THINGS BLOWN UP
AT SALONICA
The Bulgarians Resorting to Use Of
Bombs.

Salonica, European Turkey, April 80.
The Ottoman bank here was de-
stroyed by dynamite today. The Turk
ish postoffice and other buildings were
also attacked, resulting in a panic, dur
ing which two men were killed and two
persons were injured. A detachment
of 1000 additional troops has since ar
rived here from Smyrna.
The attack on the bank was carried
out by two bands of men. One of them
attacked the guard on duty at the bank
and the other hurled the ocnlbs. 1t is
thought that the strong room resisted
the explosion. Several of the men who
took part in the attack have been ar
rested.
The destruction of the French steam
er Guadalquiver by an explosion while
leaving this port on Tuesday was evil
IDENTIFY caused by a bomb. A Bulgarian
has been arrested in connection with
the outrage. In an encounter with
Turkish troops yesterday at Nevrokop,

were killed and fourteen were made
prisoners. There was also a serious en-
counter near Djumabala. where band

ST. Louis, Mo-, April 30.-The build
ings of the Louisiana Purchase exposi-
ton were today formally dedicated tc
their purpose with all possible pomp.
In every way save one the exercises
were an unequivocal success, and this
would be difficult to imagine a more
diSagreeable day. The wind blew
fiercely from the west, sending great
clouds of dust whirling into the faces
of the troops as they marched past the
president, at times so nearly binding
The president that it was we'll nigh
impossible for him to see across the
street on which the troops were march
ing. Add to this a temperature which
sought for the marrow ar generally
reached it. The ladies, who on the
strength of the warm weather yester-
day came in summer dresses to the re-
viewing stand, suffered keenly, and but
for the thoughtfulness OF the officers
commanding the guard thrown around
the reviewing stand, who provided theI7I
with blankets, many of them would
have been compelled to leave the place.
Both President Roosevelt and eX-Presi-
dent Cleveland remained in the review
ing stand exposed to the icy wind until
the end of the parade, although their
faces were blue and their limbs stiff
fened by co4d.
Conditions in the liberal arts build
ing, where the dedication ceremonies
proper were held. were little better.
There was no wind, but there were
manifold drafts and dampnass INSOFAR
able from newly erected buildings pro-
duced a penetrating chill that was un-
comfortable to a degree. The effect
of this was evident in all of the
speeches, as the speakers commencing
their speeches in clear tones were with
out exception given over to catarrhal
affections as they finished.
Despite this heavy handicap, how
ever, the ceremonies proper were splen-
didly handled. and the programme was
carried out to the letter. The police
work was excellent, slnd the patrolling
of the avenues and passage ways by
tine First Missouri infantry was ably
done, and all possible consideration

The parade, which took half the morn

before the president than had been eX-

fifteen minutes behind the scheduled
time when he was escorted by the
committee into the liberal arts build

as that he was compelled to take his

AN OFFICIAL REPORT.

Vancouver. B. c.. April 3O.-The fol-
lowing report received here from Will
liam Pearce, inspector of surveys, sent
to Frank by the department of
the interior, constitutes the latest Off
cial news from Frank: Now that the
excitement is partially over there is no
doubt in the mind of anyone that the
disaster was caused by a huge land
slide, and that there was no eruption
nor explosion. There are eighty-three
known dead, OF whom fifteen were
women and fifteen children. There is
no further danger from floods through
the damming OF the river. The slide
is about four thousand feet long, ex-
tending from the top of Turtle noun
tain westerly. The slide extends
across the valley for one and a quarter
miles from the base of Turtle noun
tain. The debris is spread out in a fan
shaped extent, and SO that the mass Of
rocks is nearly two miles wide. There
is no trace of the river for one mile,
but the water is now going through the
rock as fast as it is coming down.

and was rapidly increasing in price

There is no geological expert resident
in the town, and it is impossible to as
certain exactly the true character of
the force eXerted, but judging from
the evidences brought in by many who
have been scouting around the piles of
rock ard debris. many are inclined to
the belief that II was a huge mountain

some subterranean explosion of gas,
which is known to exist in large guam
titles underneath this section of the
country.
The nature o: the rock of which Tur-

the limestone variety. Another theory
advanced by many of the mining men
of the town is that the limestone cliff
had been undermined by some subter-
ranean breach of the Old Mans river.

OF which were the Stacking of the lime

these theories have so far been borne
out. but the general opinion now seems

Mr.. CLEVELAND''S
ST. LOUIS SPEECH
His Tribute TO Thomas Jsf-
fersOn
Though He Saw An Obstacle In the
Constitution, He Foresaw An Oppor-
tunity for Expansion That Could Not
Be Passed by.

