WANTED CONNECTICUT A SENATORS CONDEMNED. House Resolution to Rebuke Them for
 Vote in Lorimer Case.

Hartford, March 9.-A lively discus sion was precipitated in the house today by the endeavor of democratic members to secure action on a reso- lution condemning the vote of Sena- tors Bulkeley and Brandegee in sus- taln1ng Senator Lorimer of Illinois. Republican Members Fight Resolution. The republican members, irrespective or the. recent party division in refer ence to Senators Bulkeley and Mclean ralhed unanimously against the reSolu- tion. They first endeavored to prevent It's being read and it was in the effort to have it ruled out without reading that the most interesting remarks were made.
 Murphy of Danbury Offered 1t.
 The resolution was offered by Rep. resentative Murphy of Danbury. MT. Banks immediately headed off reading by tho claim of new business"
 Speaker Scott so ruled and said the matter could not be considered save by two-thtrds vote.

 Representative Thoms in answer de- clared that his side of the house did not have any monopoly in the matter of fool resolutions"
 The republican side of the house had a few to its credit. He would cite the resolution passed g. few days prior and which had It's origin on the republican side that allowed the state to venture an expenditure of $20,o00 for an inves- tigation such as tho state of Massachu- setts had held and which had produced nothing.
 The speaker finally declared the res- elution out of order.

PROPERTY LOSS OF $1,5ooooo Al
 PLEASANT PRAIRIE, WIS.
DYNAMITE CARS BLEW UP
Varying Reports as to Number es Dead-concussion shattsrs Win dows in Chicago 60 Miles Away.

Chicago, March 9-An explosion that
 wrecked the plant of tho Dupont-Ne-
 mours Powder Co. in Pleasant Prairie,
 Wis, village of about 150 fnhabit-
 ants, tonight caused the loss of at
 least one life, destroyed the town in
 which it was situated and created
 vibration that was felt for a radius of
 fifty miles. The property loss is esti
 mated at $1,500,O00.
 Chicago Thoroughly Shaken Up.
 Chicago was shaken from it's most
 western suburbs to the shore of Lake
 Erie and from north end to south end.
 Belief that an earthquake had been
 experienced was almost universal for
 a time. Windows were shattered and
 houses shaken throughout the thirty
 miles of Chicago's length. Concussion Feit for Over 60 Miles. Although Pleasant Prairie is six
 miles west of Kenosha, which is sixty
 miles due north from Chicago. the concussion was heard and the v1bra-
 tions were felt not only in all parts of the city, but at Indiana Harbor and other points twenty miles south and southwest of here. Two shocks were felt, one extremely severe at S.2o o'clock, and a slighter one three min utes later
 Chicago Windows Shattered. The suburbs of Chicago along the Lake shore all felt the quaking and to the north of Chicago many windows . and store fronts were shattered. Direct communication with Pleasant Prairie was cut off by the explosion and no particulars were available from there by wire.
 Only Seventeen at Work in Plant. It is known, however, that the town was almost demolished. There were alarming reports that the number of deaths was large, but later it was re- ported from Kendsha that only seven teen men were at work in the plant at the time of the explosion and twelve of them had been accounted for. Relief Trains Sent from Chicago. Racine received intelligence that the number of dead would run as high as forty, but this could not be deter mined with accuracy. It is known, however, that the number of injured is large and relief trains were at once sent from Chicago and Kenosha. Nearly Every House Damaged. Three carloads of dynamite exploded. It will be impossible for many hours to tell accurately the number of the dead.
 which contains 700 residents, has been badly dama ged, and some of them have been utterly demolished. Reports from the country ten mlee distant are to the effect that houses even that far from the explosion were | thrown down.
 Only One Known to Be Killed. It is believed inevitable that many people have been killed or injured throughout the surrounding country 1 So far as known at present, however, | but one man, E. s. Thompson, fore man of the Glaze mill, was killed out right. Charles Brady, superintendent, and Joseph Flint, the engineer, are badly injured and may die.
