Findlay Novelty Company's
 Plant Goes Sky High.
MANY BODIES BLOWN TO PIECES
No Cause Assigned-One Girl Em- pIOyee's Body Found Two Hun- dred Yards Away-FactOry
 a Complete Wreck.

FINDLAY, O., May 23.-As result of an explosion ill the two drying rooms of the Lake Shore Novelty com pany's plant here Sunday morning sev- en persons are known to be dead, five are so seriously hurt that recovery is believed to be impossible, and twelve or fifteen are injured badly. From re- ports of the physicians ten of the less seriously injured may die as result of blood poisoning from the potash that was driven into their bodies.
 Five were killed instantly, and two died later at home.
 The injured who it is believed can not recover number five.
 The less seriously injured number about fifteen.
 Two employees are missing and are opposed to have been blown to atoms
 The Lake Shore Novelty works plant covered nearly ten acres of ground in the southwest part of the city and em- ployed nearly POO men, women and children. Railroad torpedoes and Fourth of July explosives were manu- factured.
 Owing to the large rush of orders the officials of the plant requested the em- ployees to report for duty yesterday About thirty complied with the re- quest
 Yesterday morning the residents of Findlay were startled by two explo- sions that shattered windows through out the city. The concussion was felt for miles around. Two magazines in separate rooms at the works let go al- ! most simultaneously with terrible re- ports. The exact cause of the explo- sion is not definitely known. It is sur missed that one of the Sherwood broth CTS, who were the only persons in the drying rooms, dropped large box of torpedoes, but this theory cannot be confirmed.
 Human forms were strewn considera- ble distances apart on the factory site. The remains of the Sherwood brothers
 were found in drying room No. man gled and almost unrecognizable. Their clothing was blown from their bodies save, a stocking on the right foot of Jay Sherwood.
 l The body of Edith Dillon, an en- ployee, was picked up 200 yards from where the explosion occurred. 1 The news of the catastrophe spread like wildfire throughout the county
 Every train and interurban car that has arrived in the city for the past ten
 hours was crowded The large plant is shattered into fragments, not one sin gle wall remaining. Bricks and timber can be found for half mile around.
