OFFICIALS PROBE
''GAS" EXPLOSION;
TEN KNOWN DEAD

MEMPHIS. Tenn, January ga
three investigation by
agents Of the United States bureau
of explosives, representatives OF
the oil company and local officials
was under way today to definitely
determine the cause of the ex-
plosion of a tank car of gasoline
at the plant of the Colyar Reese
Company here Saturday. which
killed ten negroes and caused
widespread damage to property.
Approximately a score OF persons
were injured, and hospital reports
indicate that several still are in
a critical condition.
Two white employees OF the Col
var Reese Company are among the
injured. Both were badly burned.
Colyar Reese, president CT the
oil company. attributed the eX-
plosion to spontaneous combustion,
which occurred when vapor from
the gasoline. released when the
dome of the tank car was removed.
came in contact with the atmos-
phere. Another theory was that
the explosion might have been due
to a spark from the chisel of a
workman opening the dome.
D. L. Andrews. local representa-
tive of the federal bureau Of ex-
plosives, was of the opinion that
use of chisel in opening the dome
lid of the tank car might have
caused a spark. which. coming in
contact with escaping vapor from
the tank, possibly ignited thes
fumes and set off the explosion.
Andrew Mckinley. negro work
man who opened the car lid, was
fatally burned.
