Sheets of flame sprang from the ruins and the spectators realized that It would be im possible to save the lives of those caught In the wreck. , Balldlna Torn and Twisted. The explosion was of such force that ad Joining buildings' were wrecked, torn and twisted like toys. Men, women and boys at work in adjoining departments were hurled through windows to the ground below. Many of them escaped with but slight bruises, but most of the victims were hurt to such an extent that it was necessary to remove them to hospitals. The others were taken to their homes. The dead: H.

While the fire was still burning police, firemen and employes of the packing' firm began digging in the ruins. 8oon the man gled remains of a man were discovered. At the same time other rescuers were digging with desperation to rescue several victims who were still alive. Bodies, torn, bruised and mangled, were taken from the ruins and sent to the morgues. A boy, scalded from head to toot and bleeding from cuts and bruises, staggered toward the office of the general superin tendent. He was Mr. Young's personal mes senger, but had been ao badly disfigured that Mr. Young did not recognize htm.. Many theorlea were advanced as to the responsibility for the disaster. One in spector declared that the explosion had been caused by cold water Injected Into the boiler, but a majority held that the catas trophe bad been caused by low water. Noth ing definite waa learned, however, and as all the men In the boiler room were killed It Is not likely the cause of the accident will ever be known. It is not thought that the loss to Swift ft Company will amount to more than 150, 000. KELLY FORMALLY ARRAIGNED Trri Ks Resistance, aa He la oa His War Home When Placed -la Castody.
