petroleum used for fuel ex-
ploded. The tank is located on the river
bank, remote from buildings. 1t is large
enough to hold the contents of four or five
car tanks, and from these it is filled.
About o'clock the employees of the es-
adjustment and people living within sew
eral blocks of the place were startled by a
loud report 1t was quickly located as COM
Ing from the tank by the fire which broke
out following the explosion. The oil caught
fire and ran a mass of flames about the
ground. There was some little wooden
work about the tank and a small shed
standing near. These were licked up like
flash, but there was nothing more for the
flames to consume, and the fire satisfied it
self with the oil and went out
The cause of the explosion is somewhat
of q mystery. There were in the tank
about $1,000 gallons of oil, said to be
small proportion of the amount the tank
would hold. The only theory is that gas
was generated from the oil. The head of
the tank was blown loose, but did not burst
out entirely The loss is confined to the
value of the oil and tank.

ROPE AROUND HIS NECK
WAYNE TOWNSHIP FARMERS MADE
A CHICKEN THIEF CONFESS.
Smith Payne, COIored, ShOt-WhOle-
sale Raids by indianapolis Men
stopped for ~ While.

Smith Payne, a colored man, well known
TO the police, is locked up at the county
Jail on a charge of grand larceny. He is
suffering from gunshot wounds in the hand
and leg He received them at the hands Of
an angry farmer, who caught him shortly
after he had robbed a poultry house of a
neighbor.
For some weeks farmers in Wayne town
ship have been losing chickens by the
wagonload. Several times hogs were taken.
The thieves always came out from the city
in a spring wagon, and usually went back
with good load of poultry or other small
stock. e,The visits of the thieves were
usually made twice a week. on Tuesday and
Friday nights. The people of the vicinity
organized themselves into committee to
catch the thieves. They divided themselves
into squads and kept nightly watch for the
thieves. Wednesday night Weaver Davis,
William Davis, E. E. Foudry and Thomas
Croan were on watch, and they met two
men driving toward the city along the Os-
terman road, about seven miles west of the
city. The men were colored and had
wagonload of chickens. The COMMITTEE"
called on the men to stop, but instead the
men jumped from the wagon and ran into
the woods.
The posse pursued, firing several shots at
the thieves. William Davis was near one of
the men, and narrowly missed being hit by
a. bullet from the thief's pistol. He returned
the fire with his shotgun and brought the
fellow down. The other thief escaped.
The captured man proved to be Smith
Payne. He was bound with ropes and put
through a sweat-box" ordeal by the farm
ers who wanted to learn the name of his
companion. He at first said he did not
know him, but when he felt rope about
his neck and heard threats that he was to
be lynched he said the other fellows name
was "Alf," but insisted he did not know
him by any other name Yesterday morn
ing the farmers brought Payne into the city
and turned him over to the police. Payne
confessed everything to the detectives.
He told them he had made several
trips into the country on chcken-steal-
ing expeditions, and also told them where
he had sold some of the stolen fowls. From
the information obtained from him the de-
tectives expect to effect the arrest of the
other man.
The spring wagon captured by the farm
ers contained chicken coops, and in them
were found los chickens that had just been
stolen from George Gladden's poultry
house. 1t is believed Payne had hand in
the recent raids on poultry houses in West
indianapolis, when several hundred chick
ems were Stol IN.

MUNCIE, Ind, March 10.-The decision

HEAVY FINES TO BE COLLECTED.
Oil Men VIII Appeal to United States
Supreme Court.


Supreme Court.
Special to the indianapolis Journal
ANDERSON, Ind, March 1O.-The deci-
sion of the Supreme Court of the State up
holding the right Of enjoining oil operators
from wasting gas, and also upholding the
penalty Of $40 a day. is received in this
county, from which the cases were taken on
appeal, with great deal of satisfaction.
The decrease in the gas pressure has been
so marked in the northern part of the coun-
ty, where the greatest wastes were, that it
became a matter of concern to those who
were employed or had money invested in
industries which depend so largely upon
natural gas production. The decision comes
Late however, for much of the damage has
been done. Prosecutor Seaman and Merrill
MooreS, the assistant attorney general, are
at work preparing injunctions which will be
filed at once against the operators in this
county. Mr.. Moores has already finished
this work in Delaware county. Steps will
be taken Immediately to collect the fines
which have accrued on wells which have
been wasting gas in this county. On one or
two of them the fines have accumulated
up to point as high as $1,000, and it is an
nounced to-day that the oil men will have
the case will be taken to the United States
Supreme Court, and will be fought to the
last. 1t is undoubtedly one of the most i'm
portant decisions thus far made against the
operations of the great Standard Company
and the smaller concerns.

VETERAN SOLDIER DROWNED.
William Moore, Aged Seventy-Nine,
Found in the Canal Yesterday.

The body of William Moore, an old soldier
seventy-nine years Of age, was found in the
canal near Blackford street yesterday
morning by Calvin Petty and Frederick
Schissel. They were attracted by hat and
cane floating on the water and made a
search and found the body near the bank.
1t is believed the man stumbled over the
approach to the bridge. The coroner rem
dered a verdict of accidental drowning:
Moore was an inmate of the Marion Sol
diers' Home. but had recently found home
with a farmer living near the city. His
daughter, Mrs. Richard Doughty living at
1873 Blackford street, did not know he was
in the city. though it seems her husband
had found the old gentleman the home in
the country. ]. W. Whitehead, a grocer on
West New York street, was Moore's
guardian. Moore was in Whiteheads store
Wednesday evening and was seen later at
the engine house on Washington street near
West. 1t is thought he was on his way to
spend the night at his daughters home
when he fell into the canal. Moore drew
a pension Of IS month.

Cuba's Freedom IN Sight

The beginning Of the end is in
sight The administration has been
finally forced into a position where it
is compelled to abandon it's Spanish
friends and espouse the cause Of
Cuba.
President Mckinley and his Cab
met have sat supinely by during the
past year, and witnessed the star
vation and butchery of more than
half million people. simply for po-
litical purposes. But, now that the
republican party finds itself on the
verge of wreck and dissolution by
reason of internal dissension and
broken pledges, the President allows
his official representative, G. s. Rus
sci, Assistant Attorney General. who
has just returned from trip of in
vestigation to Cuba to speak for
him and announce that the United
States must come to the rescue of
Cuba.
Mr.. Russel's report of the condi-
ton of affairs in Cuba is no news to
the President He has long known
the true situation there from the re
ports of Consul General Lee. Consul
Walter Barker, and his private agents
Blu. it did not suit his policy to as
sert his Americanism before (; nor
would it suit the bondholders, who
control his policy now, were it not
for the fact that the President is
compelled to come to the rescue OF
his party, and distract the national
attention from the political outra-
ges perpetrated at Columbus, Ohio,
by adopting a sensational foreign
policy.
Mckinley has long held this card up
his sleeve, awaiting the proper time
to play it. whenever the people be
came too restive under the Admin
istration's pro-Spanieh policy. These
facts are 30 well understood by all
Glasses in the city that they are
discussed as a mere matter of course
Now that President Mckinley has
been forced into action, we may e1-
pect to hear the welkin ring with de-
nunciations Of Spanish barbarity lie
will have to make haste, however, or
Congress will steal his thunder and
declare war on its now responsibility.
