OIL TANKS EXPLODE.
Big Loss Suffered by Big Refining
Company at Port Arthur, Tex.
Refinery Saved.

Beaumont, Tex, April 1S.-Fire in the
Gulf Refinery property at Port Arthur,
which ragged for many hours, was
brought under control Saturday after
having inflicted damage amounting to
$125,00 The refinery was not damaged
but three steel tanks and their contents
were destroyed.
When the agitator exploded, it blew
the top over 100 feetin the air and scat
tered burning oil over about ten acres
of land, buildings and machinery. In
stantly, it seemed, the entire area burst
into flames, which have been burning
steadily ever since. Three 37,0C0-barrel
tanks have blown their tops off and are
burning. Flames from them shoot into
the air 200 feet
The injured are: Jack Bonloss, suffo-
Gated, will die, and two negroes, hit on
the head by falling pipes.
The No. refinery of the Gulf Refining
company is the largest Independent re-
finery in the world and the largest of any
character in Texas. 1t is capitalized at
81 100000. The control of the company
is in the hands of Pittsburg and other
eastern capitalists.

be utilized, but great portion of it is
worthless. The little locomotives are
said to be in a fair condition. the
dumping cars that have not been in
use may be made serviceable with new
woodwork; the dredges are good
enough, though not of the most modern
pattern. Ton after ton of expensive
iron work scattered over hill and dale
represents nothing but waste. The
French company built houses in almost
as prodigal a manner as it purchased
machinery. The number that it owned
is placed at 2,431, making almost a
continuous camp across the isthmus,
with accommodations said to be suff1-
cient for $4,000 or $4,000"
The purchase of the canal by the
United States carries with it the own
ership of the Panama railroad and in
Guided Herewith is practically the en-
tire city of Colon, and the first work to
be done by the Americans will proba-
bly, be to put the city in a proper sani-
tary condition. AS it now is, those
who visit the place pronounce the con-
ditions as disgraceful.

still, uninluenced by the fact that his
mother was Archduchess Maria Teresa
of Austria He was barely 10 when he
was married to Margaret de Bourbon,
princess of Parma, the daughter of Duke
Ferdinand, and Nine. de France, the sis
ter of Count de Chambord (Henry w. of
France).
When he was only 20 he inherited the
position which he still occupies of pre-
tender to the Spanish throne" on
which, indeed, but for his adherence to
a single belief he might have sat all the
time. When Isabella had to flee from
Spain in 1868 his father abdicated his
position in favor of Don Carlos, to whom
almost Immediately after, the crown
was offered by the most powerful min
listers of the provisional government
which had then been established. They
sought to obtain from him promise
to separate church and state, and the
maintenance of certain constitution.
His reply WAS eminently Spanish, pre-
eminently characteristic: 81 will rule
my kingdom when come into it as see
fit" Within two years the brother of
Victor Emmanuel was chosen king
of Spain, Don Carlos protesting against
the choice. In July, 1872, came his
famous proclamation to the people of
Catalonia, Valencia, and Aragon to take
up arms for him and the cause he rep

A MEMORABLE SCENE.
Pope Plus and the Church Dignitaries
Listen to Able Perosi's
New Oratorio.

Rome, April 1S.-The Vatican Satur-
day morning presented spectacle I'M
precedented for centuries, when Pope
Plus, the cardinals, other dignitaries of
the church, the members of the papal
court, the BLACK" aristocracy, and 300
other guests assisted at the performance
in the Sala Regia of Able Perosi's new
oratorio, The Last Judgment" The
choir, which included women singers.
was personally directed by the compos-
err. The pope was greatly pleased with
the presentation of Able Perosi's latest
work and offered him his congratula-
lions on the success of the oratorio. 1t
is popularity said that the present pom
tificate will be golden era for sacred
music

All Kinds of Ore.

Excitement incident to the mineral
discoveries at Swanville is at its height.
The rush of prospectors to the hills is
well under way, and not train comes
into the station without leaving sever
al strangers who have been attracted
by the rumors of the presence of pre-
cious metals in hills and streams in the
neighborhood-
At Irish creek and vicinity the coun-
try is being searched for gold and sill
YER, strong evidences of which have
been found. One man who has been
at work there for several days has
found quantities of the finest gold
dust and small nuggets in the sand OF
the bed in the stream, and has had
them on exhibition in the village day
or two. 1t also has been determined
that bedrock lies only about twelve
feet below the surface of the ground
there and this is taken as good indi-
cation,

Killed by CIOthesline.

A clothesliue is attributed as the pri-
mary cause of the death of Joseph
Hammerschmidt, who died at his home,
442 Blair street, st. Paul. His parents
refused to permit Coroner w. A. Miller
to make an post-mortem examination
on the ground that the clothesline
was the cause of his death, and the
coroner acceded to the wish of the re-
tives.
Mr.. Hammerschmidt ran into a
clothesline in the yard of his home last
Christmas and fell backward, striking
on the back of his head. He COM
planned of pains in his head after the
accident He had attended funeral
the day he died. He returned to work in
the afternoon and in the evening COM
planned of pains in his head: DR.. Carl
Wirth was called and decided that the
patient had hemorrhage of the brain.
Hammerschmidt died soon afterwards.

groes, brought hither by the De Les
seps company when it began to dig the
canal. Most of the business. however,
is in the hands of Cinnamon. 1t is
probable that when the United States
comes into control Of the, canal prop
erty and begins active operations that
the town will undergo great changes.
The town has the advantage of natural
drainage, and with the sanitary rules
and regulations which the United States
will be certain to enforce the place will
be made perfectly healthful.
While the name Culebra is applied
to the mile of heaviest work on the
canal, it is used as a general appella-
ton for the eight-mile section that will
separate the proposed lake of Bohio
from the Pedro Miguel locks on the
Pacific side. There is some very hard
rock at the upper end of the work, but
the greater portion consists of hard
indurated clay, with softer material at
the top and some strata and bikes Of
rocks. This cut has been estimated on
the basis of a bottom width Of $50 feet,
with side slopes of one on one. With
the provision for broad beaches on the
side and drainage of all the land above
the masonry wall of the canal it is be-
lieved that landslides, such as that
which occurred few weeks ago, will
be avoided.
The estimates of the American 18TH
milan canal commission place the
amount of material to be removed from
this Culebra cut of less than eight
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1904-04-22

miles at something like 43,237 200 cubic
yards. 1t will probably take eight years
to finish the excavation and construc-
ton Of the lining walls of masonry and
the locks. This work will cost S44, 414,-
400. In addition to this will be the
locks at Pedro Miguel, which will cost
S9,0S1 900. Less than two miles below
Pedro Miguel, at Miraflores, will be
constructed another set of locks, which
will cost $6,OOO,OO0 more. From that
point on to the harbor at Panama, the
canal is practically completed.
From Culebra northward, where is
encountered the section on which most
of the work on the canal has been done,
the route of the ditch is marked by
vast accumulations of machinery of ev-
cry possible kind. A correspondent of
the New York Herald, who recently Wis
tied the isthmus and inspected the en-
tire route, says that sit would impress
the casual observer that everything
had been bought by thousands where
only scores could by any possibility be
required. Some of this material may
