"its: '. .-:.’.. A ' v (Entrpcts and Cil-Cloths',.N0. 9 Keenan’s B10 CARTER, THE cHEAp mugs Rum Paper and Picture lunar Explosion and Collapse. A PBABPCL CALAMITY IN NEW YORK CITY. New YORK. Aug. 2'3.-â€"At 12.30 o‘clock today an explosion occurred in the five-storey brick building extending from No. 68 to 74(inclusive) Park place, and in a moment a frightful rum- bling noise was heard and the whole front portion of the walls collapsed and tell outward in a pile on the street. It is believed about fifty lives wore lest under the debris or burned by the fierce fire that followed the explosion and collapse. About 50 people escaped from tho building with their lives. All the fire. companies in the lower portion of the city were summoned to the scene, the police reserves were called out and the wildest excitement prevailed in all parts of the city. Up to 530 o’clock this evening only six bodies had been dug out of the ruins. Only one person was taken out alive, and that was Mary Ilcagney, 9 years old, who was found under two feet of debris. near the edge of the sidewalk. She had been Sitting with her sister Anna. who was younger than herself, in a doorstep, and when the explosion occurred started to run. but was pinned under the falling mass of wreckage. Anna was duer out dead, as was live-year-old Johnny Gibbs, who had been with the little girls. The fire burned fiercely, but the firemen by he- roic labor not the flames under cmtrol within an hour and a half, and began the work of digging at the ruins for the bodies of the viczims. Ambulances were sum‘mued from several hospitals, and the dead wa-zgon came. from the morgue. The work of the searchers for bodies will be kept up all night an’d all day to- morrow. There . re all sorts of theories as to the cause of the disaster. Chief R silly, of the fire department, was of the opiu-, ion that a boiler supplied by the pipes of the steam heating company had ex plodcd, but the officers of the company denied that their supply pipes connected with any pipes leading into the wrecked building. Another theory was that the .b)iler in the restaurant had exploded. "I‘hen it was said that some chemicals. had exploded in the drug store. The most plausible theory of all, however, is that the wreck was caused by the shaky condition of the building and the vibra. tion of the. heavy presses running in the lithographing and printing establish: ment of the upper floors. It is general- ly admitted that there was an explosion ofsome kind, but. the collapse is account- ed for in no other way than the one mentioned. There was practically no mortar between the bricks, and when they were looked at after the smoke and .fire had subsided they were as bare as 'a ‘board. ~.-o Disastrous Storms.
