There was no shock | and no noise; no men were killed or in- jured and very little property was de-| stroyed; but in the space of a few seconds | $580,000 worth of powder had eaten itself | up and the people in the town of Vallejo, | not 2 half mile across the strait, had not been jarred into a knowledge of what had happened. No one knows what caused the explo- | sion. It is attributed to gases which | formed from the powder and was ignited | in one of the mysterious ways that make | explosions so much of a puzzle. There| was a watchman on duty, but he was not | near enough to the scene to know of | what happened just before the powder | ignited, and while a board of officers will | be appointed to investigate, it is not prob- | able that any explanation will be found. The remarkable feature of the explo- | sion is the small damage done. The new smokeless powder used by the navy is a | composition in which guncotton figures | largely, and the composition is one hav- ing tremendous power when ignited un-| der certain conditions. There were other | conditions present to-day, however, f xas to the magazine which the powde: stored. The | of the magazine were of brick and | 00f was a light one of metal. When the powder was ignited it tore the roof from the walls and sent the fragments | fiying just as a cycione might have donme, and then the powder burned itself out without doing any more damage.

Buildings on the island would have been wrecked, the whole powder station demolished and town of Vallejo shaken as bty an earthquake. The fire alarm was quickly turned in from the Alert, the Philadelphia, the Independence and the marine barracks poured hundreds of men, all organized into fire brigades and ready for duty. Commander Thomas Phelps, commander of the Alert, took charge of the fire bri- gade and hg soon had the men at work controlling the flames that were consum- ing what was left of the magazife and the grass on the hiliside near it. They were fearful that the blaze would spread to the black powder magazine and knowl- edge of what would happen did it get that far lent strength to their energy. The yard tug Unadilla and a corps of goen from the department of yards and docks assisted and within a few hours the fire was quenched. An e of the explosion says the column of vapor stood up from the site of the magazine like a tremendous balloon, and, as he stood on the Vallejo side of the channel, he could see flashes +f flame cutting through the column from base to crest. He felt no shock and heard no noise, and he believes he was led to look in the direction of the maga- zine by the first flash of the explosion. That the explosion occurred so early in the morning accounts for the fact that there were no lives lost. After 8 o’clock from fifteen to twenty men are continu- ally at work in the vicinity of the maga- | zine and sometimes inside of it. Had the explosion been delayed two hours and a half it is certain that some of these men would have been killed. Explosion a Peculiar One.

YOSEMITE, June 5.—The sensation that was expected to break at the annual meeting of the Yosemite Valley Commis- sioners did not materialize to-night. The old officials were re-elected without op- position and the charges that have been talked about sgainst Guardian John F. Stevens were not presented. For several days it hgs been open gos- sip that W. F. Lyons, who resides at the Eleven Mile Station, would prefer charges of a very serious nature against Guardian John F. Stevens. So far did it go that Lyons left his pesition two days ago and came into the Yosemite Valle; so as to be before the Commissioners. that he would prefer written charges against Stevens, affecting the attitude of the guardian toward the wife of the man who was making the complaint. Lyons told nearly everybody in the Yosemite Valley that he intended to bring an accusation of im- morality against the guardian and that he would appear before the Commission- ers himself in support of it. But as the meeting of the Commissioners drew near Lyons' attitude changed. The first session of the commission was held th& morning. Commissioner Frank H. Short_of Fresno asked that the elec- tion of officers go over until evening, giv- ing as his reason that certain matters “which might cause trouble” eould prob- ably be disposed of if the election were the handling of the powder and the ar- rangement of the magazine and no chances are taken with the deadly stuff. No iron is allowed on floor or on walls, no iron tools are permitted, and when a hamm is necessary a copper one or a malle* is used n the men who enter must put on long robes and change their shoes for wooden sandals. All these pre- cautions are enforced in the magazines of the navy on shore as well as on ship- board, and powder is handled as tenderly as Venetian glass. The explosion was a peculiar one in many ways. Smokeless powder may be ited in the open air and it will burn wly with a fizz and a sputter, when confined even in the slightest de- gree it bur all restraint and thunders through everything in its way. It was believed that the flimsy roof over the magazine might cause pressure enough to madden the forces of the burning pow- der, but it seems it did mot. The roof was made as flimsy as possible for just at purpose, but the powder was not be- leved to be as tame as it was. It simply lifted the roof and then burned between Ahe walls, slowly for powder, but rapidly enough to finish the job it was at. The cloud that arose after the explosion was not smoke, but a thin vapor. and it took the form of smoke because there was so much of it. It is not often that 3% tons of powder are allowed to burn all at once. The vapor disappeared in a few moments and the magazine walls and some burning grass were all that told of the explosion. . oor e total loss will probably reach $600,- MRS. McKINLEY TMPROVES AND DOCTORS HAVE HOPE President Is Now Greatly Encour- aged and Is Taking a Much- Needed Rest. WASHINGTON, June 5.—For the first time since Mrs. McKinley's fillness the President and her physicians to-day felt encouraged over her condition. She is so weak and worn by disease that they are almost afraid to hope and the bulletin is- kued by Secretary Cortelyou at 11 o’clock this morning, after the .consultation of doctors, was of a tone less optimistic than tvas warranted by, _the state of Mrs. M Kinley’s health. The bulletin was: ““Mrs. cKinley's physiclans report that she has ad a very comfortable night and that her general condition is somewhat im- proved.” This improved condition has cont! ihroughout the day and evening. ’nufg McKinley is now sleeping naturally and if this situation continues until to-morrow it is believed that the physicians will be sble to report that there is hope of her yltimate recover: he warm weather 2s had 2 beneficial effect.

