good lead. Goodman fired three shots with
out effect. One of tli om ontered tho east

Charles Bienetnan's family. The bullet
pierced the weatber boards at the second
story, sped on through the plastering of the
bed room occupied by Blonemau'a two
daughters and fell into their bed. The bul
let was found on the bed quilt this morning
by one of tho young ladies. In piercing the
plastering the bullet left a hole about the
slue of a silver half dollar. When It entered
tho room its passage was a few inches above
the top of the headboard of tho bed occu
pied by tho young women.
Tho throe shots had no effect upon the
fugitive and be kept up his pace, running
south on West street from Centre. Goodman
followed and fired two more shots, but they
were also without street. The fugitive con
tinued his flight to Oak street, then turned
west and ran to Chestnut street, where he
turned northwnrd and ran to Centra street,
where trace of him was loat. Ho is still at

DR. SPALDING PRESENTS CHARGES.
says Borne Doctors DoU't Report Diseases
Under Proper tfamts and Urges Pro
secutions A flpeotal Meeting
Fixed to fter Two Phy
sicians In Reply.
The Board of Health last night hold Its
first regular meetln(vin two months, one
session having been omitted on aoconnt of
the inability to secure quorum. On account
of tbo repairs being ttade to the Council
chamber the Board met at the residence of
President Spalding, at his home on South
White street. The members in attendance
were Messrs. Spalding, Holninn, Malone and
Morrison.
The meeting was of a dry routine order
until Secretary Curitu read n letter from the
secretary of the Uotttugh Council, notifying
the Board that Coilhjfl declined to receive
the aunusl report urflees the Board would
eliminate from It the teft rente to the Flyun
case.
Messrs. Spalding anil Malone were of the
opinion that the Iloatil of Health was inde
pendent of the Borough Council and hail
powers and rights III making Its report with
which tbe Council could not interfere. Presi
dent Spalding also spoke at some length on
the Flynn case and sold he was convinced
that tho borough was In fault in tho matter
and he was not prepared to tako a backward
step.
Mr. Holman said It would he unfortunato
to have unpleasant relations existing bctwoen
tbo Board and Council.
Mr. Morrison did not agree with Dr.
Spalding and declared that he still main
tained tho view be hpld froni the (lrst, that
tho Board of Health had not done its duty
in the Flynn case and was more responsible
for tho condition of affairs than Council.
At this point the discussion was dropped
and tbo President directed the reading of
other communications.
Another Interesting part of the meeting
was that in which Presider&tSpaldlug made
an attack on some of the pliagjcians of town
and charged them in violating tho rules of
the Board in tbo competition for business.
He said that tho Polish people have great ob
jection to the placarding and quarantenlng
of communlcablo diseases and it is very hard
for physicians to labor with this class
of people. He added that he had reason to
believe that some members of the medical
profession In town aro disposed to yield to
these people and smother cases that ought to
he reported to the Board. Ho urgod that
action bo taken against these physicians as
soon as possible and said Drs. C. S. Phillips
and J. l'iorao Roberts were two of the
physioians ho referred to. Trt be more
specific ho alleged that the oflButiiag physi
cians by being disposed to give names to com
plaints that would not require the placarding
of houses took buslines from physicians wh
wanted to observo tho rules and report dis
eases in their proper names, Ho also de
clared thatthcro have been oases where physi
cians have pronounced complaints as being
communicable diseases and tho physicians
havo been immediately discharged and others
employod. "Aro you going to enforce tho
law, or havo the powers of tlio Hoard defied?"
Mr. Morrlsou suggested that the doctors be
notified to appear before the Board.
Dr. Spulding said that would do no good,
as the oHendlng physicians know they have
violated the laws. He suggested that tbo
Health Officor be instructed to suo and then
let tbe physicians prove their Innocence. He
rend tlie law which provides tuut pliyslomus
falling to report communicable diseases are
subject to a Duo of not leas than $5 and not
more than $100, and, in default of payment,
imprisonment for not more than 00 days.
Mr. Holmau thought the doctors ought to
havo a hearing before the Board.
It was finally decided that a special meet
ing of the Board be held next Tuesday even
ing, at 7:30 o'clock, and that Drs. Phillips
and Roberts be notified to appear.
The epidemic report snowed there were 27
cases of communlcablo diseases during tbo
month andlng February 37th and 13 eases for
the month ending March 30th.
Tbo report on necrology showed 33 deaths
and 3 still births for the month ending Feb
ruary 20th and 31 deaths and 4 still births for
the month ending March SOth.

