NINE KILLED AND
FORTY INJURED
Trolley Car Strikes Box OF
Dynamite and is
Blown Up.
MANY INJURED ARE DEAF
Express Driver Accidentally Dropped
Box of Dynamite on the Tracks
and the Street Car Struck 1t With
Horrible Results.

Melrose, Mass, Sept. 22-The auth.
critics of the state and city of Mel,
rose started an inquiry yesterday into
the explosion on the Boston G North.
ern street railway here Wednesday
evening, when an electric car bound
from Boston to this city was blown
Up by dynamite and nine persons
killed and forty injured. OF the in.
jured several were in a critical con.
dition yesterday and may die. A CON-
plete list Of the dead, as positively
identified, is as follows:
DR.. Malcolm Z. Mcclellan, Melrose
Highlands.
E. B. Haynes, Melrose.
Mrs. E. B. Haynes, wife.
Marion, four-year-old daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Haynes.
Mrs. Ada Crouch, Stoneham.
Miss Louise Tackles, Maiden.
DR.. Fred D. Marshall.
E. A. Stowe, South Boston.
Winfield Rowe, Saugus, motOrman.
The more seriously injured are al
most completely deaf as result of
the conclusion when the car struck
the dynamite, although physicians
think it probable in the majority OF
cases hearing will return.
The immediate vicinity presented
a fearful spectacle. The ground was
strewn with legs, arms and other por-
tions of human bodies.
So great was the force of the ex.
plosion that two men standing in the
door of store fifty feet away we're
severely injured by the flying pieces.
while every window within a radius
of a quarter of a mile was broken.
The car contained mostly working.
men on their way to their homes in
this city, but among the dead was a
woman and her babe.
All the doctors in the vicinity were
summoned and others called from
nearby towns of Msdford, Everett
and Maiden, as we'll as some from Bos'
ton. The injured were taken to hos.
pitfalls in wagons, carriages and auto.
mobiles. Other, who appeared to be
at the point of death, were removed
to nearby houses, while the police
began the grewsome work Of collect
ing the dead.
Within fifteen minutes after the &C.
cident a crowd of two to three thous.
and persons gathered about the scene.
Relatives and friends of the victims
we're rushing about endeavor;ng to
find their missing ones, while others,
suspecting some of their families
might have been on the car, were
equally excited.
The police announce that the cause
of the wreck was the striking of a
fifty-pound box of dynamite, one
which fell from an express wagon
just ahead of the car. The express
wagon was driven by Roy Fenton,
who discovered that the box had
dropped off and rushed back to take
1t off the track, but before he got
within hundred yards Of the box the
car came along and was blown up.
Fenton was taken into custody by the
police and is held pending the inves-
tisatiOn.

TWO ARMIES FOR MANCHURlA
Will Be Formed Out Of Corps BeIrl
Sent to Far East.

St. Petersburg. Sept. 2o.-Actina
upon the advice Of his military ad.
visers, Emperor Nicholas has de-
cided to form a second Manchurian
army. 1t will be formed Of the corps
that are being sent to the Far East,
and Lieutenant General Linevitch
probably will be given the command
of the second army. General Kuro-
patkin will become chief of both arm
les, but probably without the title Of
commander-ir- chief. 1t is this i'm
pending reorganization which seems
to have led to the countless rumors
and reports afloat here Of Kuropat-
kfn's suppression Of Viceroy Alexiefr
as chief in command Of the army,
the latter's resignation etc, but the
Associated Press Investigations indi-
cate that the above is the real situa-
ton. The Associated Press Is inform
ed that Alexieff will continue to 10
viceroy, and that as such he could
not be subordinated in title to the
commanding general, which would
happen If Kuropatk,n was given the
title of commander -in-chief. Never
theless, the Associated Press is in
formed, Kuropatkin will virtually bs
in complete untrammeled command

den to the Japanese as winter base.
It is believed the Japanese will exert
every effort to push out the Russians,
but it is thought a serious struggle for
the possession of the town is still
some days distant. The Japanese
probably will have to reckon first
with a stubborn defense of the Flu
shun mines, where the next import.
ant fight is expected to take place.
Judging by present developments
Marquis Oyama is giving up the idea
Of cutting General Kuropatkin's COM
munications to the northward and
contenting himself with advancing up.
on the Russian front and flank in
such fashion as to force the evacua-
ton of the town and compel the Rus
SLAMS to retreat further north. The
whole plan Of the Japanese advance
shows considerable difference from
the operations at Lao Yang. At the
same time, it is possible the Japanese
are making undisclosed movements,
as they have successfully done in the
past.
According to the best Information
Oyama has three armies concentrated
south and southeast of Mukden, a
fourth corps consisting Il two divis.
ions composed of men drafted from
the armies of Generals Kuroki, Nodzu
and Oku, being detached to Dziant:
chan, and then sending out fanking
columns northward and northeast
ward with the object of protecting
Oyama's right and at the same time
driving in the Russian outposts. An
enveloping movement on such a large
scale as General Kurold essayed at
Lao Yang is not expected. Evidently
the Japanese realize that their
strength is inadequate to justify an.
other attempt to surround General
Kurcpatkin, who now is stronger by
two army corps than he was at Lao
Yang.
The report has gained some cred
ence here that 1t is the intention Of
the Japanese to winter at Mukden if
they can take the town, and then hold
on until an accumulation Of Russian
forces on their front compels them to
retire to the Lao Tung peninsula and
Korea, the retreat In this direction
drawing Kuroratllin after them.
Orders have been issued to prepare
several rife brigades for service in
the far east.

THE RUSSIAN THISTLE.
A Fruitvale Rancher Believes in Going
Slow IN Its determination

Il see there is talk of the county
authorities taking in hand the eXter-
mination of the Russian thistle" said
one of the Fruitvale ranchers to The
Herald. This reminds me that some
ten years ago a bill was before CON
gress appropriating one million dollars
as a national fund for this purpose. 1t
did not become a law. however. and |
remember hearing a former cabinet min
lister take some credit to himself later.
for having aided in defeating it, He
said that the Russian thistle. at first
regarded as a formidable pest. had PROV
ed to be a valuable forage plant. and
had become a standard crop in Dakota
and Minnesota. where it was at first
most feared. ! do not wish to pose as
an authority on the subject myself for
do not even know the plant when !

for the commissioners not to take any
hasty action

FINE PROSPECT FOR HOPS.
Estimate of the Crop of the United

Local mop growers will be interested
to learn that the price of this year,
crop will be ligher. if anything, than
last. At least that seems to be tn

as follows to the New York journal oil
Commerce and Commercial Bulletin:
October l. 1901, the crop of the United
States with the stock carried over in
the hands of dealers amounted to 35O.-
900 bales. The maximum price paid
in New York that year was 2s cents
per pound.
October l, 1902, the crop of the United
States with the stock carried over in
the hands of dealers amounted to 300
900 bales. The maximum price paid in
New York was 30 cents per pound
October !, 1903. the crop of the United
States with the stock carried over in
the hands of dealers amounted to 2S4.-
