EX-PREMIER MAURA SHOT.

Senor Antonio Maura, erstwhile
prime minister, was shot at the Francia
station at Barcelona, Spain, at l1:SO
O'Clock last night Upon alighting
from train from Madrid man fired
three shots at the statesman, one
woundirg him in the leg. Maura's
wounds arc not serious. The man was
arrested.
Senor Maura, who has been success
lively minister of justice, minister Of
the interior and prime minister, OF
Spain, has been for years the object OF
bitter hate on the part OF the extreme
radical element in Spain. Several at
tempts have been made on his life. In
April, 1904, during King Alfonso's visit
to Barcelona, when the monarch was
accompanied by Senor Maura, the pre-
mier, the latter was stabbed by an an
archist and was only saved from death
by the fact that he was wearing a uni
form OF very thick material. Two
weeks later another attempt was made
to slay him as he was on his way to the
capital.
A mutiny which necessitated the
calling out of troops to quell it occurred
at the Carcel Models or penitentiary OF
Spain, yesterday. Nearly 5000 pris-
oners took part in the outbreak, which
was crushed only after three hours ef-
forts by the prison officials and the
military. The outbreak followed a
series OF severe measures put into ef-
feet by the director OF the prison,
Senor Navarro, when he found that,
contrary to the regulations, many OF
the prisoners were supplied with arms,
alcoholic drinks and anarchist litera-
ture. Discipline practically had ceased
to exist.
Severe penalties have been metcd out
to the ringleaders, and the minister OF
Justice has ordered an investigation OF
the affair.

THE FORTRESS MONROE HORROR.

The accident at Fort Monroe, Thurs
day, when the breech block OF Pinch
disappearing gun blew out, killing
eleven men, was due, in the opinion
of army ordnance experts, to the ac,
cidental pulling OF the firing lanyard
before the breech block was locked
securely and the failure of a safety
device to function properly.
Corporal John D. Humphries, q
member OF the gun crew OF the Sixty
ninth Company, Coast Artillery, gives
a graphic story OF the explosion. No
man ever saw moro horrible sight, "
said the corporal. Il was rangekeeper
and was standing by with the telephone
to my ear receiving ranges. ! was not
paving attention to the men behind
the gun. The trumpet sounded and
the command was given to fire three
rounds. heard the chief Of the breach
say close. / heard the command in
battery, but not the order to trip the
lever
The gun was fired. saw the flash
and felt the heat. Then Rangesetter
Ford Summer. who was standing near
me, exclaimed, Great God, what has
happened?' looked and it seemed to
be that everything behind the gun
was swept away 1t was a sight that no
one could describe. | cannot now
comprehend it. 1t fairly paralyzed
my senses and gave me q shock from
which / shall never recover. Human
beings and the powder truck were
blown backward rs if they were so
much litter, and the truck and breech
were afterwards found III the creek,
500 yards away.
Il ran to the rescue OF the men
and saw the whole horrible spectacle.
There were detached limbs, hands,
feet and brains and pools of blood, and
the men who had not been torn
asunder were even more horrible to
behold. One man particularly ap-
pealcd to me. 1t was private Chad
wick, good fellow and q fine sol
dier. His eyes had been put out and
his clothing was on fire in many
