JAIL BLAST
CAUSES
1,1OO Prisoners Stampede,
Killing Guard-Pittsburgh
Police QuelI Panic.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Feb. H.
One guard was killed, another is
dying and 400 prisoners were
plunged into a seething riot to-
day when an explosion Of unknown
origin in the Western Pennsyl-
vania penitentiary at Riverside
tore a great hole in the center
Of the prison.
Police QuelI Disturbance.
With smoke from the blast still
curling about the great stone build
ing police reserves from every
available point in the Pittsburgh
district were being modified to
quell the riot brought on by the
pandemonium following the explo-
sion.
The dead guard was John Coax
and Guard j. A. Piper is not ex-
pected to live.
Warden John Egan took personal
supervision of the situation and
shortly after II o'clock stated that
the disturbance had been quelied.
Police Superintendent Brophy here
rushed a squad of men armed with
tear gas bombs after he had re-
ceived a report that many of the
men were armed and were firing
upon the guards. Numerous shots
were fired inside the prison and
scores of windows We're shattered as
the battle ragged inside the prison
walls.
100 In Savage Fight.
Great crowds in the streets out.
side the prison heard the rumble
of the prisoners mounting to a
roar as their panic grew.
More than 100 prisoners were re-
ported to have participated in the
savage fight in the corridors OF the
Jail.
Just before noon the six trustees
Of the penitentiary arrived here to
make an investigation of the causes
of the explosion. The explosion
was caused by a leaking gas main
according to the warden.

Of His Statement.
BY KENNETH w. CLARK,
International News Service.


Appearing voluntarily before tl.s
Senate Public Lands COMMITTEES
to explain and defend his en-
ployment by the Doheny oil in
terests, William Gibbs McAdoo,
leading candidate for the Demo
cratic Presidential nominationy1..s
day denounced efforts to drag his
name into the oil leasing scandal,
asserted he had done nothing
wrong and declared he was will
ing to let the country judge the
propriety Of his acts.
He declared, too, he was entire
ly willing that the public should
judge whether or not his name
had "been drawn into this in-
quiry to serve a partisan political
purpose"
Great Crowd Attends.
When McAdoo finished his testI.
mony, the crowd broke forth into
Notous applause, clapping and
cheering him. McAdoo finally held
up his hand for quiet but did not
speak. He paused to pose for
cameramen and when he left the
room, the crowd cheered him again.
The committee Immediately went
into executive session to consider
the appointments Of Silas H
Strawn of Chicago and Ex-senator
nf Onin OVNmEpAmS
prosecutors.
The greatest crowd that has yet
attended the hearings stormed the
committee room doors this morn
ing to gain admission. An hour
before the committee met there was
line half a block long seeking
places Of vantage.
After Being Sworn.
McAdoo read his statement in q
clear, firm voice, placing emphasis
where he considered 1t was neces-
sary. He was accompanied by his
campaign manager. David Ladd
Rockwell.
McAdoo staunchly defended his
taking employment with the Doheny
interests in 1919.
"Mr. Doheny's companies az well
as Mr.. Doheny enjoyed an enviatio
reputation when he called on me in
1919" said Mr.. McAdoo.
McAdoo has resigned from DOH
eny's employ since the revelations
brought out in connection with
the oil mans lease Of Elk Hills
Naval Reserve from former Secre-
tary of the Interior Fall within a
few months after he had loaned
the Cabinet officer 100000.
Hearty endorsement was given
by McAdoo to the present investi-
cation. He declared the pressing
duty of the hour was to mercilessly
uncover and bring to punishment
everyone who has betrayed public
trust" To this end, he said, he
was eager to see partisanship stilled
| in the face of SO grave danger TO
| our common country"
Text Of His Statement. ttS
McAdoo"s statement which he
read to the committee follows:
II am informed by your chair
man that already there has becn
inserted in the record the letter I

bayonet-tipped rifles to enforce It,
today came in as the governing
force in bloody Williamson
county, where forces of the Ku
Klux Klan, anti-kIan, vets, min
ers and civil officers are at war.
It was to succeed military
rule" in which Illinois guardsmen
had taken over all functions of
the civil authorities except ad-
ministration of the courts.
OminOus Quiet.
The quiet of dangerous prisoner
under heavy guard ruled over VIII.
hanson county.
General Foreman and a thousand
guardsmen from Chicago detrained
here at 10 a. m. to join the 700
troops of the 13Oth Illinois infantry
already on duty in the turbulent
mining county. The fresh troops
compose the 132nd Illinois infantry.
Action by the miners on their
threat to go out on strike unless
all kansmen were elected from the
ranks of the miners local unions was
expected.
Charges Of first-degree murder at
the coroner's inquest against those
held in connection with the shoot
ing to death Of Constable Caesar
eagle is considered likely.
Strike Is Scheduled.
Between four and six thousand
miners were scheduled to go OH
strike. according to information
given out by persons close to Hugh
Willis, district organizer for the
United Mine Workers of America
and member of the State mine
board, who is in jail charged with

Major General Foreman and the

Proclamation Of full martial law was
expected to follow their arrival by
not more than three hours.
Among those under arrest, who
were watching the coroner's in
quest closely, were Mayor c.. E.
Anderson. Sheriff George Galligan,
Health Commissioner John Gar.
valia and half score Of deputies
and private citizens.
KIansmen Barred.
The premise for the threatened
miners strike was found in article
IL Of the United Mine Workers
constitution, reaffirmed in the re.
cent Indianapolis convention, which
states that no member of the
union shall be a member Of the
Ku Klux Klan.
In recent raids led by g. Glenn
Young. Klan raider, whose activ-
tiles led to the indignation meeting
preceding the Staying of Constable
eagle, deputies Of Young have been
recognized as union members and
identified as members of the khan,
union workers stated.
Provocation OF the strike was
found also in the Imprisonment OF
Willis, who Is known among his
miner followers as "a strong man."
and an intrepid leader. He was
tried and acquitted in connection
with the Herrin massacre.
