THIRTY HURT
BY EXPLOSION

Thiry p-ta.ls "sra nue, yesterday
by an explosion of gas in the cellar Of
the double tenement house 12I Avenue
! G, New York City. Among the i'm
juced are fourteen frcmen and one
policeman. An aged woman was SO
seriously affected by the schok that She
died later. The explosion wrecked q
store on the ground floor Of the build
ing, and many Of the spectators who
stood on the sidewalk were struck by
flying glass and spluters. Some were
knocked down by the force of the con-
cussion.
The outburst came close upon a
slight fire which is said to have beon
caused by plumber who was at work
i'll the cellar repairing a gas engine.
When the fire started, the plumber ian
out of the cellar Alexander LuGt,
proprietor Of cigar store ON the
ground floor. heard the plumbers cry
Of Fire. and turned in an alarm
from the fire-box on the corner. The
fire proved to be a trifin2 affair and
was soon cXtingu:shod.
As often happens at cellar fires, the
heat had melted the lead connection
between the street main and the gas
meter, and tho collar was soon charg-
ed with gas. The ttrcmcn attempted
to find the break in the main, so that
it could be stopped up. Thoy had
scarcely entered the cellar when the
explosion occurred.

GEN. GOBIN'S STAFF
riAY ALL RESIGN.


Recent disruption in the Thirt
brigade of the National Guard, which
several days ago caused General Cob
in to announce his intention of resign.
ing threaten to continue until almost
every officer on the brigade staff has
resigned, says the Scranton Republi-
can The announcement made by As.
sistant Adjt Gen. Major w. S. Millar
yesterday, that he would resign his
commission before General Goblin s
resignation takes effect, but strength
ems the statement that every attache
of the generals staff will follow
where he leads.
Much dissatisfaction was aroused
among the Third brigade officers when
General Millar, thon civilian, was
placed at the head of the National
Guard in Pennsylvania. BY right of
seniority, the office should have been
General Gobin's. The latter regarded
it as a direct slap ct him and, though
~he would not have left his Third
Brigade, yet the chance of refusal was
not,even offered, him. This incensed
the staff, which pledged itself to sup
port Goblin.
While the troops were recently in
the field, dinner was given to the
staff in honor of General Goblin. The
general announced his intention OF
resigning and his staff pledged them
selves that they would stand by him.
The designations of the other oific-
ers are, therefore, likely to follow.
They are: Inspector Major William p.
Clarke, Commissary Simon p. Cameron,
Quartermaster Major L. P. Nichols,
Judge Advocate Norman H. Farquhar,
Surgeon George II. Halberstadt, Or
dinanco Officer Major W. W. Inglis,
Aides de Camp Captain Fred r. Drake
and Captain Fred Snyder.
Officers of the Third Brigade will
thus resent the insults which they al
lege have been heaped on General
Goblin The designations were hast
ened when the Thirteenth regiment
was ordered home, owing to the mix
up which then occurred. General
Millar ordered Colonel Watres to re-
port to' General Schall of the First
brigade. General Schall ordered Col
onel WatTes to move the following
morning, but designated no destina-
tion. The following morning Col
onel Watres reported to General
Schall, who transferred the Thirteenth
back to the Third brigade, under Gen
eral Goblin. The latter then ordered
the regiment home.
This order, transferring the Thir-
teenth regiment from the Third to the
First brigade for seemingly no pur-
pose whatever, is what finally prompt
ed General Goblin and his staff
to resign. They allege that it was
merely an opportunity for Genera.
Miller to "snub' General Goblin, who
had disbanded all his forces but the
Thirteenth regiment. -
