THE BOILER EXPLOSION
Further Particulars of the Terrible
Disaster The Families of the
Killed-A Loss of $40,000
Sustained, Etc. Etc.
The torriblo disaster of Thursday afternoon,
by which nearly two dozen hard-working men
mflered a terilble death, Is still the all engross
lnu topic of conversation. The fooling of grief
throughout the community Is uulversal, and
all the more so from the fact that the families
of many of the killed are left In a dostltute
condition.
TUB RtriNJtD MILL
was ereoted early in the year 1801, from the
plans of Mr. J' hn McA.rthur.Jr., by Mr. Uharles
Goehnian, to whose t-slale the property still
belongs. It was constructed In a substantial
manner, the interior arrangements being fully
strong enough to support the heavy machinery
used in the business. Mr. Goehmau carried ou
the work of turning, planing, and sawing fancy
scrolls lor cabinet-junkers, until the time of his
death, nbout one year ago. For a short time
after thut the business was conducted as before,
In the nuine ol bis widow; but in February last
a five yeurs' lease whs given to Messrs. Geasey
A Ward, the former of whom had formerly car
ried ou a similar business at Twenty-third and
Cbesnut streets.
The boilers and machinery were constructed
by Messrs. Morgan A Orr. There were two of
the former, known as return flue boilers, cost
ing 8.S0D, and they are said to have been fully
tested before being places in position. Heveiai
valuubie additions wore m.tde to the machi
nery by them, thus materially incroHSing the
loss. As stated lu Thh Avkning Trlbquavii
of jei-terday aiternoou, the loss sustained by
this firm amounts to about J 111,000, while the
Bcfaoinxcker tiauo Forte Company lose about
910.0. The building cost tlU.oa) when erected
In 1801, and owing to the rise In tne
value ol real estate, was probably worth about
424,000 at the time of its destruction. This would
make the tolal loss amount to $41,000, exolusive
of that sustained by Messrs. Miller, Reader A
Co., which cannot now be estimated. The
property belonging to the estate of Mr.
tioehman was quite heavily insured, there
being 83000 on the stock, $6000 on the building,
and 81000 on the office, in the Fire Association,
, and S&U00 in the Koyal, of Liverpool, on the
boiiers, shafting, etc. But as tne whole estab
llshmentand all its con tents were laid lu worth

wiade npon the Insurance companies. The lire

THE WOliK IN TUB RUIJ99
was continued throughout yesterday, and did
not cease uutll about 0 o'clock in the evening.
The two men who ventured upon the shaking
Wall, for thepurposeof adjusting the ropes to
the chimney, when the latter was overturned,
as already described in Tub Kvjcninq Tkl.ii
orapjb, were members of the Washington Hose
Company, and were named John Currlgan and
James Hockler. The task was both ditlloult
and dangerous, but the work of removing the
bodies of the killed from the ruins could
not be prosecuted while the chimney re
mained standlug, and ready to fail at any
moment. Great credit is, therefore, due to these
tnen for their fearlevs venluro. indeed, the
flieuien have labored from first to last, in this
distressing affair, in a manner that untitles
them to the gratitude of the entire public. But
there are nniong our fireman a few characters
Who are a disgrace to their fraternity, as well as
a pest to the community. One of tueso was ar
retted for robbing a corpse of an empty pocket
book, while anotuer escaped with a gold watch,
taken lrom the same body.
About 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon the over
worked and exhausted Bremen were relieved
by a number of voluuteer cabinet-makers,
whose exertions were soon rewarded by the dis
covery of the remains of Mr. George W. Geasey
and Bainuel l)..rgu. .Neither of them bad been
reached by the tire, but both were horribly
crushed by the falling timbers, and must have
suffered au Instant death. Both the bodies were
found In a sitting posture, In the southwestern
corner or tne ruined mulcting, me ueau ox Mr.
Ueasev resting on his left arm.

