BURNED BY MOLTEN METAL.
Seven Men Receive Severe 1njries ir
 n Chicago Foundry.

Chicago. III, June 27.-Caught in streams of molten metal which poured into the cupola room of the foundry department of the American Car and Foundry company. seven working men were frightfully burned, three of them fatally. The explosion of a dyna- mite shell. which had been placed in the cupola with scrap iron, caused the accident.
 When the shell had been heated it burst breaking the.walls of the cupo1a, and the molten metal streaming forth in all directions. Not one of the men in the room escaped the white hot metal.
 The victims are Thomas Cusan, fore man of the cupola room, who died on the way to the hospital; Frank Balcer, skull fractured and body burned; Michael Smentam, body burned, both legs broken; Charles Brown. scalp wounds and burned about body; Frank Diedo, arm broken and burned about face and head; William Burke, body burned; John Sefcik. body burned and leg broken.

EXTENDING ITS LINES.
Connecticut Railway and Lighting Company to Add to Its Mileage.

Bridgeport, June 27.-A meeting of the stockholders and the board of di- fectors of the Connecticut Railway and Lighting company was held yesterday and another step in the proposed exten- sion of its lines was taken.
 The meeting was called to order at 12:30 noon in the directors room in the general office building in this city.
 For some time it has been known that the company was intending to ex- tend its lines in the Naugatuck val ley. The first definite step along that line was taken yesterday, when 1t was voted to extend the Derby-Ansonia line to Seymour, and the Oakville branch of the Waterbury system to Watertown.
 The first named improvement has long been desired by the people of Seymour, who at certain times of the day and evening are practically iso- lated from the rest of the world. When this extension is made, there will be a gap of seven miles left be tween Seymour and Naugatuck. This will be the only break between Stam- ford, and Waterbury, Wateryille and Watertown. The company will ulti- mately build between Seymour and Naugatuck, it is believed.
 The other proposed extension is merely the lengthening of the line completed last summer between Waterbury and Oakyilfe Even since that line was constructed, the com pany has merely been waiting for an opportune time to push it through to Watertown.
 The extensions will be made as soon as possible, but cannot be begun till after the necessary hearings in court
 The company also voted $50 yester- day to the Bridgeport. Traction com pany Relief association, and an equal amount to the Waterbury Traction Company Relief association.

if the nomination was offered ito them, fReE Would acceptsit, but they hq not an1end to 5work.Sx Alderman Cnssso1l desires a renomination unless lie is re warded with a higher positiohaBy the republican party. He has done good work and so have Aldermen Walker and Callan, during their term of office, vet his berth is being sought after. One of the most promising young men whose name has been suggested as candidate for alderman is Walter Ford of Johnson street, who is employed as a bookkeeper at Holmes, Booth &5 Hay dens. He has a strong following. So has Samuel Chapman of Washington avenue, who has already filled the po- sition of alderman and would like to once more. Another man whose name is mentioned is Thomas Quinn of Al der street, foreman at tllea Water bury Lumber and Coal company. His chances are fair. There are 2. number of other cadidates, whose lights are not as yet very bright. As to the can didates for mayor there is big fight; one perhaps bigger than the one i'll the Democratic camp for the same posi- ton. Every republican is being but
 
 interests of the various candidates who are. namely: Representative George Lilley, Earl Smith, president of the Waterbury Buckle company; Warren l. Hall, president of the board of al- dermen, and Aldermen Ralph Blakes- lee and Fred Gross. Personally think Earl Smith would be elected if nomi- mated; but I do not think he will se- cure the nomination. Alderman Cross may be considered out of the race, ow- ing to his stand in the present strike trouble, and so may Alderman Hall, as he has many enemies in his owIl party. The race, therefore, narrows down between Representative George Lilley and Alderman Ralph BIakeslee. Either one would make strong nonii-, nation. The race is said to be a hot one between them. I, myself, have no choice between them.

for Mr.. Staples. asked Mr.. Partridge
If ne thought the building was dan
derous. and if so. why. Mr.. Partridge
said he thought any old rattle-trap
building surrounded by valuable prop
erty was Il danger. He also referred to
the stencil alleged to rise therefrom.
He thought there was some danger Of
the building falling down.
Charles Mclaughlin said the building
hai boon unnccupied for five years and
Il: d au, sancc to the neighbors. He said
the building was in Il filthy condition:
that drunken people sleep there and
smoke. and there is danger Of fire. He
thought it Il dangerous dilapidated
building.
City Marshal Breen said he took
three drunken men out of the building.
one day. MIR. Little asked the marshal
if he had taken any measures to pre-
vent the breaking of window glass
in the building and the marshal said
he didn't remember of seeing any glass
there for number of years.
\. NJ. Goddard. Esq. said the bricks
in one chimney were in such n condi-
ton that they could be tern apart with
tile fingers. He said the best evidence
was the sense of the aldermen who
had visited it. Mr. Nickcry owns sew
eial buildings in the vicinity and had
received complaints from his tenants.
In Mr.. Nickery's interest he thought
the building n nuisance that should be
abatcd. He thought the building be
yond repair.
MI. Little said he understood Mrs
Davis did not intend to repair the
building. Mrs. Davis has had an offer
removed. He said she would take that
action. He asked for time for his eli
ent to sell the old building and have
it taken away. He thought the trade
would be completed. Friday.
Mr.. Goddard asked what objection
there could be for the aldermen to de-
clare the building n nuisance and take
action that it must be removed within
a certain time. 80 days for instance.
Since she intended to sell the building
and the buyer intended to tear ii down.
he did not see what disadvantage Mrs.
Davis would be placed under.
Aid rrhan Hichborn introduced an or
der that the building No. Al Court
street. owned by Georgiana Staples
Davis. be adjudged a nuisance and
dangerous. and that the owner be or
dered to cause it to be taken down and
removed within 80 days.
At 1888 A. NJ. the board adjourned.
