Terrific Explosion Brings Down Six
Stores in q Moment.
THE DEAD ESTIMATED 1T TWENTY
As Many More Taken to Hospitals, SOm'
Badly Injured-Upper Floors OF
Buildings Wers Occupied.

Philadelphia, August 5.-A terrific ex
plosion occurred, cause at present un
known, in a grocery store on Locust
street, west of Tenth, tonight. In a mo-
ment this store with two adjoining grocer
les, two second-class clothing stores and q
restaurant, were levelled to the ground.
1t is now estimated that at least twenty
persons are dead. From twenty to TWEEN
ty.five others have been taken to the hos
pital, many of them badly injured.
The fire has been gotten under control
and the fremen and policemen are search
ing the ruins for bodies.
The upper floors of the buildings were
all occupied as living quarters. No. lOlC
Locust street was Rosenthal's secondhand
clothing store. His family consisted ol
himself, wife and five children. At lOl2
was Jones' restaurant, patronized princi'
pally by colored people. In this building,
it is estimated, we're fifteen persons. In
No. 10l4, McClemmys grocery, it is es'
timated, were three persons. At No.
1Ol6, was Quigley's grocery. The family
consisted of husband. wife, three chill
dren and an uncle. No. 1918, Mountain g
grocery, estimated four persons.
How many members of the families
mentioned were in the houses at the time
cannot be told. Neither can it be said
how many customers were in the stores.

A Strange Proclamation.

Washington, Aug. 5.-The State De-
partment has received copy Of remark
able proclamation issued by Governor
Yuan, of Shan Tung, on June 7, defining
the relations that must exist between the
magistrates and the native Christians. The
proclamation deals with the subject in Ian.
guage so energetic as to make it evident
that the Chinese magistrates will not allow
the missionaries to exercise tn" same in.
fiuence as heretofore in local religious mat.
ters in the future.
Governor Yuan states that he has re-
ceived many reports from Chinese officials
that unworthy members Of the church
were practicing their religion simply for
the protection which it afforded them,
and were lightly setting aside the law OF
the land and seeking occasions for quarrel
and that such affairs were daily increasing

1t Is Said That All Armed Beers Will
In the Future Be Treated as Bri-
SandS By the British.
EAGER TO END HOSTILITIES.
Many in England Would Welcome Even
the Atrocities if They Thought
There Were Sign the Close
Of the War Was Near.

London, Aug. 4.-The statement made
by Mr.. Chamberlain in the House of Com
mons last night with regard to the war in
South Africa was received with loud cheers
from his supporters. The prompt action
of the Government in telegraphing Gener-
al Kitchener that all Beers found guilty Of
killing natives employed by the British
forces were to suffer the death penalty, it
is generally approved, although some peo-
pie affect to believe it will lead to further
barbarities by the Beers toward any
white prisoners that may fall into their
haAds.
In any case a new phase of the war has
been entered upon. The policy of lem
iency on the part of General Kitchener
has become thing of the past, and arm
ed Beers will in future be treated as bri-
gands. There is much bitter discussion in
and out of Parliament, but the most reas-
enable view is that the guerrilla warfare
has reached the state of decentralization
where Boer commanders cannot be con-
trolled Ivy either General Botha or Mr..
Kruger.
1t has been expected from the outset by
South Africans that the final stage of the
campaign would be characterized by acts
of desperation on the Boer side. So in.
tense is the desire to have the campaign
finished that even the atrocities would be
welcomed by many if they could be con-
vinced that these were signs that the end
of deplorable war was in sight.

M'LAURlN MAKES ANSWER.
His Tart Defiance of the South Carolina
Committee.

