KILLED By NATURAL GAS
A Terrific Explosion of Natural Gas
Occurs at Columbus, Ohio.
Six People Killed and Thirty Seri-
ously Injured in Moment.
The Injured Quickly Rescued From
the Jaws of Death.

COLUMBUS, Jan. pa Six people
were killed AMI thirty injured more or less
seriously, by an explosion of natural gas In
this city, earl this evening. Some of tn
injured are IN a critical condition and
may die. A few minutes after ) clock
the fire department was called to the cor
ner of High and Main streets, where it
was said an explosion had occurred in the
one story dwelling corner of Wall and
Noble alleys. An excited crowd of on
lockers rushed into the narrow alley with
the fremen, and pushed up to the house
from which the cries were heard
coming. Immediately afterwards 1t was
reported that the explosion was of d gaso-
line stove and that the fire was under con-
troll The crowd was just preparing to
walk away when a terrific explosion rent
the air. A sheet of flame burst from the
building northwest corner of Noble and
Wall alleys-and in an instant the mass of
bricks, beams and stone that constituted
the two-story building were flying through
the air. The scene was terrible The
people fled shrieking in all directions, and
the alley was instantly covered with a mass
of debris, from which came the crys and
means of the injured. Then men and
women with torn clothing and blood stream
ing from cuts staggered from the ruins
and ran across the street. Everything
was confusion, but, as quickly as possible,
the police and fremen organized and began
the work of searching through the mass of
bricks and timber for the unfortunate
victims. Three were takeu out dead.
They were Charles Decht, John Seymour
(coloredO and Mrs. P Merrott Fifty
people women and children-were
injured by burns, cuts or bruises, and it is
possible, though not probable, that other
bodies may be found in the ruins of the
building tomorrow. A daughter of Mrs.
Merrott is one of the most serious
ly injured. After the explo-
sion she ran into the street
with her clothing mass of flames. A
fireman turned the hose on her and ex-
tinguished the fire. Every stitch of cloth
ing was burned from her body as far dem
as the waist. She will hardly recover.
The explosion, as near as can be ascer-
tainad, resulted from the accumulation of
natural gas in the cellar of Merrott's house
it having leaked in from the street main.
Besides destroying the house and the
block next to it, the house on the other
side of the allev was completely wrecked

TO PREPARE FOR WAR.
Senate Committee on Naval Affair Have
Decided to Build Some War Ships


WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-The senate
committee on naval affairs today decided
upon the policy which will govern it dur
ing this congress in the work of building
up the navy This is, in brief, the great
line of battle ships like the English Ben
Bow should be constructed at once Sena-
tors Chandler and Mcpherson, however,
are not in accord with the decision reached
and majority and minority reports will be
submitted to the senate. Senator STAN
ford is not wholly committed to the de-
cision reached.
The naval policy board appointed by
Sec. Tracy, made recommendations for
building ten first class battle ships of TO-
900 tons each; eight first class of 5000
tons each; twelve second class, 7, 100 tons

er it is advisable at this time to begin
with constructing the immense line of

policy of building fast cruisers and defer
building huge line of battle ships until
we had larger number of cruisers or there
was some exigency calling for their con-
struction On this issue the committee
divided, the majority agreeing with the
policy of the board, and Hale was instruct
ed to report favorably the bill introduced
