THE MORNING OREGONIAN, WEDlfTESDAT, MTVESIBEtt 5, iat yet Fr m w B8 Kill MANY Twelve Lives Lost In an Election Accident. INJURED NUMBER ABOUT FIFTY Kew Torlc Gathering for Pleasure Proven One of Death Hun dred Are Thrown Down, and Trampled On. NEW YORK, Nov. 4. By a series of ex plosions of pyrotechnic "borate 'and other fireworks tonight, among a vast multitude gathered In Madison Square Garden to "witness the ascension of an airship, and a display of election returns, 12 persons were killed outright, many of them being blown almost to pieces, and at least 50 Injured, many of them fatally. It Is esti mated that at least 30,000 persons thronged the Square at the time of the explosions, which were succeeded by a frightful panic in which hundreds were thrown down and trampled under foot. Five hundred policemen and all the am bulances In the city were Instantly sum moned, and the dying and those most seriously injured were removed to the hospitals. In addition to these, many of the wounded were taken away by irlends. Nine men in charge of the fireworks display were placed under ar rest immediately after the explosion. Dead: Policeman Denunis Shea. "William B. Flnnety. George Rlttle. Harold Robley. Six unknown men. Unknown colored man. Unknown colored boy. The most seriously Injured: Policeman .Michael McGee, Policeman Michael Rea gan, Florence Dyer, David Myers, Will iam Hallery, John Glaner, James Corry- un, irar.k Leiston, George Landon, Charles Gladwin, John Farrell, E. Driler, Frank L. Keeler, Frank Wilson, Helen Wilson, Henry Adams, Charles Olgan, L. Davis, Joseph Schaefer, Samuel Mayer, Angelo Domlnick. The densest portion of the throng that packed the square was gathered along Madison avenue close to the place re served for the discharge of the fireworks. Along the border of the square facing the avenue were arranged three groups' of castlron mortars, 20 In each group, and loaded with heavy bombs. A few minutes after 10 o'clock, the first row of mortars was touched off, but before the discharge tbok place one of them fell over on Its side, and the next Instant the bomb was shot into the thickest of the crowd, where it exploded and hurled the people Into heaps. The force of the mortar and the concussion of the explosion knocked down the rest of the row of mortars, and a thundering volume of huge projectiles plowed through the crowd. Almost in stantly, the second group of 20 mortars, about 100 feet further up the avenue, dis charged their contents of the mortars Into the crowd and a moment later the third group, evidently Igniting by the. showers of falling sparks, exploded In the eame manner. In the panic that ensued, thousands ran blindly across the square, tripping over the seats and benches, and falling, were trampled on. The police on duty were carried along by the rush, and for half an hour the wildest confusion reigned. - - - After the smoke of the explosion had cleared away, 16 persons were found lying In Madison avenue, between Twenty-third and Twenty-fifth streets. Scores of in jured were scattered about the avenue and the square. Among the dead was a policeman who was standing close to the first mortar, and whose body was frightfully mangled. A force of 500 policemen was soon on the spot, and upward of 100 physicians and 200 nurses were summoned from the hos pitals, every available vehicle being pressed into service for the trasportatlon of the wounded. The following persons connected with the fireworks In connection witinthe dis play were arrested: Henry Temple, Frank Listvan, James T. Allen, Edward Smith. Herman Rogers, Charles Hollman, John Fullan. None of them jcould offer an ex planation of how the explosion took place. TO MOVE FROM PORTLAND Headquarters of Great Central at RoBebnrg and Coos Bay. Chief Engineer Kinney, of the Great Central Railroad, Came in from Roseburg yesterday morning, and, after a busy day here, left In the evening to return to the scene of operations in the field. While here he announced that the head offices of the company, now on the third floor of the Ainsworth block, in this city, would be transferred to Roseburg and Coos Bay for convenience during the construction of v tne ranroaa. ine removal win De enectea pthis month. ' By no means will we abandon Port land," said Mr. Kinney, when asked If that was the meaning of the change In the headquarters of the company. "Our rail road enterprise contemplates building, to Portland as Veil as to Coos Bay. But while we are busy with building operations In Douglas and Coos Counties, it Is alto gether more convenient to have our of fices there. Our president, J. Thorburn Ross, and secretary. John X. Kollock, will retain their offices in Portland. The en gineer and construction department, how ever, can do better work near the field of operations, and wc will get down there. "Everything Is proceeding satisfactorily. Our commissary building at Bangor ia nearly ready to occupy, and It will be our headquarters on Coos Bay." Our depot and office building at Roseburg is also nearly completed. Roseburg is growing fast. The surveyors are making fair progress, locat ing the line between Roseburg and Myrtle Point. Speaking of the whole enterprise Salt Lake to Coos Bay It was never in more satisfactory shape than it is today. "Yes, I know there have been some un kind words said about us, but we'll have to stand them, because we are not In posi tion to make public assurances that many people would, like to have. . When they find they cannot kill us off,' they will all come around and be our friends. Many of the harsh things have been said by people whom we favored by giving easy jobs at large pay until they failed to serve the best Interests of the company. Our ex perience with engineers has been partic ularly unsatisfactory. Hereafter, instead of paying a high price for little work, I shall pay less money and exact more work. I am tired of