CiHCiNif ATI, July 15.-A terrible explosion oc- curred late this afternoon at Kings powder mills, on the Little Miami railroad, tweaty-nine, miles from this city. Tea persons were killed and thirty or forty seriously injured. Two empty freight cars were being rolled on to a sidetrack, where a car containing 500 kegs of powder was standing. When the cars struck there was an explosion, and im- mediately after smother car with 800 kegs of powder exploded, making 1,300 kegs altogether. William Frialie, a brakeman, was standing on one of the empty cars whea the explosion oc- curred. No trace of his body has been found. Five other persons, supposed to be employes of the powder company, were killed. King's Pow- der Company, and the Peters Cartridge Works have buildings on both sides of the river along the raiiroad. The explosion oc-urred on the south side, a d the destruction was enormous. Tbere are a number of eottages occupied by workmen for the powder company and situated close to the track. These were shattered by the explosion and their inmates injured. Twelve or fifteen girls at work in the cartridge factory were crippled by the explosion. The railroad freight house, belonging to the Little Miami railway, together with all the adjacent buildings, were set on fireand totally consumed. The tracks and ties of the road are torn up and ereat holes ploughed in the ground. The Peters' cartridge lactorv was burned to the ground, and nothing but a mass of blackened, smouldering ruins remain to mark the spot where the building stood. As soon as the news reached this city a relief train was dispatched to the scene of the disaster, witn Superintendent Pettis and a large party of surgeons on board, and relief was offered the sufferers as scon as possible. The work of searching for the missing caring for the wounded is now progressing. The force of the explosion demolished all the wires in the vicinity, and it was Impossible to get any news from there till midnight when a delayed Panhandle train arrived. Even the passenger* could not say much, as everytning about King's Mills was in too demoralized a con- cition when they left to learn much about the actual state of affairs. They described the scene in the vicinity of the explosion as awful. Buildings for hundreds of feet in all directions from the explosion, were badly wrecked. Th Peters cartridge factory is literally demolished, and fire from the combustible contents com- pleted the work of destruction. About thirty girls are supposed to have been at work in the factory at the time of the explo- sion, and most of them are thought to be badly hurt. Passengers who arrived on the train say ten persons were killed, and that it is possible more bodies are in the debris. Miss Cora Looney, a niece or Mrs. Brock way, left iast Thursday for Shellabnrg, Wis. She has been iu this town nearly two years and made many friends who regret her departure. On Thursday evetfing last the Chehalls Cornet bacd gave a serenade to the newly married couples of the (own, who have just returned from their wedding tours and on Friday one of them received an ovation from an improvised orchestra.

