DEATH DEALT BY DYNAMITE.
Many Killed and Injured By An Ex-
plosiOn During Fire On a Ship.

Santander, Spain, Nov. A terrible
explosion occurred here last night in
which a number of persons were killed.
The shock of the explosion was so great
that the residents in further parts of the
city thought an earthquake had occurred,
and the place was about to be destroyed
The ship Volo with cargo of dyna-
mite, was lying at the quay last evening,
when, in some way not yet explained, she
caught fire.
A large crowd gathered in the vicinity
and the police, evidently unaware of the
dangerous character of the ships cargo,
made no attempt to drive them away
The governor of the province personally
directed the efforts of the firemen to ex-
tinguish the flames, though fully
aware of the danger he and the other
fire fighters We're in.
THE EXPLOSION.
While every effort was being made to
quench the flames, the crowd suddenly
heard a dull roar, which was followed by
a report that shook the city to its foun-
datiOnS.
Every house around the quay was
wrecked, walls being blown out as though
made of card board.
The loss OF life cannot vet be stated
with any degree of accuracy. 1t is known,
however, that many persons were killed
and very large number injured.
THE GOVERNOR NOT SEEN SINCE.
The governor has not been seen since
the explosion. His secretary, who was
standing beside him when the explosion
occurred, says he was stunned by the
shock, and when he regained his senses
he looked for the governor, but could not
find him. 1t is feared that he was killed
and his body blown out into the bay.
The commandant of the civic guards
and many officials and workmen We're
badly injured
The town was completely paralyzed by
the disaster and no attempt was subse-
quentiy made to eXtinguish the fire,
which was communicated to adjacent
quays by flaming brands thrown by the
exploding dynamite.
