DYNAMITING IN SALoNICA.
Ottoman Rank Destroyed and Other
 Buildings Attacked.

Salonica, European Turkey, April 30 The Ottoman bank here was destroy ed by dynamite to-day. The Turkish postoffice and other buildings were also attacked, resulting in a panic, during which two men were killed and two persons were injured. A detachment of two thousand additional troops has
 since arrived here from Smyrna. Quiet is restored. 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 bombs. It is thought that the strong room resisted

 New York, April 3O.--The Association for the Protection Of Commerce of the port of New York, embracing eighty towboat owners and transportation companies, held meeting at which. it was unanimously voted to tie up the tugboats immediately rather than to accede to the demands of the engineers for an increase in wages and shorter hours. This association has nothing to do with the railroad tugs, the owners of which tonight agreed to afbitra- tion.
 | Out of the two hundred or two hun dred and fifty tugboats operating in 1 New York harbor and along the near by coast, only about twenty-five will be in operation tomorrow morning and dS d ISSulI O1 et klC~Ap 1bOONt HSo"V ihASAA will be temporarily thrown out of ern- poyment. The towboats in commission tomorrow will be worked by non- union men and in some cases by the owners themselves.
 All of the tugs used in the immigrant service are in operation. concession having been made by which these tugs
 will not be tied up The boats in the | immigration service which run from the battery to Ellis island will continue in
 commission, an arrangement for an in-
 crease in pay having been made by the | owners.
 | An agreement to submit the demands 1 to arbitration was reached at a confer- ence this afternoon between the general managers of the marine departments of the New York Central and Hudson River railroad, the Lehigh Valley, Erie, New York, New Haven and Hartford, Baltimore and Ohio and Long Island railroads and the Central railroad of New Jersey and two delegate engineers from the marine departments of the railroads named. The, meeting began early in the afternoon and ended late
 tonight The question of wages, time

THE DISASTER AT FRANK
WAs DUE TO 4 GREAT ROCK |ts-., SLIDE.

95-NenrIy All the Imprisoned Minors
 Abic to Cut Thsfr Way Out " orls to
 Avert Flood Danger-Further Slides
 Eenred.
 Frank, N. W. T., April 30--The cause
 of yesterdays disaster here was huge
 rock slide from the top of Turtle moun-
 tain. There was no explosion. The slide
 was os such vast dimensions that the cloud of dust was taken for smoke, and the minor slides coming down were talk en for Inside explosions. The whole east
 end of the mountain. extending from the Tiple east, has gone out. It was 4,400 feet high and slid across the entire valley, blocking the track to the French mine. This track is about forty feet higher than the Canadian Pacific rail- road track and is distant about three- quarters of mile from the mine en- trance.
 The slide extends from point about 200 feet east of Frank station to a point one and half miles east This track is covered with rock of all sizes up to that of a large double-deck boarding car
 Of the seventeen entombed miners,
 fifteen got out without injury, and two
 are dead from suffoeation. It proved that those in the mine were safer than those outside of it. The inside workings of the mine are intact. and no explosion or sign of gas was felt by the miners. They worked their own way out through
 thirty feet of rock. timbering as they went. Plenty Of air is now going into the mines, and large gangs of men are
 at work, rushing through the rebuilding of railway and telegraph lines. The Canadian Pacific railway is ar- | ranging to cut a waterway through
 where the river is blocked up. in order to avoid danger of a flood.
 About ten houses in the east end of the town were destroyed and entire families wiped out. A. Leitch, his wife and four Of his children were killed, and three escaped. The youngest child was thrown out of the house in some way and not injured.
 There is fear that the whole of the re- maining side of the mountain will come down. in which case there will be noth- ing left of the country east oe Blair more. Many small lodges of rock con- tinue to come down from the mountain, and 1t Is a hard matter to get men to work for fear of a second catastrophe The present estimate of the number of persons killed is ninety-five.

BROOKLYN BRIEFS

Patrick Cronan, who is employed in Bridgeport, is spending a few days at his home on North Leonard street
 A well known Brooklyn man has learned by experience what crooked ness there is in the policy game as con ducted in this city. For some time he has been playing the game and losing much money in doing so. About a week or so ago after losing seven ol eight dollars each day for five days of the week, on the last day he picked the right numbers and won. He should have received $S0, but he did not receive cent for the person con. ducting the policy gam> wouldn't give it to him. He intends to ask a law yer's advice.
 This beautiful weather of early spring should remind the residents or Brooklyn that they should purchase some of the fine seeds which are Ioa sale at A. 0. Walkers drug store, too bank street. This is just the proper 1lme @ to plant the seeds in your garoen. me seeds which are sold at Walker 5 are different from those purchased d. otner places. They were not left over rom last year. but were bought or fresh stock this spring. Just give them trial. The price Is very req sonable.

One thing we make it a point in regard to our shoes (They Must Wear Well) aside from fit and style, which is to be ex- pected in any up-to-date shoe store, we insist on the wearing qualities.
 II is not the highest priced or the most extensively advcr- tised brand of shoe that wears the best. (We have found that out by experience.) It is the shoe that is made from good fresh stock, and that is con- structed on honest principles that will give good service to the Wearer.
