Western Newspaper Onion News Service.
Chester, Pa, April 1.-Two sus-
poets were arrested late last night in
connection with the explosions in the
shrapnel building of the Eddystone
Ammunition Corporation, one mile
from here. which caused the death of
112 persons and the injury to 12l
others.
The prisoners are Samuel Cohen, 25
years old, who gave an address in
Philadelphia, and his father, who is
described as being between SO and So
years old. 1t is said the older man
was well supplied with money and
that neither is an American citizen.
OFFICIALS asserted that papers found
on one of the men were discriminating
and very important Many of the in
jured were mortally hurt, and it is
feared the final death list will reach
$50, while others probably will be
MANNED for life.
How any of the 300 or more en-
ployes in the building, in which were
stored approximately 10000 shells, es-
capped, is almost beyond conception, as
there was scarcely a fragment of the
structure left intact
Fire added to the horror, and most
of the bodies were so badly charred
that Identification was impossible. In
the absence of any official statement
many theories as to the cause of the
disaster were advanced.
Several bodies were fished out of
the marshes 200 yards from the build
ing and it is feared that others may
have been blown into the river still
farther away. All were mutilated.
The explosion, which was felt in
Philadelphia, distance of Is miles,
occurred about 10 o'clock in what is
known as the "10-F" building, two
story structure 75x300 feet.

NJ. Ammons, chairman of the livestock

the discussion had shown clearly that
