-FOUR PERi0NS ARE
KILLED BY DYNAMITE
Hurled to leath By Car Of the
Explosive.
NEARLY Twenty ARE INJURED.
Bystanders at Country Station in
Missouri Torn to Pieces When With
out Warning, a Freight Car Blows
Up--Cause of Accident Has Not
Been Discovered.

Kansas City, Mo- Especially From
four to eight persons are reported
dead and from 16 to 20 others in
jured, some of them perhaps fatally,
as the result of the explosion of a
car of dynamite at Windsor, Mo-
SO much confusion exists at Windsor
that accurate figures on the casual
ties were unobtainable.
The dead number four, as follows:
Frederick Yates, station agent of
the Missouri, Kansas & Texas Rail-
way.
Dee Hall, of Windsor, drayman.
An unknown tramp.
An unknown laborer.
Yates and Dee Hall, the latter a
drayman, were the most horribly
mangled, though many received
broken bones and were terribly cut
The injured were made} up of the
usual crowd commonly found about
the railway station of the small town
at train time. The explosion occur
red without warning, and the vic
Tins had no opportunity to escape
1t was of such force that 1t tore a
great hole in the ground where the
car had stood and hurled pieces of
the wrecked car and platform in all
directions. The town was shaken
as If by an earthquake, and the ex-
plosion was heard from a radius of
80 miles Most of the wreckage,
fortunately, was sent in the opposite
direction from the station, and to
this fact alone may be laid the small
loss of life.
Unusual excitement followed the
explosion, but as quickly as possible
the dead and dying were carried to
nearby houses and cared for. The
telegraph wires were snapped by the
explosion, cutting off communica-
tion by that means with outside
points. AS soon as the neighboring
towns were apprised of the catas-
trophe, aid was sent in from half
a dozen places.
The car containing the dynamite
was attached to a southbound Mis-
souri,, Kansas & Texas freight train
Windsor, Mo-, where the explosion
occurred, is a town of about 500
persons, situated in Heney County
21 miles southwest of Sedalia. 1t
is in the center of rich farming
community, and has newspaper Of
fee, five churches, a Touring mill
and two carriage factories. There
is another town of the same name
in Jefferson County, in the eastern
part of the State.

ALL EUROPEAN
RECORDS BROKEN
Wilbur Wright Flies Forty Minutes
In France.

LIE Mans (By Cable). - On the
field of Auvours Wilbur Wright, the
aeroplanist of Dayton. Ohio, eclipsed
all European records for sustained
aeroplane flight. He remained in
the air for 39 minutes and IS 80
seconds. This gives the Wright
brothers the records for both hemi-
spheres.
Mr.. Wright cireled over the field
at an average height of 45 feet. He
turned and twisted in every direc-
tion and his complete mastery of the
aeroplane aroused great enthusiasm
among the spectators. 1t is esti-
mated that he covered 26 miles.
M. Bollee, president of the Aero
Club of the Sarthe, was the official
timer. Mr.. Wright used his old
motor, which has been causing him
much trouble, but which had bten
dismounted and completely overhaul
ed. Upon alighting Mr.. Wright said
he could have remained in the air
longer had not the gasoline become
exhausted.
Mr.. Wright was out again In the
evening and for the first time car
ried a passenger on his aeroplane,
Ernest Zens, a well-known French
aeronaut. occupying the other seat
in the machine.
On the first attempt the aero
plane failed to leave the ground, but
on the second attempt 1t scared
gracefully and described a great cir
Gle and the figure 8. 1t then de-
scended easily. having been in the
air for two minutes, 90 h seconds.
The machine covered a distance OF
about mile and half at an aver
age height of 80 feet.
Mr.. Wright has notified the Aero
Club that he will compete for the
clubs prize OF $1,000 for the longest
flight over an enclosed ground. He
will compete at the same time also
for the Michel $4,000 cup for the
greatest distance covered by an aero
plane in 1908.

men KILLED ON
THE STEAMER COLON
Ship Has Terrible Experience In
Hurricane.

