Toulon, March THE naval powder
magazine Of La G0ubran. between La
Seine and ToulOn. in Southern France,
exploded yesterday morning. All Of
the soldiers on duty AT the magazine
were killed and a number of inhab-
itants of the surrounding district, the
buildings III which were raZed, also
fell victims. Forty corpSes have al
ready been recovered. The cause Of
the explosion is not known.
Fify-twO kilogrammes Of black
powder exploded. II looks as though
n volcanic eruption had occurred. the
country being swept almost bare with
in a radius of two miles, houses de-
stroyed, trees overturned and dis
torted, fields devastated and covered
with stones and black dust. Some OF
the stones are enormous. One weigh
ing fifty kilogrammes fell i'll the sub
urb of Ponedelas. Signs Of the eX-
plCSiCn are evident in all the suburbs
Of Toulon and in the city. Even at
st. Jean dc Var, five miles distant,
windows Were shattered and doors
battered in. Later reports show that
OF the seven Scntries, four We're killed
outright and the others severely In
jured the corporal being literally
scalped and thc scalp overhanging his
face like a veil. \ large number of
soldiers are now employed in clearing
away the debris. 1t is impossible to
ascertain accurately the number of
killed. hut it is believed that no fewer
than 100 were injured. Although IT
was n clear night the explosion was so
terrific as To produce slight rainfall.
Fortunately the neighboring maga-
zines escaped. II is now believed the
explosion originated in chemical de-
composition in smokeless powder

Santiago. Cuba, March 5.-Bptween
2,OOo and 5000 men have been sud
denly thrown out of work in the PROV
ince of Santiago, over 700 in the i'm
mediate neighbOrhoOd of this city.
Althoug Gov. Gen. Brooke has wired
$4,000 required for the February pay
rolls, there is still deficit Of nearly
$4,000, and the orders from Havana
still hold good limiting the expcndit-
ureS during the month Of March for
the entire province TO $4,000. The eff
feet of this order on Civil Gov. Castil-
10, Mayor Bacar,li and other Cubans
prominent In official circles Is simply
paralyZing.
Mayor Bacardi has cabled the gov
ernor general desiring to know what
he is expected to DO with such large
number of men suddenly thrown out
OF work.
Though we are perfectly friendly
to the Americans, he said in the dis
patch, "the present policy seems sui.
cidal, for public improvements are
greatly needed and the men also are
greatly in need Of work"
Civil Gov. Castillo wonders what
will happen. He cannot see that the
men suddenly thrown out of employ
ment have any alternative TO bec0m-
ing bandits, and he regrets exceeding
ly the damaging blow the province has
received Owing to his position he
may not comment upon the orders OF
his superiors. but he considers the
prospects very gloomy.
Worse Than the Spanish.
Groups of men on street corners, in
clubs and in cafes, openly abuse the
American administration. saying that
the Spanish was infinitely preferable,
as in the worst times during peace.
considerably more men were engaged
on public works under the old regime
than are now so employed. Probably
the full effects Of the new Policy Will
not be visible before Monday. as the
men will receive their pay to-day. and,
although Gen. Wood does not expect
disturbances. Cubans who affect to be
cognizant with the whole situation.
say 1t will be quite impossible to avoid
an outbreak of some sort. In spite or
all the antagonism displayed toward
the American authorities at Havana.
Gen. Wood remains popular among
Cubans of all classes, who declare
Havana instructions an Outrage upon
his administration"
In the speech made at the San Carlos
club the sentiment was that the new
orders ought to be attributed to envy
of Gen. Woods successful methods in
this department. and so far as the
province of Santiago Is concerned the
Cubans say that If a vote were taken
tomorrow they would select him for
the highest position in the island In
preference even to any Cuban. The
new regulations have brought to
standstill all the improvements. In
cluding the dredging OF the harbor,
roadmaking and sewerage.

Those who are in the Immediate sur

idea is to regeEerate the country. He
, holds that the queen regent can ratify
the treaty Of peace with the United
States without vote of the chambers
and that, therefore, their dissolution
need not defer the ratification.
