Lives Lost—Eleven Persons I
jured—Spectators Helpless to Save
the Unfortunates.
Avon, Conn., Sept. 16.—The explo
sion of a fuse, followed by a fire in a
building of the Climax Fuse company
here Friday afternoon caused a panic
among 20 employes in the building and
resulted in the death of seven and in
juries that doubtless will prove fatal
to several others. There was no way
of coping with the flames, which soon
fcpiead rapidly, and in less than an
hour after the explosion occurred those
who were unable to escape were in the
clutches ot a Are that eventually
burned their bodies to ashes. As the
day wore on the great crowd that col
lected in the hamlet saw the bodies of
men and women roasting in the fire
and were powerless to check the
flames.
The Victims.
The dead are William Burke, 40
years old, married, James Joyce, about
35, married Robert McCarthy, aged
IS James Wallace, married Molli6
McCarthy. Miss J. Sullivan, Mrs. M. B.
Tucker. Eleven persons were injured.
The exact cause of the accident
which caused the loss of seven lives
may never be known, but it is the ac
cepted theory here that in an effort to
burn out a stoppage in one of the ma
chines a workman caused an explo
sion of a fuse, with the hot iron he
held in his hand.
Inflammable material was set on fire
and in a few moments the room was a
mass of flames In an instant there
was a mad rush for the doors and win
dows, and during the scramble many
were pushed back into the building,
while others were severely burned.
The scene at the Are was heartrend
ing. Friends and relatives of the
missing were almost frantic with grief
when it became known that bodies of
those close to them were being burned
to a crisp in the ruins of the factory.
As there is no fire department in the
town it was utterly useless to cope
with the flames with buckets.
Jr"=" J'. TO iv
As one of the walls ot the second
largest building fell several bodies
could be seen entangled in the mass ot
machinery in the basement, and in a
short time they were reduced to ashes.
Early in the evening the body of a wo
man was seen near the edge of the fire
and an effort was made to pull it away
from the flames, but on account of the
great heat this was impossible
Soon after the building in which the
lives were lost was consumed the fire
spread to the new structure, which was
just completed at a cost of $35,000, and
in a tew hours this building was gut
ted, only the tour walls remaining
Two smaller buildings were reduced to
ashes making a total of four burned,
the loss on which is estimated to be
flOO.000
WARSHIP LOST.
Japanese Battleship, the Mikasa, To
tally Destroyed by Fire andExplo
sion—Loss of Life Heavy.
Tokio, Sept. 13.—The navy depart
ment Tuesday made the announcement
that the battleship Mikasa had been
destroyed by fire and the explosion of
her magazine, causing the loss of 599
lives, including men of other ships who
went to the rescue.
A later report says the casualties re
sulting from the loss of the Mikasa are
five killed, 251 missing and 343 wound
ed.
These figures, which total 599. indi
cate that at least 343 men were rescued
from the battleship, wounded, but still
alive, that five of the dead have been re
covered, and that 251 are missing. The
presumption is that the 251 missing men
either were killed by the explosion or
drowned when the ship went down.
Admiral Togo was not on board the
Mikasa when the disaster to the battle
ship occurred.
The fire started from an unknown
cause at midnight on Sunday night,
September 10. Before the officers could
be rescued, the fire reached the aft
magazine, which exploded, blowing a
hole in the port side of the vessel be
low the water line and causing the
ship to sink An investigation was im
mediately begun to determine the cause
of the fire.
The Mikasa was the flagship of the
Japanese navy, flying the flag of Vice
Admiral Togo, the commander-in-chief.
S he as present at all the principal
engagements during the war, and was
on several occasions reported seriously
damaged in action. At the battle of
the Sea of Japan she led the fleet into
action, and she was mentioned in con
nection with some of the most stir
ring events of the famous sea fight.

