STREET CARS COLLIDE.

smash-Up-NOne Killed, Hut
Many Injured.

Chicago, July ia Wentworth av-
enue car, carrying 100 passengers,
and a Thirty-first street car, with so
passengers, collided at their inter
section, while running at a rapid
rate. Nearly every passenger in the
smaller car, which was knocked from
the track, was cut or bruised, but the
most serious injury was a broken ell
bow sustained by a woman passen-
ger. That several passengers were
not killed is considered remarkable.

A POOR SHOW OF INTEREST.
The Finale of July Options Left the
Trade with Little TO
Talk About.

Chicago, July 16.-Corn opened with
a poor show of interest. The admit
ted finale of the powerfully infiuen-
tial corner in July options left the
trade with little to talk about save
how it all happened. Tuesdays Sc
we're break in all grains, and the an
nouncement by the Gates clique h a
their interests in July was at an end,
had it's effect in the foreign markets.
Prices abroad were all lower, and
with fairly favorable early weather,
there was little show of a rally in
corn.

ANOTHER MINE HORROR.
Two Powder Magazines in a Utah
Mine Blow Up at the l.
2oo-Foot Level.
INVOLVES DALY-WEST AND ONTARIO.
Several Hundred Men in the Mines
when the Explosion Occurred
Many Dead Have Been Taken Out,
but the Nnmbe Killed Can Not
he Estimated at Present.

Park City, Utah, July 16.-Two pow
der magazines at the 1,200-foot level
of the Daly-West mine exploded
about one o'clock Wednesday morn
ing, causing a loss of life that at
present can not be estimated nor
even guessed at. At four o'clock n
men had been taken GU of the mine
dead, and several others had been
recovered in n half-dazed condition.
These were all brought out through
the Ontario mine shaft, which is a
mile distant from the Daly-West, in
which the explosion occurred. The
1,200-footlevel of the Daly-West CORE
spends to and is connected by tun-
mel with the Ontario. In the DAILY
West mine between 100 and $50 men
were at work. In the Ontario were
nearly 100, it is believed. 1t is not
known how many of these are dead,
but the disaster extends to the On
tario, as the noxious gases that have
been freed are known to be the cause
of several deaths. The presence of
these gases leads many miners to be-
lieve hat the powder was bnrned,
and that the explosion was not the
chief cause of the disaster.
There are two powder magazines at
the l,200-foot level of the Daly-West,
one at each side of the shaft, with a
capacity of from one to two cars of
powder each. A car of powder was
added to the supply within the past
few days.
Three dead men have been taken
out of the Ontario shaft. 1t is be-
lieved all three were suffocated.
The explosion was SO tremendous
that it awakened everyone within a
radius of miles. As an example of
its awful force it is said that two
horses in the ore tunnel, one and a
half miles away, were killed by it.
Women and children are ~thronging
to the Ontario shafthouse, which is
midway between Park City and the
Daly-West. Nearly all of them have
husbands or fathers in the mines,
and their grief is pitiable. All of the
doctors in town are at the mines.
They are doing what they "a to re
suscitate the unconscious men "a
they are taken out.
Members of a relief party who
went into the Ontario mine shortly
after the explosion occurred have not
yet returned, and fears are enter
tanned for their safety.

ever, assert that there are IL OF Is
still unaccounted for. The fumes
from the explosion were overpower-

John Mclaughlin, one of the rescu-
ers, who went down the second time
to help, died on being brought to the
surface. He was a~sphyxiated. Eight
miners escaped through the Anchor

Say the "Corner" is Not Broken.

Chicago, July 16.-The Daily News
learned from trustworthy sources
that $4,000, 900 was behind the deal
which was engineered by Samuel c.
Scotch, of the Harris-Gates firm.
The principal hacker, according to
the News, was Daniel Reid, the tin
plate magnate, who put up half the
cash for the corner.
Conservative spectators and COM
mission men pointed to the action OF
the corn pit Wednesday as indicative
that the owner was not broken. With
such gossip floating, many of the
crowd were inclined to believe that
the next two weeks would yet show
queer business in the corr pit.

changed the sentence from the gallows to
the fusillade. Moyan was a young man
who had only recently been married, and
the appeals in his behalf were so strong
that 1t was proposed to allow him to es-
cape. but II is said that he refused and
aeclared he would die with his friends. On
october 25 Lafreniere, Moyan and Milhet
were accordingly shot to death in the
Place des Armes by n file Of Spanish
grenadiers, after their sentence had been
proclaimed by the town crier. Masan was
sent to Havana and imprisoned in Moro
castle, and the sentences inflicted on the
others were carried out by O'Reilly, though
Masan, Jean Milhet, Doucet, BoisBlanc,
Poupet and Petit were afterward pardoned
by the king of Spain. The ~treaeherous
