Another Terrible Explosion.

POWDER works in California are very unfortunate. Another explosion occurred, on the 27th, at Stege Station, on the Central Pacific Railroad, some ten miles north of Oakland. Five white men and six Chinamen were killed, and four white men fatally burned. This was the most terrible of the many explosions which have occurred on this coast; the descriptions of the scene just after the accident are sickening in the extreme.
