TERRIFIC BOILER EXPLOSION. Three Persons Killed, Six Wounded and One Missing. ‘Zhe Boiler Blown One Hundred and Fifty Wards. An explosion of a most frightful nature occurred in the three story brick building No, 258 Weat Twenty- eigbth street, near Eighth avenue, yesterday afternoon, ‘The premises above mentioned were occupied by Abram R. Welch as a turning and scroll sawing establishment, ‘and extends through the entire block from Twenty-sev- enth to Twenty-cighth street, In the centre of the premises, between the buliding fronting on Twenty-sev- enth and that facing Twenty-eighth street, there was a ‘space of about filteen feet, a part of which was covered bya wooden roof, Under this roof and in asort of Yault or sub-cellar stood an upright boiler and stationary engine, used in driving the macbinery of the establish- ment, About three o'clock yesterday afternoon this boiler exploded with a tremendous re- port, hurling bricks, timbers and rubbish high into the air and shaking the adjacent buildings to their foundations, About two-thirds of the boiler—a portion of about fifteen feet in length and four or five feet in @iameter—was thrown in an oblique, westorly direction, and crossed Eighth avenue at an altitude of about one hundred and fifty feet, When immediately over the Fesidevce of S, Hausman, No. 308 West Twenty-eighth treet, the monster projectile descended with fearful velocity, and striking on the rear roof of the building Passed through every floor of the house, resting finally in the basement kitchen. The house No. 308 is & well constructed brown stone front build ing, of three stories in height, standing on the southerly side of the street, The shop from which the boiler commenced its ‘errific flight is also situated on the south side of Twenty-eighth street, the former building being tocated about five houses west of Eighth avenue and the lauer about six or seven doors east of the avenue. The portion of the boiler which en- tered the premises of Mr. Hausman is estimated as Weighing about five tons, and is tubular or cylindrical in form. It will be seen, therefore, that this immense Mass of motal thust have traversed a distance of about one hundred yards in an air line from the turner’s shop to the place where it fell, crossing Eighth avenue in its course. In passing through the Hausman building 1t made a clean swoep of evory-. ‘thing from the roof to the basement, making a sort of well or batchway down through the building of about twelve or fifieen feet in diameter, The entire southerly wailof the premises was demolished, and the heavy ‘imbers of the floors wrenched off or snapped in twain as though they were plasterer’s la:hs, The boiler is now -standing on one end, as it descended through the build- ing, destroying bedrooms and parlors, with about six feet of its length in the back parlor on the firat floor, the lower end resting im the base- ment. In the rear room on the secon’ floor at the time of its descent were, Mary Dowling, the thambermaid in Mr, Hausman’s family, Mary Weiber- abl, wet nurse, Dora Hausman, aged twelvo years, and her infant brother Harry, aged three months, These four persons were carried down with the avalanche of jébris to the parlor floor, and littls Dora was taken out, |, from among the ruins, Mary Dowling was found, after much~ dificulty,-benesth the rubbish, and ‘Waa conveyed, frightfully injured, to the Jew’s hospital, on Twenty-eighth street, Mary Weiber- gzabl went through with. the boiler to the kitchen and crawled from beneath the splintered beams, bricks and mortar, severely cut and braized, but without any serious injury, The infant was found be- tween seven and eight o’clock, with its head smashed in, No other persons were in the house at the time, ‘Mr. Hausman, who carries on business in Reade street, Deing at the time in his store, and Mre. Housman being Out shopping. A large plate or cap of the boiler forced fte way through the roof of the house opposite that of ‘Mr. Housman, but fortunately without damage to life or Himb of the occupante, ‘The rear portion of the Hausman premises was {totally destroyed, and the parlors filled with mounds of bricks, broken rafters, planks, Jaths and mortar, Returning to the original scene of the disaster, an awful wreck presented itself. The rear wall of the ‘Duilding, occupied asa scroll sawing shop,jfacing on ‘Twenty-eignth street, was reduced to s mass of rubbish, ‘and the back wall of the house fronting on Twenty-sev- enth street was in a similar condition. A lerge portion of the roof was suspended like a huge wing over the chasm beneath, and the heavy roof of the shed which sheltered the boiler and engine hung like a twisted rag above the unsightly mounds of débris that bad fallen into the inciosure, filling up the vauit or cellar in which the Boiler had stood, The engineer and fireman are both Delieved to bave been near the boiler at the time of its explosion, e body of the latter was found in a re- mote part of the cellar, beneath the rubbish, When taken out he was quite dead. At half-past ten o’clock last nixht the ineer bad not been found, though almost tue entire mon, a large number of whom were for hours industri- ously employed: n the work. SCENES IN TUR VICINITY, Most of the workmen employed in the factory were residents of the immediate locality of the catastrophe, neigubors became apprisea of the oveurrence a tremendous crowd assembled about the Duilding. The scones wero heartronding in the extreme, as many persons in tue throng were relatives ot those nown to have been ork in the shop. Wives, brothers ‘and -isters clamored about the entrances on both sireet and enesvored to force their way through the d ore an gateway leating to the interior of the building, in queet of those whom they, in a large number of in-tences, too truly aptic:paiod might be included among tho kiiied or wounded.

