linger of any wrongdoing, another

cabinet and the third severely arraign
ing his administration Of the interior
department, thus go back to the house
and take their place on the calendar

placed in a position to air the case in
the house.
1t is the purpose of Representative

the Democratic members of the com
mittee to insist that action shall be
taken on the case by the house

Property Loss $1,000, 900.

The property loss, according to yari-
Gus official estimates. will be between
o750,O0O and s1,000,000. The heaviest
sufferer In this respect is the Central
Railroad Of New Jersey, at whose
docks the disaster occurred. Vice
President Besler sets the railroad S
lpss at about 100000.
The United States government is
also a heavy loser, with $4,000 dam,
age at Ellis island and an additional
$4,000 or $4,000 at the army head
quarters on Governors island, and at
Bsdloe's island, where the Statue of
Liberty was shaken bare of many win
dows and big electric lights
The blast was probably the largest
explosion of dynamite that has ever
occurred anywhere, Intentionally or
by accident. Fifty thousand pounds
went up In the single detonation.
There was marvellous escape, how
ever, from a much bigger disaster, for
there was another $4,000 pounds stand
ing on sidetrack within 100 feet OF
the pier end, which stood unexploded
through all the tunult. The cars
which contained it were twisted and
torn and the boxes were strewn on
every side, but the dynamite, thick
with the dust and debris of the ex.
plosion, was unharmed and intact in
its paper coverings.
The exact cause Of the blast has
NOT hnnr dof7uito1v aSta h1ighad and
may never be explained to the salts
faction of the experts.
Criminal prosecution as well as
civic actions for damages are to be
begun against the powder trust Off
cials responsible for the presence or
the Jersey City pier of the dynamite
that caused the disaster

Casualties as Result of Jer=

Damage to Property in the Vicinity
Estimated at as High as $1,000, 900,
the Heaviest Loser Being the Central
Railroad of New Jersey-Three
Separate Official Investigations OF
Affair Started

Affair Started.
New York, Feb. 3.-Three separate
Investigations were started to- fix the
responsibility for the dynamite explo.
sion in New York harbor. One will be
conducted by a cororer's jury under
Coroner James NJ. Houghton of Jersey
City; another by Inspector of Com.
bustibles James M. Connolly of Jer,
sey City, and third by Public Prose
cutor Pierre P. Garven of Hudson
county, N. j.
The Jersey City police and the fed
eral authorities will assist in all three
Investigations. The federal authori
ties, however, have put the case
squarely up to New Jersey, although
the transportation of explosives about
the harbor is under the jurisdiction OF
the treasury department and under the
direct supervision of the supervisor
OF anchorages, an officer of the reve
nue. cutter service.
His investigation shows that when
the explosion occurred the boats re
csiving the dynamite were tied to g
pier located under the jurisdiction ol
New Jersey authorities. The state OF
New York will have no hand in the
investigation. 1t has jurisdiction over
all crimes committed in the Hudson
river, except when they occur on boats
tied up on the Jersey side.
Definite estimates of the number o.
dead are still impossible. The total o.
dead and missing is thirty. The list o.
dead In the hands of the coroner il
seven and it is that officials beliet
that most of the twentythree mer
whom he classes as missing" were
blown to atoms.
