BOSTON BADLY SHAKEN UP.
A Powder gag In an Old Fort
Explodes, Killing N and
Five.

Boston, Sept. s.--One of the pow
der magazines at old Fort Winthrop,
on Governors island, upper Boston
harbor, blew up Sunday evening with
a defamation that was heard at points
20 miles away. The explosion Is sup
posed to have been caused by boys
setting fires on the island. One dead
man and five injured were brought to
the city by the police boat, and while
it is believed hat this is the extent of
the casualties, it is possible that 9th
ers may be found suffering from the
force of the conclusion. The dead
mans name Is Gotten, but further
than this nothing is known about
him.
The force of the explosion is shown
by the fact that some great blocks of
stone were hurled several hundred
yards, while one of the largest was
sent into the air and came down
through the citadel in the center of
the fort, making q hole large enough
to drive a team of horses through.
All over the island the effects of the
explosion are visible, while in East
Boston, South Boston and in the city
proper the conclusion was severe
enough to break windows and shake
buildings to their found 1tions.

Port-au-Prince, Sept. S.-The Ger
man gunboat Panther arrived here
September 5, and received instruc-
tions from the German government to
capture the Firminist gunboat Crete-a-
Pierrot. n left Immediately for
Gonaives, the sea- of the Firminist
government. The PANTHER found the
Crete-a-Pierrot in the harbor of
Gonaives, and the commander of the
German gunboat informed Admiral
killick, on the Crete-a-Pierrot, that he
must remove his crew and surrender
his ship in five minutes. Admiral Kill
lick asked hat this time be extended
to Is minutes. This request was grant
ed, on lie condition that the arms
and ammunition on board the Crete
a-Pierrot should be abandoned when
her crew left her.
The crew of the rete-a-Pierrot lett
amid great disorder. At the end Of
Is minutes the Panther SEN a small
boat, carrying an officer and 20 sail
ors, who were to take possession OF
the Firminist gunboat. When these
men had arrived at a point about thir-
ty yards from the Crete-a-Pierrot,
flames were seen to break out on
board of her. She had been fired by
her crew before they left the harbor.
The Panther then fired on the Crete-a-
Pierrot until she vas completely i'm
mersed. Thirty shots all told were
fired
There is much feeling here against
the Firminists, and their cause is con-
sidered to be a bad one. Soldiers are
leaving here to attack st. Marc. Port
au-Prince is calm.

WILL AWAIT A REPORT.
Washington Government VIII Hear
What Minister Powell Has to Say.

v WV Will ICoL
what Minister Powell Has to Say.
Washington, Sept. 8.-The destruc-
ton of the Crete-a-Pierrot will with
out doubt be made the subject of an
official report to this government by
United States Minister Powell, who
is now at Port-au-Prince. Pending
the receipt of that report there is, in
the opinion of officials here who have
kept in touch with affairs, little
likelihood of any action by the state
department., and, indeed, Judging from
the character of the instructions
transmitted through the navy depart
ment to Commander McCrea, of the
Machias, there will be little DISPOSE
ton to question the business of the
treatment accorded Admiral Killick.
While the state department has not
adopted the German view that Killick
was a pirate, it has, or the basis of
its own instructions to Commander
McCrea. never admitted his right to
interfere with foreign shipping. 1t,
however, did entertain a doubt as to
whether Killick was privileged to OPP
crate as he did in the case of the
Markomannia, provided the seizure
was made within the three-mile limit
and also within Haytien waters.
However, any question that might
arise as to the legality of the action
of the commander of the Panther is
one that the state department proba-
bly, will regard as solely between the
government of Germany and of Hay
ii, and as the latter government has
already denounced nillick as a pirate
and had besought Commander McCrea
to seize his ship, it is certain to make
NO issue on this matter.

VIII Start q wv

Mississippi's first brewery is to be
built at Webb, a little station on the
Yazoo & Mississippi Valley road in
Tallahatchie county. AS vet the
prohibitionists do not believe it, and
they are Mortified at the idea of beer
being manufactured in a State where
the farmers are not even permitted
to make wine from their own grapes
on a scale larger than for family use.
The promoters of the brewery, how
ever, are going actively forward with
their preparations, and feel confident
that a sufficient patronage will be
secured for its operation. Many
years ago a few small breweries were
located in Mississippi, but since the
State has been coquetting with pro-
hibition there has not been a single
brewery or distillery in operation.
