TWO HURT IN A TUNNEL
Dozen Others Are Slightly Injured at Distance Of Three Miles Under
 Water at Chicago.

Chicago, Jan. 1.-Two men were fatally injured and dozen others slightly hurt in a dynamite explosion in the tunnel three miles under Lake Michigan, being built to supply water for suburban cities.
 The fatally injured; James Chasel- ski, 30; Victor Jubkowski, 32.
 The workmen, 2S in number, had just gone to work, firing the tunnel, when Chaselski swung his pick, a terrific explosion resulting.
 It is thought the dynamite was carelessly left in a crevice a year ago when the work of digging the under. ground passageway was going on.
 Two years ago, shortly after the tunnel work started a fire in the crib on Lake Michigan cost the lives of 63 workmen. The late accident was near the scene of this disaster.

COLD STORAGE MEN WHO MA. NlPULATED CORNER ARE IGOR
 INBRED" THEMSELVES.
TRUST PUP AGAINST IT"
Coolers Are to Be Opened and Mar. ket Flooded With Cheap Elm bslmed Provisions-Easier
 for the Poor Man.

St. Louis, Jan. 17.-The frenzied efforts of the cold storage men to cor ner the worlds food supply and force the cost of living to war time prices has brought disaster if not destruc. ton upon them, according to local dealers.
 Between now and May 1 millions of pounds of eggs, butter, cheese, dressed poultry and other foods will be taken from the cold storage rooms and thrown on the market to be sold for whatever it will bring. Some of the food to be unloaded on the public has been in the coolers since the cold storage men got together five years ago and agreed informally to make the prices whatever they pleased from that time on.
 They accomplished this by snapping up all supplies of fresh food and put. ting them in storage. The public, thus deprived of @ large per cent of the current fresh food supply, was compelled to pay exorbitant prices. Gradually however, the people found makeshitts. Those who were not overly prosperous stopped buying eggs at such outlandish prices and began to use oleOmargarine instead of butter which has been in the na. ture of a luxury for several years.
 Acts as Boomerang.
 As the manufacture of oleomarga- rine increased and the habit of living on cheaper foods became more gen. eral the storage men found them. selves confronted by a serious situa, tion. The storage rooms were filled with foods for which comparatively high pri had been paid, and not only Wele further manipulations i'm. possible tvt the money paid for the food on hand was tied up until the Supply could be sold,
 One Chicago firm alone admits it has in storage 44,000,000 pounds of butter which will be a total loss if not sold by May l, and three other firms have failed in the last week be- cause they had bought great quanti- ties of butter at prices running gen. erally more than 30 cents a pound and were unable to sell their holdings for more than 27 or 2S cents pound
 The unloading of all these supplies so suddenly has brought the storage men and commission men face to face with a crisis. The wholesalers already have recognized the writing on the wall and are cutting prices on many staple lines of foods. The commis. sion men, however, are pretending to ignore the situation and are trying to save themselves by maintaining an artificial scale of prices much higher than is warranted by the wholesalers reductions.
 No marked reduction in retail prices have been announced, and the commission men and shopkeepers grayely assert their ignorance of the crisis impending.
 The slump will affect all the big cities of the north, south, middle west and east simultaneously. St. Louis. Kansas City, Omaha, Chicago, Min. neapolis, Philadelphia and New York are named as the places where the heaviest supplies of embalmed and frozen foods will be thrust upon the market, but the effect will be felt generally.
 The slump in food prices is expect ed to begin within a week.
