ACID PLANT FIRE
is LAID TO SPIES
Bomb the Probable Cause of
Blaze at Chauncey.

Discovery that an external explosion
caused a fire which destroyed part OF
the plant Of the Strausser Chemical Com
pany a. Chauncey. n town near pobbs

,gating the blaze last night 10 believe
German spies had placed a IRE bomb
outside the main building OF the plant.
which Ia manufacturing acids used by
the Government In making explosives.
For a time II was thought the initial
explosion had been caused by the chem
lcals inside the plant. but Arthur Wal
tiers. general manager OF the Strausser
company. said the investigation had dis
closed positively that the explosion oc-
CURED outside the main building. An
electrician was at work outside the
building a considerable distance from
where the explosion occurred. Part Of
the wall upon which he was working
was blown down.
Only fifteen men were in the plant
when the explosion occurred They all
got safely out of the main building be-
fore the FIRE reached the chemicals. The
flames spread quickly. and because OF
lack of water the fremen were ham
pered in their efforts to keep the FIRE
away from several huge tanks OF chem
icals and acid buried near the plant.
This danger was averted, however, when
additional firemen were called from
Dobbs Ferry and Ardsley.
