attack of diarrhee accompanied by

as are usually given in such cases,
but as nothing gave relief, we sent
for q physician and it was under his

child had been sick for about ten
days and was having about twenty

Philadelphia, Sept 1L-Three buildings
on South Street below Fifteenth were
shattered completely tonight by a mys-
terious explosion. which has resulted in
the death so far Of four persons, three
OF whose bodies are in the morgue, and
the injury OF fourteen.
Fifteen other persons are missing.
The buildings destroyed are 1i4l, 144
and I4sG South Street.
The first is occupied by Abraham Cold
berg as a furniture store and dwelling,
the second by Samuel sebottenste;n as
grocery ard the third by Russian named
Suttenose, vino kept a shoe store.
The explosion occurred about o'clock.
The conclusion was like that of dynamite.
Three buildings were razed to the
ground and the panes of glass in other
buildings on both sides of the street for
the distance OF nearly a block were
broken.
A fire started in one of the buildings,
which gave rise to a momentary impress
SION that the explosion was caused by
gasoline in the basement of STEMS gro-
Gerry.
The force of the disturbing element was
so fierce and sharp, however, that the po-
lice are convinced that some high expIo-
sive caused the havoc, and their theory
is that il originated from some substance
of this nature kept upon the premises by
SUttenose. the Russian.
There was very little fire, and it was
soon extinguished.
The police began at once the search

Samuel Sebotten Stein and his son, Mau-
rice, eighteen years old, We're found in
the debris. The body of a ten-year-old
girl was found in the rear of the build

Goldberg family.
The occupants of all the buildings were
Jewish, and large families were the rule
Fourteen persons, some occupants of

GROWTH IN TRANSIT.

(Frcm the New York SUM-
The beginning of the work of substitut-
ing the underground trolley for the cable
on the Broadway line Is a cheering evil
dence of progress and another kick at
the pessimfsts. The Broadway cable line
itself is only a few years old, and it is
now to be superseded just as 1t took the
place of the horse cars. and as they in
their turn, drove from the street those
busses or stages that were long the most
conspicuous objects on Broadway except
perhaps. the Broadway squad. Boys and
girls who know not stages are growing
up Since those perambulators of Broad
way disappeared from it. hundreds of
thousands of persons have come to town
to whom a Broadway stage would be
about as much of a curiosity as a sedan
chair or a berlin.
Where are those old drivers. gifted
and explosive race, skilled pilots in the
currents of Broadway? In what spectral
parkway of old coaches do they steer
their secular nagS and complaining
sages? The censorious marked a ten
dency to Inflammation in the counten-
ances of some of these charioteers and
accused them of rum. Such is human JUS
tice. Their language went to their faces.
Millions of umbrellas were shaken wrath
fully at them Policemen's clubs like
groves of locusts surrounded them. They
had to make change No wonder they
were incarnadined. Let us hope that in
the limbo of coaches they have the hap
piness of running over everybody and
never '~.tins anv passenger out.
What waggtng of boards and heads
there was when 1t was proposed to have
horse cars on Broadway! Many con-
seryatiyes, and especially stout old gen.
tlemen-a class that should have well
coined a change-were convinced that the
stage was the most comfortable, rapid
and desirable means of urban transporta-
tion in the world. Look at London. Lock
at Paris. What in thunder do we want
of horse cars on Broadway? They never
can run therel There will be perpetual
block. Traffic will be stopped. and per-
petual confusion will result. Then lot
of people who never parade themselves
nor go to see anybody else parade,
mourned over the spelling of Broadway,
dead henceforth, they thought, to mill
tary and festal professions. political
marches, and even chowder clubs There
was no room for horse cars on Broad
way, anyway. Who wanted horse cars
on Broadway? Who would ride in them?
This is scarcely an exaggeration of the
talk of many worthy citizens some thir-
teen or fourteen years ago. But the
horse cars came and conquered, and 1t
seemed as If they had always been there;
and the thought of Broadway without
them was like the thought of the world
without man. Presently the horses dis
appeared, and strange craft called cable
cars were sighted. At first these seemed
to be about twice the size of the Ark.
Compared with the '.jiggers," or with the
little smoking cars that used to run on
the Sixth Avenue line in prehistoric
times. they were of respectable size. and
they were gradually succeeded by bigger
ones. Then the open car, the last best
gift of car makers to man, and likewise
TO women-who really shouldn't be so
fond of the four rear seats-turned up.

Now the cable with it's jerks and joits,
is TO make way for the electric system.
The cable is an estimabe invention. but
the motion of the present Madison Ave-
nue. cars, for instance, compared with the
Broadway cars, is as velvet to the jump
ing toothache.
What a hulIabaloo there was over the
eccentric running and refusal to run OF
the cable cars at firsti They have be-
come docile since. The dangers and dis
comforts of the curves have been abated.
Now another step in the way of speed
and comfort is to be taken. Moreover,
the choking of Broadway viii be helped
somewhat when some of the Broadway
electric cars can be switched off at Astor
Place and sent up Madison Avenue.
Thus. in the matter of cars, as in
everything else, the better thrusts out
the good.

THE PASSING OF CAMP WIKOFF

for troops ordered to Cuba, and that it
would be more or less permanent
