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.
