BOILER BLOWS UP
ENGINEER, FIREMAN
FATALLY INJURED

Walpole, Mass, Aug. 13-The engi-
neer and fireman of New York,
New Haven and Hartford railroad
train bound from Providence to Bos-
ton today were probably fatally in
jured when the boiler of the locomo-
tive blew up at bridge south of the
Walpole station. Two passengers on
the three car train were injured
slightly. The train ran about a quar-
ter Of mile after the accident be-
fore it could be stopped with the
brakes.
The accident occurred about a
quarter of a mile south Of the station
here, when the train was crossing the
bridge over a small creek, a tributary
OF the Neponset river The boiler
was blown completely off the gear
and went about 800 feet before land :
ing. II dug a hole some 10 feet in
diameter and 10 feet deep, rebound
ed, and came to rest on an eight-foot
embankment.
Engineer James Henry Of Frank
lin was picked out Of the creek. Fire.
man W. L. Hanley of Dorchester was
found in field nearby. At hospital
here il was thought both probably
would die. The only two passengers
injured wese Miss Anita Wholly Of
Hyde Park and Mrs. Fred Griffin Of
Boston. both OF whom were bruised
and shaken. a number OF children
were bathing in the creek when tho
explosion occurred and some Of them
were slightly burned.

Charleville, France, Aug. 19.-(By
A. PD-Premier Poincare, speaking
today within the shadow of the
building which was the seat of the
German military headquarters dur
ing the war, delivered an address
virtually devoted to sefuting the
arguments advanced in the note of
Lord Curzon, the British foreign
secretary Of August II. The premier
made little reference to the declara-
tons of DR.. Gustav Stresemann, the
new German chancellor, in the
Rechstag last week.
NJ. POincare quoted the Versailles
treaty as authority Tor the legality
of the occupation of the Ruhr, cited
figures to show that unemployment
in England had decreased and that
railroad traffic and shipping had in
creased since the French entered
Essen, and reiterated the French
governments earnest desire to come
to an agreement with the British
government on questions in dispute.
After recalling the hardships suf-
fered by the population of Charleville
during German occupation, NJ. Poin-
care related at length the various
phases of the military operations
for the relief of the city and eulogiZ-
ed the part played by the American
soldiers under General Pershing in
it and the close cooperation of all
the allies toward winning the war.
The alliances having survived the
war" said NJ. Poincare. 1.-THE allies
might have hoped then that the
monument which they had erected
and cemented with their blood would
remain standing upright. indestruc-
tible and unshakeable. But, nations.
like men, understand better the nee
cssity to unite during great cata-
clysms and great crises. than during
the discomtorts OF convalesccncc.

SEAPLANE FALLS To
WATER; 5 ABOARD
INSTANTLY KILLED
DECLARES FRANCE
WILL DRAW BLANK
IN OCCUPATION RUHR

Washington. Aug. 1s.-France soon
will face new problem of getting any
return at all from its occupation of
the Ruhr. Basil Miles, American ad-
ministrative commissioner of the In.
ternational Chamber Of Commerce at
Paris. declared in a review Of the eco
nomic situation in the region. With
productions at a standstill. he found
stocks of coal and coke accumulated
before the occupation are being ex-
hausted and may not last longer than
four or five months.
Mr. Miles report. which was made
public today by the American section
of the international chamber estimates
that the occupation is yielding France
only about one-third the amount of fuel
received previously in reparations de-
llveries. and he asserts that the idea
that the French can produce Ruhr
coal, coke and steed without the COOPER
alton of German labor is fantastic I'M
der any conditions approximating those
which exist at present"
Instead of deteriorating, the Ruhr is
improving industrially during the &C.
cupation, says Mr.. Miles. explaining
that the workmen are being employed
in productive development activi-
ties such as overhauling factories,
opening new veins of coal. building ad-
ditions to factories and charging
housing facilities. No unemployment
exists in the Ruhr. he adds. all avail
able labor being used in these develop
ment projects. which are placing the
district in a better economic position.
fundamentally. than prevailed before
the occupation.
French policy he says, lis not de-
signed to cripple the Ruhr industries
by denying them raw materials. nor to
curtail the food supply and consequent
ly the health of the population. The de-
preston Of industry and of production
generally is due to the state of moral
welfare between the French and the
Germans generally in the Ruhr. and
not to the inaccessibility of supplies Or
damage to industrial property
The physical health of Germany as
whole. Mr.. Miles declares. has not
been touched. since the nation has no
devastated areas either in material
wealth. as in the case of France. or in
unemployment. as in the case of Eng
land" while production has been con-
tinued, and its possibilities for the
future increased through Germany en-
ergy. organization. thrift and indus
try"
The French in the Ruhr. Mr.. Miles
adds. are making inventories of facto-
ries and other plants TO determine
their capacity and condition and to es-
| innate their value lin the event that,
Germany continuing to prove recalci-
| trant, the French and Belgians may
decide 10 confscate and sell them" and
devote the proceeds TO reparation pay
ments. In number OF cases. he says.
such inventories are resisted and the
workmcn strike, and the net result
has been a slowing down of mining and
factory production until it can be fairly
said that today. for all business pur-
poses, the Ruhr is asleep"

Worst Since 1906

Hong Kong. Aug. 18-tBy A. P.)-
Heavy loss of life is believed to have
been caused by typhoon that struck
the harbor here at 9.20 o'clock this
morning, that sent several ships to
the bottom and tossed others into
Ravens Of refuge. Many Europeans
were among the victims, II is feared.
The British submarine LIZ "a nd the
steamer Ming Sang Of British regis
ter, sank in the harbor. Only one
sailor is known to have been saved
from the submarine and there are but
two reported survivors from the Ming
Sang, both European officers.
II was the worst storm experienced
here since 1906. Following obserya-
tory warnings, ocean-going steamers
and small craft sought shelter last
night. Bomb fire signalled the ap-
proach of the storm centre this morn
ing. Within an hour the wind was
blowing with hurricane force and the
harbor was tempestuous.
The steamer Ming Sang whistied
long blasts of distress. A blue fun
mel tow boat made a heroic attempt
to reach the stricken vessel. The
high running sea made the rescue i'm
possible, and the Ming Sang went
