circumstances are followe On August 5, 1917 a melting-pot, ased for refining high explosivaa. etan.axplosives factory, was being freed from a deposit of sediment which had accumulated. Daring. the absence of Lieutenant Harper (one of the managers of the factory) a foremen attempted to break away the sediment, which was of a highe fly explozive nature, with an iron bar. The mixture fused, giving cff Berce Rames and thick fumes, On bie arrival Lieutenant Harper at once orawled with a hoss underneath the pot, which was raised about three feet from the ground, and directed water at the fimen immediately above him. It was not until five or six hores had been brought to bear on the pot for some time that the barning mixture was cooled down. Meanwhile there “was imminent risk ofan explosica, which would certainly hare killed Lieutenant Herper and must have involved other buildinge rear. by, where 25 tons of high explosives were stored. Had such an explosión oscarred, great loss of life and material damage must inevitably have resulted.
