They had only fairly entered when
the nitro-glycerine acid let loose, and
for fully minute black cloud of
smoke hid the killed and injured from
view.
Then one by one the less injured men
came out Of the pail Of smoke and all
dashed back in search Of their COM
panions.
Fire Is Extinguished.
The mutilated body Of Superintend-
ent Pierce lay where he had fallen in
side the neutralizing building and close
beside him were found Wallace and
Woodisie, torn and disfigured.
Coming from all directions of the
plant, the employees Of the twenty-five
other buildings crowded to the scene of
the accident and rescued the workmen.
Fire had broken out in the debris Of

subdued by. the workmen.
An examination, Of the other build,

The scene of the accident Is seven
miles from Ashland, and the force of
the explosion was plainly felt here.
