New YORK, June 9.-Thirty- six
buildings, comprising almost the entire
plant of the Norlinger-C Charlton Fire.
works company at Graniteville, were
blown up yesterday and the entire fire.
works plant practically wiped out Of ex-
istence. No lives were lost and but
three persons were injured, two Of them
seriously. The loss will amount to over
$50, 1000.
The first explosion occurred in the
rocket charging room. This was q
small building, about 12 feet square.
No one was in the building at the time,
and the first intimation the 115 em-
ployes in the works had of what was to
follow was the bursting of the sides Of
the building. accompanied by an ex-
plosion. The roof of the building shot
into the air and the rockets few in all
directions. They carried the fire into
all parts of the works.
The operators in the various buildings
rushed out into the yards. The flying
rockets made it as dangerous for the
employees to be out of the buildings as it
was in them. Explosion followed ex-
plosion as the buildings few into the
air. After score of explosions. three
heavy ones that shook the ground for
miles occurred. These were the three
etorehouses, in which supplies for the
Fourth of July were being held.
Through flying rockets, burning splint-
ers and balls of fire, the employees rushed
to safety. Only two were in any way
severely burned. These were: e.

Morong and Other Towns Abandoned.
Nebraskans Will Leave Manila In a Few
Days For Home.
LONDON, June Especial dispatches
from Manila say it is reported that
Aguina'do has dissolved the Filipino
congress and has proclaimed himself
dictator.
( WASHINGTON, June 9.-Oficials here
are in doubt as to whether Aguinaldo
in declaring his dictatorship is ami
mated by desire to rid himself Of his
refractory generals, Pillar and Luna, OF
whether he aims to consolidate in his
own hands the power to make terms Of
peace. 1t is known from the reports Of
President Schurman Of the American
Philippine commission, that these two
generals own only faint allegiance to
Aguinaldo and their attitude towards
the peace negotiations has made these
negotiations Intellectual, the civilian
members Of the Filipino side Of the
joint commission being completely
overawed and dominated by the mill
tary element controlled by these gen.
erals. 1t is believed here that if Aguin-
aldo can bend these men to his will and
assume supreme control he will at once
make for peace, being able to secure
better terms for himself than he would
otherwise.

England and United States Get Together r
on Alaskan Boundary Dispute.
WASHINGTON, June 9-when the
state department. closed yesterday it
was with the expectation on the part
of the officials that the modus vivendi
which has been under negotiation in
London would be completed and signed
today. The signature probably will
take place in London as between Am
bassador Choate and Lord Salisbury.
Assuming that the agreement is on
the exact lines of the instructions sent.
the modus will fix the provisional boun-
Diary line between Alaska and Canada
at three points near the head of the
Lynn canal. These will be sufficient it
is expected to prevent any further con-
flicts. These points are as follows:
On the White pass at the old Canadian
custom house, in the pass; on the Chill
coot pass, likewise at the Canadian
custom house, which has existed for the
past l6 months; on the canal to the
trail, just above the Indian village of
Kluckwan.
The tirst two points were easily fixed;
the hitch has been the location of the
divisional point on the Dalton trail.
The point named is at the head of ca
noe navigation and l5 miles above tide
water, whicn the Canadians sought so
strenuously to reach. The modus pro-
vides only for temporary delimita-
ton, but there is good reason to believe
that the lines it will establish in the
end will be accepted by both parties as
the best possible solution of the vexed
boundary issue-
