mited about a mile west of the
Northorn Pacific station at .1:17
o'clock. The explosion caused the
first or helper engine to. leae the
rails, but It plowed along for a few
hundred feel without turning over
The second engine craahed Into the
bank south of the track a few ear
lengths from where the explosion
occurred.
Every person on the trsla has
been accounted for excepting Engi
neer Iluseey, of the eecoud engine,
who Is supposed to be burled under
his locomotive. Carl Mange, who
was riding on the blind baggage,
had to be taken from the msas of
timbers under which he was burled.
His arm and leg were broken.
Fireman George Ehle. of the second
engine, was badly scalded.
itoth were hurried to the hospital
In the police patrol, which wss at
the final arrangement of bow and other
adornment. Fluttering flags, navy pen
nant and streamers, an 1 Rear Admiral

the National colors, and flags waving
from white poles 50 feet high, every PHI
feet, one large and a cluster of five
smaller flairs flvini? from eseh one and
terminating in the huge red, white and
blue shield on the tall ferry tower. On
each side of the tower, stretched on
long wire cables, are the words, "Wel
come to the Atlantic Fleet." in the
kaleidoscopic colors of the international
nary signal code flags and pennants,
whiie on Telegraph Hill the word
"Welcome" stands in letter 15 feet

and Fireman Ehle, Is l)tug on Its
side south of the track.
The mall car, which was right be
hind It, was burled on Us aide and
badly wrecked. A cold storage fish
car was next to the mill r.ir, and It
wan smashed Into ktudlUig wood.
Following the fish car was the ex
press citr. Only the front trucks of
tho express car left the rails. The
baggage car also remained on the
track.
The general theory of the explo
sion Is thhl the dynamite was placed
directly ou the mils, but II Is Impos
sible to say whether a time fuse or
some sort of perrusMlon cup was at
saw the flash isgroc It came from the
south aide of the track.
Tho dynamiting Is believed by the
officers to be the work of some hobo
seeking revenge, fur being ejected

ineaodeeeent lights run on both sides of
the principal streets snd prominent
buildings are outlined in electric bulbs,
furnishing at night a most magnificent
illumination.
It is estimated thst there will be be
tween 700,000 and HOO.OOO people in San
Francisco on the day that the fleet ar
rives. The suburban cities adjacent to
the buy and towns within a radius of
50 miles will practically be depopulated,
and will contribute 200.000, while the
railrosd eompasiee estimate that they
will bring at least 1.10.000 from points
beyond a far east as Omaha, and from
British Columbia on the north, to the
International boundary on the south.
