Fumes Overcome Eighteen At Mt Carbon Gunpowder Works
Eighteen men were overcome by fumes of nitric acid at the Atlas Powder company gunpowder works in Mt Carbon. They were taken to open air and some remained in serious condition but are recovering. The plant has shifted to Dupont control and drew New York capitalists seeking a new site near water and rail lines. A separate accident in Hazleton left Mrs Charlee Lerch dead and her husband severely injured when a streetcar derailed from Nescopeck Mountain, crashing into a rock near Task, Lehigh County, due to a steering gear failure.
