A ffblpload of Dynamite Bxploden, Tlmn^ i>f fiodics, PwrtH of Bodies, Iran, Wood and Other Debris High in the Air--A Ssln of Destruction Follows. MADRID, NOT. 6.--[Copyright, 1893, by the Associated Pres?.]--The terrible disas­ ter which has wrecked the port of der and destroyed hundreds of lives, has sent a thrill of horror throughout Spain. Tbe story of this $reat disaster in brief is as follows: The Cabo Machichaco. a Spanish Bceamship belonging to Bilboa, caught fire Friday afternoon while the steamer wan alouRside the quay discharg­ ing part of her cargo, which comprised nearly a,000 tons of merchandise, though the main part of this cargo was iron ore and a number ot sacks of flour, barrels of wine, many cases of petroleum and over 500 cases of dynamite, of which only twen­ ty cases were declared on tbe steamer's manifest. The remaining 480 cases of dyna­ mite were contraband, and to the shame of the shippers of this contraband dyna­ mite it has caused immense leas of life and vast damage to property. Flames broke out from the coal bunkers and soon raged so fiercely as to be beyood control of the ship's crew, though the latter promptly took steps to smother the flames. They failed and called on the local author­ ities for help and the fire department and civic guard responded, bended by local municipal officials. The provincial gov­ ernor, who was one of the first to reach the spot, displayed tbe greatest activity in directing the operations, and upon learning that tbe ship's manifest showed that there were twenty cases of dynamite on board had it all taken ashore. Crowds Throng the Se.ne of Peril. A tug was then summoned and ordered to tow the vessel out cf danger of setting flre to the wharf and buildings thereon. Meantime thousands of people had gathered at tbe quay and on the streets contiguous. The fire from tbe ship's bunkers spread quickly and ignited the petroleum which formed part of tbe cargo which tbe authorities had for some reason or other failed to remove when the twenty cases of dynamite were taken ashore. At about 4:30 p. m. a detonation on board s owed, as it afterwards turned out, that the boilers had burst, and soon after there was another terrible detonation heard. The steamer seemed to open in half, sending a blaze of fire skyward, over which a crown of smoke rested for several min­ utes. A report of such awful intensity was beard that it^thook the earth for miles around, caused houses to totter, smashed every window within the radius of a rifle shot, filled tbe air with a mass of flying iron, burning wood, blackened timbers, and scorched beams, which soon after fell, a death-dealing hail, upon the neighbor­ ing houses, scattering death and destruc­ tion wherever it crushed downward. The force of the exploding dynamite caused such a concussion that in addition to shaking hundreds of buildings oflf their foundation# it actually tank a hundred small crafts in the harbor in addition to setting fire to a large number of other vessels and starting conflagrations upon several of the larger ships, including the Alfonso XII, which vessel caught flre so suddenly and burned so fiercely that forty of her crew lost their lives on board of her. One H«WIM4 P«opU Go Stark aCad. For a moment after the disaster the peo­ ple were positively stunned with dismay and horror, and then followed a panic during which 101* people are reported to have gone stark mad,while the vast major­ ity were so paralysed with fear and shock that they were incapable of moving to tbe assistance of tbe djingorof itmlsmg any effort to extinguish the fiatuw which sprang up from a mass of buildings. The quay and promenade c lose to the scene of the explosion presented the most sicken­ ing sight ever witnessed. Mangled and blackened corpses were scattered here and there or were in heaps--in many eases-- upon the wounded and dying, whose'fear- ful shrieks of agony filled the air and struck terror into the hearts of those who after a time summoned sufficient courage to venture near tbe carnage ground. Over 100 people are said to have been precipitated into the sea by the explosion, and there ben path tbe bail of blood, wood and iron they met death with the crews of the unfortunate steamer and the tug boat which was about to tow her into the bay. On board the tug boat were many citizens of Santander who were taking part in the work of rescue. All of them have disap­ peared forever. A train from the pro­ vince which was just arriving at the rail­ road station when the Cabo Machicacho blew up was wrecked and &et fire to and the majority ot its passengers burned to death before any assistance could be furnished them. According to official telegrams the lat­ est account shows that 800 people were killed and 450 wounded? ' The loss on burned houses is estimated at $2,MX),000.