Greatest City of the West?His Railroad Plans. TLACOMA, July 15.?Elijah Smith was seen by a POW-INTKLLIOCNCEK correspondent tonight He speaks in glowing terms and has unbounded faith in Seattle as the future great city of the Pacific Northwest He says that the rebuilding of the city has been wonderful and that the fire was really a benefit "If Seattle's growth was retarded by the fire," said Mr. Smith, "and the population detracted for the time being, the magnificence of the rebuilt city will regain doubly all it has lost." TACONA, July 19?Gereral Manager Kimberly of the Northern i'acilic was seen by a POST-IN- TELLIGENCER correspondent in regard to the ap- pointment of a successor to Division Superin- tendent Horner of the Pacific division, who has tendered his resignation, to take effect Angnst L He said that a successor had not been determined upon and would not be until the party returned to St. Paul. To a question as to who would receive the appointment and if it was no; the policy of the company to appoint some one thoroughly familiar with the ground, he satd that such policy was . est. As to wnom he left the correspondent to draw conclusions. Nothing new has developed along the l«k9 shore, LO bodies having beau recovered. It is piobable that no more bodies will be found for two or three days, and It is hop?d at I. ke City that there are not over a dozen more iu the lake, but at Red Wing the number is placed at two or three times that number. Captain Wethereu has not been seen hi re since yesterday at noon. He to d aci?i:iz;'n of Red Wing that the number oa board at the time of the disaster wou'il not excc;d IT:). The Red Wing man de:.kd the captain's figures, as being over thirty be'ow the ttuth, end accused both the captain and crew of bHirg drunk aud unfit to have charge of the boat at such a time. There is no proof of suoh a stite of affair*. There w<re those on the ba<-ge among the passengers who had been drinking, and whose actions drove the women and children to the cabin. This fact may be the ground for the rumor. Another rumor tbat caused great indignation, sccused tbe capta n of ordering th* cabin door to be locked and keeping peaple inside. Misa Aggie Bartron, of Lake City, one of these res- cued from the barge, says all the womeu and children were ordered into the cabin from the barge. It would be natural for the ciptainto do this as it was intensely dark and the rain and hall made it extremely disagreeable to remain ou deck. On the other hand, tbe engineer says that the captain tho ight the barge safer than the stetmer, aud s nt the order down to the cabin for the women and children to go on the barge. Instead of carrying on tbe order cor- rectly, the man told them to nay in tbe cabin aud lock tbe door, which t&ey did. Previous to that most of the women had left the barge for tbe steamesi telling the engineer tbat most of the men on the barge were drunk snd had been acting in an manner, and they woula net stay there. Wat tber these are the facts or nor. it is cert tin tint the door was shut if not locked, when the rescuers reached the steamer, indu t ng that it had been closed throughout. Tfce Young Men's Institute. PORT TOWNSEND, July 15.?Judge J. F. Sulli- van, of San Francisco, arrived here today from Salt Lake City. He went East some time ago to organize an Atlantic jarisdietion of the Young Men's Institute. This jurisdiction was organ- ized at Cincinnati July 4.

Tonight Judge Sullivan was tendered a grsnd benefit by the Young Men's Institute. He leaves for San Francisco Thursday. It will be remembered tbat the celebrated Sarah Althea Hiil-sharon case was tried before Judge Sulli- van. The Victoria Seal Liar. VICTORIA, B. C., July 15.?The statement tbat two Canadian vessels which recently sailed out of Maple bay were armed with guns and would resist the American revenue cutters, is without foundation, as is also the report that tbe steam schooner Mischief, belonging at Seattle, was chartered to take supplies to the sealers and bring down their eatcb. Messrs. Hall Si Mar- win, wbo own seven oat of the thirty vessels running out of Victoria, say that the reports were sent out to prejudice the foreign office at London against the cause of the sealers. la. m.?A messenger of the Adams Express, says that when he passed King's Mills station at 11:30 it was bright as day all around. Everything combustible was burning, and people everywhere for a great distance around were fighting the fire. The roadmaster of the Little Miami had information that there were three families liv» ing in little cottages near the plsice of the explosion. Diligent sear.h bad failed to find three of them. He says there was great cenfusion and such a thing as ascertain- ing the names was next to impossible. An incident related by him was that the thirty girls In the cartridge fac- tor saved themselves from tbe flamee by catching hold of a rope that happened to hang from the house to the ground, sliding down this to the ground. His story are tbat more than ten are killed. Tacoma Fall of Railroad Men. TACOMA, July 15.?The city is ful; of railway officials tonight some going to Alaska by the Queen to-morrow, and others on their periodical tripa Among thoee here are Charles L.

Roper, director of the Northern Pacific; General Super- intendent Kimberly, Genersl Manager Melleu, and Chief Counsel McNaught, of the Northern Pacific, and Eiijah Smith, president of The Ore- gon Improvement Company. Judgj Bsyrel', o? Argyle, who was in the boat gives p sitive evidence *cain>t the charge of drunkenness. lie says tfjst the ceptein wu not cnly sober, but fuliy conscious of the presenca of the storm, although not fullyappre- hending Its gravity. The captain walked through the cabin quietly, 'ryiDg to caim the excited passengers and telling them he did not think there was any danger, hot if any wished to do BO they could put on life preservers and prepare for the wor»t possibility. A few minu'es later he once more male the same suggestion. The charge against the crew probably originated in the behavior of some of the drunken male pas- sengers on the barge. Seeing he severity of the storm, the captaiu wished those who were on the barge at the merry of the wind and rain and hail to seek refuge in the cabin, but later he considered the bargn tne safer place, and or- dered the women a id children to remain there. Tne o.- '.er was miscarried, or a*, least such seems to have been the case. BIG FIRE IN MINNEAPOLIS. Seven-Story Warehouse and Adjoining Building Gone?Loss, 91,000,000.

