Wilson's Escape
Serious Mishap

WASHINGTON, April 22.-Presi-
dent Wilson and his youngest daugh-
ter Eleanor were being congratulated
today on a narrow escape from acct
dent while automobiling last night.
Just as the Presidents automobile
turned a corner at the Peace monu-
ment. near the capitol, street car
was brought to sudden stop within
a few inches of the presidential
motor
Passengers in the car and passers-
by, attracted by the creaking of ma
chinery and the startled cries of
those near the scene of the incident,
clustered about the Presidents ma
chine. When Wilson was recognized
the excitement of the crowd became
intense. Secret service men and
members of the motorcycle squad,
which trails the Presidents motor
car always, had great difficulty in
driving the curious back
The President was impatient him
self, and signaled those close by to
fall back This they did when they
found that neither Wilson nor his
daughter had been hurt.
The President was somewhat dis
turbed by the incident. The motor
cycle men took the name OF the mo-
torman, but the subject was dropped
today BY the White House.

LAKE HoPATCoNG. N. J., April
22.-Three men were killed and seven
injured today by terrific explosion
at the Forcite works of the Atlas
Powder Company.
The country within a radius of
fifty miles was rocked as IL by an
earthquake. Windows were shat
tered far from the isolated woods in
which the powder works. are situ-
ated Panes of glass were broken
four miles away. at the other end Of
the lake.
The summer residence of Hudson
Maxim, the foremost powder expert
in the world, is not very far from the
Atlas Company's buildings Windows
in the Maxim home were cracked and
chinaware and pictures thrown to the
floor by the force of the blast.
The injured men, some of whom are
thought to be dying, could not be re-
moved easily because of the lack OF
an ambulance. At noon they were
still in the office of the powder com
pany, attended by physicians who
raced TO the scene in automobiles inn
mediately after the explosion.
The three men who were killed had
started to work at o'clock in the
packing house, low one-story struc-
ture, one of the fifty squat buildings
that form the factory, for making the
deadly explosives.
More than a score of other men
were working in buildings some dis
tance away
At 7;40, Just as the workmen were
getting into stride for the days out
put, the explosion occurred. With
stunning detonation, tons of powder
blew up and tosssd the wreckage ef

instead of black, the smoke of the
explosion rose in volcanic splendor
above the wrecked plant. 1t grew
ing all the countryside the tragedy
that had taken place in the lonely
woods.
The havoc wrought in the other
buildings was astounding. The few
men at work were flung about, Grip
pied and manned, like corks.
The telephone connection of the Of
fee, buried under ground to guard
against just such emergencies, was
not severed. Calls for help were sent
to Morristown and Stanhope, and
physicians and nurses started in au-
tomobiles toward the scene.
The uninjured workmen, as soon as
the deadly gases had cleared away.
rushed in to save those who had not
been killed outright. They found seven
men lying unconscious in different
parts of the powder plant.
The three victims had been blown
with the wreckage of the building
hundreds of feet into the air. All that
could be found of them were grew
some remains. The torso of one of
the men was discovered caught in the
branches of a tree.
The men killed were William Mess

WASHINGTON, April 22.-Charac-

most audacious and autocratic trust
in the country" Representative Gal
lagher. of Illinois. today introduced
resolution for an exhaustive in
ouiry into the operations of the ma
tional commission. by a special COM
mittee of Congress, and would also
direct the attorney-genera to investi
gate the baseball contract system
with view to instituting prosecution
for violation of the Sherman anti
trust law
The resolution would direct the
speaker to appoint a special commit
tee of seven to investigate the oper-
alton and practise of the baseball
trust to ascertain whether unjust
determinations have been practised
in favor of or against players:
whether players are now or have
been prejudiced. coerced or restrained
from the exercise of their Just rights

combination has been affected among
baseball magnates throughout the
country as would preclude competi-
tion and operate in restraint of trade.
This is sought, the resolution sets

Mr.. Gallagher expressed a willing

PITTSBURGH, April 22.-The first
fatality attending the strikes of
school children, organized as protests
against Superintendent S. L. Heeter,
occurred this morning when a boy,
marching with a hundred or more of
his companions in Penn avenue, was

from four schools showed that scarce

PANAMA TREATIES
BIND AMERICA
Without Britain's Consent Con-
ventions Cannot Be Abro-
gated by United States.

WASHINGTON. April 22.-Senator
Chamberlains resolution for the
abrogation Of the Hay yP9uncefote
treaty, in the opinion of the state
department. officials, will be con-
fronted with the contention that
neither that treaty nor the Clayton :
Bulwer treaty can be abrogated by
the action of the United States with
out the consent of Great Britain.
These treaties the officials point
out. are in the nature of civil con-
tracts. and where one party the
United States. for instance, has ac-
auired a valuable consideration under
their terms it cannot escape the LA
bility without the full consent of the
second party. Diplomatically, and ac-
cording to the yerbiage of interna-
tional law. the status of the United
States they hold is one of national
servitude."
Legal officers of the, government
seem to be of the opinion that moth
ing can be done by the President or
Congress toward terminating the
treaties except by the consent of
Great Britain or under the terms of
arbitration.

Causes Usual Excitement

BATTLE is ON BETWEEN
CITIZENS AND TAXPAYERS
Early Vote Seems to Favor Ad-
ministration, Opponents .
Admit.

Marked by the usual number of
peculiarities, the annual battle for
control of affairs in South Orange is
on. The balloting today will determine
whether the unique municipality Is to
be governed by the Citizens party, as
it has been for the last fifteen years.
or whether the Taxpayers party is to
take up the reins.
The early vote indicated that the
administration candidates were in the
lead. This, however, was conceded by
the opposition, the leaders of which
declare 1t to be usual, and add that
their supporters will vote in the eve
ming.
There was the usual hustle and
hustle in the early morning, the lead
ers endeavoring to get out the COM

however. but few votes we're cast up

lots had been cast out of a registra-
ton of 1856. OF that number 25 were
dropped in the first district polling
place, 104 in the second, 80 in the
third and 50 in the fourth.
Union Label on Tickets.
Gustave Henckel. one of the men
