Como News

Our community is saddened by
tn e death of Mrs. Kate Simmons
which occurred at the family res
idence on Tuesday April 27 after
an illness of pneumonia. She
was about SO years of age, a
member of the Baptist Church
at Thompson's Creek, to which
she was devoted, and also was
charter member of the Wcm-
ans Christian Temperance Union

loyal support. She was true to
the Masters teaching, as she
went about doing good, in minis
tering to the sick and distressed
and gave freely to all who were
in need. She was a blessing in
her helpful deeds and we shall
miss her greatly. She leaves a
husband, two brothers and four
sisters to mourn her loss. She
hath entered into rest and one
day we will greet in the Celestial
City.

fire by a spark from a locomotive.
 The heat has been intense for four days and everything is dry as finder and easily inflammable. In firemen against the serious dangers from this source. On the other hand explosive experts think that the heat disintegrated the nitroglycerin in the dynamite, and that slight jar sent the matter exploding. There is no reason to believe, as at first universally reported by mere conjecture, that this was an in- cendiary act. The authorities gen erally agree that it was accidental.
 President Edmund M'Kenzie of the National Storage Go. when seen today at his Plainfield home de- clares that the explosion unques- tionably occurred on the powder train, possibly following a hot box fire or some equally trifling cause. He emphasized the fact that in all his thirty island warehouses he has stored no explosives, and is at a loss to understand why the fire re- ceived such an ungovernable start from the firemen.
 The disaster is mainly due to the minor explosions of the munitions following the dynamite explosion, and this accounts for the wide area of casualties which is now being reported by the police and the hos pitals.
 Last reports show that the fires are being controlled in Jersey city and in Manhattan and Brooklyn proper precautions resulted in little damage from fire.
 The metropolis this evening is suffering from bad case of nerves and it is felt that worse is going to happen. The situation is descr.be1 as still very serious. No official re turns os deaths have been as yet handed in.
 NEW YORK, July 30.-The fire situation is now under control. The deaths will not exceed four hund- red and fifty although the injured run into the thousands. So far no attempt is made to estimate the loss of property which is gigantic.
The daily Nome industrial worker., 1916-07-31

NEW YORK, July 30.-Abo1t two o'clock this Sunday morning six cars of dynamite on the Lehigh Valley road, Black Tom Island, ex- ploded near Communipaw, N. J., wrecking the National Storage Co.'S plant completely while the buildings and wrecked debris almost at once broke into a fierce blaze.
 This original explosion was the fore-runner of several minor explo- sions travelling along a detonating area of great distance and explod- ing sixty-nine cars of munitions for the Allies. Car after car went off as they stood on the tracks leading directly to the intuition pier where twelve lighters moored to the docks became ignited. These also exploded two breaking away blazing from the moorings, and drifting down to Fills Island, exploded in the surf, de- stroying the main building of the Immigration Receiving station and necessitating the removal of seven hundred detained immigrants to the Battery barge office.
 The explosions sent flaming debris all over the surf and set fire to two oil tankers anchored near Bedloe Island.
 The explosions shook Manhattan, Brooklyn and New Jersey cities, shattering plate glass windows in the stores and offices, tons of glass are strewn on the streets, while po- lice and soldiers guard the window less stores from looters.
 Many buildings have been dam- aged and many fires have broken out at a variety of places which ragged uncontrolled for some time before the full resources of the me- tropolitan fire fighting system were available. The explosion ditched cars in the streets, knocked pedes- trians down and has interrupted all telephone communication.
 Dawn broke upon a panic stricken city with the hotels and hospitals crowded with panic stricken guests A black pail of smoke contributed an artificial gloom to the city, white fires occasionally illuminated far distant sections.

 Deadly Heat Wave

CHICAGO, July 30.-Scorching heat is responsible for the death of one hundred and twenty seven persons in this city during the past twenty-four hours. They were how ever mostly babies under one year old, and the mortality almost all confined to the poorer sections of the city. As a result of the heat wave scores of insanity cases are reported, cases of violent assaults and accidents have also increased one hundred per cent. The lowest temperature recorded in three days of blistering heat Is ninety six in the shade, with no diminution re-

Metropolis in Panic
 Explosion and Fires

The fires raging intensified the excitement which prevented work men, firemen and police checking them earlier. The Central Railroad of New Jersey connected Black Tom Island with the main land. The coast guard cutters are warning boats away from the danger zone and the work of combating the threatening situation as the day grows is becoming more system atic.
 The loss of life is set as high as seven hundred but this is merely a guess. It is impossible to tell who have been killed and the hospitals in the rush of work have hardly been able to compute the injured
 Over three hundred men employed nights as the powedr pier are miss ing or not reported; thirty three firemen combating the fire at the National Storage Co.'S warehouses are reported killed. They belonged to the Jersey city staff; Jersey City general hospital reports handling one hundred and twenty-five cases of seriously injured with constan. arrivals increasing this number every minute.
 A family on board one barge is known to have perished, fifty men ara said to have escaped from the scows and a like number missing are supposed to be dead.
 The National Storage Co.'S pro- perty consisted of twenty-eighr warehouses of four covered piers in cluding one ammunition pier. They were valued at seven million dollars as far as their contents alone is concerned, and all were filled with furniture, clothing etc. which will be total loss.
 It seems impos ible to prevent the fires burning out completely in this section although fire tugs and steamers notwithstanding the dang CT are standing by valiantly to con trol the conf1agration which if it gain any further headway will have disastrous results.
 The cause of the explosion is more or less a mystery. The favorite theory is that the cars were set on

BERLIN. July 30.-The first reai defeat that the German forces en- gagged with the Russians suffered since the war began Is admitted at Pristine on the east of the Stockhod river where General Brussiloff's northern wing out-fought the forces under the German generals. Rail- road troubles bringing up ammuni- tion is explained as one of the causes which contributed to the blow.
 It is ascertained however that the slaughter of von Linsingen's lines will be compensated by the Russian repulse at Huleyiche.

LONDON, July 30.-In response to the British request for informa- tion of the trial of Captain Ryatt, Ambassador Gerard reports that he had officially asked for postpone ment of the trial in Berlin, Thurs day, and had apparently secured it when the Ruler declared that it was impossible to have the subma- rine witnesses at the trial which thereupon was ordered to proceed.

 No casualties are being published as to the eastern or western fight ing and none will be.