OBITUARY. Dr. Louis Desire Veron, of Paris. The death of this celebrated French physician and publicist occurred at Paris on yesterday, as ane nounced by a cable telegram to the Heratp, The de- ceased was born in Paris, on the 6th of April, 1798, and was therefore in the sevontieth year of his ago at the time of. his death, He studied medicine and re- ocived his diploma in 1823, becoming a prominent mem- ber of his profession in a very short time. In 1828 ho became a journalist, and was subsequently connected with eaveral Paris journals, his political articles and theatrical feuilletons atiracting considerable «tention, Ho was afterwards (about 1840) appointed one f the rectors oi the Wares and retained this position until he became one of the proprietors of the Cunstilutionnel, After the revolution in 1848 he sold out this paper and took an active part in politics, being elested a member of the Corps Legislatif. M. Véron’s rary works are numerous, and have gained for their author considerable reputation, John L. Helm, Governor of Kentucky. By atelogram published in the Herap of yesterday morning wo are informed of thedeath of the Hon, John L. Helm, recently elected Governor of Kentucky, and Inaugurated in that. position at Elizabethtown on this day one week ago. The deceased was a native of Ken- tacky, and was of respectable parentage, He was born during the early part of the present century, and although not an old man had passed the prime of his life. He received an excellent education, and at an early age entered into politics as a member of the whig organization, which was then the dominant political party of bis State. A warm admirer of the tenets of Henry Clay, he soon arose into prominence, and although he never attained any position of emi- nence prior to his recent election, his well known abilities had made him very pomulee. with those of his own. political views, and even his opponents were won by hie address and by tbe ab- sence of all personalities in his public speeches, er the secession excitement in the winter of 1860-" Governor Helm directed all bis influence in aid of and Union. Although himeelf believing in the doctrine of secession, a3 one of the reserved righta of the States, he opposed its exercise, as impolitic and umnecessary. He bitterly opposed. the cocr- cive policy of Mr, Lincoln's admin jon and was, if we recollect aright, {imprisoned by military commanders on one or two occasions during the war. That his eympathies wero with the South throughout the struggle there iano doubt. A son of his entered the rebel army, and,.after winning tally Eited. “After the repaiion sae ‘suppressed and ui ‘ er the ry rn an Kentacky was relteved of Wercdt law, Governor Helm took an active and foremost part im reorganizing the democratic party in his State. The severe military rule of four years had demoralized the conservatives to such an extent that at the last election prior to the close of the war they succeeded ia electing their candidate by barely-two hundred mayority, The efforts of the d ceased were crowned with success, and within a tew months Kentucky gave a democratic majority oi nearly 38,000, At the meeting of the democratic convention jast spring for the purpose of nominating Siate officers, er of candidate for Governor was unanimously tendered to Mr. Helm. He accepted the nomination, and hn mediately commenced stumping the State; for, altbough certain of election, his desire was to poll as largo & vote as possible, so that Kentucky should, as he expressed it, emphatically repudiate the negro supremacy designs of tho radicals. At the election he received 90,225 votes, against 33,939 cast for Col. S M. Barnes, the radical candidate, and 13,107 given to William B, Kinkhead, the candidate of the conservative democrats, or third party. During the last daya of the canvass Governor Helm was taken ill, There is no doubt that he had over exerted himsolf d brought on the sickn which finally carr’ 2 of. Only one week ago this day he was inaugurated at 8 residence in Elizabethtown, bis sickness having made it dangerous to travel to Frankfort, the State capi- tal, Even then fears were entertaived that he would never leave his bed alive, but as it was deemed prudent to administer the oaib of office to all the newly elected officers, the retiring Governor, Bramlette, visited Etiza- betbiown for that express purpose. Aside of his politi- cal opinions Governor Helm was a most estimable gentie- man, Whose death -will bo deeply regretted by th bumerous friends he possessed, JOHN W.

