Gas AND DYNAMITE EXPl0-
SION IN NEW YORK STATION
Twelve Killed and Thirty Injured When Dynamite and
Gas Wreck New Power Station of New York Cen
trail Road in New York City-Property Loss Will Ex-
coed Half Million-Cause of Explosion Mystery.

New York, Dec. 9.-Twelve per.
sons, including two women, and
thirty injured in a double explosion
of gas and dynamite in the new cleo
trio power house of the New York
Central railroad shortly after eight
clock this morning. The force OF
the explosion shattered hundreds OF
windows in the big hotels. apartment
houses of the neighborhood, and the
railroad terminals, causing great
alarm to the guests.
The dynamite blast picked up a
north bound trolley car, lifted it in
to the air and sent it crashing down
upon an automobile which was pass
ing on the other side OF the street,
Four of the passengers were killed
The railroad service was only tenn
pOrariy interrupted.
The new substation power house,
where the explosion occurred, is at
F'iftieth street and Lexington ave-
nue., which is half a dozen blocks
north of the Grand Central station.
The explosion partly wrecked the
fire engine house nearby and pre-
vented the firemen from getting the
apparatus into the street A NUM-
Der of priests hurried to the scene
and administered the last rites.
The power house was built %
stone and brick, six stories high. and
took fire after the explosion, the in
terror being practically burned out.
Just what caused the double ex-
plosion probably never will be
known. From the officials of the
railroad it was learned that there
were many workmen in the building
at the time of the explosion. and but
few of these were accounted for.
In the Bible Teachers Training
school, directly opposite the power
house. 125 men and women on their
way TO breakfast, were thrown to the
floor by the blast. Many men and
women were injured and several ia
ken to the hospitals. The damage
to the power house and other build
lngs it is likely will exceed half a
million dollars.
Numerous theories are advanced
to account for the explosion. One is
that a crowbar falling on the third
rail caused a short circuit, ignited
some gas escaping from tank. One
workman says he saw smoke coming
from a motor car and thought the
sparks from the ire set off the gas.
The police are making an exami-
nation of the ruins and are of the
opinion that the first explosion oc-
Cured in some gas tanks which was
communicated to some dynamite that
one of the officials of the New York
Central said he understood was in the
power house.

ISLAND SINKS

A message from Salvador reached
here today Announcing the sinking OF
Il small island in the Ilopango la
COON, southeast of the city of San
Salvador, following an earthquake
shock. 1t is asserted, though with
out confirmation, that about 10 per-
sons were killed.
Sinking of the Island.
The sinking of the island is said
to have followed a series of shocks
which were felt throughout the re-
public. The tremblors began early
in the evening and increased in fire.
quency and violence as night pro-
crossed until about midnight, when
the watchers on the shores heard the
sounds of guns from the people on
the island.
Soon after that great bonfires were
lighted on the island and at about l
o'clock q boatload of frightened wo-
men and children reached the main
land. The survivors reported that
other boats were coming, as the is
land was slowly sinking.
Boatmen Fear to Venture Out.
The boatmen of the mainland were
wired to send aid but in view Of the
continued shocks and the steadily in
creasing violence of the sea in the
lagoon they were afraid TO venture
out. As they watched another and
more violent tremor shook the main
land and the fire and other lights
on the island vanished.
In the morning not vestige of the
island remained.
The Ilopango lagoon was the
scene of volcanic eruption in 1880.

National Forest.

Washington, d. c., Dec. 19.-The
President has signed a proclamation
eliminating 1850 acres from the
Chelan National Forest. These
changes are the result of a careful
field examination made by the L. S.

The largest elimination is located
west and southwest from Conconully

position for the Quincy
Country.

The great body of sheet water
which underlies the Quincy flat is
coming to be regarded more and
more of immense Importance as an
aid to irrigation. A number of small
plants have been installed for the
purpose of raising the water from
wells to the rich soil above. These
projects have been uniformly sue
cessful. On all parts of this Quincy
flat it is possible to secure flow
of water at depth of approximate
ly one hundred feet. This flow is
found to be ineXhaustible provided
the we'll is sunk through a certain
stratum of rock. The well is sunk
approximately two hundred feet, the
water then rises one hundred feet in
the we'll and remains stationary.
For some years a number of Ia
coma men have been interested in
this country. More or less work has
been done towards it's development,
but thus far the land has been cult
waited without water. A number OF
these men spent the past few days
making a Thorough investigation of
this region. Among these were l.. l..
Benbow. Newt Peer and Messrs. Nc
Farland & Mcfarland.
While nothing has yet been given
out in reference to the project, it is
the intention of these men to irri-
gate a large section and put it into
fruit These men investigated some
of the pumping plants in the vicin-
ity of Wenatchee today. and left on
the west bound train at noon.

C.A.bATTLES HOME
FROM EAST
Found Times Good There
and NO Indication Of
Depression.

G. A. Battles, who has been east
for the past thirty days, returned
hame yesterday. He spent most Of
the time at his old home in Findlay,
Ohio. Mr.. Battles went east with
one of the fruit trains sent east by
the Wenatchee Valley Fruit Grow
ers association, and although he had
a pleasant trip, he states that he is
glad to get back home again.
Mr.. Battles found financial condi-
tons very good in the east, though
probably not as good as in the west.
The business men are all looking
forward to good year in 1911.
There was a general sentiment of ap-
prevail regarding the recent election
and everybody is satisfied that tho
good times will continue and that
there will be no financial depression.
While in Toledo, Mr.. Battles found
a great many western apples, but tho
Oregon apples. On investigation,
however, Mr.. Battles found boxes
marked. m. Koran. Wenatchee; y
II. w Reeves, Wenatchee," and
some bearing the names of other
Wenatchee growers. The names and
varieties, however. were in the small
rubber stencil and Mr.. Battles is
more satisfied than ever that every
box of apples which goes out of this
valley should be marked with a full
end Ia hp1 on thp end Of tha hoy adj
vertising Wenatchee and Wenatchee
apples. If this were done, the deal
ers would then know that the apples
came from the Wenatchee valley
rather than from Oregon.
Apples Not Less Than ) Cents Apiece.
Ohio people were paying this year
from cents apiece for their apples
to two for % cents, or $2.75 to So
per box.
