    TERRIFICJEXPLOSION
Eight Killed and Twenty-nine
Injured In Chicago.
MANY BUILDINGS WERE SHATTERED.
Banting Boiler lit a Laundry Camed
the Damaxe—Tlte Rnlas Being
Searched For Dead Bodies.
Many Perioai Mlsaing.
CHICAGO, March 12.—8y the explo
sion of the boiler in the Doremus laun
dry, 458 West Madison street, yesterday
8 people were instantly killed, 29 were
injured and several are missing.
The cause of the explosion has not
been determined with accuracy as yet,
and it will probably require an official
investigation to settle the matter. It is
known that the boiler was old, a second
hand affair, and there is no record in
the office of the city boiler inspector of
any inspection having been made within
the last year. Pending the verdict of the
coroner's jury A. L. Doremus, the pro
prietor of the laundry, is held in custody
by the police, and it is the intention of
the authorities to institute criminal pro
ceedings against him should the facts
brought out at the investigation warrant
such proceedings.
The list of dead and wounded was diffi
cult to secure. Reports of the number
of dead in the ruins run all the way from
3 to 20. It is known that 30 employees
»112 the laundry had entered the place be
fore the explosion, because the automatic
limekecper found in the ruins and which
ivas not damaged showed that number of
i -gistcrcd arrivals. Two or three were
entering at the moment of the explosion,
ti.aking an approximate total of 40 em
ployees in and around the building. The
li.~t of injured includes, however, sever
al people residing in the adjoining build
ings, nearly all of which were badly
damaged. The most conservative esti
mate by the police concedes that at least
three, dead or alive, are still in the ruins,
vet the search for bodies in the ruins
Mine to a sudden end last night and the
work of rescue was entirely abandoned.
The cause of the cessation of the search
it as a dispute between the firemen and
I'. lice as to who was responsible for the
iccovery of any bodies which might be
concealed beneath the debris. The fire
jion said they had performed their whole
ilnty, and, gathering up their hose, they
ictired from the scene. The police said
it was not tbeir work to dig for bodies,
and nobody else volunteered to do the
work.
The explosion was one of almost un
paralleled severity. For nearly two
Mocks up and down Madison street build
ings were shattered by its force. Prac
tically every window in these two blocks
was broken, and the list of persons cut
by falling glass will reach to BO or more.
Persons who were in bed in the near vi
cinity say they were hurled from their
beds. Men in barrooms were dashed to
the floors and covered with showers of
irlass. Passengers in street cars were
thrown violently from their seats.

ing In the senate chamber, and for near
ly four hours their spokesmen arguud

J. Bonaparte, the principal speaker on
behalf of the league, denounced the pro
posed law as being wholly bad from be
ginning to end, some parts of it being
worse than others. Furthermore, he de

