MAoHINIsrs AND TooLMAKnRs
Listened to Addresses Last Night in
 Coneordia Hall.

e
 The local union of machinists and toolmakers held a meeting in Concor- dia hall last night and listened to ad- dresses by General Organizer J. J. Con- nelly of Boston and State Representa- tive Donahue of Derby. MT Donahue was the first speaker. He confined his remarks chiefly to the attitude of some of the manufacturers toward the union and stated that while many of them much prefer seeing things con- tinue on the old plan still they were falling into line and that in a short time all would see that there was noth- ing unreasonable in the position and the nine hour day would become a reality without trouble. MT Connolly talked upon trades unions and the la bor problem. He said that a few years ago ministers of the gospel and professors of colleges denounced the labor question at every opportunity and in consequence many regarded it as something which aimed at uprooting the fundamental principles of society and working a serious injury to the business interests of the country. It took some time to disabuse the opposi- tion of the error they had fallen into, but it has been done and at present al- most every college in the country has a department where the labor problem is taught and the preachers of the word do not consider it out of place to advocate a shorter day. MT Connolly spoke at considerable length and his remarks were received with tremend- ous applause.

REMAINS OF JOHN II. HAYES
Shipped from, San Francisco and Will
 Arrive Here Next Week.

Arrive Here Next Week.
 To-day Undertaken Mulville received q communication from the deputy duartermaster of the United States army informing him that the body of John H. Hayes, a Waterbury boy who died in the Philippines, September II, 1900, was shipped from San Francisco to New York last night in charge of the Wells Fargo Express Co. The death of young Hayes was noted in the Democrat last fall and steps were taken at that time for the removal of his remains to the United States, but arrangements could not be made for the transportation of the body until this year. The body will arrive here a week from to-day and will be buried with military honors from Mulville's undertaking establishment on Sunday. He was a son of MT and Mrs John Hayes of Wolcott street and was well and favorably known in this city by wide circle of friends and relatives. The family lived for years on Hickory street. At that time Johnnie Hayes was a pupil at the Washington school and later he was employed by the dry goods firm of D. T. Turner & Go. In addition to the militia 1t is understood that all his old friends and associates will be present, so that the funeral promises to be one of the largest seen in the city in years. MT Mulville will go to New York the latter part of next week and will meet the body when it reaches there and accompany 1t to Wa terbury. 1t is a melancholy thing for the family of the dead soldier, still it is but reasonable to believe that they will feel much better satisfied to have his remains sleep in the city of his birth rather than rest for all time in alien earth. After all, the Spanish American war cost Waterbury the lives of quite few of its young men. and the home coming of the body of John Hayes will bring back anew to many the day when they. heard the funeral dirge at the obsequies of mem- bers of their own family, who left their homes in the flush of youth to defend the honor of the Stars and Stripes.

that they had The sides facing the magazine had been literally converted into kindling wood.
 None of the trainmen had received scratch, though Omar Ramey, brakeman, who was standing between the cars and magazine, was thrown to the ground by the force of the concus- sion. He was not hurt, but, after the excitement had passed away, was compelled to ''lay off'' and rest up for the balance of the day.
 Numerous company buildings situated near were badly shaken up, the windows, sash and all, be- ing blown out, while doors were torn from their hinges as though they had been feathers before the wind.
 Throughout the town the damage was fully as great as at the scene of the accident. Windows and doors were shattered while numer- ous holes in the roofs of dwelling houses testified as to the force with which rocks been driven through. the air.
 ss~It was thought that the explos- ion might have had some effect upon the new buildings under way but an examination showed that with the exception of MT. George w. Martin's-which was badly cracked-all had escaped injury. Considerable damage was done to chinaware in the immediate section while canned goods in the various grocery stores were shaken from the shelves and mixed promiscious- ly on the floor.
 Railroad officials have been around town making estimates of the damage this week, but a total is hard to get. Without doubt the loss will run up into the thousands of dollars.
 The magazine was located entire ly too close to town and while there was not a great amount of powder stored there it was more than will knowingly be allowed within that distance again.
 We hope this is the last calam- ity that is to befall the hustling town of Williams. She has cer- tainly had her share. First, the railroad division point was moved, then the collapse of the Grand Canyon railroad, next came the great fire of last July, and last we hope it is-the powder explos- ion Through them all Williams has never faltered, but is still push ing toward the goal of ultimate

A Terrific Explosion
Occurred in Williams on Monday, Oct 2S-

The town of Williams was shaken to its very foundation last Monday morning-in fact some of our best buildings were almost shaken of their foundations the explos- ion of the Santa Fe Pacific's pow der magazine located at this place.
 About 9 o'clock last Monday morning, when everyone was pay ing strict attention to his own af- fairs and preparing for the rush in connection with the closing up of a good months business, there came a crash like the roar of a thousand canons and a shock which nearly threw one of his feet. The ground trembled, buildings rocked and falling glass only told that some awful calamity had hap pened- The occupants of all the business houses rushed frantically to door or window in an effort to gain some information as to what had taken place and then hied themselves to the outside, fearful that another of the unexpected and unlocked for whatever it was" might occur
 Once out in the bright and in-. vigorating atmosphere, the courage of all returned and thfongs of men, women and children started in the direction whence the shock from the terrible something had come. A-hasty glance at the sky showed a huge cloud of black smoke over toward the railroad tracks and caused many to think that an engine had exploded.
 After a run of about three blocks the scene of the explosion was reached and the cause of the scare discovered to be the old and almost forgotten powder magazine of the $. F. P which had been located at that spot when the road was build ing through this section. All that remained of the former structure was a little hole in the ground and innumerable splinters.
 At the time of the explosion a train crew was engaged in switch ing about the yards and a spark from the engine is supposed to have been the cause. An engine and three cars were standing directly opposite the magazine-perhaps sixty feet distant-when the shock came, and how the crew of four, engineer, fireman and two brake men, escaped alive is a miracle. The engine bore the appearance of having been somewhere, while a look at two of the freight cars inn mediately convinced the spectator

Visitors responded sufficiently to fill

About eighty couples then took pos
