MORE THAN A SCORE KILLED
Terrible Result Of an Explosion at
South Lowell, Mass.
Many Buildings Are wrecked by the
shook, which Ii Felt for Miles
City I'm . Panic.

Lowell, Mass. July 80. without
warning and In the twinkling Of an eye
probably upwards of score of persons
and possibly more were blown to death
Wednesday forenoon by an explosion
Of the United States Cartridge COM
pany's magazine on the banks Of the
Concord river. In South Lowell, three
miles from the center of the city. The
number Of injured is 30, although others
were slightly cut by glass and burned.
At two p. m. the list of dead stood at 10.
with nine missing.
Ten or a dozen wooden dwellings
which stood in the vicinity of the pow
der and dynamite storehouses were
either demolished by the explosion or
destroyed by fire, and 20 other structures
were more or less seriously damaged.
The financial loss, exclusive of that sus-
tained by the cartridge company, Is
roughly estimated at $40 900, only a small
part Of which is protected by insurance.
Cause of Explosion.
The explosion was caused by work.
men who were employed about the store
houses for several days. The build
ings owned by the company were two
small brick structures, one used for
storing dynamite and the other powder.
So powerful was the large quantity Of
explosive In storage that the shock Of
the conclusion was distinctly felt all
over northeastern Massachusetts,. In
Lowell many windows were demolished
and at points Is miles distant glass was
also shattered. The conclusion was felt
in Boston, 40 miles away, and at Exeter,
N. H., which is a greater distance from
Lowell.
City I'm q Panic.
The city was thrown into a panic
and 1t required every effort of the au-
thorities to establish and maintain any
thing like order. 1t became necessary
to summon four companies of the state
militia. Alarming reports to the effect
that over 100 persons had been killed
and injured caused widespread confu-
sion.
The wreck caused by the explosion
covers an extent of three acres. Houses,
barns and outbuildings lay in a ruined
state. some half demolished, others
hardly more than a heap OF broken tim
bers, still others smoking from the re-
cent fire.
- No More Deaths Reported.
Lowell. Mass. July 31.-No further
deaths among the injured by the
magazine explosion Of Wednesday In
South Lowell had occurred at the hos
pitfalls where those most seriously in
jured were taken. The condition of
Clarendon Goodwin, 60 years old, who
was in charge Of the United States
Cartridge company's employees at the
storehouses, Is most critical. He Is
unconscious most of the time. Mr..
Goodwin is the man who endeavored
to remedy leakage of nitroglycerin,
and whose act in pouring nitric acid
in mistake for water on the leakage Is
thought to have caused the explosion.
Allowing for possible deaths among
those injured, II Is not anticipated
that the death list will exceed 25.

burn. During the summer time and
the wet season, the road will, no
doubt, be in an impossible condition
at time but during the winter season
there is nothing to prevent it from
being an excellent road. The bridge
road which runs along the head of
the bay is in a rather unsafe condi-
ton at present. M. Schweisthal
who comes in from his farm near
Nash every day says that the bridge
road is unsafe for heavy driving, and
that the teamsters who desire to 60
to Washburn will find it to their ad-
vantage to take the other road which
though it is the longer, is much
better at this time Of the year.

Former Washburn Logger to do Bio
Business.
GOES TO LITTLE GIRLS POINT.
& Embree Close Out Their
Northern Holdings, Selling Lands. Out
fits, etc, to N. A. Myers.-Lattcr
Has $50, 600, 900 Feet.

N. A. Myers, of Buffalo, New York,
who has been picking up Lar &c tracts
of land in Iron County, and the close
by territory in Michigan, purchased
the tract owned BY Rittenhouse &
EN- bree at Little.Girls Point, Tues
day. There are four thousand acres
in the lands, and 100000 feet of
timber. In all Mr.. Myers has
secured 100000 feet of timber.
He also purchased the logging out
fits of the Rittenhouse & Embree
Company. After looking over the
work that had been done at Little
Girls Point Mr.. Myers closed deal
with L. A. Lindsay, formerly of this
city, to take charge of the work,
and Mr. Lindsay has already COM
menced getting things in readiness
to log 100000 feet at the Point
this winter. He will employ about
seventy men in the work. Mr.. Lind
say was in the city Tuesday and
looked oyer the logging outfit that
has been secured to do the work
with. 1t is probable that Mr.. Myers
will build a mill at the Point, but
the cut of this winter will likely be
brought to the, Washburn mills to be
sawed next season. There is large
tract of cedar and hemlock in the
Myers tract and the new concern
expect to peel 5000 cords eft hem
lock bark next summer. Mr.. Lind
say was formerly in charge of the
work for Rittenhouse Il Embree.
and upon the showing he made Mr..
Myers has secured his services to
conduct the work tina. he will begin
at Little Girls Point.

Wolves. Plentiful

Wolves are becoming more. plenti-
full every year and unless hunters
take it upon themselves to make a
Strengthening the deer in this section
will soon be driven out. The Indians
claim that the deer are going south
and believe that few years will see
the forest of the north wholly desert
ed but toe hunter knows only too
well the real cause for the scarcity OF
the animals. The deer may be work
ng.south, but it is not because his
nature has changed and he wishes to
abandon the forest for the open
prairies where he is afforded no pr O.
lection. Few wolves and many deer
are kilied'every year by hunters, but
the wolf does not get in his work
Of destruction until after the hunt
ing season when the snow becomes
deep and the deer yard up. At this
time there are no hunters in the
woods and the wolf has things
pretty much his own way. Wolves
become desperately hungry during
the winter months and wholly de-
pendent on deer for food. They
gather together in large numbers
and once a yard OF deer is discovered
they fall easy prey to these vicious
monsters. A deer cannot travel
fast in deep snow and it is said that
q man on snow shoes will soon tire
them out. Wolves are far more de-
structlve to deer than hunters, but
between the two it is plain to see
that the time of determination for
deer is short. The bounty On wolves
at the present time is $40, S. from
the county and $5 from the state,
but this does not seem sufficient as
few engage in hunting them.
Should this bounty be raised to $40
1t is the belief of many that the state
would soon be freed from these des-
tructive animals. The same state
of affairs in regard to wolves in this
state existed in the states of Name
some years ago. The deer were
nearly all driven out there and it
was necessary to raise the bounty
on wolves to $25 before hunters
would engage in the work of trap
ping and poisoning them. AS the
wolves decreased the deer returned
and now abound in great numbers.
This seems to be the only remedy
for the relief of Northern Wisconsin
from the wolf pest which is growing
in greatness at rapid rate. Bay

Iron River Pioneer: There will

Iron River this year S 35, 755 80, as
against ST., 27O IS last year, The
total valuation this year as fixed by
the assessor and board of review is
$1,298,O33 but $13,788 less than last
year. In view Of the fact that much
timber has been removed during the
past year the opinion was quit gene
real that there would be greater
difference than this in the value of
the taxable property of the two
years.
