ire.
(By the Associated Press.)

Savon, Conn. Sept. 15.-The ex-
in a building of the Climax Fuse Com
pany here this afternoon, caused a
panic among twenty employees in the
| building and resulted in the death of
seven and injuries that doubtless will
prove fatal to several others.
There was no way of coping with
the flames which soon spread rapidly,
and in less than an hour after ne ex-
plosion occurred those who Wee UNI
able to escape were in the clutches of
fire that evntually burned their
bodies to ashes. AS the day wore
on, the great crowd that collected in
the hamlet saw the bNdies of men
and women roasting in the fire, while
they stood powerless even to check the
flames
The exact cause of the accident may
never be known, but it is the accepted
theory here, that in an effort to burn
out stoppage on one of the ma
Chimes workman caused an explo-
sion of a fuse with the hot iron he
held in his hand. Those who were in

caused a panic. Infammable ma
terial, however, was set on fire and
in a few moments the room was a
mass of flames. In an instant there
was a mad rush for the doors and
windows. and during the scramble
many were pushed back into the
building, whilS others weSa>> severely
burned.
Soon after tha building in which the
lives was lost was consumed, the fire
spread to the new structure which
was just completed at a cost of $685.

was Quilted, only the four walls re-

were reduced to ashes, making to-

is estimated to be 100000.

Evidence Contradictory to Massey.
1t is stated on good authority that
when the case is called for trial, the
accused attendants will be able to pro-
duce an eye witness to the whole trans
action who will contradict in toto
the evidence of Massey as to ticks
stricken with the slat which Nall
wrenched from the bench just before
his flight. They expect to prove by
this witness that the insane man
fought desperately, and that it took
the combined efforts of the four men
to overpower him, and that Nall
threw and severely beat Durham, in
particular, before the others succeed
ed in overpoWering him. AS to the
cut on the head, it is understood that
the attendants will testify that they
do not know how he came by it un-
less he was injured in some way in
getting through the barbed wire fence
or incidentally to the struggle which
attended his capture.

IF the mayor insists upon enforcing
his order to close the saloons on Sunday,
we shall request his excellency to close

refuses, legal action forcing entire sus-
