year-a starch explosion. AS soon as
the walls fell the building took fire.
When the news Of the accident spread
about the city the parents and friends
of those employed there flocked TO the
scene to learn the fate of their loved
ones. Soon as the firemen had subdued
the flames they set to work digging for
the dead, and up to 10 p. m. had taken
out three, Emma Kemper, Anna Beck
er and Charles Schublize. Those who
are still missing, supposed to be in the
ruins, are Louise Hummel, Andy Nc
Connel, George Kemper, and Johnnie
Kemper. The buildings and contents
are total loss; insured for $4,000.
