Special Dispatch to Taz Evzxrne 87ar. New Haven, Coxy., Nov. 1.—The first demo- cratic canvass of the state worthy of much credence was completed to-day, and gives Cleveland a plurality of 2,000. There are well-posted democrats who think 4,000 a rea- sonable claim on their part, but the esti- mate of 2,000 is based on @ conservative consideration of the various complications involved, The republicans claim the state for Harrison by from 2,500 to 8,000, basing their estimate on the belief that the prohibitionists will not poll over 3,000 votes. e prohibition league of the state expects that will get 6.600 in Connecticut and that Hiram Camp, pro- hibition candidate for governor, will get 10,000 votes. The betting here is even as to the re- sult in Connecticut, odds being occasionally given in favor of Harrison. ———— AN EXPLOSION OF HOT METAL. Four Men Burned and Mangled, Two of Them Fatally. Prrtssvre, Nov. 1.—Shortly before noon to- , | day an explosion of hot metal occurred at the . | Sable Iron Works of Zug & Co., on 13th street, killing a workman, George Smith, aged _twen- ty-nine years, and seriously burning Joseph Klein, aged fifty years; his son, aged about fif- teen years, and John Zutro, aged twenty-seven years. The elder Klein is so ly injured that he will die. The men were employed the furnace department and were engaged in pouring the molten metal into a bu or car when it was acddenteie upset and the hot iron ran into a puddle of water. A terrific explosion followed, demolishing the furnace and a por- tion of the mill and scattering the metal over the men. George Smith was horribly burned about the head and chest and one arm torn from the body. He died almost instantly. The others were also frightfully burned, but all will recover except Klein, who isin a bf critical condition. ‘The damage to the will not exceed $1,000. peti a eee A New York Banker Missing.

A New York democrat who is very earnest in his support of this administration, and has the utmost confidence in Mr. Cleveland, said toa Sraz reporter that he was convinced that the trading would be much more extensive than the national committee would permit them- selves to think possible.

Perfect Weather and Interesting Races. If the National Jockey Club was not fortu- nate during the first week of the races in the weather it certainly has been in the second week. The weather to-day was simply perfect. There was light breeze, but the sun was so warm that very few persons wore overcoats, The track, while not exactly fast, was in splen- did condition, and good racing was expected. As the club has warned several owners that put- ting horses in races for work in the future will be sufficient cause for ruling them off, it is quite probable that every horse entered here- after will try to win. While the attendance was very large to-day it was not so great as that of yesterday, the probable reason being that there was no steeplechase on the card. To-morrow the last steeplechase of the meeting will be run. There is some talk of a hurdle race for Satur- day. The firstrace was for three-quarters of a mile P roams iy ter hie (Covin ‘ on, 60 (Freeman); Blue Wing. 16 (Ha ¢ ; Blue Wing lay- Goodole); Telie Doe, 115 ; ttlefield); Leo H., 103 ‘aral); Sam Harper, 118 (Taylor); Winona, 105 (Newmeyer.)

