them to cook more thoroughly and

The griddle should be hot enough to

S0LVAY PLANT DEATH
 LIST REDUCED TO 62
Eighty Others Injured, Many Fatally, by Explosion of
 Munitions.

Syracuse, July 3.-Forty-seven men were killed in the explosion of the plant of the Semett- -Solvay Co. at Split Rock, just west of this city last night. FOrty-seven bodies had been recovered at 8 o'clock this morning and there arc more in the ruins.
 The injured number at least S0. Most of them are in local hospitals, but many of them were removed to their homes in the rush to remove them quickly from the scene of the disaster. Many of the injured are eX- pected to die.
 About half of the great munitions plant was wiped out by the fire and series of explosions which followed. At least ten buildings were destroyed and the property damage will exceed $1,O00,000.
 The explosion, which occurred at 9:30 o'clock, shook the entire city. It sent hundreds into a panic. Within a mile or more of Split Rock scores rushed from their homes to get out of the danger zone. At least Is buildings of the great establishment were wiped out. A fire preceded the explosion by 45 minutes or more
 Many of those killed or injured suffered while fighting the fire. Sol vav guards, state troopers and others formed cordon about the property.
 A general exodus followed the blaze. Besides the fleeing workmen many families moved away from the scene. Daylight brought realization of the full horror of the disaster. In the blackened ruins were counted scores of bodies. Of the bodies in the ruins six were those of patrolmen.
 Besides the buildings of the plant, the small homes of workmen about the hillside and in the valley were wrecked.

WATER DEVELOPMENT
 IS STILL IN DOUBT
Manufacturers Do Not Attend Special Meeting Of Committee-Have
 No Delegates.

Henry c. M. Thomson, president of the American Hardware corporation, stated this morning that he has not at any time been delegated a, repre- sentative of the manufacturing in terests to represent the Citys indus tries at any meeting of the council committee on the Burlington water supply He also states that he is not a member of any such committee, and furthermore he has never been in Vited to appear before the council committee to express any views on the development of the Burlington watershed. President Thomson says he is at a loss to know how the inn pression came about that the manu- lecturers had organized an investi- gation committee of their own, and added that so far as he knows no such committee of manufacturers has been named.
 Members of the special council con- mittee met last night In city hall at the call of Chairman o. F. Curtis and for some reason they expected the manu- facturing interests to be represented and voice some opinions on the pro- posed building of a tunnel in Bur lington. When no one appeared the meeting continued and, it is pre- sumed, a report was prepared which will be presented to the common council at it's adjourned meeting on Friday night.

NEWSBOYS NOW Wlf4y
 RECOGNIZED UNI()l
Petition Mayor to Have Ordinance Passed Providing That All Newsfes Must Be Licensed.

New Britain's newsboys, 'the reg lar fellers wot work winter an sum- mer,' want to organize a recognized union. and have asked Mayor George A. Quigley to assist in passing a city ordinance that will protect them from what they call unjust competi- ton. The newsies want the city to pass an ordinance recognizing their work and providing for the licensing of all newsboys, who will be recog- nized by special badge the same as the Hartford boys wear.
 A quartet of little newsboys headed by Louis Rischow, of 214 Arch street, as spokesman, and backed up by George Kolosky, of A Sexton street; Tony Gallo, of 1O6 Fremont street, visited Mayor Quigley at his office yesterday afternoon and set forth their grievances. According to the neWsboys' story, they sell their pa pers every night in the year, on the cold Wintry nights when the ther- mometer flirts with zero as we'll as during the pleasant summer months. It is during vacation time, however, that they feel they have unjust com- petition. They claim that many of the smaller boys from schools take up the practice of selling papers and thus make material inroads into their sales. What the boys want, they say, is a city ordinance that will provide for the licensing of all neWsboys. The spokesman said he would be willing to pay a fee of $5 per year for this protection, and when the mayor sug- gested that this would be too much, the little fellow proudly explained that "ye kin give it ter the Red Cross. We're doing our part ter help win the war and can the Kaiser. We buy Thrift Stamps an everythin, and Phil there has got a hundreddollar Lib erty Bond too"
 As a further argument in favor of the union, the young spokesman said that many of the boys who peddlc papers on the street are too young. Yer know, they hop on the back of wagons, chase in front of autos and jump onto cars and they're apt to get hurt. They're too small'
 The spokesman himself probably measured three and one-half feet, but he claimed to have the right idea. Later today the boys planned to have another session with the mayor.
