Chicago, July 17. A caisson of Battery
F, Second artillery, U. S. A., exploded
with terrlflo force yesterday afternoon at
Grand nnd Onkwood boulevards. Three
artillerymen nnd one trooper were In
stantly killed. Nearly a score of other per
sonstroops, residents in the vicinity and
passers-by were injured, some of them
fatally. The list of the killed and wounded
Is as follows:

the legs. Miss Alice York, tendon of heel

falling glass.
The troops left Brighton park for a long
march to exercise tho horses. They were
in command of Captain Dodd, of Troop
F, Third cavnlry, nud consisted of Troop
r, lhlrd cavalry, forty men; Troop E,
Sixth cavalry.LieuteuantTnte, forty men;
platoon of Battery F, Second artillery,
two guns, Lieutenant Cnyle, twenty-three
men; Troop II, Seventh cavalry, Captain
Varnum, forty men. The men marched
in this order. Everything went smoothly
and there were no incidents until the
column marching south on Grand boule
vard was just crossing Onkwood boule
yard. Then a terrlfllc explosion occurred;
The men on the caisson, supposed to bo
Donovan nud Doyle, were literally blown
to pieces and others were thrown many
feet by the violence of tho concussion.
Four of the horses drawing the caisson
fell in their tracks, shot through and hor
ribly mangled, while three others wero
blown fifty feet ahead against tho trees
on the boulevard. The caisson was blown
to atoms, not a piece of it larger than a
man's hand being found. Tho boulevard
looked like a battlefield.
There was a quick series of explosions
after the Hrst report and shrapnel shot
rained like hail among tho trees on tho
boulevard and pierced the surrounding
buildings. The concussion broke every
window in the houses for blocks away.
The walls and roofs of the dwellings
showed the torriflc effect of tho missiles.
Unexploded shells of the rear part of tho
caisson lay strewn over the ground. With
the explosion came great confusion of tho
troops nnd for a moment the meu and on
cers Beeined powerless to move.
It was some little time before tho two
artillerymen could be found. One ot them,
mangled beyond recognition, but sup
posed to he Doyle, had been blown over a
board sign tweuty-flvo feet high nnd was
found in a vacant lot behind it. One leg
and uu arm were gone. The other man,
supposed to be Donovan, had been
thrown nbout 800 feet nnd was found in a
vacant lot near tho Lake Shore tracks.
Joseph Gaylor was found near where he
was struck.
Great dnmngo was wrought by the ex
plosion to neighboring property. Win
dows in most of thu surroundiug houses
were blown out, and the damage to resi
dence and park property In thu neighbor
hood of the accident Is estimated at about
$10,000. Tho house of F. C. Huhliug was
damaged to the extent of about 1,000. J.
It. Custer lives directly opposito where
the accident occurred nnd sustained a
loss of about 11,500. A large piece of tue
of tho wheels of the gun carriage was car
ried through his sitting room window nud
carried away u laige lamp which stood at
the window.
The caisson consisted of a limber, on
which is u chest, and the carriage, con
taining two chests more of ammunition,
making three chests on the cnisson. The
explosion occurred in the chest of the
limber, and the force ot the explosion
was to the rear, tearing away the caisson
nnd Igniting the powder in tho other two
chests, The first caisson carried forty-two
shrapnel nud forty-four cartridges, Tho
shrapnel are loaded percussion shells, con
taining fulminates and small halls, and
are fired from the cannon by a cartridge
containing, as in this case three and three;
quarter pounds of powder. ,
The theory of the accident is that the
screw plug at the base of one of tho shrap
nel became loosened, some of the powder
leaked out any being ground and pounded
by the jolting ot tho limber Ignited, the
powder in the cartridges exploded aud
the ignition of the cartridges in the other
two chests followed. The forco ot the ex
plosion can be mora readily understood
when it is remembered that the 133 cart
ridgsi iu the chests contained 493 pounds
of powder.
The guns were the new rifled Held pieces
recently introduced into thu service and
have never seen active duty. The ammu
nition is a counle ot months old aud has
been jolted ovur the rough roads In Kan
sas, aud yet when going at a light trot on
the smoothest road in Chicago, the ex
plosion took place.

