An Explosion Causes Death and
Ruin in Times, Los Angeles, Cal.

the rumors of attempted outrages set
the. populace of Los Angeles in state
of mind bordering on panic. Hun
dreds of policemen and detectives
were busy in every direction running
down clues and endeavoring to locate
the perpetrators OF the crimes. But
two arrests have been made and
these were only on suspicion.
The city couAsil met in special ses-
sion and approp kted $4,000 for the
purpose of detaNQining the cause of.
The Times eUpl ion, and provided
reward of $e;5Ql flor the capture OF
those responsible
Mayor Alexander and the city coun-
Gil, meeting with other city officers
and labor union leaders during the
day, mutually agreed to call off the
big union labor parade planned for
Monday as a demonstration against
local conditions alleged to be hos
tile to the interests of union labor.
The original suspicion that the dis
aste rwas dut to the discharge of high
explosives was practically confirmed
by the finding Of other bombs, and the
statements of those persons in the
building or nearby at the time of the
explosion. 1t is also practically GER
tain that the seat of the explosion was
in the narrow alleyway that separated
the two buildings occupied by The
Times.
The death list of the disaster will
probably total at least 70 There are
four known dead and IS missing
whose bodies almost to a certainty
lie in the still smoking ruins of The
Times building,
Harry Andrews, managing editor of
the paper, is personally directing the
work of rescue. Frank Paafnger,
cashier of the newspaper, estimates
the less to the building at $45O,OO0
Harvey c. Elder, assistant city ed
itor. burned and fatally injured leap
ing from the burning building; died in
hospital.
In addition there are about 20 in
jural, some of whom may die.
Foreman Graybill, of the composing
room, in which +he full force of the
explosion was felt, and where the
greatest direct damage was done, is
firmly of the opinion that it was due
to dynamite. and that its seat was in
the alleyway.
His statement is the clearest yet OBJ
tainable. He said:
Il was standing near the center of
the composing room when all at once
a terrific force from below seemed to
raise section of the floor clear to the
roof. The upheaval came between
two linotype machines. Flames and
broken timbers flew in all directions.
The force Of the thing was indescriba-
Bile. Grant Moore, machinist, was
directly over the spot where the i'm
pact came through the floor. His body
was hurled against the ceiling. A. Jor-
dan, head setter, and E. 4. WATSON,
galley man, were nearest to him,
and they, too, were hurled against the
ceiling of the composing room.
Every one of the typesetting ma
chimes were thrown down and they
were hurled in all directions"

indianapolis. Ind-President James
M. Lynch of the International Typo
graphical union, who was seen by a
representative Of the Associated Press,
made the following statement relative
to- the explosion that wrecked the
plant of the Los Angeles Times:
"The Los Angeles Times has for
many years been bitter, unrelenting
and unreasoniilg enemy of trades I'M
ionism, and it ~ characteristic of The
Times management that Immediately
after the explosion which wrecked its
plant and without awaiting any in
vestigation as to the cause of the ca
tastrophe, it should charge the disas-
ter to trades unions, as was done by
The Times .assjstant general manager.
We have defended ourselves against
the attacks made by The Times as
best we could, but we have always
fought fair.
'eThe International Typographical
union is not law-breaking. dynanlit-
ing institution. It's record of more
than 90 years existence is an honor
able one, and entirely free from resort
to violence of any kind.
mo one regrets the Times catas-
trophe more than | do, and especially
the loss of life following the explo-
sion.
1--WE are determined to protect
ourselves. on the other hand, against
the opportunity that would be en-
braced by General Otas and his SUBJ
ordinates to attempt to fasten the
explosion on the trades unions. ]
caused to be sent to our representative
in Los Angeles the following tele-.
gram:
"'In conjunction with president and
board of trustees, No. ia, take such
measures as may appear necessary to
protect international Typographical
union and LOCAL union from any charge
of completely with alleged dynamiting
of Times office. Press reports con-
vince us that explosion was caused
by faulty gas mains and due entirely
to insantiary conditions of The Times
plant"

Most remarkable was the enter
prise shown in the issuance OF the
Democrats special edition. The
ten pages personally gotten up by
Mr. walker took but three weeks OF
Els time. He reported and wrote
the contents, had the pictures taken
and the cuts made. read the proofs
and published and, circulated the
edition within three weeks only.
His Jnly apology Is that it was im=
possible to call on every one In 50
short time, else the edition would
have been OF still greater proper
lions.
However, in the limited time at
his command, Mr.. Walker seems 70

ton already feels beneficial effects Of
such able exploitation OF its adj

Meetinps IN Washington.

Democratic inconsistency on sub
ject that gave the press of that party
in this state great deal amount Of
worry the last several years is e1-
posed by the Wheeling Intelligenccr:
The news OF the gathering of a
large bunch OF Democratic poll
ticians including Col. Joseph Call
ton, GIon. John w. Davis, Hon. John
J. Cornwell, the various Democratic
congressmen and other Democratic
leaders of Washington, sounds
strangely familiar. Time was few
years ago, when the Democratic
press of this state frothed at the
mouth over any casual meetings OF
the Republicans OF this state at
Washington Many heated columns
of yirtuous indignation were poured
forth over the idea OF the politics of
this state being dominated from
Washington. Now, however. Wash
ington is found to be very con-
venient place for statesmen and
would-be statesmen to gather. First,
it has the alluring lights that are
pleasing to the gentlemen of the
rural districts. Seconoy At IS POANS
easily reached and greatness is al
ways there on tap.
The Inte1ligencer does not wish to
indulge in any unkind comments on
the Democratic politicians who have
already begun to journey to Wash
ington for the purpose of impressing
their Importance upon the Washing
ton newspapers and incidentally
shine in the light of reflected glory
Some Of them haven't enough to do
to keep them at home. Others look
ing forward to jobs with more or
less eagerness. It's worth while to
know, however, that these meetings
occur, and they Will probably con
ttnue to occur so long as the ma
tional capital is so conveniently close
to West Virginia's borders.

west virgfnia's Democratic press
is still very nervous over the future
of its party. The afaiction seized It
the next day after the election and it
has ever since pursued a course that
conveys the idea that it has no con-
fdence in those selected to represent
the people at Charleston and even
washington. 1t takes the position
of a guardian toward a ward, when
il says, now, do not do that but
do this" and it evidently believes its
ward is quite refractory.

Woo AM I?

1 came from Denmark. Santa Claus
adopted me there from big family
of brothers and sisters, and said to
me, Every time you see a letter or a
package going OFF to bring a Merry
Christmas to somebody, you go along.
I'll make your gift more enjoyable; III
bring more happiness than you can
think Of" And then, said Santa Claus
to me, folks will stick you to their
letters and parcels and send you all
over the world" was so glad when
he told me that. but I was happier
still, when pretty lady with bright
red cross on her sleeve, just like the
one on my face, said to a man who
wanted me, He costs only a penny.
and every penny you give for him
goes to cure and prevent that awful
plague, consumption" The man list
ened intently and then he said, I'll
take ten dollars worth" Wasn't ]
glad? was helping him to bring a
Merry Christmas and 1 was helping
the pretty lady to fight consumption.
How happy was to think that Santa
Claus adopted me over in Denmark
six years ago!
