Explosion and Fire Wipes Out
Los Angeles Times and

DEATH LIST GROWS;
CASUALTIES APPALLING
Manager Declares Enemies OF
Newspaper Had Repeatedly
Threatened to Exterminate 1t.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Oct. 1.-The
Times, one of the best-known news
papers of the Southwest, of which
General Harrison Gray Otis Is editor
and principal owner, v-as destroyed by
an explosion and fire shortly after L
o'clock today. resulting in the death
of upwards of twenty Of its employees
and financial loss of nearly $5O0,o00.
The management places the blame
for the explosion on the labor unions.
with which the paper has long been
engaged In bitter warfare. 1t is charged
that unidentified persons set off a
charge of dynamite in a blind alley
ing, completely wrecking H.
Building ColIapses.
The explosion was heard for miles.
All windows in the vicinity of the
Times building at First street and
Broadway were shattered. Between
fifty and seventy-five employees were
in the structure at the time of the ex-
plosion, and until the whole list can
be checked over 1t will not be known
how many lives were lost
The responsible heads of the paper
including Assistant General Manager
Harry Chandler, had narrow escapes
from death, many of them having left
their offices a short time before the ex-
plosion.
The building was equipped with gas
fittings, and the force of the explosion
tearing these pipes into bits, released
gas, which was instantaneously ig-
nited. No other cause but that of
dynamite explosion was advanced by
witnesses, except one, a Western
Union telegraph operator. William Fir
man, who said that he detected the
odor of gas throughout the building
earlier in the night and had called at
tention to it.
Two Suspects Held
A few minutes after the explosion the
police arrested man named Harry
Planke, making his way through the
Broadway tunnel few blocks distant.
He was locked up on suspicion. William
Irwin was arrested later in the morn
ing.
Wesley Reeves, secretary to Manager
Chandler, has not been found since the
fire. Mr.. Chandler believes his secre-
tary lost his life. Chandler's office was
wrecked by the explosion
Mr.. Chandler said 'There is no doubt
that this outrage can be- laid at the
doors of the labor unions. They have
destroyed the building and plant and
have killed a number of odr men: we

WORLDS RECORD
FOR ALTITUDE IS
SHATTERED AGAIN
Nj. WynmaIen, Aviator at Mour-
melon, Ascends to Height
of 9,12l Feet.

MOURMELON, France, Oct. I'M.
Wynmalen. the aviator, established q
new worlds record for altitude today,
rising to height of 9,121 feet.
The earlier best mark of S,409 feet
was made by the late George Chavez.
Wynmalen rose until his motor failed
him and then made a perilous descent.
He suffered intensely and his exciting
experience was similar to that of Leon
Morane, who. one September 8 ascended
S271 feet establishing a record that
stood until eclipsed by Chavez.
Wynmalen started at 6:2S o'clock and
warmed up by circling the aerodrome
several times. testing his engine. When
everything was working ship-shape he
gradually rose in a spiral course. At
an altitude of $500 metres he encoun-
tered biting cold. His ears and fingers
were numbed and an icy gale slashed
his face. checked and at times drove
back the machine Nevertheless the
aviator continued the struggle upwards.
Finds Fuel Exhausted.
At height of 2,7S0 metres OH feer),
the motor stopped and Wynmalea
found that his fuel was exhausted.
There was nothing left for him to
do but to plane down to the earth.
This was accomplished in thirteen min
utes, but the graduated descent re-
quired battle with wind which
threatened to dash the biplane to the
ground. The airman landed safely, but
was thoroughly exhausted. An ex-
animation showed that the carbureter
had been frozen at the high altitude,
thus Gripping the power of the ma
chine The fight was official and the
record will stand.
Wynmalen is a newcomer in the
world of aviation. He first attracted
international attention on September
20, when at Bourg he rose to a height
of 1856 feet. 1t is notable that the
most sensational feats of aviation re-
Gently have been accomplished by com
paratively unknown airmen.
