With a lead of approximately 50,-

would be renominated. as Indications
are that Longs county majority
would fall short OF this number. The

~ B. M. Jewell, president Of the

Refusal of the railway executives
at their conference in New York to
accede to the peace plan proposed by
President Harding Is generally re-
garded as having closed the door 10
peace for the time being at least.
There was no apparent clarity OF
opinion here as to what steps might
be now taken to bring about ad-
justment of the controversy.
President Harding's declaration in
his letter to the rail executives tIlat
II the managers cannot accept they
will be obliged to open direct nego-
tiations or assume full responsibility
for the situation" was regarded by
union leaders as a tacit Endorsement
OF their position.
The rail officials refusal to accept
the plan for restoration Of seniority
rights to the strikers will be met, IL
appeared certain, by equal firmness
on the part of the unions not to re-
turn to work until seniority rights
are guaranteed. Thus, an issue that
was entirely lacking when the strike
was called has become the .shief
obstacles in the way of settlement Of
the walk out.

Fire Follows Blast on Vessel.
Craft Near Brooklyn
Bridge.

NEW YORK, Aug. From
five to ten men were killed today
when a boiler exploded on a tug
boat in East River at the foot
of Gold street, Brooklyn.
The tug boat was owned by
the East River Towing Company.
Fire followed the explosion.
Viewed From Bridge.
The boat was almost under
Brooklyn hyidge at the time Of the
explosion and scores OF pedestrians
on the bridge heard the blast and
saw the fire that followed.
In addition to the dead, four men
were known to have been injured.
According to early reports reaching
the Brooklyn police. none Of the
injured was upon the boat. They
were said to have been hurt by
flying debris.
Persons on the water front said
that they saw several men on the
deck of the boat manning ropes
at the time Of the explosion but
afterward no trace Of them was
seen.
Captains Body Found.
An hour after the blast, a body,
believed to be that Of Thomas Nc.
Caffery. captain OF the Edward, was
found floating in the water. At
that time the police estimated that
five more men were missing.
The explosion left only shell Of
the tug and II soon sank from sight.
II was reported at first that ten
men were killed, but later officials
Of the East River Towing Company
said that they did not believe that
many men were on board.
The force Of the explosion was
such that windows in the water
front were broken.
Police and fire boats we're rushed
to the scene Immediately after the
blast and began searching for bodies
Of the dead.
The tug, which was called The
Edward" was warping into her pier
as the explosion took place.
Some OF the victims were blown
clear of the vessel, their bodies fall.
ing into the river.
The blast blew away a section OF
the wall OF the big edison plant
nearby, and showered debris over
a radius of half block
The report Of the explosion could
be heard all over that section OF the
Brooklyn water front bordering
Brooklyn Bridge. Various rumors
as to the nature OF the accident
began to circulate at once. 1t was
first reported that a big army air.
plane had crashed into an office
building.
