Three Men Injured: Which Occured While

Vancouver, B, C., Nov. 4.—A terrible
boiler explosion occurred yesterday at
the Royal City mills, three men being
injured, G. Suliy, Charles Phillips and
@ youth named Forbes. Fortunately
the accident happened during the
luncheon hour, when the 1400 men were
away. The boiler was blown 60 yards
andthe engine house wrecked. Five
men standing close to the toiler miracu-
lously escaped unhort. The big smoke-
stack fell on the blacksmith shop, in
which were seven men, but all eacsped

The police made’the raid, it seems,
without the sanction of the mayor.
This morning when court adjourned
Messrs. Whiteside, Neleon and Cronyn
were present for the defense but there
was nocity prosecutor. Chief Ingram
requested Maj. Cooper to summon City
Solicitor McLeod to prosecute the gam-
blers. The mayor intercepted the
major.and countermanded the order,
“Then I will go myself,” angrily de-
clared Chief Ingrau.

“As your superior, I forbid it,” said
the mayor. °
“I am'the superior in this caee,’’ re-
torted the chief, picking up his hat and
walking out.

The mayor put on bis hat and fol-
lowed. He soon returned smiling as is
his custom and took up his position be-

one and will be betier understood,
when it is remembered Att. McNeill
was euspeneed by the mayor and Att.
NeLeod appoinied in his place.

If the mayor felt any chagrin over the
turn affairs hvd taken he did not show
it, but later events proved that he was
busy thinking.

At the request of both sides the gamb-
lers, cases were adjouraed until tomor-
row, each being-compelled to renew his
bail. Tomorrow the mayor is expected