A and Cartoon in up the rear. the stretch, A BOMB WAS THROWN. An in Garde: Explosion x Convent 2 BOMB FOUND THIS MORNING IN THE GROUNDS A GENERAL BELIEF THAT IT WAS A HALLOW- ‘When the good sisters of the Academy of the Visitation, on Connecticut avenue, were saying their offices last night, just before retiring, they were startled bys loud explosion. The window frames were rattled, and some of the ‘sisters, who were looking to- ward the windows, saw a fish of light. The sisters, however, could not learn the cause of the explosion and retired. About 10:90 policeman pulled the bell and aroused the sis- ters. He said that he understood the ‘“‘gun” that had been fired some time ago had been fired in the convent garden. He wanted to go in and investigate. The sisters demurred at having the police- man, who was Officer Reedy, going in alone. HUNTING FOR THE GUN. 8o Mr. J. W. Drew, the druggist on the oppo- site corner, was sent for to chaperone the police- man. Mr. Drew and the officer, together with Samuel Walker, the engineer employed at the academy, were admitted to the grounds in the rear of the building. With a lantern they ex- plored the place, but found nothing. The academy grounds cover the whole square be- tween 17th street, Connecticut avenue, L street and De Sales street. FINDING THE BOMB. The policeman was not entirely satisfied. This morning when some of the pupils were walking in the grounds they made a discovery in the northeast corner which caused quite a sensation. It was the remains of 6 rudely-constracted bomb frac- tured an explosion. The engineer. Samuel Walker, looked upon this ina v. serious way, but the mother superior it only as the result of a practical joke. This oon Dr. Rauterburg visited the convent, and incourse of conversation the mother superior mentioned to him the excitement —— by the explosion and the finding of the REPORTED TO THE POLICE. Dr. Rauterburg looked at the remains of the bomb and became quite serious, He said that ifitwere dynamite it was enough to have wrecked the building. Dr. Rauterburg posted off to a police station and re) rted the fects as he had learned them. The result of his act was that a Star reporter was seen pulling at the bell in the convent vestibule and waiting for the little wicket in the door to fly open. Presently this wicket opened and the face of a nun appeared. Her eyes opened slightly when ag = reporter asked fer information about mb. WHAT I8 SAID AT THE COXVENT. She showed the visitor into a waiting room and presently the mother superior appeared with an attendant sister on the other side of the lattice that itioned off one end of the room, Themothersuperior’s kindly face looked a little troubled when the reporter said that he was after information for the newspapers. “I wish this could be omitted,” she said, ‘I really do not think there is ead to be alarmed about. Our engineer, Samuel, wanted to alarm us about it.” Then the mother superior smiled merrily, as she re- called Samuel,s agitation, “I know of no one,” she said, “who could have any motive in at- oe to injure us or our building. It is my belief that it was simply a w-e’en prank of some boys,” WHERE THE BOMB WAS FOUXD, “Tf any one had intended to injure our build- ing,” said the sister, ‘they could have thrown the bomb just as easi into the doorway or near the building, As it was it was thrown into the garden at the furthest point from the building. Where was it found? Oh, it was in the extreme northwest of thi t the corner of 17th and pipe was found about 10 or 15 feet from the There was an in- dentation of the ground where it had fallen.” THE EXPLODED BOMB. Here the Mother Superior dispatched the sis- ter who was with her to bring the exploded bomb. The sister brought in a piece of iron pipe about 2 feet sor Leet 2 inches in di- ameter. It had been burst by the explosion, 80 that for a distance of about 15 inches in the center it was broken open and flattened out. With the bomb was found a heap of per and clothes with which the bomb had been packed and a wooden n plug, that had closed up one end of the bomb. The sister passed the bomb out through a turnstile arrangement in the lattice, and the reporter inspected it. While he was doing this Detect- ive Wheeler arrived from police headquarters, The rags and paper that had been used as wad- eee were partially burned, and there was a smell of J el taka about them. The detective officér, after hearing the statements of the sister was inclined to agree with the Mother Superior that the bomb was a joke. He thought the boys who had de it were afraid to explode it on the street for fear of hurting some one and had thrown it over the convent wall, which is pay eight feet high. “Mr, Drew said,” remarked the Mother Su- rior, ‘that it sounded like a yonng cannon. fe said, too,” and her eyes twinkled merrily, “that we will be likely to hear & good. many noises like that until after election.” STATEMENTS OF THE POLICE. Lieutenant Guy, of the third police station, in whose precinct the academy is situated, said toa Stag reporter this afternoon that he had heard nothing of the reported explosion; that last evening a lady abicedl the station and re- ported that 9 had received infor- mation that a of boys were going to blow up an outhouse on a lot on New Hampshire avenue between M and H harieedes cs nokited nee oe for the an vent carry- ing pear es plan if Die Or arrest them if they made any such attempt. He said that so far ashe knew the officers had not reported an explosion. Officer Re ve, who was on the New Hamp- shire avenue beat, met a of whom he thought were those complained of, and he warned them against using any explosives, and threatened them with arrest, boys then left that neighborhood and started toward Connec- ticut avenue. The police think they became frightened when eeaatenel by icer Red- grave, and that they threw the explosive over the academy wall. ———_————— AN AmIcaBLE ADJUSTMENT.
