mO1iehod.
CLEVELAND, Sept. IA Consolidated
street car on the Wilson avenue line
WAS blown up at the corner of Scoville
and Shinty streets during the evening.
There were twenty passengers on board
at the time, five Of whom sustained
broken legs. The other passengers and
the crew escaped injury. When the
explosion came it was with sufficient
force to lift the car off the track, de-
stroying the trucks and the flooring. The
car fell over on the tracks in such a
manner as to imprison the now frantic
passengers. The force of the explosion
was such that it was heard on the pub
lie square three miles away. The in
iured are: Mrs. l.. Schroeder. left
knee broken: Miss Schroeder, left leg
broken; E. P. Schultz. left leg broken:
Mrs. E. p. Schultz. right knee broken:

BOERS STIRRED UP.

Cham bsrlain's Recent Speech Inflsmss
the War Spirit In the Transvssl.
LONDON, Sept. 1.-The Pretoria cor
respondent Of The Morning Post says:
The Boer officials. after reading reports
of Mr.. Chamberlain's Birmingham
speech, consider that war is unavoid-
able. The speech has infialned the war
spirit. The Beers are now armed ex-
cept those in Johannesburg. Their or
ganization is strong. The Johannes
burg forts have been reinforced with
several quick firing guns. The ammu-
milton which Mr.. Schreiner allowed to
pass through Cape Colony came direct
to Pretoria. 1t was never intended tor
the Orange Free State.
President Kruger does not hesitate to
express the opinion that war is almost
inevitable. He has stocked the presi-
dency with ample stocks Of provisions
to insure his own person from privation
and he is constantly reciting the Tooth
Psalm.
The Matabeles are showing signs OF
unrest. The Beers are energetically en-
Gagged in poisoning the natives minds
against the British and they have ap
proached the Zulu chief Dinzulu. wht
appears uncertain which side to take.
