Although. the Enterprise in its
last issue called special attention
of the party who has a $4,000 libel

would have to file the cause for

This does not surprise us in the

belief that the party does not dare
to file the suit for trial at the Sep

EXPLOSION IN STEEL WORKS.
Twenty-Four Men Thought To Have
Been Cremated.

Pittsburg, Pa, Jan. 10.-A disastrous
explosion occurred at the Eliza fur
naces of the Jones & Laughlin steel
works, when large quantity of gas
which had accumulated at the base Of
the furnaces became ignited. Tons
of molten metal were showered around
the furnace for radius of 40 feet
Out Of force Of 35 men employed at
the furnace when the explosion oc.
Cured, three-John Cramer, Andrew
Featherka and Gustave Tessler-have
been taken to the morgue, their bodies
horribly mutilated by the fire. Seven
men are in the hospital fatally in
jured and "a others have not been ac-
counted for. While the mill officials
are inclined to believe that all of the
missing men were not cremated in the
molten metal, nothing definite is
known as to their present where
abouts.
The officials at the mill refused to
allow anyone to enter the yard where
the furnace is located.

PoIand's PitiabIe Condition.

The situation of Poland to-day is
pitiable. Business in Warsaw has
fallen off so per cent. and more; the
fashionable boulevards are partly de-
serted; the restaurants are but half
filled, and the leading hotel is running
at a loss. The city swarms with
troops, but martial law brings only
oppression, not security. Hardly q
day passes but officials are killed or
wounded by the terrorists, while sus.
pected persons are arrested, dubbed
or shot to death by the authorities.
The terrorists are strong enough to
defy the government, while the gov.
ernment is strong enough to crush a
general revolt, and the result is an.
archy. When it will end no one can
tell. But some day, says G. H. Blakes-
lee in the Outlook, peace will surely
come, for Poland is to have autonomy.
The Poles demand it. The great ma.
jority of the Russian Duma has prom
ised it, and Russian liberalism must
eventually win.

SPOILED THE WEDDING CAKE
And NowicseII, In His Fury, Fatally
Shot Frank Tabisx.

Pittsburg, Penn, Jan. 14.--A we'd
ding cake ruthlessly dashed from the
mands of a woman carrying it result
ed in what may develop into murder
on the Forty-third street bridge.
Frank Fabisz is dying at West Penn
hospital with built in his side, while
John Nowicseil, his wife and 16 other
foreigners are under arrest as wit
nesses.
The couple, with two male compan-
ions, were crossing the bridge. The
women was carrying the large cake,
which she won at a wedding celebra-
ton. Fabisz and two other men were
crossing the bridge, and Fabisz after
chiding Nowicsell for not relieving his
wife of the burden, knocked the cake
out of the women's hands, causing it
to be smashed into bits on the bridge
flooring.
Angered at the affront Nowicsell
drew a revolver and shot Fabisz. The
latter will die. The woman declares
to the police that it was she and not
her husband who fired the shot. The
revolver was found hidden in her UNI
brella, but witnesses say that her hus-
band fired the shot.

IN HUGH SNONDRIF rs
ARE TRAINS STALLED ON WEST
ERIN RAILROADS.
THE STORM CONTINUES UNABATED
People of Fuel Famine Districts In
Great Distress, With Little
Hope of Relief.

st. Paul, Mimi, Jan. PA terrific
snowstorm has prevailed in Western
Minnesota and North Dakota during
the past Sc hours and is extending
as far south as Southern Wisconsin.
Trains from the west are from "a
hours to As hours late, and in many
cases the railroads do not know
where the trains are stalled. The
snow is from four to ten feet deep.
Trains from the Pacific coast are in
the snow and there is no immediate
prospect that they will be brought out
under week. Railroad men are dis
couraged because the shipments of
coal made this week to the fuel fam
inc districts are stalled.
J. J. Hill has taken personal charge
of these shipments, but advices re-
ceived at the Great Northern head
quarters said that no coal could be
sent through west of Grand Forks
owing to the blockade. Thirty-one
trains of coal are west OF st. Paul on
this line, while on the Northern Pa
cific and Southern there are an equal
number. All are stalled in the snow
drifts, even to the smokestacks. Cat
tie are being killed to save them from
starving. The lights Of more than 100
towns in North Dakota were eXtin
guished about week ago and the tai
low candle supply is about exhausted.
A railroad traffic official said: 1--WE
are up against the hardest PROPOSE.
tion ever presented to us. We are
spending thousands Of dollars day
in an attempt to open branch lines,
but the weather is against US. We
have east of the Montana lines 132
freight and live stock trains. At sew
eral stations we have unloaded the
cattle and given the stock all the feed
that could be obtained, amounting to
twice the freight traffic, and yet we
fear the live stock will die before
enough feed can be obtained or the
roads cleared of the blockade. The
Great Northern, Northern Pacific and
500 lines report seven trains of pas
sengers stalled in North Dakota, with
no prospect of getting out immediate
ly and with the possibility that en-
gines have gone dead for want of
fuel"