DEATH OF MAYOR
HON. PATRIC A. COLLINS DIES
I N HOT SPRINGS, VA., A E
I E ILLNESS.
W as a Noted Figure in National Dem
ocratic Politics—Served Six Years
in Congress and Wa Consul Gen
eral at London.
Boston, Sept. 15.—Patrick A. Collins,
major ot Boston, died Thursday at Hot
Springs, Va. The immediate cause of
his death was a hemorrhage of the
bowels. A telegram received by Mr.
Curran briefly reported the sudden de
mise of his chief.
Mayor Collins left here about a week
ago for Hot Springs to obtain a greatly
needed rest. He was accompanied by
his eldest son, Paul Collins. He had
complained more or less of being ill
and had kept to his room for the last
three days, but had not been confined
to his bed entirely. He was sitting up
talking with his son Thursday morn
ing when seized with the attack, death
occurring at nine o'clock.
Wa a Leading Democrat.
Mayor Collins was one of the leading
democrats of the country. He served
congress from 1883 to 1889, and was
United States consul general at Lon
don from 1893 to 1897. He was tne
presiding officer of the national demo
cratic convention of 1888. For many
years Mayor Collins devoted much
time in behalf of the cause of home
rule for Ireland, and he was the first
national president of the Irish Land
League in this country.
Citizens Shocked.
The news of the sudden death of
their mayor came as a tremendous
shocK to the citizens of Boston. May
or Collins was regarded here as one of
the last members of the so-called
"old school" in national life. The gen
eral respect in which he was held as a
national figure was enhanced by the
affection in which he was held by the
people of Boston.

ment that from now until he returns to
Washington on the 30th instant he will
receive no callers except those who may
come on urgen official business. He
has been deeply engrossed thus far dur
ing his sojourn at Sagamore Hill in af
fairs of the highest importance, and has

parative quiet.

A DOZEN KILLED.
Elevated Train in New York City
Track and Falls to Street
—Twelve Lives Lost.
New York, Sept. 12.—Twelve per
sons were killed and more than 20
injured when the second car of a
Ninth avenue elevated train jumped
the track and tell from the structure
to the street at the junction of the
Sixth and Ninth avenue lines at
Fifty-third street and Ninth avenue
Monday. The accident, the worst in
the history of the overhead railroads
in New York, came when a south
bound train on the North avenue line
was switched off to the Sixth avenue
line at tne Fifty-third street junction.
The motorman, expecting a clear
track on the direct line of Ninth ave
nue, or disregarding the warning sig
nal that the switch was open, rushed
his train along at a high rate of speed.
The first car swung around to right
angle curve, holding to the rails be
cause of the weight of the train be
hind. Then the strain became too
great. The couplings broke, the sec
ond car was whirled about almost
end ior end.
Suddenly the outer guard rail of
the railroad structure gave way, a
score of bodies were hurled through
space, and with a deafening crash the
car fell to the street. For an instant
it stood fairly on end Then the sides
gave way as if they were made of
pasteboard belching out a mass of
humanity. Those passengers who had
not jumped from platforms and win
dows before the plunge came, were
thrown into a mass at the forward
end of the car. As the injured men
and women were struggling to free
themselves, the heavy front trucks of
the third car on the train fell almost
in their midst as the car itself jumped
partly off the elevated structure and
was wedged against a building at
the southeast corner of Ninth avenue
and Fifty-third street.
TO GREET PRESIDENT.
Citizens of Washingto Arrang Pop
ular Reception to Mr.
Roosevelt.
Washington, Sept 14 —A movement
is on foot to give President Roosevelt a
cordial popular reception on his return
to Washington September 30 from his
summer home at Oyster Bay. It is in
tended that the demonstration shall be
entirely ot an informal character, with
out parade or speechmaking only an
assembling of citizens of Washington
on Pennsylvania avenue to greet the
president as he rides from the railroad
station to the white house It was orig
inally proposed that the reception
should be more formal, and in recogni
tion of the president's services in bring
ing the Portsmouth peace conference
to a successful termination, but the
simpler plan is believed to be more
nearly in accord with the wishes of the
president
