EIGHT PERSONS DUD IS
RESULTJFEXPLflSiON
Of Thirty-five Showered
With Blazing Oil, Seven
More Badly Burned.
CINCINNATI, July SI. Out of the
thirty-five persons who suffered burns
when the explosion of the gasoline
tank on Odin Johnson's motorcycle at
Ihe Lagoon, Ky motordrome lant
algit, showered spectators with burn
ing oil, eight had died up to 8 o'clock
;oda.y. One other, a woman, cannot
recover, the attending physicians say,
While seven others are In a serious
condition and not out of danger. Of
ihe others, eight suffered more or less
painful injuries, but did not require
treatment in hospitals.
The explosion occurred after John
son had collided with an electric llgnt
pole and the racer himself was among
the first victims. Statements from
several of the eye witnesses indicated
that Johnson's daring attempt to pass
another rider was the primary cause
of the accident.
He is said to have come In conta-t
with the machine piloted by G. Banna
of the Cleveland team, while trying
to pans the latter on the upper eleva
tion of the trark. The impact was
slight but enough to force Johnson to
head Ms machine toward the upper
railing. He appeared at that time to
have plenty of room but the machine
seemed to have refused to right itself
and crashed into a pole that was some
distance beyond the danger mark on
the track.

NARRAGANSETT PIER, R. L, July
SI. The Jewels stolen from ths sum

and John J, Hanan are being sought
In New York, Boston and other cities
where big transactions In precious
stones are not uncommon. Large
dealers In diamonds have been cau
tioned against dealing with stranger
who have Jewelry of great value for
sale.
Although the police throughout the
country hav been asked to watch
pawn shops, detectives are satisfied
the robberies ere the work of an ex
pert sang who are too shrewd to do
business with pawnbrokers. The mys
terious automobile seen on ocean road
Saturday night Is the most important
clue and after learning all he could
about this oar, ons of the detectives
engaged by Mrs. Hanan left for New
York today.
'The detectives," said Mra Hanan,
"are as much of a puzzle to me as ths
whereabouts of my Jewelry. Ths first
word I havs had from ths detectives
was the assurance from the operative
today that tie learned something very
important and was to go to New York
at ones."
When tbs, detectives began work on
tbs Hanan case they declared that it
was sn "Inside" job. But when a
day later the Rumsey cottage was
entered, they modified their views and
thought they saw the hand of an ex-
perlenced thief.
