EXPLOSION IN ICE PLANT
TWELVE BLOWN TO PIECES
 WHEN BOILERS BURST.
Pittsfeld Mass, Is Shaken as by an Earthquake-RemoVing Wreck
 age From Victims.

Pittstield, Mass, Dec. 30.-Fourteen men were blown into eternity and IS others were injured when the boilers in the plant of the Morewood Lake Ice company's plant exploded with roar that could be heard for miles The plant was shattered and some of the bodies were literally blown to pieces.
 Inc disaster is the worst that ever occurred in Pittsfeld.
 The plant is located a mile and half from the city, but the force of the detonation was so great that houses were rocked in Pittsfeld and windows broken.
 Ambulances and doctors were inn mediately rushed from the Mercy hos pital
 William Dunn, engineer in charge of the boilers, was among those in- stantly killed. The others were those working in the engine room and the adjoining ice house.
 he most of the wounded were re- moved to Mercy hospital, although some of the injured were hurt so bad ly that they were treated on the grounds by doctors.
 The confusion was so great around the plant that it was impossible to ascertain the cause of the disaster.
 The buildings were badly wrecked and the boilers were torn to bits. An investigation was started at once.
 Survivors of the disaster told har- rowing stories. One wounded man said that he was at work in the stor- age plant when a noise like the firing of a battery of artillery sounded in his ears and he was hurled against the wall as though thrown by giant hand. Then began a rain of wreckage. he said, which covered everything.
 An army of workmen set to work removing the wreckage that covered the bodies of the dead and wounded. Cries could be heard from beneath the debris, which shows that some of those imprisoned still lived.

and, instead of making fixed reports, it can only report on special call of congress or of the president.
 It's members are to appear with data before the senate committee on finance or the house committee on ways and means, the two committees which have to do with tariff legisla- tion. The commission is authorized to require confidential data from cor porations as to any subject, but must never disclose the source and must especially safeguard it from competi- tive interests.
 Costs to Be Investigated.
 An important provision of the Long worth bill authorizes the commission tc investigate the cost of production of all articles covered by the tariff, with special reference to the prices paid domestic and foreign labor, the prices paid for raw materials, wheth- CT domestic or imported, entering into the manufactured articles. the condi- tion of the domestic and foreign mar kets affecting the American products, including detailed information of the cost and of every element, together with all other facts which, in the commissions judgment, will be help ful to congress in providing equitable rates of duties on any article and in aiding the president and other off, cials in administering the customs laws.
 One section re-enacts the maximum and minimum clause of the Aldrich- Payne tariff law. Under the Long worth bill the five commissioners are to be appointed by the president, at first for two, three, four, five and six-year. terms, respectively, but these tenures Sadjust themselves to regular six-year terms for all.