Upon his suggestion the elec- tion was carried over until this evening, and the regular concessions were all granted as for last year. During the afternoon when some of the Commissioners were inspecting the pro- posed site of the new electric light plant therewere several conferences with Lyons. at the meeting to-night, when Lyons’ charges were not presented and Guardian Stevens was re-elected by a unanimous vote. Lyons had prepared his charges in writ- ten form and attested them before a No- tary Public. He announced his intention of going_ before the Commissioners and Teading them at all hazards. The charges | were that the guardian had attempted to make improper advances to the wife of the complainant and had threatened the complainant with loss of employment if he made trouble. Efforts to get the wo- man out of the valley upon various pre- texts before the meeting of the Commis- sioners were alleged. But Lyons did not present the charges, despite all of his threats, and the Yo- semite Valley was spared its first scan- dal. The annual meeting brought forth nothing of moment except - this burst sensation. Governor Gage did not attend and Commissioners Kirkpatrick and Met- son and Clinch were absent. Those pres- ent were Vice President Willlam G. Hen- shaw, W. W. Foote, Charles S. Givens, Frank H. Short and William G. Kerck- hoff. William G. Henshaw was re-elected vice president and J. J. Lermen was re- elected secretary. 3 Besides granting all of the old conces- sions the only business of importance was the decision reached to expend all of the Mariposa_big tree grove fund in the grove at Wawona at once. This fund has been allowed to accumulate of late. C. L. Cory, who was instructed to prepare plans for the proposed electric light plant, for which a special appropriation was made by the last Legislature, re- ported a general plan, to include a power station below Vernal Falls, a system of wires for the valley and a searchlight to be thrown across the valley upon Yo- | semite Falls. This matter will be finally settled at a future meeting to be held in S8an Francisco. Governor Gage will be conferred with upon this, as he is much interested in the plan. WANTS HER CONVICTED oF qmggum MURDER Prosecutor Makes His Statement in the Sensational Case of Lulu Prince Kennedy. KANSAS CITY, June 5.—A jury was se- cured this afternoon in the case of Lulu | Prince Kennedy, charged with murdering | her husband, Philip H. Kennedy, and Prosecutor Hadley made his opening ad- dress. The courtroom was crowded and the young prisoner attracted much atten- tion. She appeared despondent and indif- ferent by turns, and when adjournment until to-morrow was announced and she was returned to her cell, she laughingly bade her attorneys good-by. Prosecutor Hadley said that the State would show that the prisoner's motive for killing Kennedy was to avoid the pub- licity incident to the trial of the dead man’'s suit to annul the marriage into which he alleged her father and brothers had forced him. It would also be shown, he said, that another motive was to cover up the conspiracy to which the defendant and her relatives were parties.