Colon (By Cable) The steam
ship Colon, half-masted and showing
other evidences of distress. came
limping into this port. She had been
badly battered by the hurricane en-
countered Sunday.
Three members of her crew lost
their lives while engaged in the hold
repairing a water tank.
The Colon belongs to the Panama
Railroad Company. She left New
York September 10, and was due to
arrive Friday. She encountered the
hurricane at point 40 miles north
of Waiting Island. The wind blew
100 miles an hour and tremendous
seas soon were sweeping over the yes
sci. The staterooms and the din
ing saloon were flooded, one of her
smokestacks were carried away, three
boats we're washed overheard, and
the wireless telegraph apparatus was
dismantled. Orders were given that
no passengers be allowed on deck,
and the travellers had to spend Sun
day and Sunday night in the dining
saloon. The water got to the mail
bags and the registered and ordinary
mail was badly damaged. Sunday
night passed with the ship laboring
through the storm and passengers
huddled below in a state of panic.
Killed BY Gas.
Early Monday morning 1t was dis
covered that salt water was making
its way into the forward fresh water
tank. Fearing that the fresh water
trta -
engineer, William Liley, and his
ships carpenter, j. Olsen, were sent
down into the hold Monday after
noon to change the tank connection.
The two men we're below for an hour
without giving any signs of return
ing. Anxious for their safety, r. Bar
thl, a water tender, and A. Sands, a
junior engineer, volunteered u go
below and learn what had happen
ed.
Barthl was the first to enter the
hold, with Sands a few feet behind
him. Barthl had walked but few
PAGES when he was seen to drop.
Sands staggered and fell, but man
aged to make his way back to the
hatch ladder whence he was assisted
to the deck by the chief engineer
He was partially unconscious and in
a condition of prostration.
It was then seen that the hold was
filled with deadly gases and all hope
for the three men had to be given
up.
When the storm abated efforts
we're made to reach the missing men.
The matches were removed and the
foul air was pumped out of the hold
until 1t was possible to go below.
The bodies Of Liley. Olsen and Bar
thl were then found. Just what
caused the presence of these deadly
gases in the hold of the Colon has
not been explained.

CHANDLER IS NAMED
BY ACCLAMATION
Democrats Nominate Him For Gov
ernor of New York

Rochester Especially New York's 5
Democratic Convention was like a
love feast. The whetted knives of
the warning partisans were concealed
up their sleeves, perhaps, but still
concealed-and the delegates pro-
ceeded to name Lewis Stuyvesant
Chanler, now Lieutenant Governor,
by acclamation for Governor of the
State.
In similar fashion and with un-
diminished enthusiasm the other
nominations on the slate were put
through. They are as follows:
Governor-Lewis Stuyvesant Chan
Ter, of Dutchess.
Lieutenant Governor-John A Dix,
of Washington.
Attorney General-George NJ. Pal
mer, of Schoharie.
Secretary of State-John S. Wha-
len, of Monroe.
Martin H. Glynn, of
Albany.
State Treasurer-Julios Hauser,
of Suffolk.
State Engineer and Surveyor

prefaced by the credentials commit
tee, that reported "no contests" and
seated all the McCarren delegates
from Brooklyn.

A GREAT BATTLE
WITH WHITE PLAGUE
tuberculosis Crusade to Open In
Washington.
ALL NATIONS WILL Be REPRESENTED.
Scientists, Physicians and Laymen
From the Ends of the Earth Will
Be in Attendance at the Information
al Conference, the First Meeting Of
Which Was Held Monday.

