voted to averting a worse disas-
ter. Thousands of people had
hurried away from Morgan and
surrounding towns during the
night leaving many communities
to-day virtually without resident
populations and it was consid-
cred probable that with these
went many of the Gillespie en-
ployes as yet unaccounted for.
Another terrific explosion OF
a T. N. T. magazine occurred at
1000 a. m. Buildings rocked in
Perth Amboy. Military guards
were thrown around the plant.
South Amboy, five miles away. felt
the greatest force of the explosion.
The residents, most of whom had
been in terror throughout the night,
did not need formal urging. and the
roads to Perth Amboy and other
towns were packed with people. all
hurrying to escape the danger zone.
Various units of the New Jersey
state guard were called upon to pro-
tect the homes of people who had
fled.
Until dawn to-day, firemen, guards
men and rescue parties were unable
to approach the ruins OF the plant
and search for bodies of the victims.

OF exploding shells and ammunition.
1t was said that more than 1000
men composed the night shift. Esti-
mates of the loss of life ranged from
twenty-five to one hundred and up
wards. Nine bodies were recovered
and sent to the morgue at South
Amboy. Officials declared 1t might
be several days before the death
toll would be known definitedly.
The cause Of the disaster Is not
known. Rumors were circulated that
spies or alien enemies were respon-
sible. but these were promptly dis
counted by officials
The extent of the property loss has
not yet been estimated by the COM
pany officers. The plant is said to
have been valued at s1s.O0O.000.