Columbia, S. c., Aug. 6.-The State
Democratic Executive Committee received
Senator McLaurins reply to their action
of July 25 condemning his course in the
Senate and demanding his resignation. In
the course of the letter Senator McLaurin
writes
81 hold my commission from the Demo
cratic voters of South Carolina. l recog'
nize no authority but theirs, take no
orders from any source but them, and
shall in due course appeal to them for
judgment on my course as Senator and
my character as a man and Democrat.
PERSONALLY, / am Indifferent to your
action because nobody has made you my
master or censor, and l regard what you
have done as merely expressing the malice
and the fears of one individual, Senator
B. r. Tillman. But for this always evil
and indecent influence, respect of proprie'
ties would probably have prevented the
four of you who are my declared competi'
tors for the seat l now have the honor to
occupy, from attempting to use the power
entrusted to you by your party to remove
a rival from your path.
81 shall ask the people to decide be-
tween the man who has tried to help cot
ton factories, open highways of commerce
and to so commend the Democratic party
as to command for it the confidence and
respect of the business and laboring ele'
ment North and South, and that OF the
man whose conduct and record has been
to sink the party to disrepute and impo'
tence. 1 shall ask them to say whether
they prefer the Senator who has tried to
retain for South Carolina the honor and
dignity won by long line of illustrlous
sons and glorious dteds, or the Senator
who las postured as buffoon and bully,
and who proclaimed on the floor of the
Senate that he represented constituency
of ballot box suffers and murderers who
wanted their share of the stealage.
81 desire to proclaim to the world that
YOU do not represent the intelligence, the
Democracy, of the people of South Caro-
lima, and to you and Senator Tillman, that
he has never been my master and shall
never be; that he shall not escape the ven
geance that must surely fall upon him
when the people have been made to un'
derstand his motives, his methods, his de-
based character and his shameful record.
ITO that grand conservator of free gov
ernment, the reserved patriotism and com
mon sense of the people, l make appeal,
against partisan Incidence and tyranny"

ALL MEN NOT CREATED EQUAL.
Pitchfork TiIIman Declares That mig
uers" Are Not Fit to Vote.

Milwaukee, Wis, Aug. 5.-A Sentinel
special from Marinette, Wis, says that
United States Senator Tillman, of South
Carolina, addressed large audience on
the race question from a southern stand
point. One of the features of his remarks
was plea in justification of lynching.
"Iu Wisconsin you have 5000 black
men," said he. "Why don't you try the
bleaching process and exterminate them
by inter marrying. The idea lie repugnant
to YOU. In South Carolina we have 750, 600
blacks and $50, 900 whites. The carpet
baggers, the 'niggers' and the southern
scallawags and scoundree ruled us after
the war, until they had stolen everything
that there was in the State; then we went
with our shotguns to the polls and took it
away from them. All men are not created
equal and the 'niggers' are not fit to vote.
Come what may, the white people of the
South will govern their own country"
lie COnQ6lnuSu DOOheI l. washington q
scheme of educating the negro along in
dustrial lines as an attempt to place him
on an equality with the white artisan,
something that would intensity race hatred
in the South. He said that among the
4 ,OOO, 900 slaves during the civil war, there
were more christians than there are today
among the 100000 blacks in the South.
81 do not want to uphold slavery" he
continued. 81 thank God there are no
slaves today under the stars and stripes. "
MIR. Tillman made an eloquent plea in
justification of lynching; and closed with
an impassioned statement to the effect that
the white people of the South would re-
main on top "in spite of the devil, )" and,
if necessary, he and his brethren were
ready to take down their shotguns again.

Total Crop Estimated at 1,26O,OOO,O ,OOO
Bushels, as Against 2. 100, ,iO2,H6
Bushels Last Year.
FOUR STATES ARE AFFECTED.
Missouri, Kansas, Iowa and Nebraska
Are Those That Suffered Most
Many of The PeSsimiStic Re-
ports Emanate From In
fouoSfad QpOE opG
tereSted BrOk ers.