He assured the jurymen as citizens that the matter would bo laid before ihe rrand jury at once, and a rigid examination be had. The jury acted on his opinion and the coroner dis- missed them. WASHINGTON CITY, July 15. Senator Power this morning presented a mammoth petition from fifty-one towns in Montana, signed by 2.130 citixens. asking for legislation to preserve to the people of the state the miners! lands in it. and to prevent Northern Pacific Railroad Company from acquiring the lands to which it is cot clearly entitled under its charter. The petitioners allege that the Northern Pacific is claiming nearly ail the odd sections of mineral lands and has canted them to be certified to. This certification is based on plats made by deputy surveyors show- ing them to be non-mineral lands which, the petition says, are erroneous statements. Under the decisions of the courts there is little hope of correcting the existing errors. Millions of dollars are now being in- vetted in developing these lands, the benefits of which the company is not entitled to, aad the petition says that unless a relief measure is passed the title to nearly one-half of the mineral land of the state will go to the company.

A white man. name unknown, was killed last fall by an Indian. The facts, aa obtainable now, are as follows: On Jaly 4 Antoaie Finlay, at Egan, shot and killed bis cousin, William Pin* lay, another Indian. While tbe murderer was being taken to Demerwiile by Deputy SbetUP Grant, he said he supposed he was going to ha killed, and after he had had a good sleep he would tell a secret of an Indian killinga white man. The Indian kept his word. He mentioned the spot m the vicinity of Smith valley, where the bones of a white man could be found. A party of settlers toon, the Indian and went directly to the spot They were horrified to find the skel- eton, jest as the Indian had said, partly covered with brush.

CiHCiNifATI, July 15.-A terrible explosion oc-curred late this afternoon at Kings powdermills, on the Little Miami railroad, tweaty-nine,miles from this city. Tea persons were killedand thirty or forty seriously injured.Two empty freight cars were beingrolled on to a sidetrack, where a car containing500 kegs of powder was standing. When thecars struck there was an explosion, and im-mediately after smother car with 800 kegs ofpowder exploded, making 1,300 kegs altogether.

William Frialie, a brakeman, was standing onone of the empty cars whea the explosion oc-curred. No trace of his body has been found.Five other persons, supposed to be employes ofthe powder company, were killed. King's Pow-der Company, and the Peters Cartridge Workshave buildings on both sides of the river alongthe raiiroad. The explosion oc-urred on thesouth side, a d the destruction was enormous.Tbere are a number of eottages occupied byworkmen for the powder company and situatedclose to the track. These were shattered by theexplosion and their inmates injured.

Twelve or fifteen girls at work in the cartridgefactory were crippled by the explosion. Therailroad freight house, belonging to the LittleMiami railway, together with all the adjacentbuildings, were set on fireand totally consumed.The tracks and ties of the road are torn up andereat holes ploughed in the ground. ThePeters' cartridge lactorv was burned to theground, and nothing but a mass of blackened,smouldering ruins remain to mark the spotwhere the building stood.

As soon as the news reached this city a relieftrain was dispatched to the scene of the disaster,witn Superintendent Pettis and a large partyof surgeons on board, and relief was offered thesufferers as scon as possible. The work ofsearching for the missing caring for thewounded is now progressing.

The force of the explosion demolished all thewires in the vicinity, and it was Impossible toget any news from there till midnight when adelayed Panhandle train arrived. Even thepassenger* could not say much, as everytningabout King's Mills was in too demoralized a con-cition when they left to learn much aboutthe actual state of affairs. They described thescene in the vicinity of the explosion as awful.Buildings for hundreds of feet in all directionsfrom the explosion, were badly wrecked. ThPeters cartridge factory is literallydemolished,and fire from the combustible contents com-pleted the work of destruction.

