DYNAMITE ExPLODES.
Two Men Instantly Killed and Cars
 Blown to Pieces.

Bay City, Mich. September 13.-Clar- ence D. Hopper and Roy Boucher, switch man of the Michigan Central railroad. were instantly killed by an explosion of dynamite in a car in the yards at West Bay City today. Robert Robin. engineer; William Noble, fireman; and John Craile. conductor, were injured, the latter so severely that he may die. All of the train men were residents of this city.
 The explosion occurred as a switch en- zine was making up a train. The engine backed down upon several cars, the first containing a thousand pounds of dyna- mite, a consignment of Lee-Metford rifles, and a quantity of reduced charged shells for indoor rife practice. It is said that the force with which 1t struck the car, exploded the dynamite Another report is that one of the shells exploded and set off the dynamite.
 Hopper's body was badly cut by flying steel and Boucher was decapitated, his body being terribly mangled. A big hole was torn in the ground by the explosion. a score of freight cars, many loaded, were demolished and nearly 300 houses in the vicinity suffered broken windows. Several were so badly wrecked as to be uninhabitable. The shock was felt in Es- sexville. three miles from the scene.

CONNECTS COINED
 MONEY IN PRISON
ANOTHER EXPOSURE IN PENN SYLVANIA STATE PENITENTlA- RY, WHERE THERE IS BELlEV. ED TO BE COLLISION.

Philadelphia, September 13.-Following closely upon the exposure of gross ir- regularities in the cigar department of the eastern state penitentiary, came the announcement tonight that the illegal coinage of minor silver pieces has been carried on by convicts in the institution. The fact that such a scheme had been public by George Vaux, Jr., one of the prison inspectors, who summoned news paper men to his home and voluntarily made the disclosure.
 The discovery was made several days ago and United States secret service of ficials were immediately called in. Their investigation, it is learned is still in pro- gress, their object being to learn whether there was collusion between the con- victs and employees of the institution. It is believed the discovery of counterfeiters in the prison was the result of the in- vestigation now being carried on in the place as a result of the irregularities in the cigar department. These irregularities became public matter last week, and pending an investigation, Warden Daniel
 
 cigar department were temporarily re- lieved from duty.
 It is alleged that thousands of cigars made by convicts are unaccounted for, that thousands of them did not contain the internal revenue stamps and that in many instances the law requiring prison made cigars to be stamped Convict made" was ignored.
 Later in the night further details of the counterfeitng scheme leaked out. These were to the effect that five men were engaged in the work, the head of the counterfeiters being a Philadelphian now completing his second term for this of- fense. The others were professional crim- inals. who secured through the plumbing departments of the prison the necessary metal made of solder tin and ground glass. The molds, it is believed, were made of plaster of Paris. scraped from the walls of cells. Some of the coins got into circulation. but in what manner has not yet been fully determined. There Is belief that certain employees, who did favors for the prisoners such as mail- ing letters, In violation of the rules of the institution, were given the bogus money as tips and that they innocently passed if into circulation,

RUSSIA OFFERS
 NEW PROPOSITION
IMPOSES FURTHER CONDITIONS ON CHINA PRIOR TO EVACUA- TON OF MANCHURlA-CHlN THINKS THEM REASONABLE.


 Pekin, Saturday, September 12.-Delay- ed in transmission.)- )-Russia has pre- scented to the Chinese government a new scheme for evacuation, originally fixed for October 8 and proposing certain new conditions in addition to most of the conditions included in the last scheme. Russia now proposes to evacuate New Chwang and Mukden province October 8, Kirin province four months later and the third province a year later. Among the new conditions Russia stipulates that she shall maintain military posts on the road from Tsitsihar capital of Hei Lung Kiang, to Blagovestchensk and on the Sungari river.
 The reason Russia gives for maintain ing these posts Is that they are neces- sary to protect the commerce of the rail- road. There Is vaguely worded clause prohibiting heavy duties on goods trans ported by the railway which the diplo- mats construe as exempting Russian goods transported on the railway from the surtax which the British, Japanese and American treaties substitute for the liken duties. The scheme also contains pro- vision that Chinese troops shall protect the branches of the Russo-Chinese bank when necessary.
 Prince Ching. president of the foreign board. has informed the ministers that he considers the Russian conditions 10 be very reasonable.

SCARE SUBSIDIES.
Police of Scranton Unable to Locate
 Mafia Agents.

Scranton, Pa, September 13.-Carbon- dale's Mafia scare has already died out When Mozzagari and Conoir, the alleged agents. were arraigned this morning be- fore Mayor ONeill, not one of the com mittee appeared against them.
 The Carbondale police have hunted for the several members of the committee which made complaint that Mozzagari and Conoir were squeezing money out of the Italian miners for the Mafia headquar- ters in New York, but as yet have been unable to locate a single one of them.
 It is thought they were visited during the night and induced to leave town till the scare subsidies.

SEN NATE APPROVES
 SOTOS' PROPOSAL
COLOMBIAN SENATOR WANTED PRESIDENT MARRooUiN TO AP- POINT ANTIsEcEssIoNIsT GOV. ERNoR FOR PANAMA.

Bogota. September 13.-A proposal made by Senor Perez Sotos to ask the ex- ecutive to appoint an anti-secesslonist government in Panama has been approved by the senate. Speakers in the senate said that the recent appointment of Senor Obaldia, who Is favorable to a canal treaty, as governor of Panama. was dan gerous for the national integrity.
 President Marroquin succeeded later in calming the congressman. It appears that he was able to give them satisfactory rea- sons for Governor Obaldias appointment.
 The Bogota government appears to realize the imminent peril of the Isthmus of Panama declaring it's independence. Senor Deroux, representative for Pan- anna constituency. recently delivered a sensational speech in the house. Among other things, he said: Tn Panama tho bishops, governors, magistrates, military chiefs and their subordinates have been and are foreign to the department 1t seems that the government with surpris- ing tenacity wishes to exclude the isth- mus from all participation in public af- fairs. As regards international canal dan gers in the isthmus, all l can say is that if these dangers exist they are due 10 the conduct of tfe national government which is in the direction of reaction. If the Colombian government will not listen to the indications made with view to preventing disaster the responsibility will rest with it alone Not a natve of Pan anna Is obeying the reactionary laws"
 The bill dealing with the settlement of foreign claims arising out of the revolu- ton has met with no opposition in the legislature. It seems that congress after the recent political discussions, has lost all energy and has entirely forgotten Panama canal matters.