UKIAH, June 5—The town of Willits, twenty-four miles north of Ukiah, was practically destroyed by fire this after- noon. The fire started in a blacksmith shop in the northern part of town, and, urged by a brisk wind, it was soon com- municated to other buildings. There be- g no waterworks or fire apparatus, nothing could be done to stay the ad- vance of the flames. Three hotels—the Palace, the Little Lake and the Occidental; three livery stabies, several stores and saloons, shops, etc., were soon destroyed. In fact, the only business buildings left standing were Irvine & Muir’s brick store, the Odd Fel- lows' building and one or two stores. Nine or ten residences were burned. Quite a number of houses were new and some of them uncompleted. Willits has enjoyed a substantial boom for several months, as it is soon to be the terminus of the California Northwestern Rallway. Buildings have been going up on every hand and the town has been crowded with veople. The losses are very heavy and tine insurance light. Many new stores had recently been opened, several Ukiah mer- chants having established branches there. The fire will be quite a backset to the town temporarily, as it was difficult to procure lumber for the buildings alrcady under way. Rebullding will begin soon and progress as rapidly as possibly. The railroad extension will reach Willits about September and it is expected the town will continue to grow. The following is a list of the losses so far reported: Hughes & Hale, general merchandise, $§1500, no insurance; J. C. Stay, general merchandise, $750; Dr. Charles Chalfant, dental tools and fur- niture, $100; F. L. Mozier, blacksmith shop, $250; Vincent, blacksmith shop and residence, $3000; X-Ray Printing of- fice, $300; W. Whited, Palace Hotel, $7000, insurance $2000; J. Harms, butcher shop and bullding. $5000, insurance $1500; Ann Lo: gland, Little Lake Hotel, $6000, par- tially insured; H. Marks & Co., general merchants, $750; Sam Blodes, harness sho‘), §250. These do not include all of the business places destroyed or the numer- ous residences that the flames consumed. ASSAILANT OF ACTRESS: INDICTED BY GRAND JURY Young Moulton, Who Tried to Shoot May Buckley, Will Go to the South. NEW YORK, June 5.—It was learned to-day that Richard Hayden Moulton, the young man who attempted to shoot. May Buckley, an actress, about two' mbnths ago in a Broadway rathskeller, was in- dicted on Monday last by the grand jury under the name of Richard H. Morris, on the complaint of John D. Leffingwell. Yesterday he was discharged on his own recognizance by Judge Cowing. To-day Moulton was temoved from the prison ward in Bellevue Hospital to another ward in the same hospital. He will be taken south in a short time by his moth- er, Moulton was infatuated with the ac- tress, but they had quarreled. He failed to hit her, but he did shoot A. F. Ding- wall and John D. Leffingwell, theatrical managers, - who were seated at a table with Miss Buckley. Lefiingwell's wound was slight, but Dingwall was badly hurt, and was obliged to remain in a hospitai for some weeks. After the shooting it became known that Moulton, who was very deaf, had been addicted for a long time to the use of drugs and that the drugs had played such havoc with him, both physically and mentally, that his re- covery was doubtful. His mother came to New York from the family home in Tennessee, and has remained” with him up to the present time. o 2 Barely Escapes Drowning. PACIFIC GROVE, June 6.—G. H. Yost of Palo Alto had a narrow escape from drowning while boating on Monterey Bay yesterday with his little daughter. When near Chinatown Point, the boat struck on a submerged rock, and a heavy roller striking it at the same time, it overfurn- ed and the occupants were thrown out. Fortunately, a_ second roller threw_the boat against the rock so that Mr.. Yost ‘was able 1o right it and pull himself and little girl out of the water. People on shore saw the accident and at once sent a boat to their rescue, and- nothing more. serious than a wetting was the result. AW 3 ok Falls From a Window.

Spectal Dispatch to The Call. PEKING, June 5.—The Chinese Plenipo- tentiaries have held a conference to de- cide as to how edicts are to be published announcing the amount of indemnity to be paid and ordering the setting apart of revenues to mect the payments. No deci- sion was reached. The United States, while failing to se- éure a reduction of the total amount of indemnity, with which attempt other powers had no sympathy, has consented to reduce the amount of her claim by half, demanding only enough to meet ex- penses in connection with the transporta- tion of her troops. The British have taken similar action. Last night‘a large fire occurred in the Forbidden City. The Boa’d of Records building was destroyed, = together with most of the records it contained. The Jap- anese, who were guarding the west gate adjoining the building, made fruitless at- tempts to extingujsh the flames. The heaviest thunderstorm that has occurred here for many years prevailed last night, and it is supposed the fire was caused by lightning. A strange coincidence is that an edict was recently reported to have been issued to destroy all records of the various departments in Peking. . Whether this report be true or not, the fire may tend to induce the court to remain away. Indiscriminate Looting. It is reported the Germans and Japan- ese, having transferred their sections to the Chinese, proceeded to indulge in indis- criminate looting and other unseemly acts. The Chinese have requested the British to prevent similar occurrences when they transfer their section.
