Shortly after 11 o'clock Wednesday
morning the contractors In charge of
the reconstruction work In the Geor
gia yards, at the foot of Alabama
street, exploded an unusually large
charge of dynamite along the base of
a concrete wall. This wall formed part
of the foundation of the temporary shed
which the road used during the erec
tion of the new building, which Is
crossed by the (’olllns street viaduct.
Owing to the fact that the charge was
so great, and that the material against
which It wan placed was hard as rock,
the foreman for the contractors, Mr.
8. E. Wire, compelled the draymen in
the yard and all the expressmen there
to leave, and notified the railroad
company that It would he safer to have
the clerks leave the new building, as
he feared the force of the' explosion
might shatter thqf glass and cut some
of the men at work there.
As a consequence, the drivers all
had their teams at the entrance to the
yard promptly at 11 o’clock, and the
railroad clerks came running out of the
new building. Everybody congregated
In what he or she deemed a safe place,
yet where the fireworks could be seen.
The result was that more people came,
and then otherfr.-and then some more, so
that when the fuse was lighted there
probably were 1,000 people there, and
more came running up after the explo.
slon.
Although the number of Injured or
killed was placed as high as forty by
the rumors that spread rapidly, not a
man was hurt, and while the wall
was crumpled like an eggshell, the
debris was not thrown over three feet
away from It.
"That shows that excellent Judgment
was used by the engineer," said an en
gineer who hurried to the place os aoon
as he heard a number of people had
been killed there.
Mr. Wire simply took proper pre
caution In warning the men near there
to get out of the vicinity. Anybody
who uses dynamite will tell you that
Its force Is something no one can ea-
tlmate—a stick will do twice the work
this afternoon that It would yester
day."

JUDSON CLEMENTS
TAKES ISSUE WITH
CHAIRMAN KNAPP
Washington. Sept. 18.—Judson C.
Clements, of Georgia, a member of the
Interstate commerce commission, takes
Issue with Chairman Martin A. Knapp,
who, In an Interview In Chicago Mon
day, declared that the Sherman anti
trust Jaw, In Its application to rail
roads and tho Interstate commerce act,
was utterly Inconsistent.
Chairman Knupp made ft plain also
that he believed that the time had come
In the management of railroads, when
co-operation should supplant competi
tion.
In commenting upon the observations
of the head of the Federal commission,
Judge Clements said:
"Without discussing the advisability
of permitting carriers to enter Into cer.
tain agreements which are now sup<
posed to be forbidden by the anti-trust
net, I have never yet been able to see
why the carriers enn not obey both tho
Interstate commerce act and the antl-
tiust act, or the necessity they arc ul
leged to be under, that to comply with
the one they must violate the other.
The anti-pooling provision of the In
terstate commerce act Is In perfect ac
cord with the purposes and principles
ot the anti-trust act.
If Publio Was Assured.
If the public could at all times be
assured of Just, reasonable and non'
discriminatory rates there Would, of
course, be no necessity for either ot
these acts as applied to the carriers.
Neither could there, In such a cose, be
objection to combination, so often des
ignated by the milder term of 'co-op
cration.'
"The experience of the world does
not prove that It Is safe to construct
inws upon the theory that no harm will
come to the consumers of any article
because of the pacific co-operation be
tween the' producers of the same
hereby competllton among themselves
Is destroyed or limited.
"The people who manage railroads
are not essentially different In their
nature from other classes of people.
They desire to make all they can out
of the business. Just aa other people do
In their lines of business. What they
can get when competition Is eliminated
may be more than Is Just and reason
able.
"Hence, there 1* necessity for main
taining. as far as possible, the natural
taws ot commerce and business In their
full vigor as a preventive of unjust and.
unreasonable rates, for It will never be
possible for any public tribunal to cor
rect on the spot Immediately all unjust
rates which may be put Into effect,
especially under a system of combina
tion where competition Is eliminated.
Rely Upon Natural Laws.
It Is better that the public ahould be
able to rely, as far as possible, upon
natural law* of trade, unrestricted, for
protection against cxt.irtlon rather than
to be at all times dependent alone upon
the action of any governmental tribunal
which of necessity. In every case, must
take the time necessary to hear con-
troveriea before It can decide them.
Prevention I* better than cure."
In discussing the proposal ot Presi
dent Roosevelt and Chairman Knapp
that "pooling" be legalised, thus ex
cepting railroads from the application
of the anti-trust act. Judge Clements
said:
"I do not believe In anything else un
der another name, which Is equivalent
to It."
Judge Clements' attention was called
to a report that the commission would
not reduce basic rate* and that a* a
rulo a conservative enforcement of tho
railroad rate act would prevail.
ment aa to what the commission will
do respecting basic rates,” he said. "In
all controversies pending before It, the
commission will proceed under the law,
upon full hearing, to determine each
case upon Ita merits and moke an order
accordingly.”
