EXPLOSION AT WINCHEsTER's

Illuminating Room Destroyed-Patrick
Murray Badly Burned and Wounded.
Patrick J. Murray, aged thirty eight
years, single, living at No. 10 Wooster
place and employed as a mixer of full
inmate at the factory of the Winchester
Arms company, made some mistake in
preparing the mixture while at work
yesterday noon, and in the explosion
which followed he was very badly in
jured, while the sides and roof of the
shed were blown to bits. He was taken
to the New Haven hospital and the doc
tors said last night that he would prob
ably recover. He was burned all over
his body, his left leg was cut and bruis-
ed by flying timbers, and he was suf-
fering very severely from shock, but no
bones were broken and, so far as the
doctors could determine, there were no
internal injuries
Men who accept work in the fulminat-
ing department at Winchester's literal
ly take their lives in their hands. This
is so true that the company will only
give work to unmarried men in that
particular branch of it's business. About
once in so often--the period varies, but
the fact holds good-this Illuminating
room blows up. AS a general thing that
is all that anybody is able to learn. The
remains of the man in charge at the
time are gathered if they can be found,
and the cause Of the explosion forever
remains q mystery.
Murray, the victim of yesterdays ac-
cident, is far more fortunate than sew
eraI of his predecessors, and if he sur
wives the burns and shock he may per-
haps be able to tell how 1t happened.
The company realizes the dangers of
the Job and isolates the department as
far as possible, locating it in a sort of
cellar, with a light roof and pliable
sides, and when the mistake" comes
everything goes UP readily, and the big
buildings remain uninjured The Off
cials of the company were naturally
reticent yesterday. All they could say
was that the shed had gone skyward
and Murray lived. They have no infor-
nation concerning the nature of the ac-
cident or it's cause.
Murray has held the job for about two
wears. He has been regarded as a par
ticularly cautious workman and no COM
plaints have been entered against him. |
He has gone regularly to his work, he |
is not a man of bad habits, and it is be- |
lieved that the accident was the result !
of one of the unaccountable mishaps |
that sometimes come to the most care
full men.

Refuses to Give Names.

Mr.. John D. Long, secretary of the

time to accept an invitation to make a
speech. He seems to feel that the ad

terances as he is capable of giving
forth 10 set it right before the country.
His enthusiasm for the cause of i'm
perialism, however. dulls his judg-
ment at times, when his power of i'm
agination runs riot and gets him into
serious difficulty. He told Boston
audience the other day that a prom
inent anti-expansionist had said that
1.-The treatment of the Cubans by Spain.
or the Americans by the Turks, is not
to be compared with our course toward
the Filipinos in wanton and deliberate
cruelty"
The charge was so serious that Mr..
Long was requested to give the name
of the prominent anti-expansionist. !"
and the occasion when the statement
was made. This Mr.. Long declined to
do. but upon being pressed ne said it
was in a letter which the navy depart
ment had received. That is as much
information about it as he would give.
Perhaps Mr.. Long may be said to be
the only man in the United States who
would not have made haste to give
such a letter to the nearest newspaper
for publication. Perhaps, too, Mr..
Longs memory had gotten things SO
tangled. that he could not distinguish
between utterances of imperialists and
utterances of anti-ex pansionists. 1t
certainly is true that the only public
utterances of a severely vicious and
brutal character concerning what the
policy of the administration is, or
should be. toward the Filipinos have
come from partisans of the administra-
tion. These utterances have given oc-
casion for severe censa.re, and II the
administration feels itself to have been
attacked, it should remember that it
has not rebuked one public official for
insisting upon a policy toward the
Filipinos which would make the treat

