Springfield, ILL.,, July 3i.-Ten per-
sons were injured, two fatally, by the
premature discharge Of the evening gan
at tze National guard encampment,
Camp Lincoln, this evening. The ex-
plosion was caused by some one throw
ing lighted cigarette into powder
which had fallen to the ground. The
accident occurred in the presence OF q
large crowd Of visitors 70 the camp.
Corporal Balsley and Jesse Rupert,
acting quartermaster, were loading the
evening gun, assisted by several men OF
Battery A. A sack of powder was
placed in the mouth OF the cannon, and
Rupert was about to drive the charge
home. The powder sack was too long
for the gun, and in forcing it into the
cannon the canvas was torn, some OF
the powder falling to the ground just
below the nozzle Of the cannon. Priv
ate Rupert stood facing the gun, ram
rod in hand. Balsley also faced the
gun, while number OF soldiers and
civilians were gathered around, despite
the commands Of the officers in CON-
mand to keep back. Suddenly some
one uttered the words:
Watch them scatter.n
There was flash of powder on the
ground. the flames were communicated
to the powder which was TO be fired in
the cannon aud the gun was discharg-
ed. The ramrod was broken and shot
from the cannon and Balsley and Rup.
pert had their clothes blown from their
bodies, which were blackened with

burned and blinded. The wounded
were taken to the hospitals.
Some say it was man in uniform
who threw the cigarette. but an eye
witness declares it was a small boy.

California OF. Lands.

Washington, July s0.-Commis-
sioner Hermann, of the general land
Office, has decided to continue for a
reasonable time the suspension OF about
so whole townships in Los Angeles,
San Francisco and Visalia land dis
tricts in California. from disposition
under the agricultural law, on represen-
taEions that they contain valuable oil
deposits. A thorough inquiry into the
true character of the lands is now in
progress. Petitions and sworn protests
have been posted with the general land
office, setting out that vast areas OF
lands in California
have every indication OF containing wall
liable deposits of oil. The land Office
last February ordered the suspension OF
these townships. in view OF the con-
troversy over their value as oil lands.
The action is in line with recent de-
cision of Judge Ross, OF the United
States circuit court for the southern
district OF Caliiorna.

that my limit was to protect American

recent instructions from both the de-

S-On the 18th, at a consultation
of the other foreign naval officers, it
was agreed that the railroad station at
Tong Ku should be taken (the railway
is under Chinese government control),
and in case any Chinese government
force acted against the force of any for
eign nation, all should be involved and
act unitedly. Under my instructions,

Chinese government property, and did
not care to become party TO such an
agreement without special authority.

rAwARrEo ey ACCIDENT.
Bold Plan for the Relief OF Pittsbur,
Priaonera.

Pittsburg, July 30.--One OF the bold.
est and most systematic plans for the
release OF one or more prisoners from
Riverside penitentiary was thwarted
today BY accident. The first theory
advanced, when the matter was dis.
covered, seemed TO point to the release
Of Alexander Berkman, the anarchist,
who is serving a 22-year sentence for
the shooting Of III. G. Frick, during the
big Homestead strike OF 1899, but the
conclusion reached tonight by Director
Muth, Of the Allegheny police depart
ment, is that the real object OF the res
cueis was to secure the freedom OF the
real estate swindler, J. G. Boyd, who
Is serving a seyen-year sentence in the
peniteniiary. This opinion is shared
by the Pittsburg police officials also.
and many reasons are brought forward
to confirm ths theory. Among these
are the fact that Boyd Is wanted in
nearly every state In the Union on
charges OF real estate swindles, as
confederates all over the country, and
is accounted one of the wealthiest pris-
oners in Riverside. 1t ia argued that
Berkman's friends could not afford the
expensive outfit which was used in this
instance, and their resources could not
possibly equal those Of Boyd's conied-
crates.
The plan by which the rescuers
hoped to reach the inside OF the peni-
tentiary wall was by tunnel from the
cellar OF house on Sterling street,
nearly opposite one Of the gates. Their
work Is remarkable, considering the
obstacles TO be overcome. Inyestiga-
tion today shows that the tunnel was
over 200 feet long, bot becuase Of its
zig-zag character had not reached the
prison wall. One Of the officers who
crawled distance Of 20l feet in the
dark passageway today was compelled
10 return before reaching its end by
reason Of the foul gas arising. From
this it ia inferred that the tunnel had
tapped sewer. Director Muth, how
ever, believes that the dead bo DIV OF
one Of the tunnelers will be discovered
tomorrow when the tunnel is opened
from the surface. He thinks the man
was overcome by gas, and that his
companions fed.
The elaborate arrangements that had
been made for completing the tunnel
and for providing for the safety OF the
diggers is a source of amazement to
the authorities. An electric bell, con-
nected with the entrance of the tunnel
in the cellar. was used in giving the
workers and watchers an instant warn
ing, and an air pump had been used to
keep the tunnel free from gas. 1t is
estimated that the electric plant and
other apparatus used cost the would-be
liberators at least $4,000.

OF Peter Simth, OF Joliet. Michael
Ryan, who is experimenting the work

The whirlpool in the windage basin
has been cause by the raising OF the
bear-trap dam and the opening of the
sluice gates, through which it was
originally intended that the greater
portion Of the $50, 900 cubic feet Of
water should flow every minute. The
bear trap had been raised above the
