San Antonio, Texas.-At least thir-
ty-two men were killed and parts Of
their bodies strewn for blocks around
when a big passenger engine in the
Southern Pacific shops blew up here.
The engine stood In square formed
by the copper house, blacksmith shop
and round house, all of which were
wrecked. part of the locomotive
crashed into house several blocks
away and seriously hurt woman.
Twenty of the bodies have been
identified, but what is believed to be
twenty more is little more than a
tangled mass of fragments of human
flesh and bones that probably never
will be separated.
These fragments were found
jammed into crevices about the build
ing wrecked, In the street and entan-
gled In machinery of the shops.
The shops have been manned for
several weeks by strikebreakers i'm
ported when shopmen of the Harri-
man lines went out. 1t is believed
most of the killed are from the North
and East.
It Is believed the explosion was
caused by carelessness of some one of
the men killed, in allowing cold wa
ter to run into the hot boiler OF the
locomotive. The engine was No. 7Q4
and was practically new. 1t was IN
the shops for inspection. 1t was Of
the large mogul type.
Besides the thirty-two believed to
have been killed. fifty persons were
injured. These for the most part we're
in remote sections of the buildings
wrecked, for those close to the engine
or in the main parts of the building
either were killed by the blast or
crushed by falling material when the
buildings crumbled. The monetary
loss will be about 100000.
Froaks OF the terrific impact were
many, but one of the most strange Is
that the driving wheels of the engine
were not disturbed, while parts of the
huge locomotive were driven blocks.
The large wheels apparently did not
bulge.
