THE PEOPLE. BARNWELL. S. C. i. THREE KILLED WHEN 400 CASES OF DYNAMITE GO OFF Charlotte, N. C.—Three negroes were killed by the explosion of around 400 cases of dynamite at one of the storehouses of the Rhlnehart & Dennis Construction company at Mountain Island dam, according to reports received here. The cause of the explosion is un known, but one theory advanced vyas that one of the negroes had fired a pistol, either while inside the building, or into the building, setting off the explosive. The force of the explosiop was plainly felt at Mounty Holly, three miles away, and it was heard for miles around, it was stated. A number of trees in the neigh borhood of the storage house were blown down by the force ol the ex plosion and a yawning cavern was left to mark the site of the house after the accident. cheat m YIELD FOR YEAR IS ESTIMATED AT 10,575,000 BALES IN THE FINAL FORECAST.
