196. ROASTED TO DEATH An Awful Incident of a Foot Ball Game TEN DIED HORRIBLY The Ropf of the Pacific Glass Works Gave Way Under the Weight of Watchers of che Stanford Berkeley Annual Contest Precipitating Them Upon Furnaces and Vats of Liquid Glass. San Francisco, Nov. 29. As the result of the most horrible catastrophe that ever occurred in San Francisco, ten were killed and fully fifty hadly injured todav by the collapse of the roof of the Pacific Glass works', on Fifteenth street.

About seventy-ilve people fell through the roof upon the led-hot furnaces and glass vats below. All were hmribly 'burned, and it Is feared that in addition to the ten deaths already reported there will be several more. The list of dead is as follows: WILLIAM VALENCIA. GEOnE EXTELL. EDWIN FLAHAVEN.

M. VANDIVA. THOMAS REPPON. AV. H.

HACHFEIT. J. T. MULROONEY. JOHN OAKES.

And two unidentified dead. Two hundred people, men and boys, had gathered on the sheet -iron roof cf the glass works to obtain a frge view of the annual' footba'1 game between Stanford and the University of California. About twenty minutes after the game had commenced there was a crash, plainly audible from the football grounds and a portion of the crowd on the roof went down to a horrible death below. The fires in the furnace had started up for the first time today and the vats were full of liquid glass. It was upon these that the victims fell.

Some were killed' instantly and others slowly roasted to death. A few missed he furnaces, or rolled c.ff altogether. The workmen in the glass works saved the lives of many who lay unconscious by pulling them off their horrible resting places. The police and fire departments were soon on hand and every patrol wason and ambulance in the city was summoned. There were not enough, and express wagons and private carriages were pressed into service to carry off the dead and wounded.

Many of the injued were unconscious, while others raced, shrieking with agony, to the hospita's. The Southern Pacific hospital was only two blocks away and that was quickly filled. About forty were taken there. Others were rent to St. Luke's hospital, the city receiving hospital, private residences and other places.

At hospitals there was soon a shortage of surgeons and some of the wounded had to wait until help came. The roof of the glass works was not 00 feet away from the football field, but twenty thousand people who were watching the game were too interested to notice what had happened. It was only when ushers went through the vast Icrowd hailing doctors that it became known that there had been an accident. Hundreds of people left the ground and gathered about the fence enclosing the glass works. The news of the disaster spread rapidly and thousands of anxious people quickly assembled.

The police kept them back with difficulty, while patrol wagons and ambulances dashed through tJie crowd on their way to and from the hospitals. EMPEROR WILLIAM Bis Coronation as King of Prussia to Take Place on Jan. 18. Berlin, Nov. 29.

Washington, Nov. 29. There is ample food for Thanksgiving rellections in some figures which the treasury bureau of statistics has just presented regarding the commerce and affairs of the United States in these closing months of the year 1900, as compared with conditions at the correspondin date in precedeing years, and compar ing prosperity in the United States with that in other countries. While the whole world is prosperous the United States seems to be especially so. Our exports show an in crease of in the ten months ending with October, 1900, as comparel with the corresponding months of 1S9D, and tne total for the ten months is practically double what it was in the corresponding months of 1994.

This, of itself, shows a rerr.at-k.abl activity in all lines of production. while the import, as well as the ex; figures, indicate that the activity ill manufacturing lines tiiid consequently the increased earnings of the million enanged in these industries must be very great. A very cf.nsi ii rai'olc share of the materials required for use in manufacturing comes from abroad. such as, for instance, India rubbs tin for use in. manufacturing tin plate: hemp, jute, sisal, raw silk, cabinet an.l dve woods, chemicals, hides and skins.

and certain grades of wool and cotton; and bv measuring the growth in the importation of these articles, some idea of the growth in manufacturing may be obtained. The total importation of materials of this class used in manufacturing dur- the ten months ending with Octo I ber 1900. is $238, 257,918, as comparel with S214.29o.757 in the corresponding months of 1S99, and in th I same months of 1S94. Turning again I to the export side, it is found that the i exportation of manufactures alone amount in tie nine months, -endin with September. 1300.

