! FLAMES DESTROY
I BIG STEEL PLANT
8. _ . I
BKTHIjKHKAI, I’a-, Nov. 10—A lire which broke oct today
in the number four machine shop of the Bethlehem Ste 1 Com
pany, almost completely destroyed the immense building, one
|of the largest and' the most important of them all, leaving
'nothing but a blackened steel skeleton where yesterday was a
great building employing an army of men. An investigation
of the catastrophe disclosed that the fire resulted from an ex
plosion of an elctric lamp. A spark from the explosion fell
into a pool of oil, and within no time at all the whole building
was in flames. It was impossible to control the conflagration,
and the character of the machines, many of them weighing
several tons, made it impossible to save any property. In the
machine shop were big guns totalling in value several million
dollars, in various steps of construction, and they are a total
, loss to the company- A thousand intricate and delicate
machines worth several million more were also destroyed.
The company was building big guns for the allies, and eight
hundred of these, almost completed were destroyed in the
blaze- This shop employed 2AOO men, and was never idle, as
i he employees were worked in day and night shifts.
[WILL CELEBRATE
£: In order to properly commemorate
the coronation today of the Emperor of
Japan there will be held a celebration
S: at the Red Dragon Club House tonight.
under the auspices of the Japanese
g: boys of Cordova. An interesting pro
gram has been arranged, including
speeches as to the importance of the
•X
corontion and the singing of the na
tional hymn. The cries of "banzai"
will also swell upward and the whole
affair, including a bannvet, will be a
(mark of respect nnd n sign of their
“ loyalty to the mother country by this
“j. ''ttlo bond of patriotic beys '-"n
apan who are residing in our midst
This is the first time since the reg'n
id Jim mu Tenno. 2,500 years ago, that
, people of 7a;: n or representatives
!of forign powers have been permitted
to participate in the eermonies ol
coronation. Before this, only the courl
and fedual lords and samurai were
there. This coronation, therefore, is
the bridge between the old and the
new Japan—it is the official exodus
for the impend.able feudality of the
past to the modernism and commence
ment of democracy of the present and
future. The first great step in the
modern political development of Japan
was taken by Emperor Mutsuhito in
1889 when lie granted a constitution
to his subjects. J
