slept in school houses, others in private
homes and mauy women were cared for
at hospitals.
Red Glare Lights Sky
Throughout last night a red glare
lighted the sky of the Jersey shore. Up
to midnight great puffs of smoke fol
lowed by terrific explosions told of
new batches of shells that were letting
go.
In all about five hundred thousand
shells were destroyed. Thev were the
last of an $83,000,000 order the car

and half of high explosive typo.
Investigation Starts
Mayor Clay of Kingsland, the coun
ty authorities and officials of the coin-
j pnny started an investigation today
Clay declared it had been virtually es-
1 tablished that the fire and subsequent
explosions were caused by an electric
wire falling into a vat. This started
a blaze. The fire quickly spread and
within a short time the first explosives
were reached. In rapid succession the
3!) frame buildings comprising the
plant were set ablaze and the explo
sions of the shells stored there could
be heard for miles.
With the issuance of orders for the
people of Kingsland to leave their
homes, the police were instructed to
shoot down possible looters who refus
ed to surrender upon command. About
50 arrests were made. Most of those
taken into custody, however, were mere
ly suspects and were released today.
Permits were also issued today for
the inhabitants of Kingsland to return
to their shell-wrecked homes. Only four
houses in the town were destroyed by
fire but none escaped the shelling which
came from the plant.
Scores of employes who were in the
plant when the fire started were still

Strange Sighte in Village
Kingsland, X. .., Jan. 12. Strange
sights greeted the eye in the shell
wept area of this village and its out
lands at dawn today.
Men, women and children, weirdly
clad and dragging outlandish bundles,
struggled homeward through the now
intermittent shell fire from the Ca
nadian Car and Foundry plunt. Some
of the courage that gave place to ter
ror as they fled from the whistling
shells into the bitter cold, dark night,
had returned.
They had tasted of the experiences
of citizens of shell wrecked towns in
the European war zones.
Over a frosted hillside, topped by a
graveyard a little procession of men
made their way in the early light. They
were the niounrers, who, when a big
'shell whined past them as they stood
beside the cot tin at, the grac
it the grave, dropped
their burden and Wed.
Trudging down the Jersey City road
j.nl fields dotted with spent shells,
went two young women, thinly und
j none too completely clad. One had a
babe in arms; the other staggered be
neath a small mountain of bedding.
"Where are you going.'" they were
asked.
"Away from here," the woman with I ,ack in ten davs.
the babe spoke. She snid she didn't). I
know exactly where, but any place
else would do. Her husband, she knew
nothing of. Both had worked ill the
shell factoryvand both had fled, panic
stricken by different routes.
Asked where her home was, she said
she had not had much of a home any-
I how, so it made no difference.
A little further on stood a roai!
house and smashed windows told their i
own story ot what had happened there.
Inside, behind the bar, stood jolly,
rotund Frank Briniski, laughing at
what he culled his "baby visitors"
three long shrapnel cases ranged nose
u" on the bar. '
