BLEW UP COURT ROOM
LEAKING GAS CAUSES ExPLO-

premc Court Room "a Conn
plete Wreck.

Washington, Nov 7.-An explosion
aud fire wrecked the supreme court
room and the rooms Immediately adj
joining il en- the main floor of the
capitol The damage is enormous
The entire ccntral-easteru part of the
great marble pile, from the main floor
to the suhterrancau basement, practc-
ally is mass OF ruins The force of
the explosion was SO heavy that the
coping stones on the outer walls, just
east of the point where the explosion
occurred, were bulged out nearly two
inches; windows in l that part of the
building were blown out, ard locked
doors We're forced from their hinges
quit. l5O feet from the scene of it.
Fire followed the explosion so quick
ly as to seem practically simultaneous
with it. The explosion shook the inn
mense structure to its foundations, and
was heard several squares from the
capitol. 1t occurred in small room,
tightly inclosed by heavy stone walls,
in the subterranean basement immedi-
ately below the main entrance to the
old capitol building. Ia this room was
500-light gas meter, which was fed
by four-inch main. Very little gas
is used in that part of the building,
but at the time of the explosion the
! gas had not been turned off at the me-
ter. The meter itself was wrecked
and, the gas pouring from the main,
caught fire. The flames originating
from the explosion darted up the shaft
of the elevator, which had been com.
/ pletely destroyed by the force of the
explosion, and communicated with the
record room of the supreme court, the
office of the marshal of the court and
the supreme court library. Before the
flames could be subdued the priceless
documents in the record room had been
almost totally destroyed and serious
damage had been done in the marshal's
Office and some minor rooms in the
immediate vicinity.
No intelligent estimate of the money
loss by the explosion and fire can yet
be made. In the opinion of capitol
officials and mechanics who examined
the structure the loss will reach prob
ably 5000, 900 to the building. The loss
on the library and records can scarcely
be estimated in dollars and cents A
million dollars could not replace them,
because of many of them no duplicates
are in existence
Among the losses which will be most
sincerely regretted are those of busts
of Chief Justice Marshall and other
distinguished members of the supreme
court, which were arranged on small
pedestals about the supreme court
chamber In the smoke and ruin
which followed the explosion these
valuable works of art were either
badly damaged or wholly destroyed,
and with their destruction the country
has suffered an irreparable loss. M any
Of them have been treasured as ex-
hibits in the supreme court cham ber
for half century.

MAJ NEED TROOPS.
Serious Trouble with Aguinsldos Forces
Hourly Expected.

Washington, Nov. s.-Major Simpson
of General Merritt's staff has just re-
turned from Manila, and though per-
sonally he does not seem to fear serious
trouble with the forces of Aguinaldo,
he says there is distinct sentiment
among the United States troops that
there may be more trouble and that
more troops may be needed. Aguin-
aldos force is reckoned at about 10000
and Maj Simpson freely admits that
the rebels are in control of the island
of Luzon.
The recent attack on Iloilo by the
fo .ces of Aguinaldo recalled to Mag
Simpson the fact that Aguinaldo had
some transports and that about 500 OF
the Luzon troops had been carried to
the island of Panay
On the island of Mindanao the situ-
tants are mostly Mohammedans. Lit
tie or no Investigation of the situation
there has been made by our army
Back in the hills of Luzon many tribes
are almost unciviized and have never
felt the force of either the insurgents
" Spaniards.
The fact that Aguinaldo's troops at
tackled Iloilo, according to Maj Simp-
son, shows that Aguinaldo has not
acuuiesced with the decision involved
in the fall of Manila

ROOF CAVED IN.
Fifteen Workmen Crushed to Death Be
meath Falling Timbcrs.

Detroit, Mich, Nov. While work
men were engaged in the erection of
the New Wonderland theatre, the roof
collapsed, carrying down the iron gal
leries of the structure, and great
mass of scaifolding and debris. Some
SO men were working under the col
lasped parts of the structure. Scarcely
any of these men seem to have escaped
injury, The bodies of fifteen dead men
have already been recovered Several
others are fatally injured.
As nearly as can be ascertained the
cause of the accident was the removal
of the temporary wooden braces which
supported the roof The instant the
last one was taken down the whole
roof caved in with IA crash, carrying
everything in the interior of the build
ing to the basement with it. There
was in the building at the time of the
collapse eight carpenters. four masons,
ten plumbers, two electricians and two
helpers, four painters and six lahorers
Some were struck by great iron girders
and rods and dashed downward in a
bleeding mass, others pitched head

meath them, falling four or five stories

Meanwhile, Mataafa has not yet been

urged on by a section of foreigners,
are advocating the abolishment of the
kingship. There are others who are
desirous of trying the experiment of
running the country without "A king
for six or twelve months. This plan
may receive favorable consideration
from the chief justice, who actually
has full power in the matter. The
treaty, in section six of article three
confers upon him the duty of settling
the kingship. The country is SO far
quiet, but this state is owing entirely
to the presence of warships.
