wisps of smoke spiral up from the

A terrific blaze shot up high into

immense buildings were blown up.
Smoke, debris, tattered shreds Of law

were destroyed and scattered in
pieces. The sky was blackened and

Ambulances bringing doctors and

There was a lull in firing through

Undoubtedly the casualties in the
explosion were very heavy.

Persons who had remained in the
neighborhood during the fighting, fed
in terror after the crash. They ran
