THIRTEEN MEN LOSE LIVES
IN DETROIT FACTORY BLAST
Only Few of Workmen Employed In
Rubber Works Escape Death
or Injury.

Detroit, May 16.-Thirteen men
were killed, another man is dying and
three more were thought to be fatally
injured as the result Of the terrific ex-
plosion which wrecked the plant of the
Mexican Crude Rubber company in the
west part of the city The direct
cause of the explosion may never be
known
At first it was reported gasoline was
responsible for the accident Later it
was said that suiphuric acid was prob
ably the cause The coroner shared
the latter opinion and said he based
his belief on the statements of others
who were acquainted with the pro-
cesses of rubber manufacturing used
in the plant.
1t was believed the explosion oc-
Cured in a department where the
molten rubber was being prepared.
There were several workmen in this
department but as far as could be
