TWO HUNDRED Die
IN WRECKED PLANT
BUILDINGS BLOWN TO ATOMS,
TRAPPED WORkMEN MEETING
HORRIBLE DEATH.
Rush Made for Safety When Warning
is Given, But Many Are Caught
by Deadly Gas and Flames or
Meet End In Flaming Debris.

Pittsburg.-At least 200 men We're
killed May 1S, when an explosion OF
I. n. Il. demolished the plant Of the
Aetna Chemical company ut Oakdale,
on the Panhandle division of the Penn
sylvania railroad, sixteen miles from
here.
Five hundred workmen were startled
at noon by II report, not much louder
than the crack of pistol. 1t came
from the soda house, but they knew it's
deadly import, and, as one man they
rushed for the nearest exit. Before
they could gain the open the very air
seemed to burst into flame, the earth
heaved and rocked and, with O roar
that was heard for miles, the long fac
tory buildings were hurled high into
the air, carrying with them ponderous
equipment and scores of men. A great
cloud of dust and smoke settled over
the scene, and through its deadly
fumes torn and mangled forms dropped
to earth, many dead but others to meet
their end in the flaming debris.
The number of dead has not been
determined, and it is possible that 1T
may not be known for days, if, in
deed, it ever will be known. State
and county authorities agreed that 1t
would reach 200.
Many of the injured some of whom
were found half mile from the rem
nants of the factory, We're brought tl
Pittsburg hospitals by special trains
and in ambulances, all Of them sc
badly hurt that in only comparative
ly few instances were physicians nbl'
to hold out any hope for their re
covery. The property loss was est
4 mated at 81 SOC, 900.

KING THANKS RED CROSS.
British Ruler Appreciates Assistance
Offered Sick and Wounded.

London.-The following letter from
King George to President Wilson was
made public May 10:
ITO the President of the United
States of America
ION the eve of the second appeal
which the American Red Cross is about
to make for funds with which to carry
ON its work of mercy, l thank you in
lAe name of my people for the assist
snce already offered the sick and
wounded of the allied countries.
MY heartfelt wish is that the re-
suits of this new appeal may enable
the Red Cross of America, side by side
with our own organization and those
OF the allied countries, successfully to
carry out the great humane mission
kaposed upon us by the gigantic war
sSch as the world has never known.
THE unexampled munificence Of
Americas first response provided d
noble record in charity effort and
feel sure her generous hearted people
will again respond to the extent that
the resources of your great country
alone can command.
(Signed) GEORGE"
