SIX PERSONS KILLED;
FIFTY ARE INJURED
Explosion In Manufacturing
Plant Does Great Damage.
sTRUcTuRE is COMPLETE WRECK

Five Hundred Men Were In Building
at the Time of xplosion-Debris
Caught Fire-ExpIosion Was Heard
for Miles Around.
New York, May 22.-Six men were
killed and so others more or less in
jured Tuesday by an explosion in the
plant Of the New York Glucose COM
pany at Shady Side, N. j., opposite
this city.
1t is believed that the explosion was
caused by a defect in one Of the boil
ers.
A four-story brick building, 10Ox200
feet, was completely wrecked, and out
buildings torn to pieces.
There were 500 men in the building
at the time and the wives and chill
dren of those who live in the neigh
borhood were thrown into panic.
Calls were sent to nearby towns for
ambulances and police, and sailors Of
the warships lying In the Hudson riv-
er gave aid in the rescue.
The explosion could be heard for
many miles. 1t sounded as though a
monstrous charge of dynamite had
been set off.
Immediately after the report the
hundreds of women residing In the
neighborhood rushed to the ruins. The
big building had already taken fire,
and no time was lost in the work Of
rescue.
Just west of the boilers, where the
greatest damage was done, there were
fully a hundred at work. 1t is be-
Heved, however, that the greater part
of these escaped.
One Of the first bodies to be found
was that of Pat Lynch, driver for
the General Chemical company. He
had been instantly killed by the flying
bricks.
Another body recovered was that of
John Russell, an employe of the Glu-
cose company. Many of the injured
were in such a bad condition it is
feared that they will not recover.
The rescuers found that there were
IL living men imprisoned in the burn
ing debris and made frantic efforts to
rescue them. Two more were TAX
en- out fatally injured, and then the
flames drove back the rescuers, and
it appeared that the ten men wou>l
be burned to death.
Four priests from neighboring
churches offered prayers for the dying
while all hope of aiding the impris
oned men was abandoned.
Two fire boats were summoned
from New York, and when they arrived
further efforts were made to quench
the fire.
A sixteen-inch water main was in
stalled by the Glucose company for
fighting fires, burst when the explosion
occurred and was of no value.

Democratic Convention Meets.

Excelsior Springs, Mo-, May 22.-
The Democratic judicial convention, to
name two judges for the state supreme
court. met here Tuesday. The state
nominating convention will be held
at Jefferson City in June. There
were fewer delegates at the conven
tton than at any for many years, about
one-half of the number selected having
sent proxies. The railroads for the
first time in years declined to furnish
delegates with passes, and this was
said to be the cause Of the small at
tendance.

JAIL TERM AND FINE
FOR SENATOR BURTON
United States Supreme Court
Decides Against Kansan.
SENATE TO TAKE ACTION.
The Supreme Court Holds That His
Conviction Does Not Vacate His
Seat and the Senate Will Have to
Consider the Case.

Washington, May 22.-The su-
preme court of the United States on
Monday rendered a decision in the
case of United States Senator Bur-
ton, of Kansas. The decision was
against Burton, affirming the decis-
lon OF the United States circuit court
for the eastern district of Missouri,
by which Burton was sentenced to
SIX months Imprisonment in the Jail
OF Iron county, Missouri, required to
pay fine Of $4,000 and deprived of
the right to hereafter hold office un-
der the government.
The opinion was by Justice Harlan
All OF the pC4nts made in Burtons S
interest were Overruled.
Senator Burton was prosecuted on
the charge of violating section 1882
OF the revised statutes, which pro-
htbits senators and representatives
from receiving compensation for ser
vices rendered before any of the gov
ernment departments in any matter
In which the government may be in
terested. He was specifically charged
with accepting fee of $500 per month
for five months from Rialto Grain and
Securities company, of st. Louis, for
services rendered that company in an
effort to prevent the issuance of an
order by the postofflce department
prohibiting the use of the mails by
the company.
Justices Brewer, White and Peck
ham united in dissenting opinion de-
hvered by Justice Brewer.
The court granted motion to give
sixty days to Senator Burton in which
to prepare a petition for a rehearing.
The action will have the effect of
taking the case over until the Octo-
ber term of the court
That the senate will be compelled
to take cognizance of the case is in
dicated by the decision. Justice Har.
Ian held that the sentence could not
cover an election to the United States
senate as they do not hold their
places under the government of the
United States.
To the newspaper men who called
to see him, Senator Burton said:
II shall adhere to my original poll.
cy of saying nothing until my case is
finally determined"
He would not say, in reply to a ques,
ton, that he intended to take further
legal steps, but from the fact that he
does not regard his case as finally de.
cided, in view Of the sixty days grant
ed for rehearing, it is inferred that
he will do so.

met increase of acreage 736,228,
which shows an increase of 2.76 per
cent over the acreage planted in 1905.
THE foregoing will be verified or cor
rected by the state president of the
Southern Cotton association, who will
meet in Jackson, Miss, May 81, for
the purpose of compiling a general re-
port from data secured from their re-
spective states
Cotton field labor is very scarce,
especially in Alabama, Mississippi,
Louisiana and Arkansas, it being the
opinion of a majority Of our CORE
spondents from these states that at
least 10 per cent of cotton now plant
ed must be abandoned on account of
scarcity Of hands necessary to culti-
vate. Cotton field labor, especially
the negro, can be compared to balky
horse, as they must be begged and
coaxed continually. Large planters
would not be surprised if at any mo-
ment migration of every hand on
their plantations would occur.
THE very wet early spring caused
nearly all planting to be done on too
wet soil, making it impossible for the
cotton plants to thrive as they should.
Several frosts between May and 10
in different portions of the cotton belt
did an immense amount of damage,
causing much replanting to be done
and leaving very bad stands in many
localities where seed for replanting
could not be secured.
