I, A. Rickard and John Langdon, of Milton Rogers & Son's shop, started yes. terday forn trip eastward, They were accompanied to the transfer depot by a number of the shop men, who saw them off in soyal style. DMessrs Ri kanl and . Langdon have hoth been valued employes fi time by Mr. R Aor wor rs and theie _popularity among their fellow workmen was fully demonstrated by thoVoys yest s+ day, Beautifiors: THE WRECK, At the immediate point of the ex- plosion were four cars, two oil cars, the other two loaded with stationary engines. These were demolished and sct on fire. Another oil car ignited from these and was likewise destroyed. Either way in all directions, whero tho cars ware standing on the tracks, the most TERRIBLE HAVOC was committed. Seven passenger conches, sixty box-cars and twelve stock-cars were thrown from the tracks, sides blown in and roofs taken off, and all rendered useless. 'The freight house and ice house of the Rock Island company suffered a like fate. Both were disroofed, sides blown in, and as effectually destroyed as if an EARTHQUAKE WAD OPENED under their very foundations. In fact, an earthquake could not have created such terrific and wholesale de- struction. The roof of the round house was entirely gone and its whole eastern wall and the foundations scat- tered to the four winds. The earth dug from the cavernous hole was thrown over much of the debris and formed huge mounds on all sides. The fragments of the exploded cars wore thrown over a radius of a quar- ter of a mile. Car wheels and frag- ments of axles went sailing through tho air for hundreds of yards, and crashed through the roofsof houses and buildings surrounding. The roofs and sidos of the passenger and box cars were found in all directions. One seat from a passenger coach sailed into the air LIKE A ROCKET and came down in a sluggish creck, at least a quarter of a mile from the ex- plosi The cabs, smoke stacks, 1ls and sand domes of engines in the round house were taken off as clean as if cut by a huge knife, and the boilers crushed'in, from which the steam escaped with an angry hiss. When the TERRIBLE EXPLOSION OCCURRED three of the the east bound trains wore still in the depot awaiting orders to start, As the violent shock came been pulled from the ruine, Under a orticn of the ruined house the two injured people were found lying on improvised cots, They proved to be Richard Van Louven, a teamstor, and his little daughter Nellie. Van Lou- ven had a broken arm and his head was badly cut, with fears of a skull frac- ture. Mo also suffered mternal inju- ries. The little girl was cut about the face and body, but no bones are thought to be broken. Asthe crowd were gathering around the sufferers a WAIL WAS JEARD from a woman who came hurriedly through the tall grass and weeds, her hair all disheveled. ‘“My babies are killed,"” she cried as sho stopped at the ruins of a house #till nearer the scene of the explosion. The honse, which was occupied by J. Wallis and his family, was completely flattened, not a stick remaining in its place, and the furniture, bedding and domestic utensile showing from beneath the crushed timbers. Willine hands at once commenced to overhaul the ruins, when the ‘‘babies” came run- ning from the tall grass near the stream below. The little things, a boy and girl, had been frightened so by the terrible shock that they had run into the grass and hidden like partridges, not daring to show them- selves until thoy heard their mother's voice. The scene which followed no one can depicl, A little to the west was another house, ocenpied by Henry O'Dell and family. They had just moved in,and the grief of Mrs. O'Dell over the destruction of her household goods was great. Tho HOUSE WAS STRADDLED, a8 it were, tho uprights being forced out to an obtuse angle with the roof, which had partly fallen in. John Montgomery’s house, across thetrack, was badly demoralized. The entiro sido was blown in and everything in the interior mixed up and broken in a lamentable way. Mrs. Montgomery, an invalid, was so shocked by the ex- plosion that it is not thought she will survive. THE DROVERS' HOTEL, on the street loading to the transfor depot, was severely damaged. The front windows wero entirely shattered out, the bar wpset, and genoral de- struction inflicted within, TWO OTHER BUILDINGS, both dwellings, nearly a quarter of a mile south of the explosion, were shattered and wrecked and everything insido destroyed. All of the huildings south of the round house, in the di- roction of the wind, had their roofs loosened and windows shattered out. A s¢bn as the alarm could be sent to Council Bluffs proper the Rescue Fire company and a steamer came RUSHING TO THE SCENE. A stream was soon put on the flames, which partly subdued them and protected “the ~surronnding car trucks fom burning. While they were valiantly working, the coal oil car next to the burning wreck caught fire. The Ignition was so quick that nobody could give an alarm and almost in an instant UP SHE WENT, high in the air, with a fierce burst of flame that seemed to ‘touch the sky, and a black cloud of smoke. The 6iyo boys and hundreds of others about the spot flattened themselves, with a common impulse, and no ono was burned, although a number were singed by the fierce fire, All crawlod away as {;un they could. So intense was the heat that it was some time before the steamer could again be brought into effective service. UNDER THE RUINS, 1t was reported that an engineer, firoman and wiper wero in the round house when the blow-up took place, Their names could not be ascertained at six o'clock in the evening, nor could it b> definitely determined whether any one was in the crushed building. 