BOMB IN NEW YORK CROWD.
Score Of People Injured by the Ex.
piosion.

Score Of People injured by the Ex-
piosion.
New York, Aug. 10.-A bomb thrown
into a crowd Of Italians In One Hun
dred and Fifteenth street injured a
score or more and led to the arrest Of
Vincenzo Donetto. Donetto, the po-
lice believe, is a member Of the "Black
Hand" society, which for some time
has terrorized residents of the Italian
district here, extorting money from
them by threats and acts Of violence.
Donetto was himself more severely
injured by the bomb than any Of the
others, one leg being badly torn. Two
rival saloonkeepers on opposite street
corners we're giving away beer, in an
effort to outdo each other. and a crowd
surrounded each place:
Peter Dimero,- who was acting as
doorkeeper at one of the saloons, says
that Donetto approached him and de.
manded money. which was refused.
He Immediately stepped back. took a
bomb from his pocket. lighted its fuse
and threw 1t. An explosion followed.
and men, women and children ran
screaming from the place. Donetto was
knocked down, but soon recovered
sufficiently to be able to get away.

76 Bodies Found

Pueblo, Col. Aug. 9.-The wreck of
the Worlds Fair flyer ON the Denver
& Rio Grande, near Eden, seven miles
north of Pueblo. proves to have been
one Of the most tragic railroad disas.
ters in the history of this country. Two
crowded passenger cars and baggage
car were engulfed in the torrent that
tore out trestle spanning Steele's hol-
low, otherwise known as Dry creek, ,
and, SO far as known, only three of the
occupants Of these cars escaped death.
Fortunately two sleepers and diner,
competing the train, remained ON the
track at the edge of the abyss and none
Of their occupants was killed or in.
jured.
How many preished probably will
never bedefinitely ascertained. for the
sands are drifting ever the bodies. At
O'Clock this evening 78 bodies had
been recovered and uf these 90 had been
identified. During the day bodies were
recovered all the way along Fountain
river from the scene of the wreck to
this city. At l O'Clock this afternoon
two bodies were taken from the stream
at First street, Pueblo, more than eight
miles from the point where the disaster
occurred.

CRAZED BY A LONG SWIM.
New York Men Dragged From Water
by Friends.

New York, Aug. S.-Clifford G. Bax-
ter a civil engineer, and Captain John
Enright Of the Southbeach life saving
station, started on a swimming contest
from Brooklyn bridge to the iron pier
at Coney Island. and both were taken
out Of the water temporarily crazed
after swimming for seven hours, and
when within a mile Of their goal. The
distance is estimated at 13 IL miles.
Baxter passed Enright at Norton's
point, when both men were nearly ex-
hausted. Enright soon afterward de-
clared that some one was holding him
back and began to rave. He was taken
from the water.
A brother of Enright, seeing that
Baxter might finish. became excited
and jumped overheard. He caught
Baxter and Baxter's crew fought him
off with an oar. BY this time Baxter
developed a delusion that devil fish
was towing him and that he was
starving to death, and his friends
dragged him from the water.

Situation al
Port Arthur

The Shanghai correspondent of the
London Morning Post cabling Wednes-
day morning, states that he has re-
ceived infol nation from reliable
source" that conditions within Port
Arthur are appalling. The garrison is
famine stricken and has been de prived
of meat or vegetables other than rice
for weeks. The result is that the suf-
ferings of the sick and wounded are in
describable.
According to the correspondent,
there are upwards OF 1000 in the hos
pitfalls and doctors are unable to attend
to all of them. This latter state of af.
fairs has resulted in many deaths of
patients who might have been saved
had they had proper care.
The correspondent closes his dispatch
with the amazing announcement that
General Stoessel, who was in supreme
command in Port Arthur, committed
suicide because he was unable to re-
lieve the suffernigs OF brave men under
his comm and. The fact has been sup
pressed, declares the correspondent, be-
cause Of the effect it would have upon
the garrison.
None Of the other London dailies
have any information confirmatory of
the POSTS advices and they are not
generally credited. 1t is pointed ont
that. SO far as General Stoessel is con.
cerned, dispatches isgned by him have
been given out at st. Petersburg and
that refugees who won their way from
the fortress during the last fort night
say that General Steossel has been the
life of the seige and has been very
much in evidence at all hours of the
day and night. That there is suffering
in Port Arthur is undoubtedly true; al
SO that many of the garrison are sick
and wounded, but the Post correspon-
dents figures seem much too high and
are undoubtedly exaggerated.

JAPS PRAISE kURoPATklN.
Ability to Withdraw From Old Posi-.
tion Causes Admiration.

General Kuropatkn's success in ex.
Treating his army from the Liaotung
peninsula without disaster has elected
much praise from ,ne Japanese. The
concentration of his army at Kaichou
at one time seemed to involve 1t in
disaster. 1t was popularity believed
that a general and decisive battle
would .e fought e..Aer at Tatchekiao
or at iiaicheng.
1t is considered here that Kuropat.
kin sacrificed his prestige by abandon
ing an immense territory without q
battle. He was forced to abandon or
destroy valuable stores and munitions
of war when transportation was the
most serious problem to the Russians.
He also impaired the morale Of his
army. but he preserved his men and
guns. 1t is evident that he had hoped
and planned to check the Japanese at
Tatchekiao. Then, after holding the
enemy in check, 1t is believed to have
been his purpose to concentrate his re-
naming force at Liaoyang and to
strike huroki.
Crisis Near.
The unexpected loss Of the Russian
left at Tatchekiao and the appearance
of the Japanese Takushan army on the
flank forced the abandonment and sur
render, without a fight. of Kinkow.
haicneng and .,ewchwang. 1t Is gener-
ally .o.ieved that the crisis Will come
shortly at Liaoyang and that Kuropat-
kin will be forced to give battle. what
ever his present purpose may be. Cen
eral Oku's and the Takushan armies
are pressing northward. and General
KurOki Is close at hand, ready to take
any part necessary in the general JAP
anese play.
The possession of Yinkow has enor.
mously simplified the transportation
problem for the Japanese. 1t gives
their two armies freedom of move
ment wn,.n they have heretofore not
possessed. The japanese are speedily
repairing the railroad which the kus.
SLAMS failed to seriously damage In
their hasty retreat.

for itself what class Of merchandise 1t
