THOUSANDS IN WILD PANIC
SHOCK OF EXPLOSION AT WOOL
WITCH (ENG.) ARSENAL FELT,
FORTY MILES DISTANT.

Woolwich, Eng, Feb. PA large
hole in the ground is all that marks
the site of the chemical research de-
partment of the WoolWich arsenal and
the cordite magazine, which exploded
early in the day with such terrific
force that the conclusion was felt in
towns forty miles away and the whole
countryside was thrown into a panic
owing to the belief that a violent
earthquake had occurred There was
no loss of life, but buildings for miles
around were more or less damaged by
the explosion.
Within few minutes after the ex-
plosion thousands of terror stricken
people, many of them half clad,
thrOnged towards the arsenal There
were large holes in the walls of neigh
boring houses and on all sides shat
tered doors and windows and wrecked
roofs testified to the appalling force
of the explosion of cordite and chem
icals with which the arsenal and maya
zine were stocked. These buildings
were practically swept away, the big
blocks of stone of which they were
constructed being scattered for hun
dreds of yards on all sides.
The people of Braintree, forty miles
away, we're thrown into panic by the
shock of the explosion, while in nearer
towns windows were shattered and
chimneys demolished

SIXTY BOYS ON BOARD.
Cchoo!ship Saratoga Has Lively Ex-
perience at Sea.

perIence at Sea.
Delaware Breakwater, Del, Feb. 12
Storm swept and leaking the Penn
syivania schoolship Saratoga, which
left Philadelphia Jan % for winters
cruise in the West indies, was towed
into the harbor here in distress by
the tug Asa w. Hughes.
On Jan. ~, when 200 miles north of
Bermuda, the old frigate was struck
by a northwest gale, which sent the
vessel foundering through seas which
for time threatened to engulf her.
For days the Saratoga was hove to,
but the seas continued to strike the
vessels blunt bow until a leak was
sprung. Commander Atwater put all
available hands to the pumps and, to
the young seamen's credit, none hest,
tated to do all possible to assist in
bringing the vessel back to port.
AS the Bermuda islands were still
100 miles distant after the storm had
spent it's fury a course was shaped for
the Delaware Breakwater
The Saratoga will be towed back to
Philadelphia as soon as possible for a
survey and repairs. There are about
sixty boys on the vessel and the.
have had an experience they never
expected. The Saratoga is an ole
time frigate built at the Portsmouth
IN. H. hayward in 1842

SHOTS CAME FROM THE TOWN.

on Fort Brown

Washington, Feb. 12-The "shoot-
ing up" of the town of Brownsville,
Tex, was in the form of an attack
upon the garrison at Fort Brown, &C
cording to the testimony given by
Mingo Sanders, former first sergeant
of Company B, Twenty-ffth infantry,
before the senate committee on mill
tary affairs. Sanders story created
something of a stir in the committee,
as he said that while running from
his quarters to Company B barracks
after being awakened by the firing on
the night of Aug. Ii the shooting was
going on and it came from the town
and was toward the hospital on the
military reservation. He said bullets
were whizzing over his head. This is
the first direct testimony given by any
of the discharged negro soldiers that
the fire came from the town.
Il heard some one yell fall in f" he
said. 'Then some one shouted to get
the guns. Somebody answered that
they could not get the guns, as the
racks were locked Then Lieutenant
Greer, knew his voice, said, break
the racks open.'''

EXPLAIN CANAL CONTRACT.
Taft and Shonts Appear Before House
- q < Committee.

~ - Committee.
Washington, Feb. 12.-Secretary
Taft, Chairman Shonts of the 18TH
milan canal commission and R. R.
Rogers, general counsel for the COM
mission, appeared before the house
committee on interstate and foreign
commerce to explain the proposed ca
nal contract and the plan to merge
the Panama Railway company's man
agement with the canal commission.
Mr.. Rogers explained that the chief
purpose of the contract is to permit
the government to avail itself of the
practical experience and efficient Ia
Dor organizations of an association of
contractors. The percentage to be
paid the contractors is to be only on
the cost of labor and not on supplies
and equipment, which are to be sup
piled by the government.
In discussing cement Mr. Rogers
said there had been an investigation
of stone on the isthmus thought de-
sirable for. cement and it may be de-
cided later to have the contractors
manufacture cement on the canal
zone. The contract is so Worded that
the cement may be obtained in what
ever way the commission may deem
best.
Small hand tools are the only sup
plies which the contractor will supply
under the contract.

RACE TROUBLE IN OREGON.
laps Who Displaced White Laborers
Driven From Town.

WOODBURY., Ore, Feb. 12.-Much
feeling was engendered here by the
Southern Pacific laying off white men
employed On the railroad section at
this point and replacing them with
eight or ten Japanese.
The feeling ran SO high that fifty
Americans called at the sectionhouse
and warned the Japanese to leave
town. There was no violence and the
Japanese promised to leave and they
departed for Portland within the limit
specified.
A. Schwabeur, the section foreman,
refused to work with them and re.
signed his position.
Warrants will be sworn out for the
arrest of the ringleaders of the crowd
that drove the Japanese out.