THRSCKNH OF THE F.X PLOSION TIII8 MORNINO.
Notwithstanding the drizzling rain which
continued throughout this morning, crowds
si 11 1 gatheied aud lingered about the plaoe,
while their excitement manifested no abate
ment. A more dismal picture could riot be
imagined than thut presented to all observers.
About half after 8 o'clock willing hands set to
work cleai ingaway the rubbish, aud labored
steadily through the drenching rain ln search
of ft lends and relatives. Now and then a burnt
shoe, bat, or tattered piece of cloth, brought to
light by the excavation ln the debris, would be
carefully examined by sorrowing friends, as a
Ohio to the whereabouts of the missing. Fathers
and brothers were there, who gathered around
the scene of desolation, living lu that awful sus-
fiensewhen a taint ray of hope almost forces
tself npon inevitable truth, that the missing
could not have perished.
A volunteer force of fifty men was offered to
those in charge of removing the rubbish, to
relieve the firemen and others who had labored
so tnergettcally since the catastrophe, it Is
known that three bodies lie at the base of the
chimney, and are covered up by a large pile of
bricks and timber.
Thb Littlb Orphan Poor How Thhy Livk.
But few comparatively, engrossed with the
cares and duties of life, have so ireely a thouubt
for the atoms of humanity which drill along in
such a vast metropolis as this. None there are
who care for them, not one to guide or direct
them in the proper paths of life. Imagination
scarcely exaggerates the picture, words fall to
express the reality of the listless rovings, the
loneliness, the pinchlngsof hunger and want of
poor little outcast orphans. And of such there
are many, coming from the lower classes, who
care little or nothing at all for the little ones
suddenly bereft of parents. Charity cannot
always extend its benevolent hand, public
officials often fall to point them out, and the
negligence of those who once were neighbors
leaves the little orphan ones to ramble alone,
nn cared for. unknown, through the thorough
fares, to gain a livelihood as best they cuu.
Whai, a life is theirs I Their only home the
streets. Their sustenance wnat little they can
earn, and olten steal, or what they beg from
door to door. Their meagre clothiug, the cast-oil'
garments of others, for summer too hot, and lor
winter utterly incapable of keeping out the
chilly blasts and penolratiug cold. Coverings
lor their beads are eo varied as to defy enume
ration, but all answering to the geueral title
of "ventilation gossamers," Their scanty ward
robe is ever with them, and a tattered hand
kerchief would be an easy substitute for a
trunk, wherein to place their little all. At ail
times i lie friendless orphans are the last to
leave the thoroughfares which have been
thronged all day by the ceaseless, hurrying
streams of humanity. Could you watch tueiu
as one by one they dart down gloomy alleys, up
dark streets, aud Into mora dismal courts, their
sleeping plates would be brought to llzht even
ainiu the darkness.
What a story could some old and rickety
stair wt-y tell, if its battered and weather
siainid boards had but the power of utterance,
of the Utile, lonely, ruei urchlu who sought
Its protection at the hour of midnight, and cud
dled b-ne till Us tottering form, to son himself
to sleep, while the wind whistled through tue
chinks, making ttie old stairway creak aud

of eld buildings, with which time and wear bad
maue sad navoo, anu lor years nau Known no
tenants save rats and roaches; of damp cellars,
marble steps, ana mniuer yarus, as nightly re
sorts. But a lew hours would they be tenanted.
Belor the dawn of day, these little editions of
the "A'andering Jew," done up ln rags, would
rouse themselves, periorm tneir ablutions nt,
the nearest Dumn. aud then commence their
reeular dismal tramp up and down tue streets.
Their modes or life are as varied as fancy's
whims can make them, but ever kept within
the bounds which poverty makes for all. Their
vocations are many. They compose au array of
bootblacks, while in no less number they are
the squads of newsboys who are dally met
about the streets. Borne choose the harder life
of beggary, which is but poorly rewarded for
the many petitions that longing looks, plached
faces, and battered forms can make. A large
number, helped onward by rude speeches aud
rougn usage, nave aireauy, oy petty actions,
crossed the threshold of the criminal world.
In the day time they pass on every hand, at
niuht they stand upon the steps of our theatres
eegerly watching to catch a glimpse of the
Imaginary world within. Or by the aid of the
bard-earned quarter they gain the upper circle,
only to feel more snarpiy tue contrast oi tne
two extremes of poverty above and wealth
below. A hard life is theirs 1 One full of tempta
tion and sad destitution. Many have been
gathered Into the homes which the charitable
have endowed. But their number is but a mi
nority of the great army of orphans to be found
scattered throughout this great metropolis.
The Homes lor mese wanuerers are nuea.
Their managers have done, are doing a noble
work, but their willing bands are cramped by
the lack of support. Let not the progress of
one of the grandest of objects be hampered by
want of mean s. but let our kind-hearted cl ti
re us come to its rescue, ln order that these little
orphans may be brought under wholesome
keeping, where they can be educated aud ele
vated, so that they may make good and upright
citizens of the community.

In Vibw of thb Recent Terrible Acci
bkkt that has sent a thrill of horror through
our entire community, we are naturally led to
wonder that men take so little precaution to
guard tbeir lives from such risks. It is the
evident duty of every man to insure his life
auainst such casualties, and yet, though there
are on an average ten accidents to one tire, yet
men take ten times more care to Insure their
houses than their bodies and limbs against
ininrv and mutilation. A word to the wise
should be sulllclenl. There are two or three

Shooting at thk Czar of Russia. Procla
mation from Napoleon III. Tuileriks, June 7.
Whereas, to-day, while tho Canr of the Uusslas
and myself were returning from the review in
the Champ de Mars, a pistol shot was fired Into
my carriage at the Czar, and came very near
bitting me. This is to notify tbe people of
France that, If they value the life of their Em
peror, they must not shoot at bis frleuds while
they are ln his company, especially In so close
7 roximlty to tbe person of the Emperor of the
French as to be sitting on the same carriage
seat with blm, as mast unpleasant conse
quences might ensue from an imperfect aim.
As much confidence as tho Emperor has ln the
military skill of the French people in general,
and the soldiers iu particular, yet an indis
criminate firing of pistols ln the direction of the
Emperor will not be allowed. The Emperor
hereafter will not be accompanied by the Czar.
The Czar's suit, or one similar to it, was on sale
last winter at Charles Stokes ic Co.'s Clothing
Store, under the Continental. . Now their
counters are filled with Summer Clothing.

