Clearing the Debris.

Scores of workmen are busy today clearing away the debris from the scene of the explosion of last Thurs day night. Until the wreckage was cleared away there was not the faint est idea of the amount of damage sus- tained. Now it appears as miraculous that anyone within blocks escaped, and particularly narrow was the escape of the seveh workmen on duty there. Fragments of iron. brick. tin, wood and coal were driven through slate roofs, penetrated iron stacks, snapped tele- graph poles and in many cases were hurled distances often blocks. With all this, but a single man lost his life, although it was reported at the works all day yesterday that another human body was under the ruins. This, 1t was claimed, was that of a negro. <-

DEMOCRATIC PROSPECTS.

Nearly 500 democrats of Nebraska
last night at Omaha celebrated the
ninety-ninth anniversary Of Andrew
Jacksons victory over the British at New
Orleans, and incidentally the thirteenth
annual banquet of the Jacksonian Club
of Nebraska. The speakers included
Senator Francis G.. Newlands, ofNevada :.
Congressman David DeArmond, OF
Missouri, and Congressman Hitchcock,
of Nebraska. The occasion was OF
special significance to Nebraska demo-
Gratis because of reunion of the. fac
tons that have formerly been known as
"pold' and "slyer" democrats.
Congressman David A. DeArmond,
of Missouri, addressed the assemblage on
"What ofOur Future?," saying in part
rCan the democratic party win the com
ing national election2 Yes. Will the
victory be ours? That is not so easily
answered, for that depends upon what
the party will say and do when next it
convenes in national convention. If it
shall wisely address itself to the issues of
the day, asserting nothing Extensively,
apologizing for nothing, and shall name
for its nominees men who ought to be
and, therefore, will be acceptable to Its
rank and file, it will win.
Senator Newlands spoke to the toast
Democracy in 1904" Among other
things he said. "fhe contest of 1904 is
to be in the North and West, and the
candidates, the issues and the organiza-
ton must be selected with a view to
victory there. 1t is, therefore, all the
more important that the democratic party
shall rely upon a careful framing of the
issue of the campaign and thorough
organization of the party"

New York Stock MArket.

New York, Jan. 1.-The stock market
this morning has been controlled by the
apprehension of unfayorable reports Of
war between Russia and Japan. The
adyices over the holiday were extremely
pessimistic as regards the maintenance Of
peace, and London quotations for Ameri-
cans came decidedly weak. BY the close
of the first hour, under increased offer
ings, the active list had scored losses of
/ to Il per cent from last Thursday.
The losses also extended to a point or
more in the industrial list including
Amalgamated Copper, United States
Steel preferred aud sugar. The market
broke rather easily after the bank state
ment, closing weak at the lowest OF the
day.
Financial interests have apparently given
up all hope Of peaceful settlement of the
Russo-Japanese imbroglio, and believing
that war would soon be declared, set about to-
day to dispose of stocks The throwing ever
Of long stocks and the consequent lack OF sup
port caused heavy slump all through the
standard list ON the stock exchange. London
presaged the heavy fall here by sending over
lower range for British consols as well as
for all European government securities.
Liquidation began with the opening Of the
exchange and continued TO the close. The
movement was further accelerated by O bad
