WATERBURY HOUSE IS
 SHATTERED BY BLAST
'"Gas," Says Owner, But Others Sus- pect Presence of Explosive
 in Building.

Waterbury, Feb. 19-An explosion that up to late hour has not been explained satisfactorily occurred yesterday afternoon in a single-story comment and felt-roofted shack on North Main street, occupied by AL tidio Treticione and his wife and three young children. The shack was blown to pieces, fragments flying across the street. Six windows in the Turn Verein Vorwaerts gymnasium, first house north, were broken, and one in a dwelling to the south.
 Treticone and his family were buried in debris and it took half an hour to extricate them. His youngest son Joseph, aged seven, was killed Treticone and his wife and the other two children, Angeline, three, and Marchata, two years, were rushed to St. Mary's hospital. The baby escaped almost uninjured, but Treticone and his wife and the other girl are seri- ously injured. They will recover.
 The man had told a brother-in- flaw that he smelled gas coming from the cellar, a three-foot excavation, and crawled down to see if he could find it with match. and then the explo- sion followed. Gas had not been used by the family, and inspectors of the Waterbury Gas Light company say the gas had been shut off from the main and that there was no leak. No fire followed the explosion.
 Edward de Bisschop, foreman of distribution of the gas company, says that the nature of the wreck indicated the work of a powerful explosive.

ECUADOR FAVORS
 AMERICAN LEAGUE
South American Government Proposes Continental Expression of Views
 on European War.

Washington, Feb. 19.-Some inter- est was manifested here today in Ec- uador's proposal for a congress of American nations to meet immed- lately and take "the necessary meas ures for securing a continental ex- pression principally for the guarantee of the rights of neutrality. and if it is possible for the alleviation of the rigors of war;
 Tobar Borgona, Ecuadorean min ister of foreign relations, made the suggestion in note to the Mexican minister of foreign relations respond ing to General Carranza's note to the United States and all neutral nations, suggesting an embargo on foodstuffs and munitions exports as a means of bringing the war to an end.
 Borgona's communication dated at Quito Feb. IT, says joint action of all American nations is needed to produce results, as 'the labor of one, separate group, it is demon strated, is unfruitful."
 Ecuador therefore, 'believes it es- sential that there should be an inn mediate session of an American con- gress, which could meet, for example, in Uruguay"

OUR SPLENDID VINOL
Quickly Stopped MT. Clark's Hang-on
 Cough.


 We have seen right here in New Britain such wonderful results from the use of Vinol in such cases, that we agree to return the money to anyone who tries it and does not get the same result MT. Clark did. He says:-
 'I used Vinol for a chronic cough and hard cold which it seemed inn possible to get rid of. At nights I would cough violently I couldn' t sleep. I learned about Vinol through a friend who had used it at the house where I am living, and the result of its use in my case was that the hard cold was soon we'll and the chronic cough disappeared in very short order" E. J. Clark, g Pearl St., Am sterdam, N. Y.
 It's the beef and cod liver pep tones, iron and manganese peptonates and glycerophosphates contained in Vinol that makes it such successful remedy for chronic coughs, colds and bronchitis. Try it on our guarantee.