! Chicago, Aug. 5.-The raius of Saturday
and Sunday throughout the corn belt have
put new aspect on the corn situation and
the opinion of the crop statisticians In
Chicago and other Western cities is that
the total crop will be between l ,25O, ,OOO, 600
bushels and l,5OO,O00,00 bushels, as
against 2.lO5, ,lO2, ,5l6 bushels in 1900
The four principal States, Iowa, Mlssou'
ri, Kansas and Nebraska, are the ones
most affected by drought, and the damage
done to the corn while severe in many
cases is not as great as those who are inter-
ested would like the country to believe.
Many of the farmers whose opinions have
been sought in relation to their crop were
unable to say definitely what the damage
would be, and in a number of cases said
the rain had such a good effect that the
loss would not be as great as it was first
thought it would be.
Last year there were 3O5, 1853, ,94S bushels
of corn raised in Iowa, $50, 1000 bushels
in Missouri, l63, $40, $50 bushels in Kansas
and 2l0.43O,O64 bushels In Nebraska.
These States alone produce nearly l,OOO,-
OOO, 900 bushels of corn, but it is said the
crop in Iowa and Nebraska will be about
one.ouarter less than it was in 1900 and in
Missouri and Kansas about quarters
less. The last two named States suffered
the greatest and there is hardly any doubt
that the corn crop in Missouri and Kansas
will be small.
During July there was very little rain In
the corn belt region. In Nebraska the
weather was very hot and dry and at times
it was feared not only the corn but the
grass would be injured. The drought in
Missouri and Kansas was long one and
in these two States the greatest damage
was done. The other corn-raislng States
were not affected as much as these four
principal ones, and it is thought the crop
will be nearly normal throughout the
country.
Those who keep posted on acreage OF
corn and grain do not think that the corn
crop will show greater discrepancy than
500, 900, 900 bushels, and those who like to
be conservative and at the same time are
inclined to take pessimistic view of the
situation think that the corn crop for 1901
will be at least $50, 600 less than it was in
1900.
The reports that are being sent out rela'
tive to the corn crop in most cases eml'
nate from some brokers' office and are got
ten up for a purpose. There is consider
able guessing being done and those who
have travelled through the corn belt be-
lieve that the crop, while not being as large
as in 1900, will be fair one and enough
for all purposes. The "Corn Belt, pa
per devoted to farmers, says that in spite
of ell more or less expert opinion farmers
are unable to tell what the final corn crop
results will be.

DEATH IN THE
ROYAL FAMILY.
The DOWaSer Empress Frederick EX-
pireS at CFOnb0rS.
THE END CAME RATHER SUDDENLY.
Two Hours After Doctors Reported No
Change In Her Condition She
Passed Away.

Cronberg, August 5.-The Dowager EN-
press Frederick died at 6:l5 O'Clock tLis
evening.
The death of the Dowager Empress was
somewhat sudden. At O'Clock her ply
sicians reported no change in her condi
ton. Emperor William and her Majesty
other children, and the Empress Augusts
Victoria were in the sick room most of the
day. They were all around the bedside
when the Dowager Empress passed away
quietly. Professors Renvers and Spielha
gen were also in the room.
The flag on the castle was Immediately
half.masted.
At s O'Clock this evening Emperor Will
lam conducted the members of the Dow
ager Empress's household into the death
chamber and led them, one by one, past
the bedside, to take last farewell of tEeir
mistress.
Closely following the announcement oi
the death from the castle, the church bells
were tolIed and the flags half.masted.
Visitors to the castle began inscrlbing their
names in book placed for the purpose in
the hall.
1t is said that the cause of death was
dropsy, accompanying the cancer. The
remarkable vitality Of the Dowager En-
press astonished her physicians. She re-
tanned consciousness to the end. The
castle and grounds are now surrounded by
soldiers and patrolled by Hussars and
mounted police.
Her Royal and Imperial Highness, the
Dowager Empress Frederick, is the widow
of Emperor Frederick William of Germany
and mother of the reigning Kaiser Will
helm II. She is the eldest daughter OF
Queen Victoria of England, and was born
Princess Royal of Great Britain and Ire
land and Duchess of SAKE November Il,
1910. She was christened Victoria Adel'
aide. She is IL months and II days Older
than her brother, Albert Edward, now
King Edward VII Of England. Her other
living brothers and sisters are Princess
Helena of Schleswig Holstein, Princess
Louise, Duchess of Argyle, Prince Arthur,
Duke of Connaught and Princess Beatrice
Duchess of Hesse.
Princess Victoria was married January
25, 1858, to Prince Frederick William oi
Prussia, then Crown Prince of Germany.
Crown Prince Frederick became Emper'
or of Germany on the death of his father
in March, 1888, but he was then slowly
dying of cancer in the throat, and he dice
June Is, 1888, after a nominal reign o
three months, every moment of which wa'
full of agony both mental and physical
His Empress remained by his side and de-
voted herself to alleviate his suffering. Al
his death she became the DOwager EN-
press, and her son became Emperor.
Empress Victoria Frederick is thus th'
daughter of a Queen and Empress. th'
mother of an Emperor, the wife and widow
of an Emperor and the sister of a KIM
and Emperor.
