EXPERT BLAMES
GAS FOR BLAST
AT COLUMBUS, 0.
Du Point Engineer SCOTS at

COLUMBUS, O., April l6.-Ac-
cumulated gas caused the explosion
which partly wrecked Ohio's $5,OOO,-
OOO Office building, killing eight per-
sons and injuring sixty, according
70 a final report prepared today by
r. b. Bickle, technical chemical en-
glneer for the Du Pont company,
who investigated on invitation of
the Governor.
Bickle said definitely the blast
was not caused by dynamite, TINT
or nitroglycerine. 1t could only have
been caused by natural or sewer
gas, he said.
Everything, ali the evidence.
supports my original conclusion that
the blast was not caused by any
nigh explosives" Bickle said.
There is nothing whatever to
indicate that it might have been.
everything tends to prove the con-
trary."
The expert said conditions we're
ideal for gas explosion in the
lower levels of the building.
A sub-basement compartment of
considerable size remained under
The lower floor where thousands of
cubic feet Of gas could accumulate
A city engineer revealed a 56-inch
sewer ran almost directly beneath
the chamber and that eight ga
RACES drained refuse into this pipe
from which both sewer gas and gas
oline fumes might have risen.
The explosion occurred a few
minutes after men drilled a hole
to this chamber.

SAPP likely TO
keep POST ON
HIGHWAY GROUP
Leslie Reported Favorable
to Reappointment of
Huntington Man.

Governor Harry G. Leslie was not
at his office today, but he was re-
ported considering reappointment
of Arthur L. Sapp, Huntington, as
member of the state highway
commission.
Sapp's term expires Sunday and
the Governors decision in the mat
ter is expected Monday.
Leslie was reported backing Sapp
for the Republican nomination fer
Governor, thereby debating his sue
cessor to the high ofice.
Fails to Materialize
Sapp was scheduled to announce
his candidacy and withdraw from
the highway commission to make
the race. but this move failed to
materialize.
Sapp'S appointment to the COM
mission last year was received with
great joy by sincere well wiShers
of the state administration, who
were rejoicing over the resignation
of Jess Murden, Peru, whose COM
mission career caused the Governor
some embarrassment.
Things went smoothly at first, but
soon it developed that Murden had
advocated the Sapp appointment
and the more things changed on
the commission the more it re-
manned the same.
Joins With Wedeking
This was disclosed dramatically
recently when Sapp joined with
Chairman Albert j. Wedeking in
putting across the Versailles-Madi-
son road deal for rock asphalt at a
price higher than either bituminous
retread or concrete, which were
both in the competition.
Such a hue and cry was aroused

Of Milk Route for Three Years,
Remembers All Stops.
By United Press
KENDALLVILLE, Ind, April Is.
Scott Whitford, dairyman, used
his horse, Fannie, on a milk route
for twenty years. The horse learned
the entire route, stopping at all GUS
toners homes without order from
Whitford.
Three years ago Whitford pur-
chased a truck and Fannie started
a well-earned vacation.
Recently the truck was damaged
in an accident. Whitford brought
out the old milk cart and hitched
up Fannie for the regular run.
Although it had been three years
since she had made the trip, the
horse remembered all the stops
without an error, Whitford said. She
was confused somewhat by GUS
toners added since her last trip,
but after three days she had learned
all these, Whitford said.

BARROW CALLED
ON TO IDENTIFY
NATIVE SLAYER
State Wants Killer Named
Before Further Honor
Insanity Pleas.
BY DAN CAMPBELL
United Press stan Correspondent

HONOLULU, April 16.-Clarence
Darow was confronted by prosecu-
ton demands for an immediate
showdown in naming the slayer of
Joe Kahahawai when he rose today
from a sick bed to resume defense
Of four accused Americana.
The murder trial, interrupted at a
crucial point by the aged attorneys
illness, was to continue today in a
conference of judge and opposing
counsel, with Darrow facing one of
the most important battles Of his
case.
John Kelley, fiery territorial
prosecutor who seeks life sentence
for Mrs. Granville Roland For
tescue, her navy officer son-in-law,
Lieutenant Thomas H. MaSSie, and
Seamen A. O. Jones and E. j.
Lord, announced he will resist fur
Their defense testimony only until
the actual slayer in brought into the
open.
Aimed at Massie
The demand was aimed chiefly at
Lieutenant MasSie, whose graphic
story of a brutal attack on his wife
by gang of island hoodlums-one
of whom allegedly was Kahahawai
has been the only mitigating evil
dence.
When Lieutenant MaSsie is re-
called to the stand he is expected to
relate for the first time what hap
pened last January when Kahaha-
wal was spirited away from this an
cient judiciary building and bull
let fired into his heart, thus re-
vealing who did the shooting.
Kelley's point, however, was that
Darrow first must name the slayer,
if Lieutenant Massie is to be per-
Aitted to bring the Ala Moana case
as the attack on Mrs. Thalia For
tescue Massie is known-fUrther into
this trial.
Darrow's announcement that an
insanity plea would be brought up
on behalf of the actual slayer
spurred Kelley in his demands.
1--WE want to know for whom in
sanity is being pleaded" Kelley said.
eff this is admitted, we presume it
automatically would disclose the
