8 EXPLOSION VICTIMS
LONDON TENEMENTS COLLAPSE
AND MANY ARE INJURED.

LONDON. April 6.-Two old tenement
houses in Castle street. oxford street,
collapsed early this morning. as result.
it is supposed. of a gas explosion. 1t is
believed that forty people, mostly German
walters. are buried in the debris. At 6
o'clock four dead bodies and twenty in
jured persons had been removed from the
ruins.
Up to loon eight dead bodies had been
taken from the ruins of the Castle street
tenements. and 1t was believed that sew
eral others are still buried in the debris.
Twenty persons have been taken out
alive, but none of them Is seriously in
jured.
The accident, which was at first
thought to be due to- an explosion of gas.
now turns out to have been caused
through the foundations of the structures
being weakened by the excavations for
new building adjoining.

moned to qualify as Jurors in the impend-

nd-Schneider land fraud case, ordered
that another special venire of 100 men be
called to be in court later today.
A panel of fifty men was summoned aft
err the adjournment of court Friday after
noon, but the gap to be filled in the Jury
was still further enlarged when Justice
Stafford excused from service three of
the talesmen who had been tentatively ac-
cepted last week.

change of heart after being kept together
since Friday, and Charles E. Burdette,
Egbert A. Pitkin. John P. Dunn. Elmer

REFUSES TO TAKE IT UP.
Senate Votes Against Consideration
of DolliYer Bill.

SEuHC6 VUCeS z1S d1HSC CUuS1UeIdCIU
of Dolliver Bill.
Senator Burkett of Nebraska tried to
get consideration again today for the DOL
liver school bill reorganizing the local
public school system by moving that the
Senate take 1t up at 2:30 o'clock. When
the matter was put to vote the Senate
Overwhelmingly decided not to touch it
today. Senator Burkett's vote was prac.
tically the only one in the affirmative.
The impression prevails at the Capitol
that the Dolliver bill lost prestige, rather
than gained, by the discussion last Thurs
day. 1t is expected that Mr.. Burkett will
have more difficulty than before in get
ting 1t considered, now that the Senate
knows how much debate it will stir up
The bill is in exactly the same position
as far as its chanc. IS of passage are con-
cerned than it was a week ago.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The higher levels reached in the case Of
some Of the more active securities on the
list-or at least those that belong to the
group usually thus desfgnated--were main
tanned today. and were exceeded.
For example. the preferred stock OF the
Washington Railway and Electric Com
pany and also the common stock and
Capital Traction stock all sold for much
higher figures than have prevailed OF
late, and 1t was evident there was not
much stock to be had at those prices. for
the advances we're made without bringing
out very much.
1t is evident that the failure OF the con-
ferees to reach an agreement Saturday on
the Union station bill. and more espe-
cially the amendments to that bill. was
not looked upon as unfavorable for the
traction companies. for otherwise 1t might
be Inferred that these securities would
show weakness, which, however, did not
prove to be the case.
Beyond the rather limited trading in
these securities. there was very little done
except to put the figures in the ball
ance Of the list, with slight changes and
in a sort Of perfunctory manner. The
revival Of interest in the stock market
has not reached this city. or at least got
ten as far as the local exchange, and
judging from the accounts of the state
of the Wall street market it has not
reached that locality as yet. 1t is. how
ever. expected with much confidence, and
in the near future.
A couple of men staggered into the
boardroom while the call was in progress
bearing a great floral piece. which was the
method adopted by the associates on the
board of Mr.. w. B. Hibbs of expressing
to him their appreciation of what he had
done for the board. as the presid mt OF the
exchange. Mr.. Hume. observed in the
course Of brief but felicitous speech of
presentation, as well as for what he had
done for the city by the erection Of the
fine building. the formal opening Of which
is being celebrated today.
Mr.. Hibbs. In trying to tell how much
he was gratifed by this manifestation OF
good feeling on the part of his fellow
members. said that 1t might appear to be
something of an undertaking to have
carried on the building through year of
panic, but he felt at this time to try to
put into words his feelings would be even
greater undertaking.
This incident Of the meeting proved to
be a pleasant one. and was enjoyed alike
by the recipient as by those who united
in making the gift.
