EXPLOSION WRECKS
LAUNDRY BUILDING IN PUEBLO

Causes Great Excitement.
The force of the explosion was such
that windows were shattered in a terri

doWs In the Globe Express company's
Office, across the alley crashed to the
street and it was supposed at first that
the safe in that cOmpany's office had
great excitement, as, owing to the kill
ing Of a "black hand leader here the
night before, it was believed that the
gang was taking revenge for the murder
of their leader The police, however,
are of the opinion that the black hand
had no connection with the affair.
Is Non Union Laundry.
The steel tank which was the supposed
object of the attack, was erected by the
Kennicott Water SOftener company Of
Chicago Heights, III.
The laundry was operated on non
union basis, but it is not believed that
this has had any connection with the eX-
plosiOn-
1t developed today, however, that an
attempt had been made to wreck the
laundry a year ago, when the gas IN an
upper story was turned on mysterlOusly,
undoubtedly with the hope that spark
or a light might cause an explosion.
Prompt discovery prevented a disaster.
The sheriffs Office is said to have a
clew which points to one man as being
responsible Tor the outrage. Reports

Only Minor Matters Are Attracting

During This Week.

Faustina Hellenthall has been grant
ed a divorce from her husband in the
district court, Harry Hellenthall and
was awarded custody of their minor
child, Bernice. The case went by de-
fault as have the majority of the long
list of cases that have been up within
the last few months. No alimony Is
asked in most of them as the hus-
bands are generally poor men and
have moved to places unknown.
The plea of petit larceny entered
by Albert Kurtz was accepted and he
was given thirty days in jail Kurtz
was indicted for grand larceny by the
grand jury.
The case of T. D. Slater against A.
T. & s. F. Ry Co., for the loss of a
COW hit by Santa Fe train has been
settled and dismissed. The amount OF
damages asked was only So.
The grand jury has not yet report
upon the Lochhead case and will prob
ably not report until final report
can be made, which will be in two or
three days. The three most import
ant cases considered are those OF
John Lochhead, Clyde Richardson and
