Missile Blown From Steel Plant Causes Great Havoc.

The saloon of P. C. Peterson, S901 Green Bay avenue, was partially wrecked yesterday about 1 o'clock and the lives of twenty on thirty men were ' endangered by a heavy piece of slag j and splegel that was blown through j the roof of the building and landed In the barroom as the result of a dyna- J mite discharge In the rear of the con- I verting mill of tho Illinois Steel company. J Tho practice of tho Steel company ; is to blast out lodes of steel and iron that cool before they are poured out, dynamite being used for the purpose. This is the first tinio since the practice has begun that any damage has been ' done. Usually the charges of explosive uod are so light as to be practically harmless. It Is supposed that the workmen used too heavy a charge. The piece of mixed slag and splegel that was thrown through the roof of Peterson's saloon weighed in the neighborhood of fifty pounds. It went

through the attic, the parlor on the second floor and landed in the barroom, where It created consternation among the crowd present. The accident occurred just at the the noon hour, and the place was crowded with workmen. The only person injured was Joseph McCune, the bartender, who was struck by flying splinters. Tho missile rtruck a table and glanced onto the back bar where a quantity of glassware was destroyed. The table was splintered and the bar partially destroyed. Joseph Kane, 9336 Essex avenue, came near losing his life. The missile passed so close to his head that the rim of his derby hat was clipped off.

Railroad Officer Flushes Game That City Officer Were Stalking. Joseph Schmidt and John Buralowski, ; arrested last night by Special Officer j Gallagher of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad and Officers Baer and O'Keefe of the South Chicago station, were arraigned this morning in the municipal i court and the case was continued till tomorrow morning to enable the officers to secure evidence connecting the men with the theft of brass from the ! journals of freight ears. At a late hour last night Officers Baer and O' Keefe were notified that suspicious

characters were bunking in the Baltimore & Ohio yards. Special Officer Gallagher was notified and plans were made to entrap the men. While the city officers were watching the men and keeping out of sight, Gallagher came upon them unexpectedly and was compelled to make the arrest. The men had not made a haul, and were simply taken to the station and booked on disorderly charges.

Lieutenant John IX Ryan of the East Side station has been doing a little transferring on his own hook.

Ryan away from Hegewisch, where his style of beauty is not appreciated by the belles of Batling Xelson's town, and sent him back to his "native village" of South Deering.

Locals officials of the Illinois Steel company today denied the truth of the story published in the Chicago morning papers that W. E. Corey, president of the United States Steel corporation, had inspected the South Chicago works yesterday. The yarn was to the effect that Mr. Corey, who 13 said to be pursuing Mabelle Gilman, the actress, since his divorce from his wife, two years ago, visited Chicago and registered at the Auditorium Annex, together with several prominent steel corporation officials. Hhe declined to be interviewed about his private affairs and gave out a story about having visited the South Chicago works. The city papers a few days ago had a story about an actor chap good for $400 a week on the vaudeville circuit, who claimed to have first call on the affections of Miss Gilman. The presence of this man in Chlacgo may have some bearing on Mr. Corey's visit. Sporting Extra of LAKE COUNTY TIMES on the street five minute after games rt 1th final revults.