Washington, d. G. Especially For
the next three weeks the national
capital will be the scene Of such a
crusade as never before has been
witnessed against humanity's worst
foe-the white plague. 1t will be
an educational campaign world wide
In its scope, the ultimate object of
which is to eradicate, IL possible,
from the ends of the earth a disease
which, statistical experts declare, cut
short the lives of from one-tenth to
one-eighth OF the civilized population.
Such distinguished foreigners as
Drs. Robert Koch, of Berlin; Bang, of
Copenhagen; A. Calmette, of Lille,
France; N. Theodore Tendeloo, of
Leyden; X. w. Philip, of Edinburgh;
c. Won Pirquet, of VIENNA G. Sims
Woodhead, of Cambridge; Lydia
Rabinowitsch, Of Berlin; Camilo Cal
leja, of Vallaolid, Spain; T. Ishigami,
of Osaka, Japan, and noted American
physicians and scientists and others
effort to solve this problem will ac-
lively participate.
The campaign will be carried on
by the coming International Congress
on tuberculosis on its sixth annual
session, which will meet in the United
States for the first time at the New
National Museum in this city. This
congress, which might fittingly be
called real worlds congress on tu-
berculosis, will mark an epoch in the
anti-tuberculosis movement in this
country. Such a distinguished gath
ering probably will not meet again
in this country for many years, for
the honor of entertaining the con-
gress Is eagerly sought by foreign
countries.
The initial step will be taken when
there will be a jubilee opening at the
New National Museum in connection
with the congress and tuberculosis
exposition. It will be one of the
largest, the most important and, in
every way, the most comprehensive,
exhibits ever assembled.
1t will be illustrative Of what is
being done throughout the world in
the fight against tuberculosis. While
the display is connected with the con-
gress, 1t Is not so closely related as
to be taken as the official opening of
the congress. That important event
will occur one week later--Septembe
2S.
Scientists of international reputa-
tion will be in attendance through
out the congress. They will explain
the influence and effect of the cru
sade against consumption and the
most advanced methods for its treat
ment and prevention.

HUGHES WINS
denomination
New York Governor Nominated To
Succeed Himself.

Saratoga, N. Y. Especially The
Republican State convention nominat-
ed this State ticket without conten-
tion:
For Governor-Charles E. Hughes,
of New York.
For Lieutenant Governor-Horace
White, of Onondago.
For Secretary of State-Samuel S.
Koenig, of New York.
For State Treasurer-Thomas B.
Dunn, of Monroe.
For Comptroller - Charles H.
Cause, of Albany.
For Attorney Edward r.
O'Mailley, of Erie.
For State Engineer and Surveyor
Frank NJ. Williams, of Madison
For Associate Judge of Court of
Appeals--Albert Haight. of Erie.
Governor Charles E. Hughes was
renomlnated before the roll call on
the first ballot was half completed.
At the end of the ballot the Gov
ernor had S27 votes, Speaker James
w. Wadsworth 151. and John X.
Stewart 81.
The motion to make the nomi-
nation unanimous was made by Will
liam Barnes, Jr., of Albany County,
who had only few minutes before
assailed the Governors political at
titude.
After the failure of the anti
Hughes forces to unite upon can
didate to beat Hughes, everybody
knew that the Governors Victory
was absolutely assured. 1t was only
a question of how many votes he
would get, and how fast certain of
the delegations would swing into
line.

its runners for 30 feet the machine
rose gradually aud had gained a
height of 40 feet when II passed
over the starting apparatus for the
first time. There was six-mile wind
and IL was noticed that the machine
did not run as smoothly as on its
former flights, most of which were
made in calm weather. The aero
pianist. however. apparently had con-
troll of the aerial flyer. which rose to
height of rs feet as II completed
the second round of the field. This
height was maintained on the third
round.
While the machine was turning at
the southern end of the field, several
thousand feet from the spectators,
some one shouted;
What is that? Something fell!"
Immediately all eyes were on the
aeroplane. and 1t was seen to turn
over on its left side and, pausing a
moment, made a complete turn and
then came swooping to the earth
in a cloud of dust No effort on the
part OF the aviator could possibly
have averted the accident. Planes
and rudders we're absolutely incap-
able of righting the machine when
it had turned in that manner.
Several officers. who were stand
ing around the starting apparatus,
ordered the mounted soldiers over
to the wreck. but spectators, soldiers,
officers and newspaper men we're al
ready running across the field. 1t
was fully a minute before anyone
reached the tangled lass.
