government was looking about for
location this valley was enc of the best
known localities in the country as
health resort. No pains were taken,
though, to bring that fact to the no
tice of the authorities, and the sani-
tarium went to Fort Bayard. Il practic-

institution has new passed the expert

NITRO GLYCERINE
FACTORY BLOWS UP
The Entire Plant of Dozan Buildings
Destroyed.

Bolivar. N. Y, July 2O.-Thc plant of
Junction, near Bradford, was destroyed
by an explosion yesterday that was
heard in Bradford, 80 miles away SeV-
eraI tons of nitro. slycerinc and dyna-
mite went off, and a great hole was
torn i'll the earth where the factory
and storage magazine stood. This
plant covered len acres, and was the
largest in the northern oil fields. Sew
eial men were = " k in the frctory,
but ali escaped death. The trouble be-
gan in the room where the nitrate G.
soda was stored. and the employees
We're warned to fee for their lives. The
first explosion wrecked the factory and
stock buildings, and the second one
wrecked the storage magazine, where
the big stock of nitro glycerine and
dynamite was kept. The explosion de-
stroyed a dozen buildings.
During the last twenty years the
Rock Glycerine Company has had ten
factories blown up and more than a
dozen employees killed. The Howard
Junction factory was located in ra-
vine miles from any settlement. The
first small explosion that started the
trouble yesterday was caused by spon-
taneous combustion. The loss will be
very heavy. as insurance companies do
not rate nitro -glycerine factories. The
big plant will be rebuilt at once.

Baltimore, July 2G.-In Il terrific fight

GENERAL TRAFFIC

All Roads, Especially in the

Shortage of Cars Feared W the

tled-Provision Shipments.

Chicago, July 20.-The volume of traf-
Louis is well maintained. the aggregate
tonnage on all lines exceeding by
large margin that of the same period
last year. in spite of the anthracite coal
strike and the small grain traffic.
The middle division of the Pennsyl-
vania during June carried the heaviest
freight traffic in its history. This goes
to show. in way, how dense the traffic
on all lines really is. The roads passing
through Buffalo are also doing a heavy
business west from that center.
The freight is of a general character
The traffic men are becoming rather
uneasy over the question as to how
they are going to handle the expected
large business when crops begin to
move and when the labor difficulty in
the anthracite region is settled.
There is big shortage of hard coal
at all points and they fear that the
rush will be enormous. The roads in
the central district have been accumu-
la ting a good deal of soft coal at IN
dianapolis during the last fortnight or
more, and the movement to that point
aggregates hundreds of cars. The car
situation cannot be called cramped. al
though none of the roads has a surplus

a half million dollars in 1902. Thus
the reduction in the value of the eX-
ports of breadstuffs, clearly traceable
to the drouth, was: Corn and corn
meal, 81 million dollars; oats and oat
meal. s million dollars; total, rs million
dollars.
Two other marked reductions in the
expectations of the products of agri-
culture are beef, including live cattle.
and cotton. The expectation of live
cattle has fallen from 401 thousand in
1901 to 319 in 1902: the expectation of
fresh beef from $50 million pounds in
1901 to 300 million pounds in 1902, and
the total value of cattle and beef pro-
ducts has fallen from 80 million dollars
in 1901 to SO millions in 1902, loss OF
IL million dollars. In cotton the reduc-
ticn is wholly due to the reduced prices,
the quantity exported for the year be-
ing 160 million pounds greater than in
the preceding year, while the value
was "A million dollars less than in the
preceding year.

due in a large measure to increase in
the home demand upon our manufact-
urers, and in part to the decreased de-
mand abroad. The principal reduction
In the export trade of the year will
then stand: Corn and corn meal and
oats and oat meal, IS million dollars,
due chiefly to the drouth Of 1901: beef
and beef cattle, II millions, due to in
creased home demand and shortage in
material for feed OF stock; cotton "a
millions, due to reduction in prices:
manufactures of iron and steel 20 mil
lions, due to increased home demand
and decreased foreign demand.
Thus in four items of exports-corn
and cats. beef and beef cattle, raw cot
ton, and manufactures of iron and
steel, the reduction for the fiscal year
will amount to about 100 million dol
lars, While the total reduction in all
exports is about 30 million dollars thus
indicating that the general exports
aside from these four classes,
which conditions were abnormal, will
show satisfactory growth when the
complete figures Of the fiscal year are

A SUMMER TRAGEDY
Time Has Exposed the Perfdy Of
Some Panama Hats.

For generations past the diSnihed
and expensive Panama straw hat has
been held to be immaculate. and till
recently has adorned only the most
aristocratic heads. But the twentieth
century, while engaged in general
smashing of old ideas, has succeeded
in bringing contumely and disgrace
on this most cherished and hitherto
irreproa chable institution. During the
present summer more imprecationS
have been uttered and more epithets
directed against the great family Oh
Panama straw hats than against any
other distinguished line of the haber-
dashers stock.
The fall of the Panama hat may be
attributed to it's own arrogance and
pride, for the real thing, the real Pan
anna hat, is as virtuous as ever IN the

conditions beyond appreciation or reali-
zation to any but people of long exper-

hourly. There is absolutely not the
slightest chance of the stopping of the

costly of any in the history of the great
