circumstances surrounding the ter

munition plant at Splitrock, some few
miles west of here. when at least
sixty-five were killed and more than
fifty injured. has led District Attorney
John Walrath to announce that ar
Investigation will he started imme-
d4ately, despite the wishes Of the
company.
1t was learned that shortly after
the fire started in the r n. r plant
an automobile carrying several men
and travelling under Tennessee

trance OF the powder plant. where I.
had been standing.
Coupled with this circumstance.
which the district attorneys office
thinks worth while investigating, Ia
the fact that shortly after the fire
started in the plant, about o'clock In
the evening. the water supply sud
denly failed. due to a complete break
down in the power house. RI this had
not happened the explosion, which
was the worst disaster in the history
of Syracuse. would not have taken

had the flames under control up TO

the total will go above n hundred
