OAKLAND, Jan. 10.-Liyes- of half
a dozen men were endangered and a
portion of the works was destroyed
last night in a dastardly attempt to
blow up the plant of the Pacific In
cinerating Company at West Oakland.
:. A 'keg of powder was surreptitious-
ly placed in one of the large combustion
furnaces used to burn refuse. The
stuff exploded after the fires had been
started, partly wreeking the big brick
furnace, blowing heavy iron caps off
the air vents, smashing the large iron
CRATE bars and sending a rain of brick
and iron over the men who were work.
ing on the platform above the fur
naces.
For weeks the employees of the COM
pany had been closely. watching for
some such elimination Of the bitter
warfare that has been waged between
the company and the scavengers. The
officials of the plant admit that they
have no proof as to the perpetrators of
the powder plot, although their sus-
picions are directed against individ-
i. uals because of threats which have
been repeated as having come from
disgruntled persons.
The San Francisco call., 1905-01-11

The explosive was introduced by be-
ing thrown into wagon load of refuse
while the team was on its rounds.
When the load was emptied into the
furnace the can of powder went
With it.
Shortly after the mass had been fired
the explosion occurred. The shock was
felt for half a mile around the works.
No damage was done outside of the
plant because of its isolated location.
1t is the practice in handling the re-
fuse to use one of the big furnaces ex-
clusively for garbage. The other one
is reserved for the incineration of
other combustible matter. The powder
could not have been so readily placed
IN the garbage furnace without detec-
ton.
Frank Melbourne. superintendent of
the plant, declares that he has good
reason to believe that the explosive
was intended to wreck the plant. That
it did not fully accomplish the mis-
creant's purpose was due to the size
of the furnace and the fact that the
force of the explosion was somewhat
broken by escape of gases through
vents.

Each for Players.

CINCINNATI, Jan. 10.-The Ma
tional Baseball Commission at its
meeting to-day considered the changes
in the National agreement desired by
the National Association of Minor

made, most of the speakers urging
greater consideration for the minor

opposed to the request of the minor
leagues regarding drafted players.
He offered a substitute. which has
been taken under advisement by tho
representatives of the National Asso-
citation of Minor Leagues.
Mr.. Johnson proposed that each
club in the National and American
Leagues be limited to the drafting of
not more than four or five players
each year. He favored maximum
price of $1,000 for drafted men.

SAYS FARMER
IS ADV ANGLING
President Wheeler Talks
About the Progress of Ag-
riculture as a Science
Berkeley Office San Francisco Call,
214S Center Street, Jan. 10.


Profoundly impressed by the develop
ment of agriculture on scientific lines
in California and by the keen, intelli-
gent interest manifested in the work or
that department of the State Univer-
sity, Benjamin Ide Wheeler, president
Of the University of California, returned
to-day from ten days visit among the
farmers of Santa Barbara and Ventura
counties.
President Wheeler delivered an ad-
dress at the Farmers Institute at San
many of the leading agriculturists of
that section. His comment on his trip
follows:
The farmers Of California are becoming pro-
fessionai men. The wide interest they are
manifesting in the scientific side of agricul-
ture is becoming important factor in the
work of tilling the soil and growing the diver
sified crops OF this empire State The farmers
appreciation of the Importance of expert
knowledge is one of the most noticeable re
suits of the universty's farmers institutes.
This is demonstrated by the cean-cut observa-
tions that are made at the lectures and the
enthusiastic concern of the audiences at the
Institutes.
1 remarked the careful and intelligent
thought shown by the queries of listeners at
Santa Paula. Professor Fortier was fairly
bombarded with questions after he had con-
cluded an address that was on cold scientific
lines The farmer of California and of the
United States has at his command through this
great university a source of knowledge un-
equaled the world over In Europe and in
Great Britain there is no such attention paid
to agricultural development as is Civ, n TO
farming in this country. l glad to OBJ
serve that farmers realize the needs of
the university and understand the Importance
of its relation to our agricultural interests.
During his absence President Wheel
er had a conference with Governor
Pardee touching the financial interests
of the university. OF that President
Wheeler said:
Governor Pardee is in touch with our needs
and when the appropriations made feel
satisfied we shall receive all that can possibly
be allotted to US. OF course we appreciate
that the coat must be cut according to the
cloth.

HackfeId wharf. The Phelps is en-
gagged in the deep water trade and
usually carries sugar from here to
Delaware Breakwater. Her last trip
from here last spring, was one of no
particular interest. but she loaded coal
on the Atlantic coast for the use of
the American government at Manila
and en- route the cargo caught fire,
burning until the vessel arrived in Ma
Mia. 1O7 days out So fierce was the
fire that four-inch planks We're burn
ed out entirely and VIXEN it came to
unloading the ship at Manila, the
wicker baskets in which the coal was
transferred some times caught fire.
After leaving Manila she met very
heavy weather and adverse winds max
ing it necessary to almost back around
in order to get started for Honolulu
While in~Mani:a she encountered 10
mile an hour typhoon which wrecked
ten steamers and a brig. but did not
materially damage the Phelps.
Captain Graham has the reputation
of being one of the most careful OF deep
sea masters. His wife and daughter
usually accompany him and his caoih

nearly as possibly to home The falhl-
