out following the explosion. added to the
horror. The mill was partly wrecked
and the entire plant was compelled TO
close down.
The list of killed and injured is as fol
lows:
Killed:
DAVID MATTHEW'S, a heater, mar
THOMAS B. EVANS, a heater, mar
7. WILLIAM THOMAS, heater,

JOHN WARMINSKI, a heater.

burned about the head and breast.
FREDERICK HERB, a helper. ~
years old, skull fractured and burned
all over the body.
The explosion occurred Just as the
night force was leaving and the day
force was coming on duty, so that there
were only a few men in the mill at the
time. If it had happened n half hour
later the list of dead and injured would
have been appalling. 1t occurred in the
14-inch department and the conclusion
was terrific. Buildings were shaken q
mile away, and dust filed the air fol
two or three blocks. 1t entered open
windows and nearly suffocated persons
who were aroused by the road and the
shock. Immediately following the ex-
plosion the wreckage took fire and this
added ito the difficulties encountered
in reseling the burned and mutilated
victims.
When the boiler burst section OF II
weighing four tons was blown through
the roof and crushed into the side OF
the house of Gregory Sanders, ON
Wright's Alley. about 200. yards distant.
The building, which was Of frame, was
wrecked, but the occupants escaped with
a bad fright. This flying portion Of the
boiler tore down the central supports of
the roof, which fell In and partially
burned some OF those injured.
The cause of the explosion has not
vet been determined The damage to
the plant was heavy, but the tirm can
not estimate it at this time.

GENERAL LUDLOW OBJECTS
PRESENTS A TYPEWRITER
AFFIDAVIT.
Military Governor of Havana Wishes
His Statements to Have as Large a
Circulation as Those of Miles.

WASHINGTON, January 27.-The
war investigating commission today
received and gave out an affidavit from
General Ludlow, now military govern
or of Havana, which the general had
forwarded in lieu of personally appear
ing in Washington. The typewriter
affidavit was principally in answer to
the statement of Gen. Miles before the
commission in reference to the lack of
preparation made by the engineer
corps, of which he ludlow had been
the chief officer in the field.
General Ludlow says: IF newspa-
per clippings sent to me by friends in
dictate correctly the nature of General
Miles statements and of the RESPONSE
bility which is therein made to attach
to me for any shortcomings that may
be supposed to have existed in connec-
ton with the embarkation and disem-
barkation of the Santiago expedition,
| beg leave, disclaiming all intention of
disrespect, to express surprise at the
statements made"
General Ludlow incorporates in his
statement a report of a rather warm
controversy he had with General Miles
at the army headquarters in Washing
ton after the return from Montauk. in
which General Miles had said that
General Ludlow's fighting at Santiago
was very good, but his engineering was
very bad"
General Ludlow said that he refuted
this statement at the time, pointing
out that he had done all the engineer
ing work that the time and crcum-
stances permitted; that the Santiago
expedition was not an engineering
campaign but a race between the ply
steal endurance of the army and the
Cuban malaria, and that if the army
had stopped to build railroads and
bridges it would been on it's back be-
fore the surrender instead of after.
In conclusion General Ludlow re-
quested that the commission should
give his statement as much publicity
as the statement of General Miles.