1t may be devoutly hoped there was not. WHERE 18 THE OWNER? a number of persons near the ends of the platforms were thrown from their feet, and the earth perceptibly trem- bled. Nearly all of the eastern win- dows and some of the western, in the Transfer hotel were shaken out, the fragments of the 1lass falling among the crowd on the platform, Women screamed, men turned pale, and foran instant every one was transfixed with fright. Then in the eastern distance leaped up flames and black smoke which fairly darkened the sky. Among the crowd who RUSHED TOWARD THE SCENE was a reporter of Tur Beg, ana he was soon on the spot. A few porsons only were there, but soon hundreds came running from all directions. For an hundred yards about the place it was almost impossible to travel, for the brick, timber, iron, piecss and fragments of cars. Four cars were burning vielently, and close by was another londed with coal oil, which was momentarily expected to go up in an explosion or flames, THE BLACK SMOKE tomporarily obscured the roundhouse. ‘When the wind lifted, the demolished pile of brick which stood in the place of the appurently indestructible struc- ture seen ten minutes hefore could hardly be recognized. Engines, dis- mounted and f;unurnlly destroyed, were lying under the mass of crushed tim- bers and iron supports of the roof and buried in the brick and mortar from tho walls. The oflicialy of the Rock Island road arrived with two or three switch ongines, but it was impossible to approach near enough to the wreck to do more than draw out cars standing in the vicinity, THE CROWD TURNED IN and hundreds of willing hands helped to push such of the wrecked coaches a3 could be moved out of the reach of the flames, which now threw out a stifling heat. The warning cry was heard at this moment, “‘Look out for the walls!” Men jumped, somosinto the ditches, some inte the water, and none too luouillur a part of the north- While climbing over the mounds of dirt, and rubbish, which had been ||il«arl up on either side of the immense hole dug by the powarful explosion, Tue Bee reporter found the frag- ments of a Masonic ritual, in manu- acript, which appeared to the uniniti- ated as belonging to the order of the Knights Templara. How it came on top of the fresh upheaved debris, whether the owner had thrown 1t away, a3 he ran from the scene, or whether it was torn from his pocket and he buried beyond sight, are quostions which only the excavation of the ruins can deternune. IN COUNCIL BLUFPS, No sooner had the services been concluded at the park in Council Bluff's than the wholo city was shaken from center to circumference. Every- body was shocked and astounded, In- deed did somo exclaim that the end of all things had come on this saddest of all sad days, Men rushed out of their places of business bewildered and amazed, Tt scemed as if cvery build- ing on Broadway and Main streets was about to tumble to earth, Some belioved that the cily had exper- ienced a TERRIDLE EARTHQUAKE 80 groat was the shock. /A city of mourning was turned intg one of con- sternation and slarm, /Soon huge clouds of smoke were son to arise in the southwestern part of the town, Nearly all the BUSINESS HOUSES on Main street and Aroadway were more or less damnged, Havoe was made of glass fropts, At the store of Iseman & Oo. the whole side was blown out.

THE CAUSE The cause of the explosive is not, at present writing, clearly known. One of the Union Pacific officials atated that two cars of dynamute, la- bled giant powder, were shipped to their yard on the Omaha side of the river, for western transportation; that the U, P. company refused to re- ceive the cars and had retransferred one to the Rock Tsland yard, intend- ing to send the other over last night 1t was reported at the scene of the wreck that an oil car attached to the dynamite car caught fire from a passing engine; that efforts were made to detach it from the explosive car about fifteen minutes before the ex- plosion took place. These efforts be- ing unsuccessful, the employes in the vinity made themselves scarce, and the outward bound trains which ran near the threatening car were warned to delay until it was seen what would happen. It is kupposed that the iron part of the burning oil car fell against the dynamite carand the explosion then ensued S Memorial Servioce, * Tn the absonce of Bishop O'Conner, Father Eoghsh held memorial service inthe cathedral at 9 o'cluck this morn- ing.

Hitcheock, the popular and widely known railroad traveling agent, who arrived in Omaha in 1858, and for many years was a resident of the Gateway City, returned on Satur- day from an extended trip to Austra- lia. Mr. Hitcheock sailed in April last from San Francigco and arrived in Sidney May 7. The pur- pose of his trip was to advertise the American route to K:rope, es- pecially the Pacific Mail steamship company, the Central, Southern and Union Pacific, and the Atchison, To- peka & Santa Fo railroads, The east- ines which are operated in oppo- sition to the American routes are two running from Sidney and Melbourne, via the Suez Canal and Red sea. Mr. Hitcheock’s business therefore took him over a large part of the continent island. He made Sidney his head- quarters, Sidney he found to be a city of about 250,000 inhabitants, alarge per- centage of whom are Americans, All are in business and seemingly prosper- ous. Melbourne is about the same size as Sidney, aund is laid out more as an American city. The streets are unusually wide and straight,being one hundred feet from curb to curh. The buildings in both cities are very good and put up to stay. It seoms almost as if the people who erected them expected an carthquake to take away the island and leave the buildings standing. buildings are as fine as anywhere in the world Hotels there are in abun- dance, and although not as large as those in America, they are scrupu- lously neat and well kept. As a people Mr. Hitcheock eonsid- ers the Australians the most hospit- able he ever met. They have an espe- cial fondness for Americans, and ad- mire American enterprise. On many of the railronds, all of which are operated by the governmert, Ameri- can locomotives are being used and coaches similar to the Pullmans have The government | SPECIAL NOTICES.
