Ottowa, Out., May 9. Fifteen dead
and twenty Injured in the General
Explosives Gunpowder plant ruins. It
is estimated that a loss of a hun
dred thousand dollars will result from
the magazine explosion last night. Earl
Grey was slightly injured at his home
here by the explosion which occurred
at Hull, four miles distant. Buildings
for a radius of a mile had windows
broken- and many small struc
tures were demolished. A large
crowd was near the plant watching
a baseball game, when fire was dis
covered, in the plant. People were
warned away only a. moment before
two tremendous detonations occurred
which stunned scores and killed fif
teen men.
The scene where the crowd from
the ball game stood resembles a bat
tlefield. Headless, armless and leg
less bodies were lying about among
senr s of unconscious forms. The si
lence that followed the final death
dealing blast was more terrifying than
the cries and moans which came with
a return to consciousness of the badly
injui ed.
' The terrific shock brought thous
j amis of terror stricken people into the
struts of Hull. Some thought it was
Jan earthquake, while others cried out
that the comet had struck the earth.
I Hundreds of chimneys were toppled
ovi-r and there is scarcely a whole
i window left in the northeastern sec-
t ion of the city.

FRISCO PEOPLE RISE AGAINST
ALLEGED "KI LE OF VICE"
San Francisco, May 9. Charges of
a packed meeting and similar recrim
inations are being hurled today by
many who attended the mass meeting
to protest against the "rule of vice"
which is alleged to be guiding the
course of San Francisco. Two thou
sand women nnd half as ninny men
j gathered to protest against McCar
thy's administration, and the police
twice suppressed disorders resulting
from the refusal of the president to
recognize persons who wanted to
speak. The mention of McCarthy's
name started evenly divided cheers
and hisses. They voted yes to a res
olution calling for a removal of the
present board of police commission
ers. DAYLIGHT BILL GAINING.
Iltixinesw Houses Adopt Method nnd
Admiralty Falls In Line.
London. Though the people of
many lands have laughed nt the day
light saving bill, framed to make the
nation get up early nnd get through
its work in the sunshine, the move
ment is gaining ground. Parliament
has held up the bill time nnd again.
But commercial initiative is getting
ahead of the politicians.
With the advent of May several
business firms In London nnd the
provinces have voluntarily put in op
eration the provisions of the bill. Some
of the government departments, too,
have adopted it. The admiralty, for
example, has agreed to allow Its whole
clerical force to start work nt an ear
lier hour so that It may get off an
hour sooner.
The postoffice has agreed to the
same course In those departments
where the staff has expressed any de
sire. William Willott, the author of
the scheme, declares that 200 mem
bers of the present house of commons
are pledged to vote In favor of It.
That Is not much practicnl use
though, In the delicate health of the
present parliament.

ATIIEXA PEOPLE HEADY
TO FIGHT TO FINISH
Wilon Would Scorn Judgeship in
New County "Influence Xot for
Sale" Athena Still Included In
irooscd County and Line Has
Been Extended Southward Closer to
Adams.
. J. P. N'eal and S. D. Peterson, em
issaries from the county division camp
at Milton, have been here today sup
posedly In the interests of "Orchard"
county. While here they have talked
over the subject of a conference with
local people, but thus far no an
nouncement regarding any such a
meeting has been made. It is under
stood the Milton-Freewater people are
willing to hold such a conference if
desired by the people of Pendleton,
Al'iHli.i and Weston.
In a phone interview with the East
On gonian today S. F, Wilson of Athe
na proposed the holding of such a
conference in the city of Athena. If
the people of those sections interested
In the division fight see fit to call such
a meeting for Athena. Mr. Wilson says
the people of that place will be glad
to om iiain the conference.
Wilson Is Opioscd.
In discussing the subject today. Mr.
Wilson, who Is one of the mort Influ
ential men in the Athena country, de
clared his firm opposition to division,
".f the Milton and Freewater people
want to Pave the county, then let
them take a little corner of the county
and go." says Mr Wilson. But we do
not want them to have any of the ter
ritory south of the Dry creek ridge. I
believe I know the sentiment of Athe
na people pretty well and I am sure
that It is entirely against division. We
do not want it and we will not stand
for it. We are ready to fight this
matter to the finish."
Offices Don't Tempt.
During the past 24 hours a report
has been in circulation that the di
visionists have a plan to win the af
fections of Athena and Weston peo
ple by offering residents of those
towns the official positions to be cre
ated if the new county succeeds. It
is on the slate, so it is reported, to
make S. F. Wilson county Judge. TI.
I Watts, school superintendent", and
to distribute the remaining officers
among other residents of Weston and
Athena.
Over the phone today Mr. Wilson
declared no overtures of such a na
ture had been made by the division
ists and laughed at the idea. Then he
said:
"Our influence is not for sale upon
such a basis as that and it would do
tin-in no good to try such a scheme."
It Is now understood that Instead
of changing the boundary lines of
"Orchard" county so ns to leave Athe
na In Umatilla county the line has
been extended farther southward so
as to take in more territory than was
originally intended. When the local
junketing party was at Milton Wed
nesday It was stated by leaders In the
division move that Athena was to be
left out of the proposed new county.
Evidently this plan has bi n changed.
