history Of these works. The widest
rumors are prevalent regarding the
number Of killed and injured, the ex-
act number of which cannot be ascer-
tanned before morning. 1t is known
that seven We're killed and four seri-
ously injured.
The first heavy shock from the eX-
plosion was felt for many miles around
and was separately followed by two
lighter shocks. The smoke from the
works arose in such volumes that it
was Impossible for a time to perceive
the extent of the damage caused by the
explosion. 1t was said that the fire
was spreading and the main maya
zine was in iinminen; danger. The bu-
gle call was accordingly sounded for
members of the California naval re-
serves, who responded promptly, hur-
rying to the mills and assisting the
corps of fire fighters already on the
grounds.
As nearly as can be learned the pri-
mary cause of the disaster was the ex-
piosion of the cotton plant. The ig-
hitting of this plant caused the fire to
spread to the adjoining brush and small
building and was then communicated
to the powder mill fiat where are To-
Gated the houses of the employees of the
works. The employees and naval re-
serve boys worked heroically to pre-
vent the fire from spreading to the
smokeless powder plant
The scarcity of water in the creek
retarded the work of the volunteer fire
brigade. Shovels and other tools were
used instead of water in fighting the
flames. No doubt is entertained among
the officials of the works that the cx-
plosion was due to an accident Extra.

prevent treachery and no well-informed
man entertains the opinion that the
accident was the work of 4 Spanish SPY

thought the explosion will interfere
with the manufacture of smokeless
powder for the government.
The fire is now under control and all
danger is past. None of the