to agninst $277,502,649 in the correspond-inSmonths of 1S99, and $143,793,834 in the same months of Thus th exportation of manufactures has in creased nearly twenty-five per cent in one year, and more than doubled in the four years from ls9fi to 1900, while the importation of manufacturers ma terials has also increased at a very ranid rate. Exports of manufactures of iron and steel alone amount Sim ftr.O 000 l-i round numbers, in the ten months ending with October, 1900, as against in the cot respond ing munths of 1S97. thus having more thM doubled in the three years from 1S7 tr 1900. Not only. have the manufacturer and the millions dependent upon his inuus trv sh-aied in the prosperity of thi vear.

but those engaged in agriculture and mining seem to have been equally prosperous, judging from the record hnwn -bv the figures cf our export commerce. The exportation of agri cultural products in the ten months inir wiih Oceober. 1900. is in round terms. $700,000,000.

as against $625,000. 000 in the same months cf 1S99, while the product of the mine, the forest, and the fisheries, show an increase In 1900 as compared with the figures or 1893. This increase in the products of in dustry is especially interesiing in view of the fact that in many cases it shows a higher reward for a given quantity nf Uvlior nr. in other words, higher prices received for the article itself, as well as an. increasing quantity produced and sold.

In cotton, for instance, the average export price per pound" in the months of September and October, the beginning of the new cot ton year, has been 9.9. against 6.7 in the same months of the preceding year while in other agricultural productions and in various lines of manufae tnrea esneeiallv those of iron and steel, and in the products cf the mine? there are increased prices per uni: of quantity, and thus, better earnings for those who produce them. A comparison cf conditions in the United States ith those in other coun tries, as measured by the foreign commerce, indicates a degree of prosperity which compares favorably with any cot.ntry of the world. Our own exports for the ten months ending with October show an increase, as has already been shown, of $116,000,000. while in the exports of the United Kingdom the increase in ten months is while the 1900 figures for Belgium, France.

Spain and' Italy show no increase in exportati' ns during that part of the year 1900. whose record Is now-available. In case Belgium, France, Spain. Italy, Germany and the United Kingdom, the imports are greater than the while, in our own case, the exports vastly exceed the Imports: the excess of exports over imports in the ten months ending with October, bring $499,667, BUS, or a greater excess than in the corresponding period of any preceding year, and a greater excess than that of any other country of the world. It is is not improper in this review of the commerce of the year 1900, and comparison with preceding years, to also brielly review the decade and centnry, of which it forms the closing year.

While it is not practicable, of course, to give the total import and export figures for the calendar year, 19C0, the bureau of statistics has completed 'he figures of the fiscal year. 1900. ending with June 39, and thus made It practicable to compare the commerce of the fiscal year with the preceding fiscal years, running back to the beginning of the present form of government This which shows the Imports and exports in each year from 1790 to 1900, is too long to reproduce in full, 'but it has bean further condensed by the bureau into a table showinig the imports and exports in ten-year periods from 1790 to 1900. This table is- intertsting. not alone in its presentation of the import and export record, hut especially in its relative to x'oefsn of loipi.ri.q m' dill illt? lb'- HO years under consideration.

That imparls exports almost con iiiiioiisiy prior to the il.v-adc 1S71-SH and since that time exports have ainvost continuously exceeded imports, but the excess of exports over imports in decade just ending 1S91-1900, is extremely large, as compared with any preceding decade, while, as already shown, the excess of exports over imports in the single year 1900 will also be greater than in any precedinig j-ear in our history.

HOW GERMS DEVELOP Prof.

Koch Says Gnat Eites Introduce Parasites Into the Body. rlin, Nov. 29. Piv.f. Koch lectured before the colonial soc-iely, which was crowded with scientists and prominent men, at the Kaiseihoff hc'tel, rerenily, on the subject cf malarial fever.

Hi Cescrlt to his colleagues 'his experiences with the 'expedition to Java and New- Guinea. He said he hai rea-ehed 'th? conclusion that gnat bites ir.rrcluced and d-evelopj-d parasites into the human body. But, according to his theory, paraslV3 germs breed in the human body itself. The geirr.s are passed by a gnat from one human body to another but develop in the body of the gnat during pasta je. Children, he sal were especially liable to impregnation.

An Affair in Whieli Religion and Politics are Brought Together.