otllce of the Sheriff, m tho county J.ill. Tbe
i prisoner was attended by his counsel, William
I. I lad ley. When brought from the apartment
be occupies in tbe Jail into the presence of tho
magistrate be was accompanied by a friend,
who, it was said, was au old avqualutauce, whj
bad known him In California.
Ills manner was cool and collected, but there
was a nervous twitching of the lip and a res t
lesBuess iu the eye wblcb bespoke a mlmltlluc
ease, and a strauger might ut once have readily
fixed upon him as the principal In this uu
buppy uftuir. During the examination wnlcn
ensued he appeared to be at times overcome
with drowsiness, aud closed his eyes and nodded
his bead as if overcome by sleep. There wa
also observable a nervous twitching of his
under lip and fingers, as uu Indication that he
felt seriously the critical position, ln whton lie
was placed. There were present only the "Ul
cers of the jail, the prisoner and his counsel,
the magistrate, tbe prosecuting attorney, und
members of the press.
Dr. James II. Arrasby was tbe first witness sworn
I am u practising physician and surgeon ln tula city;
examined, the peisou of Mr. Hlsoock ou tbe evening of
June 4, at btimw lx Hail; It wat near S o'clock past
that hour; be was lying on his back, with his head
towards the door by which I entered; It was In a bud
room up stairs, In the east wing of the hulUhug: there
was a crowd of people iu tho ioou), and two or three
other physicians; I noticed i)rs. Havens aud Stevens
and one or two medical students; tuere was a wound
under the rlgbteye: I passed aprobe nearly the length
oi it lnlo the wound; the direction was slightly up
ward and Inward, crushinir throusrh the bones of toe
race aud the base of the skull, nearly iu tiie direction of
thespinul marrow, where It unites with the brain;
Hi ball must have lodged In the back part of the
brain: the probe moved trecly lu a lateral direction.
and I could touch several fragments ol bone; there
was quite aspace made by the ball and the fragments
ol bone that had been carried before It; I did not touch
thebali; tbe ball most likly gluiieed upward, and may
have been some distance from tbe end of the probe:
he was dead at this time: I placed my band over tbe
heart; tbere was no pulsatlou; the wound was un
doubtedly tbe cause of his death; the wound could
have been made by a pistol bull.
The examination ot this witness being closed. Mr,
Hartley, the prisoner's counsel, said he bad no ques

Tbe Assistant District Attorney announced that this
closed the examination on the part of tbe people.

SOMK FACTS ABOUT THE PARTI BS.
Mrs. Cole, the wife of tbe prisoner, and one ef
the principal parties iu the tragic eveut, is a
daughter of Judge Barlo, of Truraansburg,
Tompkins county, and a half sister of Henry D.
rtarto, a prominent uemocrauo politician, a
member of tbe Democratic Ht ite Central Com
mittee for a number of years, and of the present
Htate Constitutional Convention. Mrs. Cole
bad a large property, held ln ber own name,
and is reported to bold a half interest la the
Henry D. Barto A Co.'s bank, of Truruansburg.k
TUB TONE OF THB ALBANY PRESS.
The tone of the Albany press in referenoe to
the illscock tragedy is much deprecated by all
disinterested persons. There is an evident
attempt on the part of some of the Journals
here to excite a prejudice against the prisoner.
This is altogether wrong, no matter how unjus
liable bis act may have been, aud it is likely to
react ln favor of General Cole. It may in the
end elicit from the friends of the prisoner an
assault upon the antecedents of his victim, aud
Involve some outside parties lu the unpleasant
ness of newspaper discussion. Tbe letters .and
photographs taken from the body of the de
ceased, and handed to bis relatives, may yet
bear an Important part ln tbe investigatien.

Fire in llrooklyn.
Bkooklyn, June 8. Between i and 5 o'clock
tills morning. Officer Watson, while patrolling

of Mr. Peter Lyman, corner of Clinton and
Flushing avenues. There were ten horses ln
the stables, valued at $2000 eacb. Six of them
were rescued. The flames spread to the ad
joining dwelling bouse of Mr. Patrick Dough
erty, whotustained a loss or 83000; then to the
whisky distillery of Brennan A Madden, which
was damaged to the building and s ock 812,000,
and no insurance. The fire also communicated
to the sheds and stables of Mr. Henry liar lean,
dealer iu building materials; loss 818.000; insured
ln the Phamix Company for 84500. The lumber
yard of Conkllng, Son A Beers wat also

Fonr valuable horses belonging-to the firm
were burned to death. It was discovered that,
tbe safe ln the office of Mr. Hartenn had been

probable, therefore, that tbe fire was the work:
of burglars.
