EXPLOSION KILLS
 MANY EMPLOYES
ACCIDENT AT STARCH FACTORY AT WAukEGAN CAUSES A MUM
 BIER OF FATALITIES.
Twenty-Seven are Injured and Some of Them Expected to Die-Prop-
 erty Loss is S1oo,0Oo.
not been se'

Waukegan, H., Nov. 25.-An ex- plosion which wrecked the dry starch house of the Corn Products companyg plant this afternoon, killed between
 three and twelve workmen, injured
 27 others, several of whom win die
 and caused about $100,000 property damage.
 Uncertainty as to the number of dead was caused by inability of fire luen to search the burning ruins be- cause of continued minor explosions Edward Conrad, deputy in the Lake county coroneT's office, was authority for the statement that twelve men al. least had been trapped in the wreck ed building.
 Charles Ebert, superintendent of the Corn Products company's Waukegon plant, said that only three men had been killed and twenty-seyen injured, by the explosion
 Only thirty men had business ii the starch house at the time of the
 explosion, said Mir. Ebert. We have 27. Of those at the hospital and three bodies or portions of bodies have been recovered. That checKs the list and think this will be found to be ab- soiutely correct"
 MT. Ebert admitted 1t was possible that additional workmen not employ ed in the starch house might have been caught in the explosion but said
 this was improbable.
 Nearly all of the woTkmen killed or injured were Polish Lithunian or Aus | trian and they were on the company's payroll by numbers and not by names. This further increased the difficulty
 met by the coroner in his efforts .o arrive at a correct death list The explosion tore the two story frame top house from the five story
 building and scattered bits of it for fifty yards in all directions. The body
 Of one man was blown across the Chi-
 cago and Northwestern railway right
 of way. onto the hillside in Oakwood cemetery
 All of the injured were coated with | starch, which had to be washed off before surgeons could treat their in | juries. Private automobiles were pressed into service to carry the in 1ured to the hospital.
 1 Bremen from North Chicago, the | National Envelop company's plant
 and the American Steel and Wire
 ompanys plant aided the Waukegan department in preventing the spread | of tlhe fire to other portions of the big
 corn products plant. Although the fire 1 appeared to be under control tonight,
 the firemen said they expected II would continue to burn tomorrow. with the possibility that new explos- ions would start it afresh

DELIRERATEs FOUR HOURS WITH ouT ARRIVING ATA VERDICT
 IN MunuER cAoE.
MANSLAUGHTER ELIMINATED
Judge Instructs Jury Their Verdict Must Be Either First or Second Degree Murder or an Acqu(t3
 tai Of the Defendant.

Goshen, N. Y. Nov. 25.--The jury trying Burton W. Gibson on the charge of murdering his client. Mrs. Rosa Menschiclx Szabo, on Greenwood lake. last July, deliberated till mid- that hour they were still out and had been for more than four hours.
 While Gibson sat in his. cell await ing word from the jury room, his wife, worn by her long vigil. was rest ing within call, at a nearby cottage, after having paced up and down i'll front of the court house for some time n the rain.
 in the court room at the time sat detective armed with a warrant on which Gibson will be re-arre5ted iii case he is acquitted This warrent charged Gibson with the larceny Ia 1910 of s17,000 from Hugh TTainos an aged awning maker and a former client of the prisoner.
 This warrent was based on an in :. dictment found by the grand jury n New York county recently.
 Indications were at midnight the jury would shortly be locked up for tre night
 The fate of Burton W. Gibson, was delivered into the jury's hands at I:3S o'clock tonight by Supreme Court Justice Tompkins.
 The court eliminated mansIaughte 7 from it's charge and directed that ors of three verdicts be returned, murder in the first degree, second degree, O. acluittal.
 Iii summing up for the state, IsadU:' Wasser Vogel told the jury that there were mo two ways of looking at the evidence"
 We see him grasp her around the neck and thrust his hand to her throat" he declared. We see them fall into the water. We see the man alone emerge. Next we see this man hurrying home. Two days later we see him lay the woman in a nameless grace, with lsith and kin fa- away. We pext see him in court asking for her money. That IS our case sketched on the witness stand. Where does It fail?"
 Jrdge Tompkins fin charging the jury referred at some length to con t~adictory explanations given by Gib- son of Mrs. Szabos whereabouts af- ter she had met her death and told them to consider what these state- ments indicated as to the guilt or in- nocence of the defendant Tn connec- ton with the death of Rosa Szabo.'
 Gibson listened to the prosecutor address, and the court charge with downcast eyes. His wife, pallid and haggaTd, showed plainly :he effects upon her of the lawyers unfriendly words. Once she seemed about 10 faint when Mir. Wasser Vogel called attention to the signature of the Do gus Mrs. Menschik attached to the dead woman's will It was spellei "Manschik."
