DYNAMITE CAR BLOWN UP.
Nine Killed and Hundreds Hurt by Ex-
pIosicn In Jellico, Tenn.


Jellico, Tenn, Sept 22.-Nine deaths,
injury to 200 persons and $500,0OO dam
age to property were caused here when
a carload of dynamite standing on
track near the Southern railway depot
exploded with report that was heard
for twenty miles. Buildings were
shattered and nearly every piece of
glass within radius of one mile was
broken.
JeIlico is patrolled by 200 armed men
sworn in by Mayor Baird, who was
slightly injured. People rendered home
less by the explosion are being fed by
the stores which have not been wreck
ed by the explosion.
The freight car, belonging to the
Pennsylvania railroad lines, contained
450 boxes, or 100000 pounds, of high
explosives consigned to, the Rand Pow
der company of Clearfield, Tenn.
Two causes are assigned for the ex-
plosion. One is that three men were
shooting at a mark on the car and that
bullet entered the car and caused the
explosion The other is that while the
car was standing on side track a car
load of pig iron was switched against
1t, the impact causing the explosion.
Several persons say they saw persons
firing at the car with rife.
Jellico Is situated ON the Tennessee
Kentucky line, about sixty miles from
Knoxville, the main business portion
of the town being on the Tennessee
side. Two lines OF railroad, the South
ern and the Louisville and Nashville,
enter it. The depot of the Southern,
near the scene of the explosion, was
wrecked.
Many people are homeless, and as
almost every chimney was destroyed
cooking cannot be done in many of the
houses.
Some estimates made of the loss of
life increase the number Of victims to
forty, but it is believed there are not
over two or three more than the nine
accounted for.

MURPHY FOR CHANLER
Tammany Leader Sati to Favor
Hearst's Running Mate For
Democratic Nomination.
WOULD REPEAT FORMER COUP
Plans Repetition of Scheme by Which
Grout and Fornes Were Taken From
Fusion Ticket Three Years Ago.
WIswam's Chiefs Express Opposition
to Independence Leagues Head.

New York, Sept. 22.-Charles f. Muir
ply started for Buffalo, where the
Democratic state convention is to be
held next Tuesday, prepared to at
tempt political coup surprising in
audacity that by which Messrs. Grout
and Fornes were tranferred from the
fusion to the Tammany city ticket in
1908, according to a report here.
He will attempt to bring about the
nomination for governor of Lewis
Stuyvesant Chanler, the Hearst candi-
date for lieutenant governor, unless he
quickly finds that the leaders will not
listen to the proposition, it is said.
Chanler Sentiment Forming.
After a day spent in numerous con
ferences with Tammany leaders, during
which Chanlers name was under dis
cussion, Murphy decided to go to Buf.
falo. His purpose is to confer with
William j. Conners and other up state
leaders about the new scheme.
Mr.. Murphy admitted that Chanler
had been under consideration. There
seems to be considerable sentiment de-
veloping for Chanler," was all he would
say
Murphy's idea, 1t Is said, is to knock
the bottom out of the Hearst forces
and demoralize the ticket. He believes
that by such a stroke he could repeat
the conditions brought about by the
Grout-F ForneS coup. He Is reported to
pride himself upon that episode as the
chief achievement of his career as
Tammany leader.
Murphy has not entirely dropped
Hearst, says one report He is pre-
pared to go back to him, it Is believed,
in case he should find at Buffalo that
1t will be impossible to do anything
with Chanler
Will Talk Over Plan.
Murphy is completely In the dark as
to the possible reception which his new
plan will get, and he may not be pre-
pared to definitely adopt the plan until
he has had chance to talk it over with
all the leaders.
Murphy's switch is believed to be di-
rectly due to the talk he had with
some of the leaders Several Of them
!, who are with Murphy told him fatty
they would not vote for Hearst.
It is said that the Hearst managers
have served notice upon Murphy that
| if he opposes HearstSat Buffalo the In
dependence league will put up ticket
for every local Office from assembly
man to the supreme bench. Another
story is that Murphy made direct
deal with the Hearst forces several
| weeks ago,

NouNcEs SENATOR DoLLlVER
AND COUSINS
Cannon and Shaw Are Both Expected
to Address Political Gatherings In
This Dstrict-campaign Will Be
Opened About October 1.

For the coming campaign have as
surances from Senator Dolliver and
Congressman Cousins and Dawson that
they will speak in the Sixth district"
said W. w. Epps, state committeeman,
this morning, having returned from
the conference and committee meeting
in Des Moines. 1--WE may have Con-
gresham Smith of the Ninth district,
and probably both Secretary Shaw and
Speaker Cannon. We hope to get Mr..
Cannon for couple of speeches. Gov
ernor Cummins will be invited to make
two or three speeches in the district.
1.-THE campaign in the Sixth district
will probably be opened in either, OF
tumwa or Oskaloosa. A meeting will
soon be called which will be participant
ed in by the various county chairmen
outlining the work of the campaign in
the district, but the time and place for
that has not yet been fixed.
For Whole Ticket.
In speaking of the Des Moines con-
ference Mr.. Epps said that there was
an announced purpose on the part Of
Governor Cummins and all of the COM
mittee to work for all the candidates
on the ticket, including the county
nominees throughout the state. It
was reported from different parts Of
the state that the lines of factionalism
were disappearing and the republicans
are getting together in support Of the
| ticket.
Governor Cummins," he said, Eek
pressed himself as believing that the
platform was broad enough for all re-
publicans to stand on; that if man
was for protection, or for revision at
some future time, or for revision imme-
diately he could stand on the platform
adopted by the republicans at Des
Moines."
Takes Back Nothing.
The governor says that he will not
take back anything he said against the
Dingley law, but emphasized the fact
that the administration at Washington
should be upheld in its course. He
looks upon that as the issue in this
campaign, according to Mr. Epps' re-
port Of the talk in the conference.
1t was the consensus of opinion that
the campaign should be short one,
the speaking being commenced about
October 1. There will be some preyi
Gus to that date by Governor Cummins
and some Of the congressman. invita-
lions having already been accepted tc
speak at some special gatherings.
