MANY ESCAPE
DEATH TRAP.
EXPLOSION in Glucose Factory at
Shadyside- Six Hundred Work
ers in Refinery.

SHADYSIDE, n. j., May "a score
of men employed in the engine IL dy-
namo rooms of the New York Glucose
| company's plant on the west bank of
the Hudson river, opposite G YORK,
were more or less injured by the ex-
plosion of Il big steam pipe. The ROOF
of the building was blown off, and the
wreckage caught fire. q.
More than GOO men were at work in
and about the building at the time, INC
the panic that followed the explosion
spread among the 1.400 other employ
ees of the plant. The appearance on
the scene of the wives and children or
the workmen added to the confusion.
The report soon got about that a score
of men had been killed and that many
more. were buried under the fallen
walls. The police and superintendent
Cushing of the works had great diff
Guilty in assuring the women that the
reports were greatly exaggerated.
The works had just opened when
without any warning the steam plant
of the feed house, which ndjoins build
ings in which large amounts OF chemi-
Gals were stored, blew up.
BY the force of the conclusion the
front and rear walls of the building
fell inward, and the structure instantly
took fire. The men rushed to the yards
just in time to escape being buried un-
der the falling walls.
Daniel Fitzgerald found his way
! blocked by n mass of debris. He only
reached a place Of safety by crawling
several hundred feet over a hot iron
pipe and was picked up unconscious.
Patrick Lynchsky, driver of the chem
ical wagon, was blown from his seat
and was painfully but not critically
hurt.
John Russell, who stood near Lynch
sky, was so badly cut about the head
that an ambulance surgeon had to take
fifty stitches in his scalp. Russell sub
~sequently died in Union hospital.
The local Edgewater fire department,
the police, three New York fireboats
and marines from the gunboat Truxton
anchored out in the stream did heroic
work in preventing the spread of the
flames to adjoining structures, in which
highly explosive materials were stored.

NEW AUTO LINE.
FOR ROOSEVELT
Runs from Elizabeth, Through
Railway, to the New Borough
Trial Trip Monday.

What the members of the East
Jersey Motor and transportation
Company called a demonstrating
trip" was made Monday afternoon in
an automobile from Elizabeth to
Railway, East Railway, Roosevelt,
Sewaren, Boynton Beach, Wood
bridge and back. The auto was a
large one, intended to carry twenty
persons comfortably, of the kind
suitable for use these days where
stage coaches formerly might have
done SERVICE,
After several unsuccessful at
tempts to have a trolley line built on
Railway avenue, Elizabeth, a number
of Elizabeth, Linden and Railway
men decided to press autos into SER
vice to carry passengers between
Elizabeth and the places named.
Some trouble has been experienced
in getting autos as promptly as the
newly incorporated company would
like, but it is now expected that .
regular service will be started by
July L.
Mondays spin over the proposed
route was for the purpose of testing
a type of auto, to get a line on sched-
ules, and acquire general information
necessary in getting things in shape.
The auto left the court house in
Elizabeth at 2:30 O'Clock and reach
ed a central point in Railway in TWEEN
ty minutes without any effort to make
speed. ProHortionately good time
was made between Railway and tho
places lying along the Staten Island
Sound shore. On the way back to
this city side strips were taken to
acknowledgement the Linden cehleterr
les.
Those interested in. the new line
expressed themselves as well pleased
with the trip. Better time can be
made than if there was a direct troll
ley service, and the ride is more COM
Portable. The auto used Monday
had a canopy to Keep out sun or rain
and for further protection, if neces-
sary, the sides could be let down. 1t
is proposed that the machines to be
put in service will be SO fitted out,
also.
Four or five autos will be placed
in operation at the outset and the
number will be increased if the pat
ronage demands it. The company
( proposes to do a baggage and ex-
press as well as passenger business
AS far as plans have matured, 1t is
the intention to have autos leave
Elizabeth every half hour. The rates
of fare will be: Elizabeth to Linden,
five cents; to Railway, ten cents; TO
Roosevelt. twenty cents. 4a,
Those who were or the trial trip
were George w. Bauer, president of
the East Jersey Motor and Transpor-
tation Company; Sidney Harris, A.
f. KRISTEN, H. Cries, A. Cries, H. B,
| Robinson, H. s. Barnes, Railway;