About thirty girls are supposed to have beenat work in the factory at the time of the explo-sion, and most of them are thought to be badlyhurt. Passengers who arrived on the train sayten persons were killed, and that it is possiblemore bodies are in the debris.

Miss Cora Looney, a niece or Mrs. Brock way,left iast Thursday for Shellabnrg, Wis. She hasbeen iu this town nearly two years and mademany friends who regret her departure.

Nothing new has developed along the l«k9shore, LO bodies having beau recovered. It ispiobable that no more bodies will be found fortwo or three days, and It is hop?d at I. ke Citythat there are not over a dozen more iu the lake,

but at Red Wing the number is placed at two orthree times that number.

Captain Wethereu has not been seen hi re sinceyesterday at noon. He to d aci?i:iz;'n of RedWing that the number oa board at the time ofthe disaster wou'il not excc;d IT:). The RedWing man de:.kd the captain's figures, as beingover thirty be'ow the ttuth, end accused boththe captain and crew of bHirg drunk aud unfitto have charge of the boat at such a time. Thereis no proof of suoh a stite of affair*. There w<rethose on the ba<-ge among the passengers whohad been drinking, and whose actions drovethe women and children to the cabin. This factmay be the ground for the rumor.

Another rumor tbat caused great indignation,sccused tbe capta n of ordering th* cabin doorto be locked and keeping peaple inside. MisaAggie Bartron, of Lake City, one of these res-cued from the barge, says all the womeu andchildren were ordered into the cabin from thebarge. It would be natural for the ciptaintodo this as it was intensely dark and the rain andhall made it extremely disagreeable to remainou deck. On the other hand, tbe engineer saysthat the captain tho ight the barge safer thanthe stetmer, aud s nt the order down to thecabin for the women and children to go on thebarge. Instead of carrying on tbe order cor-rectly, the man told them to nay in tbe cabinaud lock tbe door, which t&ey did. Previous tothat most of the women had left the barge fortbe steamesi telling the engineer tbat most ofthe men on the barge were drunk snd had beenacting in an manner, and theywoula net stay there. Wat tber these are thefacts or nor. it is cert tin tint the door was shutif not locked, when the rescuers reached thesteamer, indu t ng that it had been closedthroughout.

The captain walked throughthe cabin quietly, 'ryiDg to caim the excitedpassengers and telling them he did not thinkthere was any danger, hot if any wished to doBO they could put on life preservers and preparefor the wor»t possibility. A few minu'es laterhe once more male the same suggestion. Thecharge against the crew probably originated inthe behavior of some of the drunken male pas-

sengers on the barge. Seeing he severity ofthe storm, the captaiu wished those who wereon the barge at the merry of the wind and rainand hail to seek refuge in the cabin, but laterhe considered the bargn tne safer place, and or-dered the women a id children to remain there.Tne o.- '.er was miscarried, or a*, least such seemsto have been the case.

WASHINGTON CITY, July 15.Senator Powerthis morning presented a mammoth petition

from fifty-one towns in Montana, signed by 2.130citixens. asking for legislation to preserve to thepeople of the state the miners! lands in it.and to prevent Northern Pacific RailroadCompany from acquiring the lands towhich it is cot clearly entitledunder its charter. The petitioners allege thatthe Northern Pacific is claiming nearly ail theodd sections of mineral lands and has cantedthem to be certified to. This certification isbased on plats made by deputy surveyors show-ing them to be non-mineral landswhich, the petition says, are erroneousstatements. Under the decisions of the courtsthere is little hope of correcting the existingerrors. Millions of dollars are now being in-vetted in developing these lands, the benefits ofwhich the company is not entitled to, aad thepetition says that unless a relief measure ispassed the title to nearly one-half of the mineralland of the state will go to the company.
