BOULDER, Colo., Aug. 10. While fir*
was destroying the Colorado & Southern
flight depot early today, between fillv
and one hundred people who were assist*
mg in ejucching the flames or watching
the work of the volunteer firemen, were
Injured by the explosion of four tons of
dynamite on a flat car. No one was
killed outright, but it is thought several
will die from their injuries.
The town was thrown into a panic by
the catastrophe and many of those hurt
v ere taken to their homes by their
friends or to houses in the immediate
neighborhood, where attention was given
until physicians arrived.
Most of the injured were more or less
burned and a great many bones were
j broken.
I The origin of the fire has not been
definitely determined, although many be-
l.eve it lo have been caused by incendi-
| aries.
Tho fire had progre ssed only a short
time and was in a fair wav of bein,f
I rouglit under control through the utt-
I inching efforts of a hundred or more
volunteer firemen, when a terrific ex-
plosion ren h red many firemen and sp- c-
lators senseless and sent stones, bricks
and timbers L'lying in all directions
Panic seized upon the people and they
lan hither and thither, many injured and
bledlng lying on tho ground. Soon tho
excitement quieted down. Newspap< .•
correspondents and the city officers found
ihe railroad depot in ruins and a number
o•' houst s and H eight ears had been blown
to pieces.
It is bellevd two of the injured will
e!ie. The property loss is estimated at
*250,000. Twenty-five of the injured were
taken to local hospitals. Others were re-
:r oved to their homes.
The fatally injured were:
Hoy La favor, volunteer fireman, Boul-
der.
Ike C. Tilson, volunteer fireman, Boul-
der.
Among the others injured are:
Jack Livingston, l»<>nver. machinist.
M< wn fifty feet against the side of a

one whole pane of glass remains in the
center of the city.
Guards of armed men were thrown
pbout, the banks and mercantile estab-
lishments to prevent looting.
S< arcely had the smoke from the ex-

Two Classes of Concerns Are Allowed
ts Become Reinstated by Comply-
ing With Penalty Provisions
of the Measure.
Owing to the disabilities Incurred by
the telegraph companies incident to
the strike of operators, the news serv-
ice of The Express was materially
hampered yesterday, and appears less
than half complete in this morning's
issue. But few messages could be
handled by managers and chief opera-
tors throughout the State and as the
press had to share facilities wtih the
commercial world and private indi-
viduals, the transmission of news was
all but paralyzed. The Associated
Press wires began continuous opera-
tion at an hour much later than usual
owing to a vote that was being taken
early in the night by the operators
throughout the Southern circuit, and
hence its report is materially less than
the average in volume.
SUMMARY OF THE NEWS.
Daily Express Austin Bureau.
AUSTIN, Tex., Aug. 10.—^Corporations
which nave forfeited their rights to do
bu.sin-ss in the State beeaasc ef failure
to pay their franchise tax. and who de-
sire. to have their right restored would
do well to look into the franchise tax
law passed at the special session of tho
last Legislature.
There are two classes of corporations
which have forfeited their rights lo do
busir ss in Texas, but which may re-
instate themselves under certain condi-
tions. The first class includes those cor-
porations which have forfeited their
rights by failure to pay their tranehise
tax on or before July 1, 19u7. These
corporations have six months from July
1 in which to reinstate themselves, and
then only after the payment of fines and
penalti s, which, under the new law,
is $5 n month plus the tax which the
corporation failed to pay, and plus $25 of
the fr tnchise tax after May 1.
The second class of corporations, which
have lost th' ir right to do business in
Texas because of failure to pay their
franchise tax, are those which failed to
pay the tax b fore July 1, 190t». These
eorporatiems have only until September 1,
1%7, t e» reinstate themselves.
If tho c irporatons are not reinstated
by that Urn • they are bkel" to become
defunct, for the only wv they can
legally obtain their right to do business
in Texas again is by reorganization and
com in? back with ulean hands, which
is rathe;* difficult.
For a corporation to r'instate itself is
often more expensive than coming in as
a w organization, for in many in-
stances the fines are heavy. A man came
into the Secretary of State's office today
In j j a v' • thi light ..f a railroad com-
pany renewed. He found the fines and
penalties amounted to e>ver Si.oo. It would
have east less than $£1'9 to charter it
a new corporation.
Under the law of 1S97 the penalties for
not paying the franchise tax was >'5
flat. In 11KYi the law was amended so
the' penalty was $5 plus 25 per cent of
Hie franchise tax a month and in 1005
the penalty was made five per cent ejf
the tax. Under the different laws the
penalties vary ier different periods.
Tax and Penalty.
Under the act e>f 1905 the penalty clause
reads "Tax and penalties due it, to-
gether with ar. additional amount of 5
p, r cent of such tax (in no case to be
i. ss than $51, for each month or frac-
i< nal part of a month which shall have
elapsed after such forfeiture." The dif-
ficult/ arising here is in determining
whether the words "in nr. case to be less
than $5"' and applicable to the aggregate
amount or to tho amount lot* each
month
The Secretary • f Slate's office has held
that th law means that amount for each
month, and in an opinion from the At-
torney General's department today the
action of tho- Secretary of State is up-
held.
For the benefit of corporations which
ir. iv desire to reinstate themselves At-
torney General Hawkins today gave out
the following statement:
"The re becomes effective today an act.
which was passed at tho first called ses-
sion of the Legislature upon the rubjoct
of franc his - taxes of corporations. This
act fix\s the amount of su-'h taxes and