The gigantic revenue ‘frauds which from time to time Dave been coming to hght in the Third district have kept certain official circles im this city and Brooklyn in @ constant state of agitation. The indications of another dénowement was published exclusively in our Washing- ton correspondence which appeared in last Saturday's issue of the Henatp, Since then there bas been little elge but “bubble, bubble, ‘toll and trouble; bus it was only yesterday that the ramors assumed the shape of stern facts, so far as im- plications are concerned, Frauis of a very extensive character wore discovered during the term of Henry ©, Bowen's) management of the Third district, which extended over the terms of Mesers, Pratt and McLaughlin, and for complicity in which Messrs, T. C. Tilton, F. Tappan and Joon Devlin are now under indictmont and awaiting trial, Foremost among those whom it is alleged bave been discoveredjin flagrante dilictu stands the name of COLLECTOR 7, ¢, CALLICOTT, who, it will be remembered, received the democratic nomination, and was elected to represent the Third district in the Assembly, The story is current that he disposed of the speakership of that body to the repub- licans, a fow years since, for a slight consideration, Through the endorsement of Horace Greeley and several others of the leading republicans, he sought a re-election during the follow- ing year, but was defeated, This disappoint. ment was, however, greatly smoothed over in a manner most mollifying to the feelings of politicians of even More than usually exacting natures, This end was effected by Mr. Callicott’s appointment as government , Obtained the’ position, responsible no. legs than lucrative, of collector of internal revenue, It was confidently hoped that matters would progress quietly aud in good faitn so soon as Mr, Callieott entered upon his official ‘duties, For a time ali went well; but soon rumors of a threatening character were set afloat, Theso at length assumed so serious and grave an aspect that it was deemed advisable by the authorities to institute an investigation into the affairs of the collector and his deputy, which, however, failed to establish any fact, pro or con, It would seem this state of affairs only added fresh fuel to the flames, for the rumors referred to spread with increased force untii ut last Dis- trict Attorney Tracey considered it his duty to take steps ia the matter which would sooner or later re- sultin charges being preferred against the cojlector personally, or hig subordinates, The result was, that a CHARGE OF FRAUD ‘was soon made out against Mr, Callicott and othera, This set forth that some 211 barrels of whiskey which wére ordered to be stored in Wilson's wareliouse had in some unaccountable manner dlsappenrod—at least the liquor portion—barrels filled with water remaining in their stead. At a meeting of the Motropolitan Revenue Board Mr. Callicott was cited to appear, Here he was con- fronted by Mr. Tracey with several aflilavits mado vy Messrs. Tracey, Cocheu and Fletchor—the tro Inst named are inspectors. After presenting tho charge Mr. Tracey promptiy urged the arrest of Mr. Cualiicott, which, notwithstanding an able defence of bimself and deputy made by the collector, was, after @ lengthy consideration, duly ordered to be made out, The warraut was tssued by Coinmissioner Neston, of Brooklyn, during the middle of last week, butit was not handed over tothe United States Marshal for service until Saturday, Besides Theophiins (, Callicott, collec: tor, and Jonn §. Allen, deputy coliector, a number of others have alzo been {mpiteated aod are mentioned in the arrest warrant, As Mr. Cailicott left bis hotel in Brooklyn on Saturday morning, taking with bim all bis papers, it 18 considered probable that, having become cognizant of the turn affairs bad takev, he has pro- ceeded to Washington, with a view of ‘laying a full statement of the whole matter before the government. THE ARREST OF DEPUTY COLLECTOR ALLEN ‘was effected yesterday morning between ten and eleven o'clock. baad essere in company with Depaty M: shal James W, Higgins, to tho office of Commissioner Newton, where bail was fixed at $50,000, aud timo civen until to morrow to furnish the proper sureties for that amount, Those of the other parties alleged to be im- licated—Amgustus Dayton, ttorckeeper; Alexander Sunningbam and Louis Fancher—are also beld in the sum of $20,000 each. It tg but jnst to state that throughout the entire case both Mr. Callicott and his deputy have evinced the ut- most coolness in the matter, and seemingly are fully confident of coming through the ordeal saas reproche.