London, Nov. 29 Interest fn London's school board elec tion, which takes place tomorrow, has rapidly Increased as the date for the polling draws ar. and the indications are that the contest v.iil be as full cf interest and excitement as have its predecessors of former years. As the school board is one of the most important bo.lies chosen by popular vote in the metropolis, the contest is usually an exciting one, and at times the campaigns have been extremely bitter in consequence of the religious questions involved. The electors in the school board contests are designated as moderate cr progressives; the former, generally speaking, being the conservatives and churchmen, and the latter the liberals and non-conformists.

The moderates. largely under the inlluence of the church element and having to support the rhurch schools, resent everything t'hat tends to increase the expense r.f the secular schools, such as are built and administered by the school board. They are opposed to common s-c hoo's on principle, except in the most rudi mentary branches of education, and they have perpetually before them th threat of the progressive to introduce as soon as possible, high schools into the public regime. The present board has built many new schools and spent money lavishly in the way of improvements, under progressive direction with the result that today the Lonioa elementary school system is In finer condition and much further advanced than ever before. It is the hope of the moderates to defeat the progressive at the polls torr'orrow and thereby pre vent the present system cf educational development from going forward.

There are 95 candidates in the field for the 53 seats to be filled, 43 of the nom nees being present members of the board, who have been renominated. KRUGER'S BERLIN DATE. Sa't Lake, Nov. 29. Secretary Chas.

VICTORY FOR INDIANS University of Arizona Fails to Scare on Redman In a Game Filial With High Class Football, the Phoenix Eleven Wins by a Small Margin Over the Brawny Athletes of Tucson. 5S In one of tiie hardest, most bitterl fougnt, Iili. Withal, one of tne est foot ball battles ever seen on l.K'al gridiron, rh-s Phoenix Indian scn-iol It earn' defeated eleven from the University of Arizona. Thursday af Urn-ion.

The score was 6 to 0, and about 2,500 or 3,000 people witnessed the game. From the kick-off until the final-f ail of time the two teams played foot ball of a naiaire sufficiently good to gratify the most fastidious lover of the great American game. It was essentially gentlemanly game and but a minimum quantity of squabbling was caijed into use. The result -cf the game agreed with prophecies of local foot ball ex perts. Reputed good judges liad fore seen that the Indian team would win, and the eleven from the governmen school stood favorite in what little be lting was in seme cases odds 2 to 1 being given.

It had been figured thai the university's sole chance scoring lay in the first Irajf of th game, and that aecordlr.g to precedent the Indians would wear down their op ponents and win in the second 'half. Consequently when the redskins began 'the game by ripping, tearing, smashin and crashing through the collegian line and then capping it all with a touch down within ton minutes, the enthusi astie sharps predicted a large and very lopsided score. But foot, ball gam are as iliilu-ut': -to to-recast as are norso races. Instead of putting the best cf its playing in the first part cf the per formance, the college team seemingly reserved its best playing unt'l fiinl half and then played such fast foo ball as to keep the Indian soal con stantly serious danger. After the kick-off the Indians worked steadily down through the university territory.

The collegians were totally- unable to stop the Indian formation of guards and tackles back. Smith, Lugo and Silvaa took turns in ripping through holes at guard and tack le; and varying their offensive work with occasional trips around the end and straight' bucks by Patricio Lugo, carried the ball to withirf ten yards of colkge The university held here, and desperately, but Hi vain. Tile In dians Iostt the bail on down, but re. gained it promptly and then sent P. Lugo through Marlar, straight between the goal posts.

iEno3 kicked goal. Score, 6 to 0. Mere tne university took its injection of nerve and energy and carried the oval to the Indians' 25-yard line. Par ker, Russell, Reynolds and Day alter nated in short trips through the line and in ten minutes more had a goal in sighk. but failed in an attempt at a goat kick from the field.

The Indians kicked out for fifty yards and Parke carried the bail back for two-thirds of the distance. The half ended with th pigskin in the middle of the field and in possession of the redmen. The Indians started Ithe second half by carrying the ball down io Arizona's 30-yard line and Enos essayed a drop kick, 'but failed to onnect with the coveted space between the posts. The balance of the game was played chiefly in the Indian territory and twice the collegians reached the 10-yard line, but it was thus far and no farther. Th red men held like a stone wall and then punted out of danger.

Robinson, who replaced Reynolds in the last half, made a sensational sprint around right end for yards and followed It up with several shorter gains, but his efforts were futile the extent that his team again reached a point nearer the Indian goal, and the game ended wish the ball on. the redmeii's 50-yard line. The Indians played a game vastly better than they showed In th last match with tha- normal, and Silvas, Smith, F. Lugo, Enos and Woods probably made th' 1110.4. creditable showing.

