MIR. MooRNICK's VERSION.
Believes the Explosion Was Caused
Through Dropping Of Giant Powder.

w. S. Mccormick returned from his
Park City trip late yesterday after
noon, and in conversation this morning
with a News representative, said
that there was really no telling how the
explosion started. But the supposltion
most reasonable to his mind was that
the man who went into the magazine
dropped a box Of the giant powder
which blew up. The mere carrying Of
a candle or lighted cigarette in there
would not be likely TO cause the eX-
plosion of giant which explodes for the
most part only through percussion
Only fraction OF the magazines con-
tents exploded. a fair share OF the re-
malnder apparently lgniting and burn
ing which generated the poisonous
gases that caused so many deaths. Mr.
Mccormick does not lay much stress up
on the conclusion by Itself as such a
source Of disaster as has been imagined
and states that the men on the ninth
level had their doubts at the time as 10
whether there had been any explosion
at all. He remarked that giant was
N'lN hhNtlAilll ts an NAlibolNt ~
merely handling. He called "a mind
how locomotive ran smash into
car containing giant at Bingham some
time ago. and yet there was no eXplo-
sion. He also knew Of a case where
wagon load Of the stuff was turned over
down an embankment for quite a dis
lance and Yet there was no explosion.
Then, again. the mere dropping Of a
package will explode II.
Mr.. Mccormick said that there IL no
law preventing the storage Of giant
below the surface in the mines,
and In fact that Is the best and SAT-
est means Of handling It. II such
amounts AZ are needed daily are taken
into the mine, there Is danger In this
frequent transportation from the
surface. But where il is stored within
easv reach Of where II is to be used,
danger from long and frequent transfer
IS avoided. All mines do this, and the
fact that so much explosive material
was stored cuts no figure Mr.. McCor-
nick said that no damage was done to
the mine, and operations are being
carried on as usual.

LAW IN THE CASE.
Attorney General Breeden's Opinion
Regarding Explosives.

Atty Gen Breeder issued late yester-
day afternoon the following opinion
There is no general law In Utah re-
garding the quantity OF explosives
which mining companies are allowed
to keep underground, except In the case
OF coal mines, and these are allowed to
keep but six and one-half pounds. UNI
less special permission Is granted by
the state Inspector Of coal mines.
take II that every city, or county, has
law regarding the holding Of ex-
plosives within It's limits, and the COM
pany IN whose mine this accident &C.
CURED would be governed by the laws
Of Summit county or the ordinances
Of Park City"
