i Boston Block Destroyed Hy Fire.
BOSTON. Aug. lit.—The explosion of
a tank of gasoline in the basement of
j a six story block occupied by several
[manufacturing concerns on Worm
1 wood street. South Boston, caused a
tire which inside of fifty minutes de
stroyed every combustible foot of the
building, meantime precipitating a
panic, in which scores of employees
received injuries. The monetary loss is
$150,000. Immediately following the
explosion a dense volume of smoke en
veloped flic building, and 25(1 girls em
ployed by William Byers, manufactur
er of lace curtains, on the sixth floor,
stampeded for the stairways, the only
exits, and. screaming and fighting,
made their way to the ground. In the
struggle many fell and were trampled
upon. It was at lirst believed that
loss of life bad resulted, but a search
of the ruins lias not revealed any evi
dence of fatalities.
< nlrli I’owprn* Trial.
GEORGETOWN. Ivy.. Aug. 19.—The
direct and cross examinations of Caleb
Powers, on the stand in his own de
fense. has been concluded and devel
oped little that was new. He adhered
closely to his story told on direct ex
amination. He admitted bringing sev
eral companies of soldiers in citizens'
clothes to Frankfort, but said lie bad
beforehand had an understanding with
Governor Taylor that if the legislature
did not heed the petitioners he would
then call the militia into service, and
lie (1‘owewi wanted to have the niili
lia on hand. Maelvenzie Todd of I rank
fort, private secretary to Governor Tay
lor, testified to seeing Yoiltsey about
the executive denartment and the pri
vale office of ( 'aleb Powers a few flays
before the shooting armed with a gun
and looking at the windows. Former
United States Senator \V. .1. Deboe is
here to testify for the defense.
Swain Whirlpool Kiipi,l* anil l.ivpx.
HUFFALO. Aug. lb. Although there
are many men at Niagara Falls who
assert that ".lack'’ Glenister did not
swim through the whirlpool rapids,
as reported, because no living being
could go through that channel and sur
vive, there are hundreds of others who
are firm in the belief that the feat
was accomplished. Those who accept
as final the stalenient of the swimmer
and his friends say the plunge was
made near the iiintalever bridge and
that the man was whirled through the
t'apids and down tho mad river to a
point immediately below the Devil's
hole.

Fine Breeze* For Cup Itnoe.
MOW YORK. Oct. HI. A storm cen
ter in northern Ontario was reported
as moving east and causing considera
ble disturbances, which are likely to
be reflected in the winds over the
course to be sailed by the yachts Reli
ance and Shamrock III. From present
meteorological indications it may be
quite safely inferred that the racing
yachts will have some winds sufficient
to enable them to cover the prescribed
course within the time limit, but them
is no reason to suppose that they will
have anything approaching a gale.
