Board of Pardors.

A new era for the Board of Pardons
commenced February 9th. when Gov
ernor Peabody presided for the first
time. In his message the governor
recommended that the board be ahol
ished, and when the meeting was
called to order last night he made a
short address. outlining his policy in
regard TO pardons. He said that when
man had been clearly convicted he
saw no reason why the sentence
should not stand He would consider
pardons only when new matter came
up after tho conviction. He did not
approve. he said, OF pardoning on ac-
count of the mere fact that they were
in jail for n long time. 1t was the
business Of the courts to pass the sea
tence
In spite OF the fact tha, the COVER.
nor did not approve Of its existence.
Secretary Stonaker seemed deter
mined TO convince him that the Board
OF Pardons was not useless. He pre-
sented n long list Of applications. and
the session lasted until nearly 1880.
when just two cases were reported ia.

An,I.Trus. Legislation Certain.

A New York Herald special says that
John ID. Rockefeller. or wicked part
ner." has supplied the sensation OF the
hour and has made II absolutely GER
tain that the department of commerce
bill will pass with the amendment in
serted by the conference committee OF
Congress providing for publicity on the
lines advocated by Attorney General
Knox.
There is n great deal OF mystery re-
garding the alleged Rockefeller tele-
grams TO senators asking them to de-
feat the publicity feature of the depart
ment OF commerce bill. and most OF the
members of the Senate discredit the
report on general principles. saying
that Rockefeller is too adrolt a man
To resort TO such open methods In infiu-
encing legislation. but there Is no room
for successful denial OF the fact that
telegrams were sent to both members
OF the Senate and House. and they were
signed John ID. Rockefeller"
II Is believed her. that Rockefeller
will not deny that the ,elegrams were
sent The only good denial now
could do would be TO raise n question
OF yeracity between the source from
which the first news came and Rock
efeiler. But that would not serve the
purpose OF the Standard OF Company.

an accumulation Of natural gas in
the cellar beneath the section Of the
factory destroyed. There were q score
of men at work in the several depart
ments i nthat section of the plant, end
scarcely one escaped injury Of some
sort. The explosion was terrible, COM
pletely wrecking n section of the build
ing, fifty by n hundred feet and two
stories in height. The dead and In
jured Cere buried in the ruins and
the peril of those yet living was in
creased by flames following the exnio-
