DYNAMITE EXpLOSION INSI BWAY
Blasting Cartridge struck or by Drill
Five WOrknien Hurt.

Five laborer. employed in a shaft OF the
subway at the Battery loop We're injured
yesterday by the explosion Of a five ounce
dynamite cartridge, Two of the workmen
went to the hospital. The shaft is opposite
State street, underneath the elevated
railroad structure. According to Fore
man OSullvan, the explosion would not
have occurred If one of the injured men
had not disoheyed Instructions.
William A. Farrell. a negro, was operating
n pneumatic drill, and OSullivan says ne
ordered him to drill holes two feet apart.
If he had followed instru ctions, according
to O'SuIivan, Farrell would not have struck
hole that already had a dynamite car
fridge in it. The cartridge was put in the
hole on Thursday.
Farrells jaw was fractured and his right
arm sprained by the explosion. Philip
Torrento. who was at work near him, had
his right arm broken. Three other men
were bruised and out. Farrell and Tor
rento were removed to the Hudson street
hospital.
The explosion caused some excitement
in the neighborhood. A crowd gathered.
but it was impossible to see what damage
had been done in the shaft. Foreman
O'Sullivan says there was no damage, and
that the work was not delayed ten minutes.
The reserves Of the Church street station
were turned out, but there was nothing
to do except drive the crowd away.

nent of Rockefeller gifts
We don't expect to stop with this, said
member of the board Yesterday. we
are going to try to encourage others to
give in the same way. 1t is intended to
make the general education board dis
trbuting center for intelligent giving to
education
"The number of colleges and so-called
universities in this country has increased
enormously. Most of them are too poorly
endowed to do really good work. A man
who has million dollars. say, to give to
education will help the ends of education
much better by handing it over to some
institution already founded than by giving
it for new college. million will hardly
put even a very small college on its feet.
II would do lot toward making effective
small college already established.
"Of course the small college has it's place
in education, just as big university has.
The trouble has been that the big univer-
sites have been getting the lions share
of funds.
"Mr, Rockefeller has seen this. He be-
lieves in tho small college. as we'll as the
big university. He has wanted for some
time to give money in that direction. The
only trouble was that he had not the time
to look into these colleges for himself.
We have done that for him
NEARLY every purpose in education Is
represented by some institution in this
country. II a man has money to give for
any specific purpose, We will take that
money and apply il where It will do the most
good That is the general idea"
The board was Incorporated in the District
OF Columbia by special act of Congress,
approved Jan IL, 1908, This act exempts
their funds from taxation and authorizes
the widest scope Of activity. The board
began at once the distribution Of the Rookie
Teller fund among the negro schools and
institutes in the South. Since then, be-
sides smaller contributions, they have re-
ceived from George Foster Peabody. $780,
600: from Robert c. Ogden. $4,000, and
the Anna L. Jones fund Of 100000 OF
this last they may Use only tho income.
So far the board has acted on the Rookie
fcller principle OF giving on condition that
the recipients pledge themselves to raise
other funds. Only yesterday $4,000 was
voted to negro school in Alabama on con-
diton that its management raise $4,000

FRICTION IN GORHAM COMPANY
IICE-PRESIDENT WOULD ATT4CH
PRESIDENTS STOCK.
Three Million Dollars vol, Ell Robinson
Charges HOlDroOk with Breach Of
Contract. Alleging President Agreed
TO Transfer Is,HOO Shares to Him.

