after being packed the dynamite is shipped to the magazine. The white man Burton had had experience with [?loader] here but I do not know anything about him prior to his coming here. He had charge of the weighing and was foreman of the room. I do not know what caused the explosion. I know the usual precautions are taken. The men must not carry matches and must wear shoes with wood or brass nails. The company has shoes here made specially for [?loader] factories and men must wear these shoes before being allowed to work. The precautions here are about the same as in other [?loader] factories I have worked at. At this stage of the proceedings a specimen shoe, as used at the works, was produced. Continuing, witness said brass would not cause friction.
