Powder mill blast injures workers at Carthage plant
In a March accident at a Carthage powder mill two men were killed instantly and several others injured when a blast ripped through the mixing room. The wounded workers Elnger Bowers Joseph Gayder Chas Newton and Hen Y Summmer were treated nearby. This marks the third such explosion at the facility in six months, following earlier deadly incidents. The mill crew had been handling nitro glycerin and glycorite during the blast that shattered walls and spread debris over yards. Two men Lester Ridge and Lert Cobb, both from Fimperlun Pa, were among the workers. Ralph Fairfield and Whiteside of Columbus opened a hardware store at Bartleville Indian Territory with John Fairfield joining as craftsman. Jay Fierer of the Whiteside hardware concern plans a move to a new outlet next year. The Bartleville venture signals a growing retail push in the region.