men whose chief purpose in seeking employment seems to be to get into positions where they can play detect ive. Our force is now pretty well weeded out, and I think we shall be able to ac complish more hereafter. "Contractor Small Is going right ahead with grading on the line between Empire City arid Marshfield, and is accomplishing t, great deal of work without any friction whatever." Railroad Xotes. Those who take stock in the rumor that the entire Harrlman system of railroads Is to be operated from general headquar ters to be established In Salt Lake City point to a large office building in that town which Is said to have been leased by the Oregon Short Line, and say there can be no other use for It than to house the Harrlman general offices. Three tanks for the storage of fuel oil aro nearly completed on the Oregon lines of the Southern Pacific at Ashland, Hornbrook and Edgewood. Another has been begun it Dunsmulr. It is expected that oil will supersede wood as locomo tive fuel in the Siskiyou "Mountains before the end of the Winter. President Lytic of the Columbia South ern, says there is no foundation for the report that any merger of his railroad with the Columbia River & Northern is contemplated. The two lines do not get within SO miles of each other at any point, they reach in opposite directions, and have absolutely nothing In common. The Coos Bay, Roseburg & Eastern Railroad has a proposal before the citi zens of Marshfield to take Its terminal into the town instead of holding; it half a mile outside, as at present. This Is said to be a shrewd move to get the railroad terminal established In Marshfield under conditions compelling It to stay there, thus to defeat the railroad plans of the proposed town of Bangor In case the Coos Bay, Roseburg & Eastern should be transferred to the Great Central. IN HONOR OF THE ' MIKADO Xew Yorlc Japanese Commemorate Birthday of the Emperor. NEW YORK, Nov. 4. Nearly 200 Jap anese residents of this city have com memorated at a banquet the 50th anni versary of the birth of Mutsu Kito, . the Emperpr of Japan. Songs were sung in Japanese to the accompaniment of an American orchestra, while toasts and speeches also were delivered In the. truly American style. The wives and the daughters of many of the guests were present, and joined In singing the na tional hymn. Sadazuchl Uchlda, the Jap anese Consul, presented and welcomed English and American guests, of whom there were quite a number. The prog ress of the Japanese nation during the last SO years, he said, had been largely due to the great mind of the present Em peror and to wise judgment in adopting Western ideas and methods. The Em peror's great ambition, he declared, was to bring enlightenment and education to the people of Japan. ' AT THE HOTELS. THE PORTLAND. Chas Hldde. X Y J F Douglas. M Y J R Cook.

LEE FAVORS COXDITIOXAIi PA ROLE FOR GOOD BEHAVIOR. Saperlntcndent of. Penitentiary Alio S aggros t xiKht School and Citi zens' Aid Society. SALEM. Oct. 2S. (To the Editor.) Rev. Dr. Ketchum, of, the First Presby terian Church of Salem, .favored his au dience lest Sunday morning with a ser mon on "Prison Reform," which I had not the pleasure of hearing, but have read' the report of It In three different papera. He spoke in a genera) way of the need of better methods for "the reformation of criminals, and said, many good and truth ful things. It wa3 not hjs object to criti cise and he showed a commendable spirit In his utterances. He was not, however, sufficiently careful in some of his declarations relating to matters of which he had no personal knowledge, and his remarks would be misleading so far as they relate to the laws of our state and the management of its penitentiary. He may have discrimi nated more carefully than he Is reported, as the summary of a dlscoursa cannot contain all of its nice distinctions. There are two considerations called out by his sermon which I wish to present. The first is that probably more has been done by the prison authorities for the reformation of the Inmates and thelrd moral uplifting than he supposes, and second that the opportunity to assist them, when 'discharged, of the good peo ple, like himself, Is greater than he sup poses. In support of the first proposition, allow me to quote from my last biennial re port. At bottom of page 12 is this head ing, "Reformation as Well as Punish ment," under which I say in part: "From financial, patriotic and moral standpoints, every good citizen Is Inter ested In the suppression of crime and In the prevention of Its recurrence by those who have been guilty of its perpetration. "Section 15. article 1. of our slate con stitution, declares that 'laws for the pun ishment of crime shall be founded upon the principle of reformation and not of vindictive justice.' Agreeable to this pro vision, I have more freely arranged for rollgious services and lectures In the chapel on Sundays and holidays, have en couraged .the donation of standard liter ature by the public and Its reading, by the men. From receipts in the contribu tion box in the turnkey's room, I have been able to furnish some of the' more studious with school books. Our library contains about 1S00 volumes, and the monthly reports of our librarian show that a large number of books are read. . . . Some of the men confined here will again perform civic duties and min gle in business circles. We want more to do so. That which preserves their oelf respect. awakens their' patriotism and keeps them In touch with the outside world Is a valuable aid to that end." Under another heading I say: "I am in favor of a conditional release, or parole, system, by which exemplary prisoners may have an opportunity of earning something before their final discharge. . . . I would like to see a night school for those needing or desiring Instruction." Other dutieo prevented my drawing a bill for a parole law, but I hope