"BOMBS" ON LAPLAND
FIRE EXTINGUISHERS
Acid in Odd Bottles Causes
Heated Arsrtinient Between
Tiinnev and EffaVOa
The secret of flie mysterious bottles
found in the, hold of the White Star j
liner laplaiul Tuesday night was solved
yesterday, but not until after a heated ,
argument between Capt Tiinney of the'
"bomb siUad" and Inspector Owen i;gari
of the bureau of combustibles.
The Inspector after an analysis of the !
contents of the two peculiarly shaped
bottles announced that they contained
concentrated sulphuric acid, which on
coming In contact wlt'h metal would
give off hydrogen gas. This gas If ex
posed to an open flame would result In
an explosion calculated to set the ship
011 fire.
Capt. Tunney. on the other band, an
nounced that the puxxllng Uittlos were
nothing more than refills of a lype of I
fire extinguishing hand grenades used
by ste. unship companies. To back up
his assertion he showed that there was
a barrel of the bottles nearby containing
500 of the supposed bomhs besides more
In use in the Are extinguishers about the
1. upland.
Both Capt. Tunney and Inspector
Kg.. n were right. The argument arose
because, however exjiert they may be In
detecting bombs, they did not happen
to be familiar with the manufacture tt
Are extinguishers. At the office of the
I'nlted States Fire Krtlngulsber In
spectlun Company, If 3 Liberty street.
It was explained that lulpburlc add la
put Into the majority of extinguishers,
together wlUli bicarbonate of soda.
When the grenade Is uead the glass
bottle of odd Is broken and mixing
with the soda, produces carbon dioxide
and suffocates the flames
The liability of the sulphuric sold to
form OOmbUSllbtS gas when coming In
OOntaOt with metal Is the reason both
for the bottle anil Its peculiar shape,
which gave rise Ui the erjHpicioii of a
bomb. In older that no metal may