Providence r. l., June 3O-George
Robinson, vice-presdent of the Gorham
Manufacturing Company. has fled an at
tachment of 600 1gainst the stock
owned by Edward Holbrook OF New York
president OF the company, breach OF con-
tract being the allegation upon which the
action is based. The attachment is against
stock owned in several manufa curing con-
Germs In this city and business enterprises
in New York. prominent among the former
being Mr.. Holbrook's stock holdings in the
Gorham Manufa ct uring Company, the Cen
eral Fire Extinguisher Company and the
American Screw Company.
According to the statement Of Edward G.
Bassett, one of the attorneys Of Mr.. Robin
son in this city. the contention is that an
agreement made with his client by Mr..
Hobrook to deliver shares of stock in the
Gorham company was not carried out
"The delivery OF the stock he said,
was to have been made yesterday noon
at the office OF the Gorham company, at
which time, according to written agreement,
made and signed on June ~ by Mr.. Hol-
brook he was to transfer 1880 shares OF
the common stock OF the corporation to
Mr. Robinson at the price agreed upon.
Mr. Robinson rendered the very large sum
Of money called for by the deal to Mr..
Holbrook at the stipulated time. but the
stocli was not delivered, and inasmuch IA
Mr.. Hobrook had previously disqualified
himself by his acts in the carrying out of
other portions of the contract for that
reason Mr.. Robinson claimed damages
that are represented nearly by the amount
OF the attachment
The writ is returnable to the Common
Pleas division of the Supreme Court of this
State on Aug. /. and will be transferred
to the new Superior Court. which will by
that time be in session. Mr.. Bassett said
that Mr. Holbrook's property in New York
would also be attached during the day,
a. Attorney Walter Vincent of this city had
gone on to confer with Samuel Untermyer,
MIR. Robinson's New York attorney, to take
legal steps against Mr.. Holbrook in that
city.
Ii i, ru,nored in this city that new interests
have secured the Gorham Manufacturing
Company and that there has been reor-
ganzation, with Mr.. Robinson as president.
Marsden j. Perry, Senator Nelson W. Al
drich aud George l.. Shepley are said to
control the concern now. The rumor can

Murphy Plans to Make the Celebration q
Record Breaker.

Tammany's Fourth of July celebrat ton
will be the greatest that the organizatio
has held for many a year. Last years
affair amounted to very little, because

Charles F. Murphy has given orders
that next Tuesdays festival shall be a
record breaker. All the district leaders
have been called on to send large delega-
tions, and it is expected that q feature of
the meeting will be the sounding of the
keynote" Of the municipal campaign.
There are to be other things than oratory
in the building. The other things will
be in the basement.
The long talks will be delivered by Gov.
Robert b. jGlenn of North Carolina and
Lieut. Gov. Jared Y. Sanders of Louisiana.
Among the short takers will be Charles A.
Towne, Thomas F. Grady, Thomas C.

LONDON, July The Standards Odessa
correspondent says that at noon Friday

chesky landed nine officers, including Q
Lieutenant and a Colonel. They stated
that a surgeon, sub-lieutenant and ono
ensign were killed, and that the remainder
OF the officers wero prisoners on the battle
ship. Thirty sailors were killed. Fol-
lowing ia the story OF one Of the eysvit-
nesses of the mutiny:
At noon Last Monday while the battle
ship was at yea, some Of the sailors COM
planned to the Lieutenant in command
at the time that their food was bad. The
and commanded those who were satisfied
with their food to go to the right and those
who were dissatisfied to the left
A majority declared themselves salts
for the armory and began to slaughter the
officers, who were dining. They we're
not armed and were not aware of what
was happening. Many of the officers and
sailors rushed to the side and jumped over
board to save their lives. Among these
were the Captain and First Lieutenant.
Tho mutineers in the meantime had
loaded a six-inch gun with canister and
rained hail Of shot on the water, killing
all who tried to escape except one sailor,
The story Of the murder of a sailor by
an officer Is a pure invention. 1t should
be remarked that the mutineers refused
to allow the Assistant State Attorney to
conduct an inquiry. threatening to kill him
IL he approached the wharf.
1t Is known that the seamen had formed
a revolutionary committee Of twenty-five
before the mutiny. The revolutionary
orators who harangued the crowd over
the body OF the sailor Omelchuk at the
funeral last evening are declared officially
to be mainly Jews.

these claims are well founded, but for
real exciting times commend us TO a

where there is an election OF officers.
The Daughters Of the American Rev

They succeeded only by adopting the
rather arbitrary method OF dropping
the lowest candidates one by one,
reaching a decision through q process
Of elimination.
During the ballotmg for president
some OF the delegates grew hysterical
others tainted, and many spoke their

aware that It may be said in the way
OF confession and avoidance that gath
