WASHINGTON, D. C-, March 31.
The story of the long, hard fought
campaign to rid San Francisco of its
recent epidemic of bubonic plague is
told in an interesting report of the
marine hospital service. Nearly one
million rats were killed; nearly 100,
000 rats were examined and of this
number more than 300 carried fleas
which were infected with the disease;
there were 2796 steamships disinfect
ed, requiring the use of 620,000 pounds
of sulphur and 4342 gallons of alco
hol; S320 house were disinfected;
1680 suspected cases examined and
3973 inspections of the dead to deter
mine whether they had died of the
plague. Up to June 30, 1908, there
were 159 cases of plague and 77
deaths.

NEW YORK, March 31. -A heavy
charge of dynamite said to have been
placed by disaffected laborers recent
ly employed in the construction of a
steel viaduct over the Hoboken via
duct, was exploded with a tremend
ous crash at 3:15 this morning, wreck
ing one of the supporting pillars of
the structure and shattering every
winaow in tne neignDornooa tor a
radius of a quarter of a mile.
A number of persons are known to
have been cut by flying glass and fal-
ing plaster, but as yet no word has
been received of any fatalities.
The rumble of the explosion was l
heard throughout Manhattan, and far
into the Long Island suburbs and for
hours the various police stations were
busy answering questions as to the I
nature of the explosion and its where-
bouts.
As soon as the source of the de
tonation had been proved the reserves
from the Hoboken police stations
were sent to the scene as were a
number of ambulances from various
hospitals.
The neighborhood of Willow Aven
ue, where the explosion took place,
was thrown into a panic and scantily
dressed men and women rushed into
i the streets in terror. An investiga-,
tion showed that the charges of dyna-,
mite had been placed at the base of
one of the steel upright supports and
that the force of the explosive had
completely torn it from its concrete
foundation.
It is said that recently there had
been minor troubles among the work
men employed in the construction of
the viaduct and that the outrage may
have been perpetrated by some of the .
malcontents in revenge for a fancied
wrong. SEATTLE, March 31. Rear Ad
