NAPHTHA CARS BLEW up.
Frightful Catastrophe in Railroad
Yards at Pittsburg.

Pittsburg, Pa, May 1.-THE Shera-
den yards of the Panhandle railroad
was the scene last evening of one of
the most disastrous explosions and
fire known in this section for many
years. A score of lives were lost and
about 200 persons were so badly
burned that. according to the judy
ment of physicians in attendance, rs
per cent of them will die from the eff.
fects of their injuries.
The cause of the catastrophe was
the explosion of train of naphtha
cars which were being switched at
the yard, and In the switching the rear
car telescoped a car forward. The
leaking naphtha ignited from switch
light. causing an explosion. which
threw the flames fifty feet high.

John J. Carton, of Flint, speaker of
the Michigan house of representatives,
has received and refused the offer of a
position as appraiser in the New York
customs house at a salary of 1880 per
year. In spite of the fact that it is a
life position Mr.. Carton declined the
appointment. 1t is safe to say that a
man who has the nerve and the con-
fidence in himself, as well as the fond
ness for his state, to refuse an offer of
that kind to remain a citizen of the
state of his choice will be watched with
no small interest and degree of ex-
pectancy by its other citizens.
An interesting experiment has been
inaugurated by Mr.. A. M. Todd the
Peppermint King of Kalamazoo.
He proposes to give to each of the EN-
ployees of his three ranches whose
wages amount to fifty dollars or more a
year the same dividend on each dollars
salary as the stockholders receive for the
same number of dollars of stock held.
The plan seems to be different from any
profit sharing scheme yet tried and its
operation will be watched with no small
amount of interest. Mr.. Todd himself
says that he intends to enlarge upon it
if it works as successfully as he expects

1t is said that reparation may be
demanded of Italy for the treatment of

recently at Venice. The official report

In justice to the American navy and to
the entire American people the re-

navy officer can scarcely afford to have
the cloud of such an affair hanging
over him and the American people have
right to the entire truth in the matter.

After being leader of Tammany Hall
for nearly half a year, Lewis Nixon re-
signed Wednesday with the remark
that he could not retain his self-respect
and remain the leader Of Tammany
Hall. Mr.. Nixon, month or two ago,
had an article in the Saturday Evening
Post on the young man in politics.
Then it was the duty of all men to get
into the party organization and work.
Evidently he had not at that time really
discovered all that that might mean
when the organization is of the corrupt
kind that Tammany is. Another arti-
Gle would be quite timely now in view
of Mr.. Nixon's statement that he is out
of politics and is glad of it. After all
most people will be inclined to sympa-
thize with Mr.. Nixon-but it was de-
cidedly warm roast on Tammany Hall.
While the question of the readjust-
ment of the rates is the one which is
giving the members of Modern Wood
men of America the greatest trouble at
present, the Maccabees of Michigan are
struggling with an expansion pro-
position which is using up consider
able amount of the grey matter of their
order. From present appearance. the
expansionists in the order, who are fol-
lowing the lead of the founder Of the
order, Major Boynton, of Port Huron,
are largely in the majority. If they are
successful in the contest the result will
be the extension of the business of the
Great Camp of Michigan beyond the
limits of this state and into healthful
portions of any of the other states. The
order has had wonderfully successful
history in Michigan and should do as
well outside the domains of this state.
1t is certainly to be hoped that the ques-
ton will be settled for the best interests
of this order which holds the welfare of
so many hundreds of Michigan families
in its keeping.

Joe Kamai Sold Beer to Special
Officer and Is Heavily
Fined.

Judge Wilcox of the District Court
does not share the opinion of certain
officials of the upper court that the
testimony of so-called police Inform
ers' is not to be relied upon, or that
they are not to be made good use of
by the authorities. Judge Wilcox de-
clared himself in favor of evidence OBJ
tanned by "informers'' against violators
of the law, especially when corrobora-
tive testimony was adduced from the
regular detectives.
Joe Kamai, Hawaiian, recently
started a Kakaako social club at the
rear of the Honolulu Iron Works prem
ises secured Federal license and then
proceeded to sell liquors without the
formality of taking out Territorial
license. A ladder placed against the
rear fence of the Iron Works served as
a. convenient means for passing over
bottles and glasses of beer to the en-
ployees there and the business was
thriving until nipped by Detective Dan
Renear and the special Japanese officer
Nebo. The latter was sent into the
place a few nights ago to purchase
drinks. Beer was passed over the fence
to him and money paid for the same.
R.enear watched the proceeding and
then arrested the proprietor.
Attorney Robinson for the defense
rallied at 'fnformers." referring to their
testimony as untenable and untrust-
worthy saying that an informer was a
being not to be considered with men
in the ordinary walks of life, in the
same breath. When he finished Wilcox
took the wind out his sails:
II don't share the opinion of other
judicial minds with reference to inform
ers,'' said he. They declare an in
former cannot be believed and that he
is paid to secure conviction. without
informers criminals would be able to
ply their craft without much fear of
being disturbed. 1 suppose that those
who rail against informers would be-
lieve that the burglar who was caught
by one was unjustiy prosecuted. A bur-
glar might get up in court and for de- |
Tense say, Why judge L was about to t
break into the bank yonder when this
informer discovered me and prevented
me from getting in. He ought to have
been in uniform so that would have
known who he was. And 1 suppose, !
too, that an informer ought to strip
naked when he goes into a place with
money so that the detective outside T
could be absolutely sure that he did
not keep the money in his pockets
Mr.. Kamai was fined 5000 and costs.
