QUEBEC BRIDGE
STANDS THE TEST
Engineers Favor Cantilever
Style After an Exhaustive
Study Of the Plans

Ottawa, May 9.-After tests made
in Canada, the United
States and England, at the instance
of the Canadian board of engineers.
who have prepared the plans for the
superstructure Of Quebec bridge, the.
engineers have reported to the Hon..
George P. Graham, minister, of rail-
ways and canals, that the plans are
satisfactory. For some days Mr.. Gra-
ham has had information that the
tests made in the United States under
the supervision of Mr.. Vautlett of
Montreal. we're successful and today
he had a cable from Mr.. Fitzmaurice,
the third member of the board of en-
gineers, that the tests made in Eng
land were also successful, in showing
that the plans were satisfactory and
would provide safe and reliable SUI
perstructure.
The engineers have come to the con-
clusion that the cantilever principle
is better than the suspension. The
tests made have demonstrated that
suspension bridge might not be prac-
ticable. The engineers do not con-
tend that other plans than their own
might not be as good, or In some re-
spects better. and they are open yet
to consider plans, but they claim that
from the approved plans, a safe bridge
can be constructed.

Factory
ten PEOPLE KILLED OUTRIGHT
AND FIFTY OTHERS INJURED
Half Ton Boulders Hurled Half q MiIe

Men and Boys Moved Down by the
Flying Fragments.

Ottawa. May 9-Anexplosion which
shook Canada's capital to the founda.
tions and sent the city's population
into the streets in panic, occurred
just before o'clock Sunday night
when the magazine of the General Ex-
ploslves company, located four miles
away across the Ottawa river on the
outskirts of the French city of Hull,
blew up.
Ten persons are known to be dead
and at least fifty are injured, some
very seriously.
A fire broke out In the workshop of
the factory, attracting 10 the neish-
borhood crowd of 1000 men and
boys who had been watching the ball
game In the field nearby. The warn
|tngs were disregarded and the crowd
stayed until two terrific explosions
n1led thhe air with mass of stone
which had formed the walls Of the
factory. Men and boys were moved
down as by the fire Of artillery. The
nearest houses of the workmen were
a quarter of mile from the factory
but the flying debris reached many of
these. In front of one of then Fer
nand Lourin was mangled, while his
wife, who was beside him, was left
uninjured, but covered with the blood
of her husband. Two deaf and dumb
sisters named Carrier we're killed
at their supper table by a half ton
boulder which had Travelled almost a
half mile. Their parents beside
them were also injured. One victims
head was cut clear of by q flying
fragment.
The electric lighting system was
damaged, adding to the difacuhiea
OF searching for the victims. The
company states that the amount of
explosive which went of was uAder
ten tons, but as p1ate glass windows
five miles away we're broken by the
shock, this is considered an underesu-
mate. Practically every window In
Hull was broken and glass was broken
in every part Of Ottawa.
Hull has twice sought orders from
the court for the removal Of this in
dustry, but the company each time has
been able to convince the court that
its methods provided absolute safe
ty. The property damage is about
500, 900.

MRS. HYDE IS
STAR WITNESS
Took the Stand Today in Be.
half of Her Accused
Husband

Kansas City, May 9.-From the lips
of Mrs. B. C. Hyde the jury in her
husbands trial on the charge Of mur-
der today heard the story of the
Swope tragedy. Unused to the experi-
ence to testifying before a crowded
court room Mrs. Hyde was very nerv-
Gus the first few minutes she was on
the stand. The mention of the name
of her cousin. Moss Hunton, brought
tears to her eyes and she was unable
to speak. The court room became
silent. Attorney Walsh ceased to
question the witness, as it was feared
she might collapse, but after sobbing
a few minutes Mrs. Hyde composed
herself and was able to proceed with
her testimony. Thereafter she spoke
terrogation without difficulty.
The salient features of her testi-
mony were her declarations as fol-
lows: That DR.. Twyman adjusted
the string which stopped the flow of
blood from Hunton's body; that she
did not request her husband to stop
the bleeding; that Col. Thomas Swope
never cried out on his deathbed that
he wished he had never taken the
medicine Hyde gave him; that the
millionaire's symptoms were entire
lily different from those described by
the nurses who testified for the state:
that Miss Keller. the nurse who swore
DR.. Hyde asked her to use her in
fluence with Col. Swope to have the
physician made an administrator Of
the millionaire's estate overheard the
witness and Hyde discussing such a
plan. that the remedies of Jordan, the
"yarb" man. were used by Chrisman
Swope until a few days before his
death; that she ate Of the candy
which DR.. Hyde gave to the Swope
children and it did not make her i'll;
that she ordered filtered water taken
to the Swope house and that the
family is now using 1t. Mrs. Hyde's
direct examination was not finished
at noon. The court room was ordered
cleared that the jury might exercise.
Upon the result OF experiments now
being made in the laboratories at the
University of Kansas to determine
whether the injection into corpse of
the kind of embalming fluid used on
the body of Col. Swope will create
hydrocyanic acid. depends the course
Of the testimony in the trial this week.
Hydrocyanic acid Is a property Of
cyanide.

AMBASSADOR

Deplores War; Talk But Says
It Shows the Danger of

Hartford, Conn., May s.-Although
unable to attend the New England
Peace and Arbitration congress, which
convened here today. Ambassador
James Bryce sent the following, letter
embodying his views on peace and
arbitration:
1T is a matters Of great regret to
me that cannot attend the meeting
of the New England Peace and Arbi-
tration congress owing to the numer-
GUS other engagements which l have

stration so large and so earnest as
that which this conference ia expect
ed to give will proceed from the peo-
pie of New England.
"The importancefof the question it.
self cannot be exaggerated and you
are right in thinking that it ought to
be constantly kept before public at
tention.
Though the feeling disclosed at
similar congresses in the past has
been most encouraging, and though
none now ventures openly to oppose
the propaganda In which you are en-
gagged. there are still some disgusting
symptoms which cannot be ignored
All the great nations profess to de-

upon the peoples. bf course. each ma
tion declares that. these ornaments

population. This sentiment when
some cause of International dispute
arises, which, though possibly real, is

Change IN Program.

Berlin, May 9.-The emperor has
now decided to accept Mr.. Roosevelt's
suggestion regarding changes In the
program for his reception in Berlin,
and notified the American ambassador
this afternoon that he will not meet
the ex-prelident at the railway sta
ton and will not be able to receive
him as his guest in the Berlin castle.
The emperor also has explained to
Ambassador Hill that he is 90 over
whelmed by the death Of King Edward
that he regards it az improper to at
tend any of the dinners to be given in
Mr.. Roosevelt's honor, and therefore,
excuses himself, with cordial assur.

at the dinner which the ambassador
himself will give. '
Nor will the emperor attend Chan

ner, as he intended but the chancel-
lor and Herr Won Schoen, secretary
for foreign affairs, will be present at
Ambassador Hills dinner, although
the ambassador must omit invitations
to all persons of the court circles, the
emperor today having ordered four
weeks Of mourning.

no way disarrange his plans, in which
nothing whatever inappropriate to

The curtailment Of the general pro.

its members q pleasant surprise. He