IRoNToN, Mo-, May 15, 1899.
Mr.. Editor-America is governed by
conspiracy. The consplrators have
threatened and bullied US everywhere,
in season and out of season. Their
facts are the inventions of imposters,
their logic, noise and wordy defiance.
Distraction, slsnder, bribery, intimida-
tion and Misrepresentation are the
weapons of their warfare. Lying is
one of the oldest tricks of tyrants.
The public absolutely swims with
amazement on the flood OF falsehoods
which are daily and nightly promul-
gated by the plutocratic press and pull
pit. which seem to think lying a virtue,
while truth and honor are looked upon
as signs OF deserved poverty and pre-
meditated obscurity. Ii the facts cam
not be disposed of, why then dispose of
the man himself-call him pessimist,
crank. infidel, anarchist or copper
head. This is the way demagogues,

How We Christians Make War
To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch.
The press dispatches from the Phil
ippines which have passed the military
censorship. do not by any means show
that the conduct OF the war against the
Filipinos has been creditable to coun-
try which boasts of having fought three
wars for human freedom. Numerous
communications from soldiers and 9TH
ers which have never been subjected
to the surveillance of partisan press
censor give US numerous and specific
details OF most horrible atrocities and
outrages, that can not be justified by
any rule of warfare aud which must
bring the blush of shame to every
American.
Regardless of the injustice of the i'm
perial policy of 'criminal aggression"
If these reports be true, and they
doubtless are. the conduct OF the war
in the Philippines has been most dis
graceful and discreditable to our coun-
try. The Administration once having
tasted blood in the war for humanity
and civilization" in Cuba seems to have
developed an appetite for blood equal
to that of caunibal and it seems to
be an appetite for the blood of the
poor, the weak, the helpless and ig-
norant. who in the exercise OF their
God given rights have attempted to
defend their homes, their liberties and
their lives.
Here is some OF the evidence Of the
outrages and atrocities referred to
which can not be justified by any rule
of warfare. doubtless not even by the
rules OF cannibal warfare.
Iron County register., 1899-05-18
knaves and tyrants have behaved ir

all ages.
Nevertheless, the fact remai9s,
America is governed by conspiracy.
Does any one doubt this? He has but
to cast his eyes backwards over our
legislative. executive and judicial his.
tory. state and national, in recent years.
and the fact becomes as awfully visible
as the skulls in the temple of death.
| Conspiracy implies secrecy aud dupli-
city on the part of the conspirators.
and non-fnformation on the part of the
people conspired against-infraction
of the laws on one side and blindness
and suffering on the other.
The conspirators grow bold apace.
A Republican orator, in recent speech
delivered in St. Louis, said in sub
stance: There is no use in Disgusting
the fact, the late war with Spain
means goodbye Thomas jefferson and
all hail to Alexander Hamilton. This
is er cathedrG. He spoke truth-voiced
the true inwardness of the imperialis-
tic contingent of his party and federal
lied democrats. Had the real motive
and scope of this Spanish-Asiatic war,
which meant the substitution of Impe-
rialism for Americanism, been known,
not one in five thousand would have
gone into it, Notwithstanding the sim
cere and generous sympathy of our
people with the Cuban revolutionists.
The administration knew this-cun-
ningly kept the real purpose in the
background for months, and adroitly
concealed the cloven foot under the
stolen robes of patriotism.
Mr.. Mckinley repeatedly assured
the country, that the war with Spain
was begun and prosecuted for the single
and laudable purpose OF rescuing the
struggling Cubans from the Spanish
yoke; that conquest and forcible an
nexation, under our code of morality,
would be criminal aggression. Rely
ing upon these assurances, an incom-
parable and unconquerable army oi
chivalrous and liberty-loving volun-
teers responded with alacrity to his
call. The war on account of Spanish
imperialism in Cuba, is justified in
virtue of the Monroe doctrine, but

ing waged in the torrid zone 5000 miles
away? A stranger, not understanding G
its object, would conclude that the
American people were about to throw
away their religion, their manners and
civilization for that of the Philippines.
To seek for an explanation in the pa
triotism of the people would only lead
the enquirer further from the truth.
The besetting weakness of the Ameri-
can people is credulity, the love of ex-
element, and the charm of novelty.
The whole land, just now, seems pos
sessed of war devil, the James spirit
of militairism. 1.-The name of God has