to have one ready for the next session, and will be glad to receive the co-operation of those who have made a careful study of pro gressive penology. Our penitentiary building is not favorable to the division Into classes of the inmates. The type makea Mr, Ketchum say: "Under present conditions In this state. men are released from the penitentiary spirit I You want the health 1j I that nature meant, the JJ I the strength that nature mea thatatur S ' " The Quality Oafs'" with no frjends, money or occupation, which is only to invite further crime." No man leaves the penitentiary without some money. If he has none of his own the state gives him a small amount. If the .superintendent or warden knows of a place where he can get employment he Is so directed. The state, however, cannot furnish him with frendis. Right here Is the cue for my second proposition: The op portunity which " good people have of saving the discharged man. What, he needs first and most Is Immediate employ ment and environment by good influences. Here Is a wide field for helpful effort. Some have worked in 10 during my ad ministration. Rev. Mr. Crawford,, of Sa lem, has done some good work, as have some Portland people. I will quote again from my report, under "Prisoners' Aid Committee": "The Unitarian Church of Portland, through the Christian Union, the benevolent arm of the church, has organized a prisoners' aid committee, of which the Hon. Charles J. Schnabel Is chairman. Its main purpose la -to assist worthy discharged convicts to Immediate employment. This Is the most practical thing that can be done for them. It Is hoped that this Is the initiative of a state organization corresponding to the Prisoners' Aid Society of other statee."- This move was started by correspond ence with some people In Portland, and was productive of good results. Since the departure of Dr.' Lord the work has slackened and the plan has not been per fected. Tho- field is now open to any and all denominations and to altruistic peo ple whether in organizations or not. Sys tematic and coherent effort is necessary. Desultory talk and good suggestions ac complish little. There must bo. organiza tion and persistent work. (A. prisoners' aid society should include several cities and the corresponding sec retary should be kept "posted as to pos sible openings for employment. He should be Informed of the coming discharges of convicts from the prison. What the doctor says about better moral Instruction at the prison is all right, but what will It avail if the convict finds neither friends nor employment when his term expires? For a starter let Portland and Salem organize. The Winter Is coming. Such assistance Is needed very much more then than during the Summer. Let Dr. Ketchum and other good people ask themselves the question, What can we do? Shall we befriend he poor man leaving the place of his Incarceration? Shall we do what is within our power? It is a big job to bring penltentarlcs up to the latest ideals:. Saloons will prob ably be in business for some time yet, but a kind and helping hand .can be extended to the erring one who has been "over taken in a fault" and "ye which are spir itual" will have the best opportunity of "restoring such an one" when he emerges Into the clear light of freedom. If the sermon of Dr. Ketcuhm and my humble suggestions anent the same shall bear some fruit, our efforts will not have been In vain. J. D. LEE. MOOSE AND .LOCOMOTIVES. The Usual Result of Their Coming Together. New York Tribune. The spunky and stubborn bull moose has again been defying tne locomoiive in Maine, with the usual disastrous results to the moose. This time a whole moose family was wiped out In about ten sec onds, making-a great waste of big game and a lot of work for the section men. It was on Tuesday last that the .engi neer of a freight train on the Bangor and Aroostook road, as hit locomotive round ed a sharp curve on a down grade, saw on the track a few rods ahead ' three moose a big bull, a cow and a calf. He sounded the whistle, expecting to see the whole family make a break for the woods, but they stood their ground, and the bull, with a 6nort of defiance, braced himself e e mean nature meant Packages only. Kilted for tho combat, swinging his great, ant lered head as, though he expected to loss j the locomotive skyhlgh. The shriek of the whistle sent men scurrying over the tops of the cars, set ting brakes, while the engineer had the brakes on locomotive and tender clamped up so tightly that the "wheels were slid ing and smoking over the rails. The speed of the train and Its momentum were too great, however, to be overcome In the short distance, and down swept the fast freight upon the heroic moose family. There was a crash and a crunching under the wheels, while blood spattered oyer the boiler head, and fragments of. moose went whirling through the air. When, a few rods further on, the train was brought to a stop It was found that all three of the moose had been killed, the carcasses of the cow and the calf being thrown some distance from the track, while the carcass of the bull had been ground under the wheels. At, the next station the section boss was in formed, and a crew was sent back to bury the moose family. The men said that the bull was a monster one of the largest ever seen along the line of the Aroostook road. A few days ago a train on the Inter colonial Railway ran a race with a big moose which was promenading the track; near Dalhousie Junction. The moose ran for half a mile or more at surprising speed, and then, finding that the footing was bad on the ties; left the track and ran along in the ditch. Here the animal tried to jump a high wire fence, but stuck half way over and hung there while the train came, up. One of the passengers says that the moose looked puzzled and a&hamed when the train passed him. With the Peace Boards SHAMOKIN, Pa., Nov. 1.
