EXPLOSION" CAUSES LARGE
LOSS AT SOUTH IJETH LEII EM
South Bethlehem, Pa., Dee. 27.
Damage to the blast furnace depart
ment of the Bethlehem Steel Companv
of nearly one hundred thousand dol
lars and a loss of much more than
that amount, through curtailment of
operations of many departments of
the Lehigh plant was caused yester
day by an explosion in the gas-scrub
bing departments.
It is said the cause of the explosion
was due to the sudden breaking of one
of the huge mains that supply the en
tire plant with water. The explosion
blew up the chawky building and in
turn the gas building. Almost the en
tire Bethlehem steel plant is run by
electricity, and the huge dynamos are
operated by gas. The cutting of the
gas supply, by reason of the explo
sion, has seriously handicapped the
operations of departments and tem
porarily thrown many men out of
work. The new merchant mill is closed
down.

Notice to Brotherhoods
Regarding Eight-Hour Law
Notices signed by representatives of
both the railroad and the brother
hoods have been posted on the Penn
sylvania bulletin boards along the sys
tem informing the trainmen that the
Adamson law would not be put into
effect on January 1, but that both
sides had agreed to await the Supreme
Court'R decision on the constitutionality
of the eight-hour law.
The railroad, however, is to keep
strict account of the men's time, and
If the decision is favorable to the
brotherhoods the trainmen will receive
back pay computed on the eight-hour
basis. There will, therefore, be no
change in the present working hours
and conditions on January 1. The
men will continue on the same sched
ule now in vogue until the court's de
cision is handed down. This arrange
ment is perfectly satisfactory to the
men, who feel sure the' law will be
upheld.
Chairman S. R. Tamer Tells
of Railroad Preparations l
Pittsburgh, Dec. 27.- —S. R. Tamer,
chairman of the Pennsylvania State
legislative committee of the Order of
Railway Conductors, said yesterday
that local brotherhood men are mak
ing no preparations as to their work
ing hours, pending the decision of the
United States Supreme Court on the
nppeal attacking the constitutionality
of the Adamson eight-hour law,
"f understand that the grand officers
of the national brotherhood and the
railroad managers are having a con
ference in New York and are trying
to adjust the matter pending the
court s decision." Mr. Tarner said.
We cant do anything until they get
together. If they find a satisfactory
way to bring about some agreement an
the eight-hour lnw question we will be
governed accordingly. I don't know
I how they will act, but enforcement of
| the law rests with the President."
