A Final Effort Was Made to
Break Up the Terrific Jam
IN River Which Imperils
Many People.
DYNAMITE EXPLODED
WITH ELECTRICITY
The Report of the Explosion
Was Plainly Heard at But
faIo, Tons of Ice Being
Hurled SkyWard.

Niagara Falls, April 22.-Hundreds
of pounds of dynamite were exploded
between Youngstown and Niagara
Falls today in final effort to break
up the terrific ice jam in the Niagara
river which is imperilling thousands
of lives and threatens to destroy
property valued at millions of dollars.
Assistant Supt. Henry A. Kunze
and Forman Charles H. Tuttle of the
state department of public works, had
charge of the work of exploding the
dynamite. The first charge set off at
the mouth of the Niagara near
Youngstown.
Carried 500 Pounds.
A gang OF men, led by Mr. kunze
and Mr.. Tuttle, made their way out
on the ice by means of planks, and
selected a spot In the middle of the
river for making the initial test. Five
hundred pounds of dynamite were car
ried out to the place. The explosive
was deposited in huge crevasse in
the ice. Then Mr.. Kunze rugged up
an electrical Illuminating device, after
which everyone returned to shore.
Pressed the Button.
The pressing OF button set off the
dynamite, and the explosion was
heard in Buffalo. Tons of ice were
sent high into the air and showers
OF it fell in Youngstown and Niagara
on the lake, on the Canadian side.
After the first explosion Mr.. KunEe
arranged to set off second charge
consisting of 1000 pounds of dyna-
mite. He also ordered that charges
be set off at Lewiston and Niagara
Falls
The effect of these explosions, if
there is any. will not be apparent un-
til this evening, or tomorrow" said
Mr.. Kunze. The ice is soft and
mushy and the explosions will not
have the same effect as il the ice were
solid. We hope, however. to clear the
blockade of ice at the mouth OF the
river"