(Special Correspondence.)
Harrlsburg, March 12. —Naturally
the effect of the death of Senator C.
L. Magee upon the politics of Pennsyl
vania, and especially of Allegheny
county, is being discussed by tlios
who take an active interest in the Re
publican organization. The late Sen
ator Magee was unquestionably the
ablest and strongest of those Republi
cans who saw fit to join the Insurgent
movement in the contest over the Uni
ted States senatorship which was
waged in this state for over four years.
Magee, until within a few days of
the end of the great deadlock, remain
ed within the • Republican ranks and
voted for the Republican caucus norm
nee. Then he insisted that a senator
should be elected. While either un
able or unwilling to get the followers
of Flinn, of Allegheny, into line for
the caucus nominee, he with his per
sonal following at home and a few
others in the state bolted the caucus
and Joined the insurgents. He con
tinued his associations with the instti
gents until the time of his death.
There are those who believe that had
it not been for his physical condition,
(he was In the hands of surgeons and
physicians for the last two years) Mp
gee would never have taken the cour»»
he did. It Is declared that he was in
fluenced by Flinn and others, who were
playing a game of selfish politics, and
cared nothing for Magee's record fo;
consistent Republicanism.
STONE'S TRIBUTE TO MAGEE.
Since Magee has passed away full
credit has been given him by his po
litical opponents of the last few years
for the noble traits in his character
and his great work of chanty.
Governor Stone, In commenting upon
his death, among other things said:
"There is no man in Pennsylvania
whose death could cause more griet'
and be a greater public loss than thai
of Senator Magee. He was an hon
est, fearless, able man, who built up
his own record, and who leaves be
hind him a great host of persona!
friends, who, upon many occasions,
have experienced evidences of his
friendship, and who will cherish his
memory with the most sincere grati
tude. In a private way. without at
tracting the attention of the public, he
did much for charity and much for the
poor —more than many whose name"
are extolled for public beneficence. 1
have always admired him, have nlway*
respected him. and feel In his death a
personal loss."
With the death of Magee the Insur
gents lost their ablest leader.
Flinn should naturally be called
upon to take his place, but he is utter
ly unfitted for leadership. He has
the instincts of the slave driver, and
cannot command the friendship of men
who are associated with him in a po
litical cause. He is domineering, dicta
torial and inconsiderate of the feelings
of others. He has made enemies in
every move he has undertaken during
the last few years, and he has done
the cause with which he has been as
sociated great injury in many ways.
REVOLUTION DUE IN ALLEGHENY
The passing away of Magee will re
sult in a political revolution in Alle
gheny county. Flinn would like to
take his place as the leader of the or
ganization which Magee spent years to
build up and strengthen, but he can
never fill the role. He has enemies In
every ward In Pittsburg, who are in
fluential in their respective localities,
and who are only waiting an oppor
tunity to close their accounts with
him. They will follow almost anybody
but Flinn in the proposed reorganiza
tion of the party. They are not nec
essarily supporters of Col. Quay In
state politics, but they would gladly
Join hands with him to prevent Fllnr.
from coming to the front.
FLINNISM TO BE RETIRED.
The recent movement which result
ed in the passage of the reform charter
bill, the so-called "ripper" legislation,
was brought about by the popular de
sire to get rid of Flinnism, which,
with Magee on his deathbed, seemed to
be cropping out in every branch of the
city government.
Flinn appointments, Flinn contracts,
Flinn grabs of every kind and charac
ter were developing every day until
the people determined that a halt must
be called.
Led by the chnmber of commerce
and kindred organizations of Intluen
tlal citizens, an agitation wa* started
for the reform charter bill, and the
outcome was Its pasaage. Since this
measure received the signature of the
governor leading Republicans of Al
legheny county have been at work per
fecting an organization, and It Is pre
dicted that within the next "0 d.sy< a
thorough and compact committee will
hove been formed in every ward, which
will promptly take up the work of ie
ttring William Kliun from the head of
the party organization In Allegheny
county. The new organization will
work In accord with the regular Re
publican In the state, and they will
add new energy and vim In the strug
gle to wipe out Insurgent ism forever.
THE END IS NEAR.
Philadelphia started In the work of
obliterating the Inaurgents from the
fata of the political utap of Pennsyl- ,
vanla, and David Martin haa practical- j
ly bean relegated to private ||fa Hla |
present following la too small to be
considered a factor Instate politics. I
Now that Kllnn fa to l»e turi*e<i dowu
In hla home stronghold, there will be i
nothing left but a few fragments nil
the lusurgeut organisation Iu the'
stata.
The Martin machine In Philadelphia
and the Pllan mat blue In I'lital.uis
constituted four-fifths of Tfie entire in
surgent following. The contingent In
the Interior of the state has been al
most obliterated, and before the ne
state convention of the Republican par
ty shall be held there will not be
enough insurgents in the entire com
monwealth to elect a corporal's guard
of state delegates.
BALLOT REFORM COMING.
The subject of ballot reform will be
considered by members of the legisla
ture here this week. The several bills
introduced in the senate and the house
on this subject will be taken up and
carefully considered. Col. Quay has
requested the Democratic leaders to
submit a bill, and he believes that if
they are sincere in their professions
for ballot reform there should be no
difficulty in reaching an agreement
upon a bil>, which will meet every rea
sonable demand for ballot reform.
Senator Quay says that he is In favor
of putting every safeguard necessary
around the voting system to in
sure a secret ballot, a correct count and
a true return of the votes as cast. No
one should ask for more.
There is, however, a small element
of so-called radical independents who
want the circle at the top of the offi
cials ballot eliminated, but Republi
cans and Democrats alike who believe
the method of voting a party ticket
should be made as easy as possible, de
mand that some such opportunity to
vote a straight ticket with one mark
shall be given the voters.
FOCHT STILL HOPEFUL.
Senator Focht is still hopeful that
there will be an agreement for non
partisan support of his ballot bill,
with some amendments. Since he has
shown that the Municipal League
would be entitled to a separate circle
on the ballot he does not anticipate
much opposition from that source.
Representative Chew, of Philadel
phia, has Introduced a bill in tho
house which would bring out the
"stay at home" citizens on election
day. It provides that every qualified
voter shall vote at all primary and gen
eral elections or be subject to a fine
of $5 or ten days' Imprisonment. Sick
ness or absence from the county are
the only excuses that, will stand. It
also makes "nominating day"—the day
on which primary elections are held—
a legal holliday. The bill was referred
to the election committee, where it is
probable it will be amended. The
clause declaring nominating dry n hol
iday will be stricken out and the power
of collecting fines will llkaiv be traced
in the hands of magistrates and jus
tices of the peace Instead of the crim
inal courts, as under the bill at pre-ent
Congressman Green, of the Berks-
Lehigli district, appeared before the
house committee on congressional ap
portionment and sncke in favor of
making Berks and Lebanon one con
gressional district. The eoromltf.ee de
cided upon next Thursday ns tlie dile
for final hearing of all who wish to
make recommendations regarding con
gressional apportionment.
The Haworth bill creating a separate
county of Luzerne county, with Ha
zleton as the county seat, has been re
ported adversely to the house. This is
the second new county bill introduced
this session by Mr. Haworth, of Lu
zerne, and negatived by the commit
tee on counties and townships. The
Jones and Stroh employers' liability
bills have been reported from the ju
diciary committee favorably.
