Terrible Less or Life nod Property Near Levetand, Ohie-Thirty Vic tims la the Hntns. A terrible disaster occurred Tuesday afternoon at King's powder mills, ten miles from Levelaud, O., where an explo sion took place, demolishing both the car tridge and powder mills, a leaded freight train and a dozen werkiugmen's houses, and killing from fifteen te thirty persona. The freight train was leading powder and 1,000 kegs had been placed in two cars. The engineer had just pulled the throttle te start when the explosion came, and in an instant death and ruin were en every slde. The explosion la supposed te have started In the cars, but the concussion set en the cartridge factory and the pewder milts simultaneously. The King powder company and the Peters cartridge works have works en both sides of the river along the railroad. The explosion occurred en the south side and the destruction was enormous. There are a number or cottages occupied by werkmen In the powder factory and situated close te the track. These were shattered by the explosion aud their Inmates injured. Twolve or lirtoen girls at work in the carriage factory were crippled by Iho ex - ftlosien. The railway station or the height iouse belonging te the Little Miami rail road, tegether with all the adlaecHi build ings, were set eti fire and totally consumed. The havoc wrought by the explosion or the slxtcen tens of pewder Is dreadful. The track and tles of the railroad are fairly tern out of the ground and a grout hele plowed in the ground.

They were all terribly mutilated, and in most cases only a fragment of the body remained. The common tropert is that the death list will reach thirty-live, and mero than a scere of wounded have been taken out. Some were limbless; olhers had great holes in their bodies; ethers were full of broken benes. Thore were about 125 poeplo residing about the works and forty persons wero employed In the twos milts. A number of spectators were at the depet. Among the known killed are four trainmen. Scarcely a trace of them can be found. Petcrs' cartridge factory was a large building and fully supplied with a great amount of costly machinery, both for the manufacture of shelU and the leading of shetguu ammunition, and a large ferce of ompleyos was at work at the tlme that the ex plosien occurred. As seen as the news reached Cincinnati a relief train was dispatched te the scotie of the disaster, with Superintendent Peters and a large party of surgeons en beard, and relief was afforded the sufferers as seen as possible FOUItTKEN VICTIMN.

WE8TEM SEMTIRS AGRBB WITH BLINK'S UKW 8P TIB TARIFF MEASURE. They Are ChucklniH: Over the Secretary's Letter te Frye Hints or Impending Modifications of the Heuso Dill. Washington Dispatch te New Yerk Herald. Wheu the lleruUl announced a few weeks age that Secretary Blaine was se dissatisfied with the McKinley lailff bill that he referred te It in the room oflhe Senate committee en appropriations as a dangerous measure, and added In enually strong terms that he would, if a member or the Heuse, have opimsed Its passage, it stated a fact that has since been abund antly corroborated. The communication from Blaine urging the necessity for reciprocal relations with Spain whorehy our breadstuff may find a market in Cuba aud Perte It loe in return for the froe Importation of sugar from theso colonies, which was published this morn ing, contains thee words : " I de net doubt that In maiiv resnects the tariff 1)111 pending in the Senate is it just measure and that most or Its previsions are in accordance with the wise olle,v of pro tection But there is net n soctlen or a line In the entire bill that will open the maiket for another bushel of wheal or another barrel of iierk. If sugar Is new placed en the free list without 'exacting important trode concessions In return we shall clese the deer Ter a profitable reciprocity against ourselvos." The Weslern Deflators, who nre no mero In sympathy with the measure as a whele than Mr. Blaine IS, did a geed deal of quiet chuckling te-day wheu they read the fore going paragraph, aud the expression " Damned with faint praise " was ene fre quently heard among them when reror rerer reror ence te the letter was inade. The Wostern senators are, as Senater Mandersen laconi cally puts It, " protectionists, but net pro hibitionists." They say that the Republi can party Is accused of maintaining a war tariff upon the necessaries of lffe a quarter efa century after the occasion which re quired nn incroase in duties has passed away. In the last campaign, they add, they premised their people that if restored te IHiwer they would preperly rovlse existing duties. They said in offect that reductions should be made whero it was oxpediont te de no, and uuder no circumstances was it ex poet ed that Increases should be allowed. The McKinley bill, as they can easily dem onstrate, gives the lle te these premises by creating additions all along (he line and making practically no decreases whatever. Secrelary Blaine. they Insist, is squarely in harmony with thorn upon this question, and If ever they doubted it the proof Is fur nished te them in Senater Frye's letter. Tholettor, by the way, was roeoivod by Sonater Frye only Tuesday evening. He tells me it was written presumably boeause of certain objections made by him le the reciprocity nmeiidmcut oflerod by Mr. Hale sdine weeks age le the tariff bill. He Immediately wrete back te Mr. Blaine asking him what assurances he had from Spain that that country would -consent te reciprocity and he further asked If he (Mr. Blaine) would be satislied, as his loiter in dicated, te sell them only breadstuffs? If this wero se, Sonater Frye queried, what position would the Latin-American repub lics take in the matter, the mero especially since we ask them te roceivo rrem us a long list or articles, eighty-seven in all, coverlng a wlde range of productions, whlle from Spain we ask only ihe Importa tion of oue class or experts. Senater Frye tells me he does net beliove Spain will agree te Mr. Blalne's proiioNl preiioNl proiieNl tlou. Slie finds iu Cuba and Perte It Ice an excoilent and oxclusive market for her cereals, and slie will, In the senutt r's opinion, be leth te relinquish it, although, of ceurse, the colenics would be delighted with the proposed. nrraiigomeuL Senater Frye thinks it is new tee late in the session te entei Inte reciprocal relations with any of the countries south of us, although he dees net wish tills slatoment te be con strued us opposition en his part te such a plan. Iu bis judgment the belter manner of dealing with sugar Is te redtice the ex isting duty te ene cent u pound and de away entirely with the idea of a bounty. He had been assured by n prominent Louisiana sugar planter thai in view of the improved machinery new iu use a cent a pound is nmple protection le the American grewer, and that the only persons who would take issue with him upon this pro pre position are the small planters who cannot ullbrd modern machinery. It is probahte that Mr.Frye will, when Iho tariff bill guts before the Senute, move the adoption of an amendment te the sugar iichodule te the foregoing effect. It is known that seme of the Western llepublicau senators who are net iu leve with the McKiuley bill would like te see it materially modified, but they regard it as being se radical iu its prohibitory features as te be incapable of amendment oxcent by absolute reconstruction, and they would prefer te see it fall entirely than bocemo a law. Notwithstanding this they cannot afford te openly oppose the passage of the measure, and their only resource is te tone it down as much as sslble and eliminate theso features which will practically bring foreign trade te a standstill. Thore Is no doubt but seme very radical changes will be made. It is imdersloed that Senators Allisen, .Plumb' and ethers have been communicating with their con stituents en the subject and that the replies they receive overwholuilngly sustain the position they nre about te lake. Theso re plies show that the Western ioepto from the agricultural states regard the bill ns ultra aggressive aud extreme, and It will take a great deal of modifying te piano it down te the level of Westeru sentiment. As stated in these dispatches yesterday seme sharp debates and clese votes may be expected wheu the vai ions schedules are up for consideration iu the Senate. - - Dannitfn te the Carpenter Property.