SYMPATHY ON THE WRONG SIDE
DURING A RECENT WAR, WAS
MecoRMIcK's UNDoNc.
Utteranees Made On His Return From
Russia Brought Forth a
Reprimand BY Hay.

New York, Jan. IA Washington
dispatch says:
Robert S. Mccormick, the American
ambassador at Paris, who will retire
from the American diplomatic service
within two months, will retire because
his conduct at st. Petersburg during
the Russian-Japanese war met with
the the disapproval Of President
Roosevelt, and not because of his ac-
tivities in marrying Miss Patterson,
his niece, to a Polish nobleman. Miss
Patterson is the daughter of the own
er of one Of the leading publications
Of Chicago, and her marriage to Count
GyZftski was approved by her parents.
This wedding was one of the so
cial events of Washington about
three years ago, and the ceremony
was attended by Ambassador and Mrs.
Mccormick. This marriage had moth
ing to do with the coming retirement
of Ambassador Mccormick.
While stationed at st. Petersburg
Ambassador Mccormick espoused the
cause of Russia in its war with Japan.
during hostilities Mr.. Mccormick was
granted leave of absence and he re-
turned to the United States. Upon
landing at New York he found the
sympathy of the country was with ia.
pan. This displeased Ambassador Nc.
Cormick and in an interview, which
was published throughout the country,
he reprimanded the American people,
who, he declared, were ungrateful in
sympathizing with Japan, as Russia
was the friend of the United States
and had threatened to send fleet OF
warships to the assistance of the Unit
ed States during the civil war when
Great Britain was preparing to assist
the confederacy. This interview was
heartily disapproved by President
Roosevelt, who strongly favored the
instant dismissal of Ambassador Nc
Cormick. The president was induced
to allow Mr.. Mccormick to remain in
the diplomatic service, but he was
transferred from St. Petersburg to
Paris without being consulted.
This action was taken after Secre.
tary Hay then secretary of state, had
summoned Ambassador Mccormick, to
the department and administered
severe reprimand. At the conclusion
of the interview Secretary Hay agreed
to allow Ambassador Mccormick to re-
main in the diplomatic service for one
year. This time limit was extended
one year, and now a successor has been
chosen for the American ambassador
at Paris. Henry White, the American
ambassador at Rome, has been selec-
ed to succeed Mr.. Mccormick, who will
retire when Postmaster-GeneralC Cortel-
you becomes secretary of the treasury.
This change will occur in March, and
thus a number of changes will take
place in the diplomatic corps, although
no successor has been chosen to fill
the vacancy of Ambassador Meyer, who
will become postmaster general.

Romance of Motor Travel.

The motor car has rescued the ro-
nance of travel, freeing it from the ir-
ritating compulsions and contacts of
the railway, the bondage to fixed
hours and the beaten track and ap-
proach to each town through the area
of ugliness and desolation created by
the railway itself. With the motor,
says Edith Wharton, in Atlantic, we
have regained the wonder, the ad-
venture and the novelty which en-
livened the way of our posting grand
parents; above all, the delight of TAX
dng a town unawares, stealing on it
by back ways and unchronicled paths,
surprising in it some intimate aspect
of past time, some silhouette hidden
for half a century or more by the ugly
mask of railway embankments and the
glass and iron bulk of n huge station
Then the villages that one missed and
yearned for from the windows of the
train-the villages have been given
back to us.
