OF GIRLS
IN WILD PANIC
Explosion in U. S. Arsenal
Caused Them to Jump
From Windows
HUNDRED TAINTED IN MAD RUSH
shrieks of Women Caused Mad stam-
Pede For Safety, and Many Were
Iniured-Lswn strewn With Sense
less Victims.

philadelphia. Aug. 13.-During an
explosion Of cartridges at the United
States Arsenal at Frankford a wild
panic occurred among the women and
girls working in the building. With
screams and hysterical cries for help,
they jumped from windows or were
caught on the stairways. Four young
women were injured and fully 100
tainted during their h d rush. The
building was damaged. and the fire
that followed added to the danger and
confusion
These are the more seriously in
iured Bessie Mills, scalp cut; Annie
Tipping. nose broken, cut and bruised;
Pauline Branson, ankle hurt; Kate
Harrison. suffering from shock
The building where the explosion
occurred is a two-story brick struc-
ture. 100 feet long by about so feet
wide. It is used for loading cart
ridges with bullets, the powder being
placed in them in another part Of
the plant. Machines are used to place
the bullets in the shells. and, although
the origin Of the explosion is unknown,
one theory is that cartridges got
caught in the mechanism, or the COM
bustion was otherwise due to the con-
dition of the machines.
In the building. on both floors, fully
1875 girls we're working. There was a
loud explosion that was heard in the
most distant parts Of the arsenal
grounds. AS the detona.ion shook the
building the crash of falling glass and
shriaks of women alarmed the work:
ers and began the mad stampede to
safety. No one knew at what moment
the explosion would be repeated and
the structure collapse on their heads
Those who witnessed the panic say
the scene was one Of indescribable
horror.
The women leaped from the win
dows without thought Of consequences,
and lay sobbing and bleeding on the
lawns, only to be trampled on and
crushed by those who followed them.
Others tainted before they reached
the windows, and their possible dan
ger added to the terror Of the mo-
ment.
The windows of the building were
utterly shattered, and volumes of
smoke from the aperturos told of the
fire inside.
The four young girls injured and
100 who tainted were treated at the
infrmary of the arsenal and sent to
their homes in patrol wagons, hurry
call for which was sent in to the
Frankford station house. Most of the
women who tainted lived nearby, and
were cared for under the direction OF
Police Sergeant Ashton.
DR.. Pennebacker, the sugeon attach.
ed to the arsenal, attended to the in.
iured women as fast as they were res.
cued from the excited mass of hu.
manity, and those more seriously hurt
were carried into the arsenal for
treatment A complete list Of those
injured could not be obtained as many
of the worlSwomen we're hysterical
and, dazed and bleeding, rushed to
their homes in the neighborhood.
On the lawn in front of the build
ing where the explosion occurred
scores OF senseless women lay. They
had tainted during the excitement and
were only revived after medical treat
mept. Then they were removed tC
their home by friends.