St. Louis, April 30.-Former President
Cleveland in his address at the dedica-
ton of the Louisiana Purchase exposi-
tior building was at a disadvantage by
reason of the extremely inclement
weather.
Mr.. Cleveland said in part:
Mr. President and Ladies and Gentle
men:
The impressIveness of this occasion
is greatly enhanced by reason of an at
mosphere of prophecys fulillment
which surround it. The thought is in
our minds that we are amid awe-in-
spring surroundings, where we may
see and feel things foretold a century
ago. We are here in recognition of the
one hundredth anniversary of an event
which doubled the area of the young
American nation, and dedicated a new
and wide domain to American progress
and achievement. The treaty whose
completion we today commemorate.
was itself a prophecy of our youthful
nations mighty growth and develop
ment. At it's birth prophets in waiting
joyously foretold the happiness which
chief actor for the United States in its
negotiation, as he signed the perfected
instrument. thus declared its effect and
far-reaching consequences:
The instrument which we have just
signed will cause no tears to be shed
1t prepares ages of happiness for in
Vulnerable generations of human crea-
lures. The Mississippi and the Mis-
souri, will see them succeed one another
truly worthy of the regard and care
of Providence in the bosom of equality
under just laws-freed from the errors
of superstition and the scourges of bad
, government"
He who represented the nation with
whom we negotiated, when he after
wards gave to the world his account
of the transaction, declared:
1.-The consequences of of the cessior
/ of LOUISIANA will extend to the most
! dis, mt posterity. 1t interests vast re-
| ric that will become by their civil
I ization and power the rivals of Europe
| before another century commences
and, warmed to enthusiasm by the de-
velopments already in view, and great
er ones promised, he added: I'VE car
not contemplate without vivid emotion
this spectacle of the happiness of the
present generation, and the certain
pledges of the prosperity of number
] less genel atoms that will follow? Al
these magnificent prospects the hear
beats with joy in the breasts of those
who were permitted to see the dawn OF
these bright days. and who are assured
that so many happy presages will be
accomplished

Hollidaysburg, Pa, April 9O.-The
extensive plant of the Crescent Powder
company. at Ganistock, about ten miles
south of here, was wrecked by four ex-
plosions this morning. OF the thirty
employees nine were killed outright, and
all the others were badly injured by
being blown about the buildings in
which they were employed. The dead:
FRANK MKEENAN,
ROSS KENNEDY,
GEORGE FAY,
ANDREW GABRIEL,
CHARLES ROSS,
WILLIAM LYONS,
GIUSEPPE MALO,
FRANK STRASSER,

The ages of the dead ranged from
| twenty to twenty-five years. Seven OF
| them were Americans and two were
! Italians. The list of injured includes
Adam Taggart of Pittsburg, the super
| intendent of the company. The first
| explosion occurred among the material
in the mixing house. blowing that
building to atoms, and also destroying
the two punching houses and the offices
Fire arose in the other buildings to
complete the chapter of horrors. The
bodies of the dead are unrecogniza BILE,

plant continued throughout the day
and no person ventured near the

We expanded by carving the wilderness
into territories and out of these states,
once they had received as permanent
settlers a sufficient number of our own
people. Being a practical nation We
have never tried to force on any sec
tion of our new territory an unsuitable
form of government merely because il
was suitable for another section under
different conditions. OF the territory
covered by the Louisiana purchase 4
portion was given statehood within 4
few years. Another portion has not
been admitted to statehood, although
a century has elapsed-although doubt
less it soon will be. In each case we
showed the practical governmental
genius of our race by devising methods
suitable to meet the actual existing
needs: not by insisting upon the appli-
cation of some abstract shibboleth to
all our new possessions alike, no mat
ter how incongruous this application
might sometimes be.
Over by far the major part of the
territory, however, our people spread

FOR
BRITISH ARMY
RECOMMENDATIONS SAID TO
HAVE BEEN MADE BY THE WAR
COMMISSION.

NEW YORK, Sept. Ga cable to the
Herald from London says: 1t is re-
ported that the war commission, in ad-
dition to that portion of its report
given to the public, made certain rec
concentrations of so wrastic a nature
in regard to the War Office that it has
not been deemed prudent to disclose
them. That department, it is recognize
ed, must be reformed, lock, stock and
barrel. The prediction is made that
before twelve months are over, the
Duke of Connaught and Lord Kitchen
err will have been ordered to attempt
the herculean task of reforming and
remodeling the War Office and the
army
The Duke, as commander in chief,
and Lord Kitchener, as his immediate
subordinate, it is thought, could work
wonders. AS brother of the King, the
Duke of Connaught is beyond the
range of social influence, and he is
known to be anxious to modernize the
army, i'm which nv is field marshal.
Lord Kitchener, on his side, is a man
of character and does not care an atom
for society influences, which have so
largely helped to keep the British army
an inefficient military organization.
If the'matter is left entirely to Kitch-
ener, with Connaught left out, it would
be necessary, in order that Kitchener
might have sufficient power, to make
him Secretary of State for War, with a
seat in the Cabinet. To appoint a
soldier secretary of war, would be
contrary to political traditions, and the
mere suggestion of such a thing is an
indication of how deeply the British
mind has been stirred by the War
Commissions condemnation of army
methods.
