FIND MUCH BOOZE
BURIED IN STRAW STACK

Aberdeen, Nor. S.-A Cadillac au-
tomobile and 1856 quarts of Canadian
whisky were confiscated at Ashton.
When two men We're seen lettering
around a haystack, the authorities be-
came suspicious. The stack was
searched, n the whisky was found
buried deeply in the hay.
When the men found the authori-
ties on heir trail they abandoned
their car and made for the, fields. So
far no trace of them has beer found.
Sheriff George Williamson and the
state sheriff arrived at Ashton and
took the liquor to Huron for safe
keeping.
According to the evidence found
among the belongings of the men
who escaped there are still II of the
sacks of liquor hidden in the vicinity
Of Ashton. A search is being made.

The explosion struck the financial
district with the force of an earth
quake, Earring buildings, smashing
windows and throwing bankers and
brokers into panic. !
About 200 pounds Of slugs were
picked up against the. Wall street
side of the Morgan building and in
front OF the Sub-treasury building.
The solid masonry Of the two
buildings bore numerous dents from
the violent bombardment.
A messenger, VINO was near Wall
and Broad streets when the blast
occurred, told the police that four
men drove up In front OF the SUBJ
treasury in wagon, left the vehicle
and disappeared in the crowd. The
men hurried south on Broad street
and . few moments later the blast
took place.
The United States regulars thrown
around the sub-treasury were under
command Of Colonel Bluemell. There
were 100 soldiers from an infantry
unit station on Governors island,
with fixed bayonets and loaded rifles.
They paced up and down the street.
An army Of workers began clearing
away the debris within the Morgan
offices and streets outside, search
ing for more bodies.
Investigations were under way
this afternoon by the United States
government, the police department
and the district attorneys office.
Experts in the handling of explosives
were divided in their opinions as to
the cause. Some professed belief
that It was not dynamite, because,
they pointed out, dynamite would
have torn tremendous hole in the
street. The hole in the street in
front Of the United States Sub-treas-
ury building was comparatively
small.
Junius Spencer Morgan was on
the first floor of the bank buildings
when the blast let 60. He was
caught in a shower OF flying glass
and falling plaster. It was originally
reported that he was seriously cut
about the hands, but his injuries
were so slight that he paid no atten-
ton to them and assisted in giving
first aid to the others who were hurt.
Later Mr.. Morgan and friend went
to lunch together.
