Outside of Explosion in New - York Harbor. New York, July 30.—Property loss estimated at $25,000,000 was lcaused early today:by a series of | terrifie/explosions of ammunition jawaiting shipment to the entente lallies and stored on Black Tom jisland, a small strip of land jut- ting into New York bay off Jer- sey City. The loss of life was i still problematical tonight. It will |not be determined definitely un- |til there has been opportunity to \check up the workmen employed on the island and on boats moored | nearby. \ | Two are known to be dead and jat least two more are missing. |Seores of persons were injured, 'some of them probably fatally. The detonations, which were \felt in five states, began witha ‘continuous rapid fire of small |shells, then the blowing up of | great.quantities of dynamite, trin- /itratoluene and other high explos- lives, followed by the -bursting of [thousands of shrapnel _ shells which literally showered the sur- rounding country and waters for many miles around, Fire that started soon after the first great crash, which spread death and desolation in its wake, destroyed thirteen of the ware- houses of the National Storage Company on Black Tom island, in which were stored merchandise valued at between $12,000,000 and #15,000,000. The flames, shooting into the clouds, were reflected against New York’s line of tow- ering office buildings, which only a-few“moments-before—were-shak- en to their foundations as if by an earthquake.

Of the large cities Chicago seems to have been the worst suf- ferer. At four o’clock Sunday af- ternoon the thermometer regis- tered 102 degrees; which is in a fraction of a degree of the hot weather record. The death list reached 100 during the day. The morning.
