DYNAMITE AND FLAMES
Play Havoc in knoxville. Tenn,
Through Destruction of Property
on lll-Fated Gay Street

A Knoxville. Tenn. special says:
Fire, accompanied by a terrific dyna'
mite or powder explosion. occurred on
the ill.fated east side Of Gay street
early Saturday morning. The total
loss is placed at about $3.50, 900. which,
it is thought, is almost entirely cover
ed by insurance. Several persons were
injured more or less seriously.
The fire originated from an unknown
cause in the Woodruff Hardware Co.'S
seyen-story building, which was re-
duced to ashes, causing loss now es'
timated at $175,OO0. The recently COM
pleted fiye-story marble front building
occupied by the Cable Piano Co. was
wrecked by the explosion, and the six
story Arnold, Henegar & Doyle whole
sale shoe house was damaged by both
fire and water. These latter buildings
were north and south Of the Woodruff
block, respectively. AS a result Of the
explosion almost all window glassea
and many show cases in nearly every
store within a radius Of two blocks y:
the fire were shattered. The streets
were completely showered, with frag-
ments of glass.
The blaze was confined to the Wood
ruff block, the fremen doing adm!ra'
BILE work. This firm was burned out
entirely in 1897, when almost every
building in this same block Was burn
ed, entailing loss of iacre than q
million dollars. Subsequently serious;
fires within this block were in 1899
1902 and February Of this year.
The dynamite which exploded was
in a chest on the sidewalk il front
OF the Woodruff building. One chest
Of explosives had been removed by
the firemen, and the second chest eX.
ploded before it was possible to- get it
away from danger. TIE fire was I'M
der good headway when discovered,
the entire interior OF the building be.
ing practically gutted Thus the dy.
Mantle was hot when the dremen
reached the scene.

TROOPS ARE CALLED FOR
Governor, However, Suggests First the
Forming of a Large Posse-shsr:
-. if is Unable to Control ''
.:..r: . Situation. -

A special from Charleston. w. Va,
says: As the result Of the killing OF
Constable Walter Jackson in Mont.
gomery by Policeman Elliott on We'd
nesday, and the subsequent capture Of
the town by the four brothers of Jack
son at the head of about forty OF their
friends, a reign Of terror exists there.
The mayor, being helpless, appealed
to Sheriff Daniels. When Sheriff
Daniels and John Rolf were killed by
Ed Jackson, the saloons were: at once.
closed and Governor White was asked
to send troops. The governor replied
that he would hold troops in readiness,
but advised forming large posse.
If the posse should meet with Sc
rious resistance, troops Will be sent to
their. -relisf. The Jackson followers
escaped to mountain stronghouds with
which they are familiar. Ernest and
Bob Jackson were arrested and jailed
In Charleston.
A posse headed by Marshal Harrison
B. Ash, of Thurmond, IS securing the
mountains near montgomery. Two
bloodhounds arrived from Dayton, O.
They were placed On the trail Friday
morning
The officials In Montgomery fear fur
ther trouble, as sentiment against the
slayer Of Daniels is very. strong Be.
fore the murder of Daniels the senti-
ment was with the Jacksons against
Policeman Elliott. The latter is in
the custody of Chief Hundley.
a relative of Jackson appeared at
the hotel and attempted to reach the
room Of the policeman. He was pre-.
vented by the attaches.
Reports from the posse are that Ed
Jackson was chased into cave Friday
night when it was decided to wait for
daylight for his capture. Although the
place was surrounded during the night,
Jackson escaped.
Meantime the friends of Jackson are
reported to be openly organizing
around Montgomery and swearing
vengeance If Jackson IS lynched or
killed without being given a trial.
The excitement for, miles around
Montgomery Is intense because of the
trouble. Deputies are being sworn in
from adjacent counties rapidly and
fastened to the posse to prevent lynch
ing or any violence If Jackson is ta-
ken alive and also to prevent any at
tempt of Jackson's friends to rescue
the prisoner.
Those who terrorized the hamlet of
Montgomery with the Jackson brothers
are being feared again, while many
citizens are away with the posse A
reward Of $4,000 has been offered
for Jackson dead or alive.

Japan Approaches Russia
BUT Gets a Iurn-Down.
PATH OPEN TO POWERS
While Nicholas Refuses to Treat With
aiikado, He is Not Avsrse to
Friendly intervention of Dis
interested Governments.

An Associated Press dispatch from
London says: Japan unofhcially has
made representations to Russia look
ing to peace. This action has resulted
in failure and such representations,
even privately, are not likely to be re-
peated by Japan.
Although the suggestion Of a pacific
settlement was made unoficially, it
actually had behind it all the weight
of an offer by the Japanese govern.
ment. 1t was made direct to Russia.
No power acted as an intermediary.
The proposition was put forward
tentatively and unoficialiy so that the
Japanese government would be in a
position to deny any report that it
was suing for peace. The failure Of
these direct negotiations, however, re-
suited in bringing intervention within
a measurable distance.
Foreign Secretary Lansdowne's plea
for arbitration Wednesday evening at
a banquet has brought out a pointed
suggestion to the United States and
France that the time is approaching
when the powers must take some ac-
ton. It can be definitely stated that
Lord Laasdowne made his speech with
full knowledge tha, Japan will not
resent a proposition looking to peace
from the three powers (the United
States, France and Great Britain.)
There is definite impression III
London that the initiative will come
from President Roosevelt though the
action would be joint. 1t is noted
that Lord I.ansdowne spoke so openly
oaly because he had good reason to
believe that Mr.. Roosevelt, If elected
contemplated making an effort TO
bring the belligerents to discuss terms
Of peace.
Lord Lansdowne's remarks are held
by those in his confidence to mean
that whatever the United States may
do in the matter Great Britain will CO.
operate even in the event OF France
not participating. 1t is known, how
ever, that Ambassador Cambon,
Franche's representative. who con-
tinues his work assiduously to bring
about some arrangement, hopes for
Joint action by the three powers.
Ia an interview regarding the fore
going, Baron Hayashi, the. japanese
minister at London, said:
t|I should not be surprised to see the
three powers named, or two OF them,
take action suggested. Exactly upon
what basis of settlement peace could
be secured it is at present Impossible
to see. The prospects for the success
Of friendly Intervention have vastly
increased. Since the commencement
OF the war the two nations now re.
spect each other to a degree never
dreamed Of before they met in battle
That mutual respect is the most hope
ful factor for peace. Japan does not
want to go on fighting forever. Yet
eyen with all the victories won during
this war, her statesmen would rende:
themselves liable to be most seriously
misunderstood. especially in Russia.
II they openly suggested in the name
of humanity some method whereby the
war could be stopped.
