The Somerset Chemical Works, an estab-
liahmem for the manafacture of oitro-glyc-
erine, and all grades of high espUwives, was
the scene of a most frightful accident at
o'clock last Wednesday afternoon. The
Chemical Works were bnilt daring the past
summer by two young men from New York,
Edwin E. Wolf and W. T. Beach, and are
located on the fanu of Mr. John Lane, at a
point about one and one-half miles east of
Somerset. Since they have been in opera
tion thy hare been doing an immense bus
iness, having orders fax ahead lor ail the ej-1
Lfffosie ther could turn oat. Their princJ,
P' manofactare is dynamite, large qoanti-
S. P. Railroad, although the greater portion
of their product is sent to points at a dis
tance. The acids used are brought here b
the car load, iu metal tan ks. and are unload
ed at Keiater's suiting, which is the ship
ping point for the factory, and from thence
taken to the works by team. They make
their own cartridges, caps, fuse, boxes, etc,
for shipping purposes. About one dosen
hands ar employed in toe didtireut depart
ments, and there are eight or ten separate
building used. Last Wednesday Mr. Beach
wan in New York and Mr. Wotf was in Som
c:et making arrangements with the rail
road agent to ship a large quantity of dyna
mite that afternoon. Five of the emj'loyes,
James UowletL. Hugh Eav, Henry Turner,
Suott tx-baefler and 1. C. Schaetfer were at
work ia the packing house, where there was
? VW pounds of a powerful grade of dyna
nitr ready for packing. Inim diately out
side o( the building was five hundred
po-jnd, biied and ready for shipment.
The men had finished their dinner and com
menced work for the afternoon, when Scotl
Scharoer heated a poker reii-hot for the pur
pose of boring a hole through the door. Iu
earning the poker back to the stove a spark
fell from it into a large tub of dyuamite. and
in an la-Unt the entire Dunning was in
Sa"ies.
V. C Sohaeler was standing near the door
and escaped from the building uninjured.
The clothes of the other men caught fire
and as tbey rusbe i from the burning build
ing they were completely enveloped In
rlame. Knowing that a fearful explosion
was soon to follow, the men rushed frantic
ally through the woods, the clothes barn"
ingon their bodies, and fanned by the wind
nnti thry verT perfect sheets of Came.
The
men had gotten about fifty rods from the
building when there was a terrific detona
tion and the packing house with its contents
and the 10 pounds of cartridges on the out
side were scattered to thsfour winds. The
dynamite inside of the building had ex
ploded and with such force as to break win
dow in houses a mile away and to shake
others six andight miles away as by an
earthquake. Two of the men. Ray and
Howiet ran in the direction of Lane's house,
about a half mile away and when they
had covered about half the distance they
were met by two of Mr. Lane's sons who
tore their b-iming clothes from their bodies
when they ran across the snow covered
fields to the honse stark naked. They were
both badly burned ou chest, back and legs,
but were not seriously injured. Turner was
found in the woods by the HeeaU) local,
who was on the gmanils within fifteen min
utes after the explosion, in a most pitiful
condition. He was entirely devoid of cloth
ing, it having been burned and torn from
him. and was lying in the snow the most
horrible and pitiful looking otject we have
ever been called to look upon. Every ves
tige of hair was singed from his bead and
face and the flesh hune from his lees and
body in strips so horribly was it bnrned.
Although sutlering untold anguish he was
perfectly rationaL When told that the
Doctor would be :u re in a few minutes he
seemed to think that it would be of no use,
that be was d ne to the death. A stretcher
was improvised as quickly as possible and
the poor man was carried to his home, a
half mile away, where a few short honrs be
fore, strong and well be had left his wife
and three small children. Dr. Kimmell
reached the bouse simultaneously with the
injured man and did everything that a
kind heart and medical skill cnald suggest
to relieve the intense suffering of his wretch
ed fellow man. Medical skill was of no
avail and at six o'clock Henry Turner's suf
ferings ceased and his spirit returned to
Him who gave it. Scott Schaeffer was
found sitting on a fence in a field sixty
yards from the place of the explosion, en
tirely naked, with his flesh burned a!m
tn a crisp ; his hair all gone, his face charr
ed and blackened nr.tU h bad lost all sem
blance ft humanity. Thnee who 6nnd
hira at once fcx-.k off their CTats and placed j
them ipwnd him and as soon as blankets to j
wrap him in could be secured he was placed
in a bnggv and taken to his father's bouse,
the old Rudolph Ferner place, ahoct one
and a half miles distant, where be died that
night Dr F.nibaker attended him and did
all that it was pnosible to do to ameliorate

