workmen Msxe Gruesome Discovery
at Foot of Elevator Shaft in Los
Angeles Times Ruins.

Shovelers engaged in searching Ioi
human bodies in the ruins OF the Los
Angeles Times building today became
upon gruesome sight when they
located the remains of seven persons
at the foot of the elevator shaft Of
the building. These, with the five
corpses in the city morgue. bring the
total deaths SO far, to IL known dead
The scores of laborers working In
the ruins reached the seven corpses
only after derricks had been called
into action TO lift the huge steel
Orders and pieces OF masonry which
covered them.
Narrowing scenes were presented
in the crowd surrounding the build
ing when the corpses were lifted Out
bit by bit and dumped into morgue
baskets.
Employees of the Times viewed the
fragments of bodies and made an ef
fort to identity them. They found II
practically impossible, 80 badly char
red were the bodies, several Of them
having been burned beyond all hu
man semblance.
The police do not entirely agree with
Detective Burns that nitroglycerine
was the explosive used. Police experts
say they have evidence that the ex'
plosive Was dynamite.
Dynamite found under the porch oil
F. j. Zeehandelaer's summer home has
been identified as part OF large
amount purchased at the Giant works
at Oakland on Sept. 10 by three men
two OF whom gave the names or VII
liam Morris and A. j. Bryson. The
third mans name is not known. Inc
men took the dynamite TO launch
and left the Giant works.
Earl Rogers, attorney for the Times
who is a dynamite expert, is following
this clue with the police. Rogers
thinks this dynamite was taken TO Los
Angeles by boat. that $50 pounds was
used on the Times building and that
the remainder Is still In Los Angeles
Despite the confidence OF the police
and special detectives that the Times
was deliberately blown up. many still
cling TO the theory that the explosion
was caused by an accumulation Oh gas
and that dynamite had nothing TO DO
with ii. Union labor bodies all over
the state are Offering their assistance
to run down the alleged dynamiters.
The police today announced tha'
they had found four one-pouno suehs
of dynamite and a box of explosive
CAPS last night near the plant OF me
Maier Brewing Co. The plant has oeen
recently threatened several times WITH
dynamiting. Willis Jordan, a negro
laborer. found the explosive In va
cant house adjoining the brewery
whether the police suspect any con
rection between the finding OF THIS
dynamite and the blowing up OF the
Times plant has not been annouhctu'
The police are guarding the nome
~ Cen Harrison Gray Otis, proprf-
etor OF the ines, where a dynami.e
homb was found Saturday AFTERNOON
Guards are also watching over the
plants of several concerns recently
involved in strikes.
1hrce arrests have been made since
the explosion. One OF tie suspects
IS an alleged anarchist, Martin Eag'
an.
In the hope of oota'ning informa-
ton as to the perpera.ors or the out
rage. Mayor Alexander increased the
city's offer OF reward today to $lO.-
Oh.
This. together with the offers Of To-
cal newspapers and labo- organiza-
lions. whose leaders have announced
a determination to assist in the search
