FATAL DYNAMITE EXPLOSION
TWO MEN KILLED AT PROFESSOR MowBRAY's
NITRO GLyCERIEE MANUFACToRY THEIR
BODIES TORN IN PIECES THE FIFTH OF A
SERIES OF SIMILAR DISASTERS IN THE SAME
Icy TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD.

BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD
NORTH ADAMS. Mass, June 30 1879
At six minutes before O'Clock this afternoon
the village of North Adams was startled for the fifth
time in the space of nine years with the terrible
that the nitro glycerine works of George NJ Now
bray, one and half miles distant, had again blown
up. The explosion occurred in what is known the
packing room about four rods from the factory
proper william Long. foreman OF the glycerine
works. and james Pierce. laborer, were at work in
the building packing exploding tubes with dyna-
mite. Mr. Mowbray calls il, his eighteen hun
dred and seventy nine compound" The cause of
the explosion will always remain mystery, as has
been the in all former EXPLOSIONS. 1t is not
known exactly how much of the powder was in the
building. but without doubt there several hun
dred pounds.
VICTIMS OF THE DISASTER.
Both men were experienced at the business. Long
was about thirty years Of age and SINGLE His pa
rents live in Vermont. He was employed in the
Hoosac Tunnel for several years by Professor Now
bray. but had only been in the gycerine works
last September. All that found of his body
after the explosion portion of his trunk. his
left arm, piece of leg and his feet. He was q
very careful man at his business and well liked
by all who knew him. James Pierce was forty-fve
years of age and leaves wife and four children liv-
found large enough for Identification. He had been
employed u blaster with glycerine since 1870,
working in the Hoosac Tunnel and in and about the
works. He has been employed by Professor Now
bray since last fall.
WRECKED STRUCTURE.
The building that the mon at work in was
wooden structure about forty feet square, and was
literally demolished. The other portion of the works
were damaged to some extent.
PREVIOUS EXPLOSIONS.
Professor Mowbray built these works in the winter
of 1858. and December 23 1870 the magazine blew
mp, killing Mr. vslser. the superintendent of the
works March II. 1871. the magazine blew up again.
but without injury to any person. The third explo-
sion occurred January 26 1876 this time killing
two men. Benjamin Cook and John Cullen and
wounding John Wallace. The fourth of the series
occurred in January. 1878. At this time Mr. Wilson.
the watchman. was killed. One very singular thing
about the explosion is that they have all save the
last occurred in the winter when the glycerine has
been frozen. and in this shape claimed to be per.
fectly safe.
PERFECTLY sAFR.
The accident to-day was the first for the dynamite
and it has heretofore been claimed that it was per-
fectly safe at all times and under oil
The singular fact connected with this and all
has always been absent from home ut the time.
This time he is in Canada. Let it be said Of Pro-
fessor Mowbray that he has always done all that
money could do for the families that have been left
destitute by these terrible calamities.