hundreds were running in the direction of

The shock from the explosion was so
greut in Somerset that windows were shaken,
doors jarred oyen, stoves overturned, and in
unit instances people ran out of their hous
es, thinking that the walls were fallin; in.
Mr. Charles E. Pile, son of cx-Sherifl
Pile, was engaged in hauling saw logs and
was within a few yards of the building
when the flames burst forth. Realizing the
danger he at once put the whip to hi" hors
es, and was some sixty rrxtj away when the
explinn came. Hi horses were stunned,
and be was thrown forward from the sled,

Hamxtnrco, Jan. 17. 13f5.
The w heels of legislation havemoveo very
slowly the past week, and scarcely anything
has been done, bat the exdteroer.t has been
very great, ewimr to the nomination of a
candidate for United States Senator. On
Wednesday evening the house met for a
short session, passed several resolutions and
adjourned. The Senate was more interest
ing, as tbey proceeded to nominate candi-
daua for the C. S. Senate. Everything mov-
ed aiong Harmoniously nnui me oenaur
from
Beaver, feenator Agnew, son
Chief Justice Agnew, offered a resolution
pitching into Cameron ; after the resolution
had beea twice read the youthful statesman
drew frou his pocket a mass of manuscript,
and in a wheexy voice began to read what
was generally believed to be an article writ
ten by his father. It fell as flat as a pan
cake. Even the arca-kicker and leader of
he anti-Cameron forces, was disgusted.
while his lieutenant, Lee looked pained.
The name of Maj. Brown was presented
by Senator Aul, of Pittsburgh ; Hon. Wm
D. Kelly, by Senator McFarian, of Philadel-
Dbia: Hon. J. D. Camerou. by Senator
Ihompaon. of Dauphin ; Gen. James
A.'
Beaver, by Senator Lee, of Venango.
On Thursday morning both branches had
a short session. The Senate did nothing,
acd the House simply passed on second
reading an act to establish additional magis
trates courts in Philadelphia. Every per
son waa anxious to go into caucus, which
met at 3 o'clock Thursday afternoon in the
titate Library, bat adjourned immediately to
the hail of the House, wbere tne circus be
gan iu earnest by electing Senator Handy
Smith, Chairman, who presided with grace
and diguily, aud whose hatpy remarks.
when taiugs looked sturniy, al waya restored
good humor. The fullest scope was given
to each and every member to ventilate him
self, and the soiled garments in the Inde
pendent clothes basket were ail . washed
white and dean. The fight began over a
resolution oflered by Aul. asking that action
of the caucus be not binding on any one.
The able Chairman, Senator Cooper, offered
a substitute, as follows :
Whekeas, It ia essential to party unity
and success, that the will of the majority.
JLsfben fairly ascertained, shall be respected ;
MJM IUi4 13 UC ItfllUAUlCUtM 1 JM.1 41C VI ll
parties and of our free institutions :
Whereas. There is no difference in fact or
principle between a caucus of the Republi
can members of the Senate and House of
Representatives for the purpose of nominat
ing a United States Senator, and the action
of a convention of delegates for the purpose
of nomination being equally essential to
secure the success of Republican candidates ;
therefore
RerolveH, That nominations for United
States Senator, equally with the nomina
tions for National, State and County officers
fairly made in accordance with party usages
are binding on all representatives of the
party, especially upon those participating
therein.
Senator Lee wanted each Honse to vote
on any candidate it may choose. While
everything was ia an uproar Senator Aul
withdrew bis resolution and Lee his amend
ment to Cooper's amendment ; then Cooper
offered his amendment as a resolution, and
made an earnest and eloquent appeal to all
ia support of it. Lee followed in a warlike
speech and attacked Cameron vicioosly.
raking the entire past and bringing no all
the rubbish of years gone, and even charged
that Cameron was not a good Republxan
(I presume this will be strange news to the
Stalwart Republicans of Somerset County.)
As soon as Lee took his seat Senator Hughes,
of Philadelphia, amee and in a most elo
quent and formidable manner replied. His
speech was one that shoold te spread broad
cast over the State. He moved the Conven
tion at his will. His effort was the must
logical, most reasonable, and most eloquent
of all the speeches made. He closed by say
ing : " It ever there was a time in which a
man of tact, experience and parliamentary
skill was needed it is now. and in these re
quirements where in this State, or United
States, is the peer of J. Donald Cameron T'
And then turning round to Lee. he said "Ir
was poor taste for a man like Lee to question
the Republicanism oft'ameron, for if the
opposition to Cameron were Republicans
like him that brave and t.eroic soldier,
James A.Beaver, would be Governor to-day.'
Sponsler arose after Senator Hughes bail
finished and aroused the caucus with bis
eloquence and gave the kickers a broadside
by saying that is it possible that the grand
old soldier. Gen. Beaver, who bad sufferer!
defeat at the hands of the Independents, was
now to be antagoniied with his best friend !"
It was a hard hit for Lee. who hung his
head, while Emery raved and wanted to
speak. He was asked to sit down but refus
ed, whereupon Colbom, the recognized lead
er of the Home, asked the Chair to permit
the gentleman to speak, as he woo d like to
answer kim, as he had contested with his
stripe of Republicans in 11. But when
permitted toe" Independent kicker" woold
not speak, but swore sbamefuliv. A all
the gas was generated a vote was taken on
the smendmenta, both lost, but Cooper's
resolution went through a-flying. The
names of Cameron, Beaver. Grow, Shiras
and Kelly were then placed in nomination,
and the first ballot taken.
Before the voce was taken Senator Agnew
withdrew, and Emery asked if he would be
called a boiler should he withdraw. The
tiair said ne couia not tea wnat me puonc
might call bira.
The lesult of the first ballot was: Came
ron, 116; Beaver, 30; Grow, 5; Kel.v. 5
The nomination of Cameroi. was then made
unanimous.
Emery, Lee ai.d Agnew seem to be very
much surprised. Bv bis moat bitter ene
mies, Cameron's election is now conceded.
Fritlay morning, after a very short session,
both Houses adjourned till Monday night
next. H. E. A.

