WASHINGTON, Sept 1S.-General
Villa sent a message to President
Wilson today denying that there was
any friction between him and other
Constitutionallst leaders. From

Victims of Wright Chemical
Works Accident, at Union,
Not Identified.
Special to the Evening star.

Gptchi 10 ine Evening star.
ELIZABETH, Sept. 1S.-Three men
were killed this afternoon in an ex-
plosion in the Wright Chemical
Works, in Union, between here and
Irvington.
The dead men have not been iden-
titled. They were employed in the
guneotton department, in which the
explosion occurred.
The explosion took place about f:45
O'Clock. The men had been working
only a short time after lunch when
the whole plant was shaken by a
terrific explosion. The building sway
ed and flames broke out from the
guncotton department. Employees in
the other parts of the plant rushed
to the aid of their fellow workers but
were driven back by the flames.
Irvington, Springfield and other
towns within radius of several miles
were shaken, and much excitement
prevailed. Buildings at Irvington
rocked on their foundation, some per-
sons said.
Immediately after the explosion a
hurry call was sent out for physicians
DR.. Henry B. Dengler, of Springfield,
and DR.. j. H. Irwin, OF Crawford, re-
sponded. They We're kept busy at
tending TO several employees who were
cut by flying glass.
Four Dead.
One report had 1t that five men were
killed This could not be substanti-
ated.
Several of the workmen forced their
way into the blazing department, but
could find little trace of the three
missing comrades. Here and there
tney found pieces of flesh and parts
of clothing. The victims had been
blown to bits, IL was said.
About twenty men were at work at
the time of the accident. There was
so much excitement afterward that
no one could tell how many had es-
capped, nor could any one recall tho
names of the dead, One of them was
the foreman. and one of the work
men thought his name was Riley. The
other wnrlSmon were mostly Poles-and
Hungarlans, and few of them could
speak English.
Later It was said that. besides
Riley, a man named Palmer was
killed. The other dead victim was
thought to be a Polish laborer.
Seven Buildings in Plant.
Seven small buildings composed the
Wright plant. All were wrecked. Fire
devastated the debris after the ex-
plosion.
When the plant is in full operation
a force of about flfty-six is used.
Work has been slack lately and not
moro than twenty have been en-
ployed.
The main gun cotton building,
which was of terra Gotta construction,
was one story in height and was situ-
ated along the Railway Valley rail-
road, not far from Chestnut street.
The fire was practically beyond con-
troll when the Union fire department
arrived
The feet of one man and part of
another mans head were all that was
found of the victims. 1t was reported
that the manager of the plant was
slightly injured.
Gun cotton, which is said to be used
in the manufacture of artificial
leather, was the product of the
Wright Company. Most of it was
shipped to manufacturers in Newark.
1t was later esta blished that the
dead foreman was John Riley.

NEW YORK, Sept. 18.-Count Won
Bernstorff, the German ambassador
to the United States, discussed today
the prospect of peace in Europe and
the efforts of President Wilson to
bring 1t about.
Talk of peace was started by the
people of the United States said the
ambassador. Its continuance after
the answer sent by the German gov
ernment, through Ambassador &C.
rard. depends upon the attitude of
the allies.
"As long as they talk of crushing
and dismembering Germany there is
absolutely no possibility of peace l
am quoting Premier Asquith and
other Englishmen. l have no idea
that Germany could be crushed or
dismembered.
mo lasting peace would be pos
sible If a square inch of German ter
ritory was given up. That applies
to the colonies of Germany as well as
the German Empire itself. 1t is per-
fectIy clear that If any territory was
taken Germany would again arm TO
the teeth. "a
Count Won Bernstorff was asked il
If was possible that peace in Europe
might lead to general disarmament.
.'That," he replied, would depend
unon the sentiment with which peace
was entered into by the allies"
Count Won Bernstorff said that un-
doubtedly the German Emperor had
been informed of the talk between
Ambassador Gerard and the imperial
German chancellor and that the an
swer given had been first submitted
to the Emperor. He added that it
should be emphatically understood
that. from a military viewpoint, Ger
many was not seeking peace at this
time any more than before.
