Gary, Ind.r Nov.13. At least six per
sons are1 known to have been killed to
day In an explosion which wrecked the
pack , house or, the Aetna aowacr
plant at Aetna, near here. Tltt bodies
of William Halpln, Oscar Carlson and
-C. Carlson have been recovered. It is
feared that other bodies are burled In
the debris. Twenty persons were in
jured, y '
Superintendent Edwards thinks the
explosion resulted from the stoppage of
tho machinery which packs the dyna
mite "crimps" and the shells. He be
lieves the Jar from the machinery was
the direct cause.
The bodies of three unidentified men
were blown to bits. About 1000 pounds
of dynamite, stored In the wrecked pack
house, exploded, and It is regarded as
miraculous that the shock did not cause
explosions In. the other eight pack
houses nearby:
The shock from the explosion was
terrific. It was felt at Grand Haven,
Mich., residents there believing they
were experiencing an earthquake. Rall-
QaxL-Araeka a mlleJroinaMantjwere

Latest reports here from Aetna say
none of the injured will die.

New York, Nov. 12. Universal suf

Britain within 10 years will result from
the woman suffrage victories in Oregon,
Michigan and Kansas, according to Dr.
Anna Howard Shaw, president of the
National Woman Suffrage association,
here today... She said:
"We hold the balance of power 70
electoral votes In any closely con
tested election. When the political par
ties are brought to recognize that fact
we wlli no longer need to -plead for the
franchise. It will be given to us.
"Men fear that woman will" seek the
spoils of office. That is their main
reason for hesitancy In espousing the
suffrage Idea, That Is wrong. Had I
to choose between a man and woman
for an office, each equally equipped,
I would vote for the man. Woman,