Whether we agree with Mr. Beech er or
not, few men can speak or write oo any sub
ject of pnb'ic interest with so great a cer

what they say. In discussing the question
as to how far ministers may fairly go into
politics. which he d.ies in the JWfA

Mrs. Dan Faidley and Moses King are
dangerously ill.
Rev. Gallatin ia holding a protracted
meeting at this place. It has been largely
attended, and good order maintained.
In the Dtwoent of December !Uh I notic
ed an iteta giving a description of the rise
and fall of the pole raised by the unterrified
at this place daring tbd campaign. I have
concluded to give your readers a short ac
count of the raising of the aforesaid pole,
which was raised by a crowd of the most
degraded men teat erex assembled in oar
quiet little village, Tbey yelled nntll they
were hoarse, in a manner somewhat resem
bling a horde of Comanchee Indians. The
pole was raised on Republican ground, as
the Democrats did not possess land enough
in the town to plant it. A few days later
two Republicans cut it down ; they cut the
stamp high, not because their legs were too
long to cut a low stamp, but simply to
leave a mark, in order that the " unwashed
and unterrilTed " might not forget where it
stood. Those men always get out in the
sunshine when a good deed's to be done, at
such times as elections and pole cuttings.
and they say they know how a Damocratic
pole looks since they saw the forked pole in
Centreville in I3G1, with a rebel flag on it.
V ben the news got abroad that the pole
bad been cut down the excitement was
great ; G. B. took to his bed with a severe
attack of heart disease, an n H. C.'s gall over
flowed so much that he struck sn old cttrxen
of the town who came near him, but since
then we learn that he has simmered down,
with his pocketbook somewhat lighter, and
G. B. is convalescent. Those two noble pa
triots have been complimented very highly
by the Republicans in this vicinity, and will
always be gratefully rememberer! by the cit
izens of this town.