Five Phoenix men played with the university team, and shared the honors with Robinson and Parker. Smith and Marian did excellent work, While the playing of Christy, Russell and Gillett reflected well on the quality of foot ball men which Phoenix produces. The teams wiu meet again during the carnival and the university men are confident, with the experience gained in yesterday's batlile, to wipe out yeste: day's defeat, lined up in this manner: Indian school. teams University.

29. The interior of the big Tatteisalls building at Sixteenth and Stale streets, had the appearance of a score of big hotel kitchens 'thrown into one this morning. Dozens of Salvation Army lads and lasies versed in the culinary art, commenced at an early hour, preparations for 'the to'ig annual feast to be given to the newsboys and the street waifs of Chicago. The impromptu cooks, each wearing long aprons, each went to work with a will peeling bushels of potatoes, seeding raisins for plum puddings, preparing stuffing for roast turkeys, and sorting over donations of fruit, candies, nuts and other dainties calculated to rr.laka the little fellows happy. A few hours later fifteen or twenty big gas ranges, such as are used In hotels, were filling the big building with the savory odor of cranberry sauce, mince pies and puddings.

When, the boys were ushered in they found 100 tables, all laid and ready for them. THA1IKSGIVIKG WITH APACHES A Case of Justice and a Case of a Joke. District Attorney Thomas E. Flanni-gaa said laat night that every 'Thanksgiving day reminded him of one he spent on a cattle range the White Mountain Indian reservation iabout twenty years ago. As a matter of fact tfcs range was net officially on 'the reservation, for it had no right to he there, but the cowboys were earrrpedi there and moat of the cattle were Chre.

Several Apaches living In that" part of the reservation visited the camp daily, partly out of curiosity and partly to steal. One of them had 'been watched by ithe cow-boys for a long time. One day he came into camp with a gee-string and a criminal purpose to increase his wardrobe, for Thanksgiving day even in that wild region hring3 with it more or less of a chill. He loafed about ithe camp until late in the afternoon and as he was leaving swiped a shirt which a cowboy had washed and hung on a bush to dry. The thief, caught In the act, was captured, tied to a tree and told that he was to be shot.

Four men were stationed in front of him with Winchesters peinttd at his breast. He was then blindfolded. Another cow-boy stood by with a cup of cold water. During all the preparation for the execution the Apache offered no manifestation of fear. At a word the rifles were dis charged into the air and at the same instant the 'man with the cup of water dashed it against the Indian's breast.

The victim shrieked once and col lapsed. When he was untied he sank down and the scared cowboys believed that he was dead. He was finally re stored and was allowed to keep the shirt. All this had happened in the course cf jus; lee, that no bad consequence was feared, beside, the Indian had been fully placated. He said he was so glad to wake up and find that he had not been shot that he loved his white neighbors more than ever.

The next day, though, the cowboys played a joke on an Indian without provocation. The victim was an old man who had visiteci camp every day for week. He was as methodical as clock-work in his movements. Every day at a certain hour he was seen at-a long distance riding down the valley toward the camp. Arriving near the camp and.

dismounting, he always tied his cayuse to the same scrub oak tree. Then he sat down on a certain boulder and resting his elbows on 'his knees. contemplated the cowboys hour after hour. He was never sreen to wink or move his eyes. In the course of all his visits he had never uttered a word! in reply to the raillery of the cowboys.

a certain, hour he always rose from his seat, untied his cayuse and rode away. One day the cowboys decided to vary the form of reception. They built a great fire early in the morning, rolled the "boulder into It and plied on wood until afternoon. A maJi on watch a.t length reported the approach of their visiter a mile away. The boulder was pushed out of the fire and rolled baek nio its original resting place.

The Indian arrived ten minutes laitcr. tied his pony to the scrub oak and sal down on the iboulder, but not for long. Like Fritz Emmett's cuckoo, "he flew so high he almost touched the sky." He came down howling and running. The ice of Apache stoicism had not only been broken through, but had been wholly melted. fThe next instant he was on his cayuse flying up the valley.

sl.ill yelling. The cow camp was moved off the reservation the next day. DISTRIBUTING MEDALS. The Anniversary Meeting of the Royal Society. London, Nov.
