TEN KILLED BY
ACID EXPLOSION
Four Others Taken From Debris
May Die.
BUILDING 0BLITERATE D
Most OF Victims Were Chemists
At Mexican Crude Rubber
company's Plant, In
Detroit.

Detrolt.-Ten men, most Of them
chemists, were killed by the explosion
of acid and chemicals in the mixing
room of the Mexican Crude Rubber
Company, on the West Side here. -Four
other employees, removed from the
steaming debris, were taken to hos
pital and all may die. Two men were
less seriously hurt The building, a
one-story structure Of solid concrete
and cement, was almost obliterated.
Other buildings within radius of a
mile were more or less damaged. The
loss was estimated at $4,000.
Among those who escaped were John
II. Evans, superintendent. and John c.
Treadwell, manager Of the plant.
Just what caused the explosion prob
ably will never be known. In the
mixing room was large vat Of molten
rubber being prepared by secret pro-
cess. Without moments warning
the building was torn to pieces. Every
man who was in the mixing room at
that moment was killed.
Masses OF cement and concrete were
found several blocks from the scene of
the explosion. Nearby buildings were
battered by the hail Of flying stone and
hundreds OF windows broken. Several
pedestrians had narrow escapes. A
short distance from the rubber factory
was the plant of the Commerce Motor
Car Company, which was badly dam
aged
The company manufactured imita'
ton leather and 1t is understood that
ether and other explosives were used
in large quantities. Because of the
secret process of preparing the crude
rubber, employees were not allowed to
leave their department to enter other
parts of the plant. Few of the EN-.
ployes knew each other and 1t was
some time before the victims were
identified.

A HOSTILE ACT
United States Sends Sharp Note

Dlctator's Delegates De.
lay Mediation.

Washington, ID. C.-The United
States has demanded of the Huerti
Government news Of the fate of Privat,
Parks, the American infantryman who
strayed into Mexico lines near Vera
Cruz, declaring that unless information
about him was given Immediately the
American Government would consider
that IAN unfriendly and hostile act
had been committed in violation of the
understanding for a cessation OF war
like moves pending mediation.
President Wilson and Secretary
Bryan, drafted q strong communities
ton after receiving word from the
Brazilian Minister in Mexico City that
Parks had been executed"
No mention was made in the Minis
ter's report OF whether he was shot as
a spy after court-martial or whether
his body was burned, as has been per-
sistently reported to General Funston.
The American Government cabled the
Brazilian Minister to inform the
Huerta Government OF the strong feel
ing OF the United States in the mat
ter, directing him to make vigorous
representations concerning the Incl
dent.
The note asked the Minister to pro-
test TO the Huerta Government that II
Parks were alive the failure to explain
his whereabouts was in itself an un-
friendly attitude, and that II the sol
der has been executed, as has been
reported, such execution OF man who
came into the Mexican lines in full
uniform was contrary to military pro-
cedure of civilized nations and an act
OF hostility.
No mention was made In the Amerl-
can note of the course the United
States intends to pursue in the mat
ter, but an official close to the Presi-
dent said It was one OF the things
which would be held up against the
Huerta government when the final
reckoning came over the offenses COM
mitted against the United States.
The three South American mediators
had received no communication from
the United States about the Parks
incident and persons in the confidence
OF the President said the affair prob
ably would not interfere with the be-
ginning of the mediation proceedings,
though It was recalled in many quar-
ters that the United States accepted
the tender of good Offices with the
reservation that no hostile acts toward
Americans should occur while the
negotiations were In progress.

FREIGHT GOING

ALLOWS TIME FOR SLIDE
Measure Adopted To Relieve conu-
tlon Due To Suspension OF Rail
road Service Brought Abou,
BY Revolution In Mexico.

Washington, ID. C.-For the 6v
time in the world history waterbor,|
traffic is now passing through the PA
anna Canal.
AS a matter Of fact, according to a.
Panama Railroad reports, the servIs
actually began May IL, and a steah
stream of barges is now passhl
through the canal.
The tremendous congestion in nts
oceanic commerce caused by susDe,
sion of service on the TehuanteDa
railroad in Southern Mexico as an I'M.
dent to the rebellion brought abovt
this rather premature opening of d,
canal to trade. Several of the grer
freight liners, which In conjunctIu
with the similar service on the Paclt,
maintained trade lines between Euos
and the Far East via Tehuantepe
have recently appeared at Colon sM
Panama offering cargoes for trans
shipment overland far beyond th
capacity OF the Panama RAILROAD
Finding that Col. Goethals was wlllt,
TO assist them by clearing an adeQuat
channel for barges, at least throuh
the Cucharacha slide, the company
secured a lot of the barges that hsu
been used for harbor purposes sl
Colon and Panama and established this
service as an overflow to assist Tho
railroad in meeting the trade demand
Col. Goethals has not yet reported
to Washington just when the CaM
will be opened to merchant shipping
but the understanding here is that b.
waterway Is practically finished and
that even now there is a sufficient
channel through the Culebra cut ior
almost any warship or liner, and ths.
It Is only from a desire to avoid a pOl
sible serious accident through an ur
expected renewal OF the earth move
ments in the cut that Col. Goetheb
has determined to allow a period 70;
observation before actually Opening
the canal
1t is understood that this barge seH
ice Is to be operated on about II houB
schedule from the Atlantic to Tho
Pacific, which allows about an hours
delay In each of the locks.

FOREIGNERS PRESS
FOR COMPENSATION
ConstitutionaIists Flooded With
Claims For Indemnity.
FORCED LOANS MUST BE PAID
Tho Spanish Ambassador Asks Bryan
What Can Be Done For 800 Span
lards Elected From Torreon
BY Rebels.

Washington, d. CA phase OF the
complicated Mexican situation that at
tracts much attention in official circles
here was the embarrassment which
success brings to the Constitutionalists
In the form of demands for compensa-
tion for losses to foreigners within
their sphere Of influence, which foreign
governments are pressing with increas-
ing force the further the Constitu-
tionalists establish themselves as re-
sponsible masters Of Northern Mexico.
Spain takes particular interest in
this question of compensation, many
Spanish subjects having submitted
complaints against Carranza and his
subordinates for confiscation or de-
struction Of their property, forced
loans, Imprisonment or election from
the country.
The Spanish Ambassador called at
the State Department to see what
could be done for 800 Spaniards elected
| by the Constitutionalists from Tor
reon. He also has bill to present for
$20,000000 worth of Spanish-owned
cotton, alleged to have been confiscated
by the. Constitutionalists at Torreon.
Diplomatic and legal measures to
prevent the export and sale of the
confiscated cotton are preparatory to
steps to secure either the return of
the cotton to the original owners or
payment for it. 1t was declared in
diplomatic quarters that no market for
this cotton could be found in Europe
even should the Constitutionalists at
tempt to export 1t from Tampico.
"Forced Loans"
Forced ioans," levied upon foreign
ers in Mexico, furnish further occa.
sion for strong diplomatic representa-
tions the nearer General Carranza
comes to establishing a government to
which such representations can be ad.
dressed with prospects of success.
The case of William s. Benton, the
British subject killed at Juarez, also
looms threateningly on the Constitu-
tionalist horizon.
Though much interested here in the
sudden displacement of General Mas
in command of the Federal forces out
side of Vera Cruz the War Depart
ment has been unable to procure any
adequate explanation, and General
Funston reported that even at Vera
Cruz the reason for this change is un.
known.
