Shortly after 5 o'clock a terrific explosion

of 213 Newark avenue, Jersey City. and
John Lees, So years old, of los Linwood
street, Brooklyn, were the only employees
in the room. Hunter was standing between
the tank and the outer wall. The bottom
of the tank was blown downward into a
pit. The corrugated iron wall was blown
out. and the young man shot like a cannon
ball out into the street. A Mrs. Bannon,
who lives opposite the factory, saw him
and on the sidewalk and upset a man. The
f.. after was badly frightened and Apparently
thought he had been struck by a dead man,
as he jumped up quickly and did not stop
running until he disa ppeared in a saloon.
Hunter was badly scalded on his back
and limbs.
Lees, who stood further away from the
tank. was scalded on the back Of his head
with boiling glycerine. He refused to go
to a hospital for treatment. saying that he
left his wife i'll at home when he went to
work and did not wish to alarm her.
The police were notified that a serious
accident had happened. and the reserves Of
the First and Second precincts. under the
command OF Sergt. Thomas Finnie, were
sent to the plant. The officers had hard work
keeping back the excited people of the
n~eighborhood. who we're scared by the
loud explosion.
An ambulance surgeon from the City
Hospital examined Hunter and declared
chat the young man would soon recover
from the effects Of his awful experience.
Mrs. Bannon was sure she saw him come
through the hole in the wall. Hunter was
taken 70 st. Francis Hospital.

CALL III RoOSEvELT,s VICTORY.
Paris Press Comments on tho American
Election.


Special cd6ls Despatch 10 Tn. suN.
PARIS, Nov. 10.-The American election
formed the subject OF editorial discussion
very largely in the Paris press both before,
during and after the balloting and there is
scarcely a journal OF importance which has
not treated the subject both as u the news
and the meaning OF the result. Contrary
to some former habits OF European writer's,
those treating the matter this year have
shown a sincere desire for the most part to
enlighten their readers as to the true situa-
ton, always with particular reference to
President Roosevelt and Mr.. Hearst.
b writer's have been especially careful
to point out the dangerous character OF Mr..
Hearst's demagogy, though describing
him as an interesting type OF American
development. They ave also been careful
to show that only the greatest consideration
for h moral welfare OF the republic led
President Roosevelt to overstep the tradi-
tional conservation OF the Presidency and
take grave risks Of arousing sntagonism
by interfering in a State election
All seem to be satisfied that it was Roose-
velt's victory. They attribute New York's
pivotal victory TO him. but one ~satirist to-
day says that despite it's Anglo-Saxon
superiority America has something to
learn from France, because the President
there remains the chief Of the party instead
OF solely the head OF the country. 1t is
fair to say. however. that other Frenchmen
have prayed for a President who would
dare as Roosevelt dared. All the discus
sion has been frankly based on the essential
sympathy. economically and politically
speaking, between the two republics.

Merv, Bokhard and Samarkand are to-day

These garrisons are increasing every year.,
for this is a military empire which In grow

PARIS, Nov. IO.-Paris has two women

At last the abuse OF cab horses in Paris,
Of which many Americans and English

with a scrap Of horse sense has been obliged
to acknowledge that the public drivers Of
Paris know nothing about horses, jud ging
from the way they treat them. This has at
last been officially recognized by the local
Society for the Prevention OF Cruelty to

lied where drivers will be taught how to

will likely be to include policemen as pupils.

PARIS, Nov. 1O.-The theft of a leaden

yesterday. The same day a man was

mainly conjectural. as to the possible Gull
prits in the case Of h two recent Louvre
thefts. These were possibly due to the
dissatisfaction Of the guardians at the
museum and were what the American
police would call inside jobs, because both
the statue OF Isis and the leaden figurine
were objects Of small value artistically and
financially.
The most interesting discovery has been
that Of a broken key in the keyhole of one
OF the Louvre cases. but this has not led

Special Cable Despatch TO The SUN.
LONDON. Nov. IO.-When Alderman
Broadbent. a brother Of the Kings we'll
known physician, took Office as Mayor OF
Huddersfield. on November o. 1904. his novel
scheme to reduce infant mortality was de-
tailed in these dispatches. He offered TO
give parents living in a specified district OF
the city So for every child born during his
twelve months in Office and which lived
TO the age OF q year. The scheme drew
forth eulogies from the Princess OF Wales,
President Roosevelt and other distinguished
people, and has been watched with the
greatest interest by all interested in vital
statistics.
The result of the experiment was an
nounced yesterday. the second anniversary
Of its Inauguration. The rate of infant
mortality in the Longwood district Of
Huddersield, which is the experimental
area, had averaged i72 per thousand for
the preceding ten years. Tho period OF the
test proved somewhat unfortunate There
were serious epidemics OF whooping cough
and measles, while the summer OF 1903 was
one OF the deadliest recorded. The first
baby to earn the gift was born On November
10. 1904, and the last on November 8. 1905.
The mothers notified the managing COM
mittee Of the births of these babies. No
fewer than l07 received the gift. Four
died and one did not claim the gift and it's
fate cannot be learned. II, however, IL il
reckoned as dead the average mortality
works out "a per thousand as compared
with the previous i22 per thousand.

done through a committee OF volunteer
women workers who undertook to advise
and assist the parents il they 50 desired.
The babies belonged TO all classes and
there was no discrimination. Some lived
in places which were hardly better han