PHILADELPHIA'S "SWEAT SHOPS"
fb Report f the l'rnnsylvsnla Bureau
of Initmtrial Siatlatlcs.
HAnr.Isnur.o, July 17. The report of tho
bureau of Industrial statistics, just is
sued, contains an elaborate article on tho
sweating shop systum iu Philadelphia.
Tho persons engaged in the "sweat shops"
of that city are of various nationalities.
A large number at present employed nro
Hussian Jews. There nro also a consider
able number of Americans. Tho Inquiry
made by the bureau shows, however, that
the great number of theso "swenters" aro
of foreign unreutnge, whoso parents lu
most cases followed the snino pursuit.
Two hundred and thirty-seven shops
were visited by the agents of the bureau
and these are divided into two classes.
The shops occupied by the Germans nnd
Americans are of a very different char
acter from those occupied by tho Hussian
Jews. Most of the shops of tho former
clnss are very clean and free from criti
cism, but the shops of tho Hussian Jews
form a strong, forbidding contrast. Evi
dently they prefer filth to cleanliness,
Judging from the detailed description
giveu of each shop by the report.
At the time of making this invcstlgn
Hon a large number of shops had been
closed in consequence of the general de
pression in business. Probably one-half
of them have been closed during tho Inst
twelve mouths. Thu report contains full
statistics concerning the size of rooms oc
cupied by those engaged in this industry.
In many eases not more than four or fivo
hundred cubic feet of space is occupied by
a person.
There were 1,800 persons employed in
the places visited. Of this number 089
were meu, 73S women, 40 boys under 10,
aud 22 girls under 10. Of the employers,
there were 015 Russians, 400 Americans,

Over tho ltennlt, 9ay tho Aiuerlcant Did
Nut Do hi Well Tli? DM In the Trial
Kvwllts.
London, July 17. Denplte the love of
fnlr play, of which the EhkIMi are wont
to boatt, the crowds which witnessed the
International athletic contests hit ween
tho Oxford nud Yale tenms ou the Queen's
Club grounds yesterday were generally
most unfairly partisan. Of course In the
box where the Amerlcnn ambassador and
n largo number of prominent Kiigllih
mcn were gathered the Englishmen made
n show of clapping their hnnds when a
Yale mnn was successful, and Mr. Unyard
was equally careful to applaud the sue
cesses of the Oxford men, but everywhere
else the most Intenso jnalously was mani
fested. In front of what was knqwn h
Yale's pavilion, which was supposed to
be reserved for American, a crowd of
well dressed men and women gathered.
and when the little knot of Yale men gave
me college cheer tunny of these people
would turu round aud make insulting re
marks. "They call themselves gentlemen,"
fccornfully remarked a lady in the Ameri
can party, and when Yale won noiue
events and her pnrtinus were rejoicing, a
burly llritisher yelled "Kemember that
thellritnunialat the Vigilant sixtimen."
Xone of these remarks were made gooit
imturedly, but with the most Intense pas
tlon. Tho Bceuo at the end expressed the
whole feeling While poor I'ond. who
ran one of thu pluckiest races ever seen,
was lying in his friend's nruis, tho Oxonian
who had saved the English from being
tied, was being borne triumphantly to the
pavilion, men and women following, with
faces ntlnme, nud running and yelling iu
maddening crowds.
Messrs. Illckok, of the Ynle team, and
Fry, of the Oxfords, wero interviewed by
tho Associated I'ress correspondent after
thegnmes. Kry was very happy. He said
the Oxford team was delighted with the
Yale athletes. Ho thought tho Americans
had not done their best, nud certnlnly
wero not up to tho record. This was bo
causo they wero over trained, whilo tho
Oxford men had not reached their bust
form because thoy were under trained.
He said further that, Mthough it was dif
ficult to induce the Oxford men to train
iu the summer time, he was determined,
if possible, to get Oxford to agree to a re
turn match with Yale iu 1S93. He hoped
thut the athletes of tho two universities
could meet annually.
Illckok snld ho was bitterly disap
pointed, not so much because the Yale
team were beaten as bueause the men did
not dons well as they did In the trials.
"I havo thrown the hammer," he said,
"over V23 feet, hut today I could not ex
ceed 110 foet. However, there Is no use
looking for reasons. They got there first
and we were beaten. They are n splen
did lot of fellows and there Is nothing to
regret but the result."
