(By The Associated I'resa.) ATHENS, April 20. Advices from Salonika today report great loss of life as a result of an ex plosion of war materials stored 200 metres from the Salonika railway station. Hundreds of children were buried in the ruins of a church on which shells fell and it was be lieved 1,800 soldiers were buried in the ruins of their barracks which were demolished, the advices state. The similarity of ths foiegoing despatch to one from Belgrade yes terday which reported an explos ion at Monastii in the southern part of Old Serbia, when an ammu nition dump blew up, makes it seem possible that both relate to the same disaster.
