Show DYNAMITE DISASTER. Strikers Blow up a Street Car, Injuring Innocent Passengers. Cleveland, O., July 25. A Euclid avenue car, loaded with passengers, was wrecked by an explosion of nitroglycerine nitro-glycerine or gun cotton, shortly before 11 o'clock Sunday night, and five passengers pas-sengers were severely injured, one woman wo-man being so badly hurt that sUe may die. The explosiou tore out the front end of the car, smashed all the windows and destroyed the brake. After considerable con-siderable difficulty the car was stopped and a call for ambulances was sent out. The motorman was dazed but the conductor con-ductor escaped injury. The force of the explosion was so great that it shook all the houses in the neighborhood and was heard for a distance of two or three miles. There is no clue to the identity of the person who placed the explosive on the track. Persons living in the neighborhood say they saw a mau in a buggy stop at the corner of Kensington street, where the explosion occurred, and go out by the railway track. He remained there for a short time and then drove rapidly away. |