ISffoet of tlia Suprrme Court's Deetslon on
tlio Westnrn Associations.
Chicago, March 87. Yesterday after
noon, at tha office of George It Peck,
general counsel of the Chicago, Mil
waukee and St. Paul railroad, a meet
ing of the lending- roads In the Western
Freight association was held for the
purpose of discussing; the recant de
cision nf the supreme court and Its
probable effect on the association un
der which the western roads have been
working:. The meeting was more for
the exchange of views A an for any
other purpose. It was agreed, how
ever, with few dissenting voices, that
the derision would have the effect of
doing awry with the Western Freight
association as It is at rV.-esent organiz
ed. The Western Passenger associa
tion agreement was not taken up, but
the decision regarding the freight as
sociation is sufficiently sweeping to In
clude the passenger association,
It is likely that formal action will be
taken In a few days putting the West
ern Freight association out of exist
ence In the official sense. In a practi
cal sense it is already decided. There
Is no question but that both the pas
senger and freight associations will be
In operation within a short time, but
In a form different from that In which
they have been working up to the
present time. Opinions were divided
Us to whether It was most desirable to
endeavor to bring about such legisla
tion as will allow the roads to form
associations similar to the western
aasenger and freight associations, or
to continre the association work In
such a manner as to avoid all conflict
with the decision of the supreme court.
The general majority of those present
favored the former plan.
Two more roads withdrew from the
Western Freight association yesterday,
the Rock Island and the Sioux City and
Northern being the members to pull
out. The rooms of the association
were practically closed all day, and no
effort was made to do anything be
yond the merest routine.

Terrific Bxploilon of Nitroglycerin Near
Philadelphia.
THE CONCUSSION FELT FOR MILES
The Mutilated Remains of the Victims
Gathered Up in Two Buckets Ten Per
son Injured, But Not Seriously.
Mare Serious Loss of Life
Narrowly Averted.
Philadelphia, March 27. Three men
were blown to atoms and ten persons,
Including two women, injured by an
explosion of nitroglycerin at the Re
pauno Chemical works, near this city,
yesterday. The dead are: James Ham
ilton, aged 80 years; Charles 'Wright,
aged 25, and J. T. Stiles, aged 28. All
were married.
The Injured are John Langford, Will
iam Gardiner, William Tussey, John
Jefferson, Peter Fellman, John Will
iams, Joseph Donnelly, Charles Ma
deira, Lizzie McGlnnls and 'Emma
Bates, The Injuries were sustained
mainly from the force of the concus
sion or from broken class. They are
not serious.
The works are situated on the New
Jersey side of the Delaware river, one
and one-half miles from Glbbstown.
The dead men belonged In Paulsboro,
and the Injured live In Glbbstown. All
were employed In the works, the wo
men In the casting house. The ex
plosion occurred In either the weigh
ing or the separating house, both ot
which were blown to splinters. It wan
at 12:24 o'clock, when the workmen
were returning from dinner. Most of
them had not yet reached their posts,
or the loss of life would probably have
been greater.
The concussion was felt for rhllea
around, and a plasterer at work on
a scaffolding not far from the ground,
three-quarters of a mile away, was
thrown off. The windows In nearly
every house on the company's grounds
were broken. After the excitement had
to some extent subsided guards were
dispatched to all parts of the grounds,
and outsiders were excluded from the
eompany's territory. Meanwhile a
corps of men waB put to work among
the ruins of the two buildings to ascer
tain the extent of the disaster. After
much search the mutilated remains of
the three victims were gathered Into
two buckets. Wright was Identified by
a ring on one of the fingers, and Stiles
by a pair of broad shoulders, from
which the head as well as the lower
part of the body had been torn.
The explosion was of such tertlflo
force that, besides destroying the two
houses, tt bore a holo fully 80 feet long
and 25 feet wide in the ground upon
which they had stood.
Information-of the details of the ac
cident, waa refuaefl'by everybody con
nected with the company. It was
learned, however, that Stiles was In
the separating house and Iamllton In
the weighing house when the explosion
occurred. Wright's duties kept him
going from one to the other of the
buildings, and he may have been In
either. The cause Is assigned to ex
cessively high temperature In one of
the houses, quantities of the explosive
being in both at times.
The company Is engaged In the man
ufacture of dynamite, which necessi
tates the handling of nitroglycerin,
wood pulp and rntrate of soda. Its
plant covers about COO acres, and, In
consequence of the character of the
work carried on, Is almost completely
Isolated from any habitation. Tho
plant comprises about 70 separate small
frame and Iron bulldlnes, most ot
them one story In height. Each Is used
for a distinct department of the works.
On March 24, 1884, an explosion oc
curred by which nearly the entire plant
was destroyed and six men were killed.
That explosion was caused by the
generation of nitric acid of excessive
heat. The killed were Lamont Dupont,
then president of the company; Walter
N. Hill, superintendent; Kdward Nor
cross, compounder of nitric add; A. C.
Ackerman, of St. Louis, a traveling
representative of the company, and
two workmen. Mr. Dupont was of the
third generation of a family famoua
since the beginning of the present
century for the manufacture of explo
sives. He was the second ot the fam
ily to meet death at the works, the
first being Irene Dupont, who was kill
ed 26 years ago.

The contest was a very close one. At
the end of the arguments the Judges
Withdrew, and after staying out 20
minutes declared that, although it had
been very hard to decide who should
be proclaimed the victor, they had de
cided, after serious deliberation, to
award It to Tale. The question was:
"Resolved, that the United States
Should adopt definitely the single gold
standard, even if Oreat Britain, France
and Germany should be willing to en