BELIEVES ORCHARD.
Traveling Guard of Idaho Penitentiary
Says He Told Truth.
Special Telegram to The Express.
SPOKANE, Wash., Aug. 10.— D. W.
Ackley, traveling guard of the Idaho
State penitentiary at Boise, who had
charge of Harry Orchard during his
stay in that institution before and dur-
ing the Haywood trial, declares he be-
lieves every word of the self-confessed
slayer's story and testimony. He said
while in Spokane that it is evident that
after Orchard committed the. crimes he
told about he reported his doings to a
committee of the Western Federation of
Miners. He added:
"So far as 1 am able to learn Orchard
told a straight story; the reaching of
the verdict freeing Haywood was due
to the failure e>f the attorneys for the
State in gathering sufficient "corrobora-
tive evidence to convict the defendant."
Fred Miller, associate counsel for the
defense, who has just returned to Spo-
kane, says there is no truth in the re-
port that the relations between Hay-
wood and Moyer have been strained. He
believes there will he difficulty in se-
curing a jury to try the Pettibone case,
which will be heard In Ada County in
October.

The novel feature of the wedding was
that while the ceremony was read the
bride, groom, minister and attendants
were mounted on their eayuses, making
it the first horseback marriage in this
part of tho Northwest. Mr. Nees and
his bride were schoolmates at West Sa-
le m. where they pledged their lives to
each other fifteen years ago. They will
live at Tahoc. Idaho, where the groom
has a big ranch.

CHICAGO, 111., Aug. 10.—Encouraged
by their success in hampering the facili-
ties of both commercial telegraph com-
panies in Chicago, the striking operators
are now planning to carry the warfare
to all parts of the United States and Can-
ada. Instructions were today tele-
graphed by National Secretary Russell
to the men in New York and other cities
where they are still at work to "save
their money and await orders."
Another telegram was sent to President
Small of the Telegraphers Union, who is
in San Francisco, urging him to take the)
first train to Chicago to look after tho
situation, as it is the announced intention
of the men to engineer the fight from
Chicago.
Companies Ready to Fight.
The telegraph companies are preparing
to meet the issue and eieclare they will
fight to a finish. They declare they have
been temporizing with the union many
months and they will hold no further
negotiations with the representatives of
the men on strike. Cots have been in-
stalled in the but' lings of both companies
in Chicago for the accommodation of
strike breakers and other preparations
for a bitter struggle are being perfected.
Approximately there are 4V.-0 men now
on strike who were employed by both
companies in thirty-nine cities through-
out the country, and the list is being
added to every te^ minutes. The points
already affected and the total number of
strikers are *s follows:

Non-Union Men Arrive.
A consignment of non-union e>perators
from the east arrived here today and
were at once placed at work. The new
arrivals were evenly distributed between
the two companies.
"We are filling positions as rapidly as
possible," said T. P. Cook, general su-
perintendent of the Western Union Com-
pany. tonight. "We are in a better con-
dition than we expected. We will not
deal with any representative of the strik-
ers. as this company only treats with Its
own employes. When the men quit work
they ceased to be employes of the West-
ern" Union and our relations with them
are at an end. There will be no union
recognition in this controversy."
"Will you meet President Gompers of
the American Federation of Labor should
he come lo Chicago and offer his serv-
ices'.'" Mi. Cook was asked.
"We will not."
Mr. Gompers Is expected to reach Chi-
cago Monday morning.

What is a "Policy?"
A fiio insurance policy is simply
a ^promise to reimburse you in case
your property is damaged or destroyed
by fire.
What is the "Preminm?"
The premium is what you pay for
the promise—and what helps to make
good when you have a fire. Some
promises are cheap.
