EIGHT PERSONS killed.
Terrible Result of a Boiler Explo--
sion in the Doremus Laun-
dry in Chicago
MANY employees ARE ALSO INJURED.
Most OF b Victims Were Young
Women Bodies Mangled Almost
Beyond Observation-Disclosures of the
Explosion Felt Nearly a Mile-Pro--
prietOr Under Arrest.

Chicago, March 12.-Eight persons,
are known to have been killed, four
are missing and nearly two score
sustained injuries more or less severe,
as the result of a boiler explosion
which occurred yesterday morning in
the Doremus laundry at No. 45S West
Madison street. The explosion oc-
Cured at S:14, and the roar made by
it'could be heard for nearly a mile
away.
Building a Wreck.
The force of the explosion COM
pletely wrecked the building occupied
by the laundry and damaged adjacent
structures. The roof of the laundry
building was lifted high above the
tops of the walls, and when it settled
down it buried the inmates of the
place beneath a mass of debris, from
which the dead and MANNED were
taken with difficulty.
The Killed.
Most of the victims were young
women, many of them scarcely out of
their teens, who were employed in
the laundry. Those who were not
killed outright were unable to re-
lease themselves from their perilous.
positions, because of the tons of
weight upon their limbs and bodies.
The dead are George Phil, Catherine,
Kelly, Minnie Olson, Frank Hanne-
mann, Bessie Kucaba, Katheryne.
Voss, Martha jacob, Emma Sc
breska.
Proprietor Surrenders.
A. F. Doremus, proprietor of the
laundry, reached his place soon after
the explosion, but was able to give
no reason for the explosion. He as
serted that the boiler vas in good
condition. He voluntarily surren-
dered to the police and went to the
station, where he remained to await
the result of an investigation into
the accident.
Engineer OverwOrked.
The records show that George S.
Phil, the engineer in charge of the
boiler, had been a licensed engineer
for nine years, but charges r made
that he was required to look after
all the machinery in the laundry es-
tablishment in addition to taking
care of the engine and was so much
overworked he could not give the
necessary attention to the engine
boiler. Phil was killed in the explo-
sion.

Thomas A. Edison, ST., that genius
of electricity, has invented a real stor-
age battery. Without going.into tech
nicalities it can be briefly stated that
in a storage battery is stored enough
chemical energy to produce an cleo

from a storage battery, sc to speak.
And, of course, the current can be
used in any of innumerable ways,
to do any of the innumerable things
done by the current produced at a sta

A British regimental physician has
investigated the effect upon soldiers
of regular marching in disciplined
bodies. The uniformity of the SOL
dier's step causes the indefinite repe-
tition of a shock of the brain and
bones, and consequently the mode of
motion is far more deleterious than
an irregular walk. He attributes the
peculiar aches and pains often felt
by the men to the fact that the same
parts of the body receive the series
of shocks. AS a remedy, he suggests
an India-rnbber heel for all military
boots.
