.AGAIN IT EXPLODES
A Second Disaster Occurred Yesterday
. At Santandcr.
TEN KILLED AND THIRTY INJURED
The
Buried Cargo of the Cabo
chicaco Is Struck by Divers,
Many Are Killed. .
Ma-
Madrid, March 21. A dispatch re
ceived from Santander this evening says
that 10 men were killed and 30 were ill
jured by an explosion of dynamite in
the harbor today. The dynamite was in
one of the many cases of explosives
which went down last November with
the wreck of the steamer Cabo Machi
caco. 'Ever since . the steamer was
blown to pieces .divers have worked in
termittently upon the wreck, and have
raised a considerable quantity of mis-
' cellaneous cargo, which ; was brought to
Santander.' Recently thedivers reported
that they were getting near the dynamite,'
but it was supposed that the explosive
had lost its power after so many weeks
in water. Three divers . were down
today when the explosion camf. Ten
men were out in a boat over the spot
where the divers were at work. : Some
50 men were at work at tt(e docks. The
cause of the explosion is not known ex
actly. The report shook Mendez Nunez
street, which skirts the quay, along its
whole length. . The small boat just off
the spot was splintered and seven
men were killed. The three divers
also were killed, and thirty nien
along the Quay were injured 'seriously.
The mangled and blackened corpses of
the dead were scattered all . along the
quay, and the scene was one that - defied
description. Among the dead are Don
Manuel de Lttpena, provincial governor,
and a number of other officials.
A FURTHER CASUALTY.
Just as the boat blew up, a railway
train arrived at the station, a consider
able distance from the scene of the ex
plosion. This train was completely
wrecked, set on fire, and most of its
passengers burned to death. .

Sunday.
Mabsillox, O., March 20. The lead'
era of the Coxey army estimate that
1,000 men will be in line when the start

of the vags. Saturday and Sunday will
be big days in Massilbn. Excursion
trains will be run from a score of points,
and it is expected that 5,000 strangers,
many of whom will no doubt join the
army at the start, of its march, will be
here. Last night Coxey received a tele
gran from A. P. York of Indianapolis
stating that 1,100 men were about to
leave that city to join the army.

NEWS NOTES.
Ulan Pollard' Counsel Suddenly End
' Their Testimony. .
Washington, March 21. Miss Pollard
was on the stand for a time today in
her case against Breckinridge, but noth
ing of special interest was brought out
by an additional cross-examination.
Then the prosecution suddenly an
nounced the end of its inquisition) which
had lasted over two days. Counsel for
Miss Pollard was so well satisfied with
the impression she bad made that they
not only declined to ask her a single
question to strengthen any point of the
evidence, but announced they rested
their case there. This was done in
spite of the fact that they had a number
of additional witnesses and affidavits.
Miss Pollard at once left the courtroom, i
showing evidence in the' pallor of her
countenance of the strain under which
she had been laboring.
After counsel for defense had retired
for consultation and returned, Colonel
John T.. Shelby of Lexington, Ky.,
Breckinridge's law partner, proceeded
to outline the defense. He said : "I
am authorized by the defendant to eay,
and it will be corroborated by his sol
emn oath, that he did not seduce her;
that it was never: made' known to -him
she ever had any children by him until
the filing of this suit last August, nor
did be, tinder any circumstances, make
any. promise of marriage to her." The
defense did not intend to cobdone what
ever was wrong in the relations of the
two, and it was only by the truth the
defendant wanted to be judged. Con
tinuing, counsel declared that Miss Pol
lard bad accosted defendant on the train
before he ever knew hertold him how
her father admired John . C. Breckin
ridge and named her for him. ' Some
weeks later he received a letter from her
asking advice as. to her relations with
Rhodes, which he answered, giving her
the law in the. case; Later she asked
him to come to the seminary, and fol
lowed it with another, to neither of
which be responded. Being in Cincin
nati one day on other business, he went
to see tier, and found her a woman of 20
or ai, as wouia do sbown, not a mere
schoolgirl. She admitted illicit rela
tions with Rhodes, and asked him to
take her to an entertainment in the
evening, herself suggesting a closed car
riage. In the course of the ride illicit
relations were established", not by seduc
tion, but in a way which occurs when a
woman is not averse to such things.
Governor Waite's New Scheme.
Denver, March 21. The Times will
say this afternoon that Governor Waite
has formed a plan to storm the city hall
on the night the decision of the supreme
court is rendered in the matter of his
police' and fire appointees, in case the
decision is -against him. He suspects
the loyalty of the militia and has caused
State Game "Warden Ocotte to swear in
1,000 deputies, who will' be furnished
with state arms and make the assault,
The governor's opponents are fully ad
vised of these preparations, and say they
have made every preparation for de
fense. ' - . '
TtO, the Poor Indian. -
Goldkndalk, March 20.--The Cala
wash Indians, near Tnm Water, opposite
Celilo,feel that th6y are being robbed of
their fishing rights. It seems some
white men have recently taken up some
fishing grounds through some loop-hole
in the law." It is very evident that Uncle
Sam intended these grounds to be' pre
served for the poor Indian. The Indians
now feel sorely grieved to be deprived
of what their forefathers left them; If
their tribe was not so -few in number,
they perhaps would become hostile.

life and a graphic account of ber infatu
ation and relations 'for - ten years with
Breckinridge.

of Slavic, descent, were Luterans and
noble. - His father, a lawyer, gave his
children a liberal education. In honor

Congressional Notes. -
The New York chamber of commerce
adopted a unanimous resolution against
the seignoirage bill.
. Senator. Peffer favorably reported the
bill of Senator Mitchell of Oregon for
the establishment of five silk experiment
stations.
Senator Peffer'a- bill to establish an
electrical experiment station, to . deter
mine if electricity can be applied as
motive power to farm machinery will
receive favorable consideration.
The river and harbor bill, when re
ported, will show some changes affect
ing Pacific coast rivers and harbors
since the first statement was telegraphed.
What changes these are ,will probably
be in the nature of increases. ;
' Hermann says that the river and har
bor committee has positively decided
not to allow "any new projects in the
present bill, and nothing can be dona
in the house for The Dalles improve
ment. The senators may .be able to
have it put in. .'.-
' A document signed by over fifty of the
most prominent bankers of Boston has
been forwarded to President Cleveland,
urging the necessity of refusing to sign
the seigniorage bill, stating that it will
ruin the banking business, create dis
trust, and, in a measure, ruin the finan
cial standing of the country. '