At U ,0 clock this CERNING ILLINOISANS. morning the church ceremonies at the funeral of Carter H. Harrison were begun in the Church of the Epiphany, corner of Ashland boulevard and Adams street. Rev. T. N. Morrison, Jr., the rector of the church, read tbe service--the simply beautiful Episcopal liturgy -- and the church was crowded with those who held invitations. Outside the street and boulevard were thronged with those who could not get into tbechnrch, while stand­ ing in their plaoes in line were the mili­ tary sad ether organizations which had escorted the remains to the church. An hour before the white-robed priest met the casket at tbe door of God's house, repeating the solemn words of the liturgy, "I am the resurrection and the life," ten­ der hands had bo.-ne the remains from the catafalque to the hearse, and the long procession had followed it to the church. After tbe services at the Epiphany church, the line of march was again taken up, this time for the dead mayor's last resting place, beautiful Greenland cemetery. It was well along in the afternoon before the march was com­ pleted, the last words of the priest said and the dead left in its "palace of rest." Mayor Harrison's old-time chief of police, Austin J. Doyle, was the chief marshal of tbe parade instead of Chief of Police Brennau, and he had a staff composed of nearly all the officers at Chicago of the Illinois National guard, with fifty other gentlemen. Mayor Harrison's funeral is one of the most remarkable demonstrations of re­ spect to the dead ever seen in the city. "The day Mayor Harrison was buried" will 1m an expression used as a comparison for great multitudes. Had the respect in hich the dead man was held been In doubt the outpouring of people which com- menced at 10 a. m. yesterday and kept up with only a ahort intermission until 10 o'clock this morning would have dissi' •Teleirr&nlite Reports of Crimes, CnsiHttii^ and Miscellaneous Happenings frosa Different Parts of the State--Mews Pre* pared for Illinois Renders. x \ RUSHVILLK, Ills., Nov. 4.--A Moody b«t> tie occurred at tbe residence of Williaii* Knouse, in Bainbridge township.

NHW YORK, NOV. 7.--The Herald's La Iiibertad, Honduras, dispatch savs: "Hon­ duras fired upon the American flag this morning. By the alleged orders of Presi­ dent Yasquez and by the express com­ mand of the commissioner of the port of Amapala several shots were flred after the Pacific mail steamship Costa Rica, flying tbe stars and stripes, as she steamed away, because she refused to surrender one of her passengers to the Honduras govern­ ment. United States Minister Baker was on board the Costa Rica at the time. The passenger about whom the trouble arose is P. Bonilln, who recently led the revolu­ tion in Honduras, but was defeated by General Vasques. Demanded the Surrender of Bonilln. "He fled to Nicaragua with 800 of his ad­ herents, joined the army of Preside 11C Sav- cassa who was engaged in an attempt to quell a revolution. Bonilla had decided to leave Nicaragua in order to relieve the government of all responsibility of harbor­ ing him. He therefore sailed from Nica­ ragua for Guatemala. Minister Baker and 100 others were his fellow passengers. They arrived Sunday at Anr.apala, a port of entry of Honduras, on the Pacific coast. In the afternoon the commander of the port, Villa, demanded that Captain Dow should surrender Bonilla. V , Insisted on His Delivery, "When the reqnest was refused a threat was made to sink the ship, and it was as serted that 1 resident Vasquez had givei. orders to that effeet. Villa, incen«ed »< the refusal to surrender Bonilla, gave UK orders to fire on the ship. A govern met)« officer came on board ttt 8:30 this mormug saying that new orders had been received from the president insisting on the deli v ery of Bonilla or the bombardment of the ship. The Captain Played for Time. "Captain Dow replied that the com­ mander of the port wouid receive his answei in half an hour, but before that time expired he sailed away. Several shots were flred after the Costa Rica, al­ though carrying the American ilag. One of the shots struck her, doing no damage, but it is feared that the S. S. Calla, of the same line, which was lying in port, may have been injured, for tbe firing continued some time after the vessel waft <u*t#f ranse." -• ^ The Blast Went Oft, t SOUTH PKABOBT, Mass., Nov. 4.--A ter­ rible blasting accident took place here at the Dreyburn lodge in which three per­ sons were badly injured?- one fatally.
