BELLEVILLE, May 27.â€"Three men were blown to pieces yesterday morn- ing about 11 o’clock and three in- jured, two possibly fatally, when a premature blast took place about five miles east of this city. A gang of Dominion Construction employes were at work blasting in a cut on the Le- high Cement Co.’s farm in order to make excavation for the Canada Ce- ment Co.’s railway spur below the roadbed of the C.P.R., for grading is taking place in this district for open- ing of the Lake Shore line. The following are the dead: John H. McLean, foreman; A. Holland, powder helper; V. Amorelli, No. 41, powder helper. A hole about nine feet deep had been blasted out, and workmen had been blasting one hole after another. A man named John Grey had been charging the holes, and it is stated that he complained to the foreman, John H. McLean, that the charging was going on too rapidly.

A man named John Grey had been charging the holes, and it is stated that he complained to the foreman, John H. McLean, that the charging was going on too rapidly. He refused to continue, saying that one hole was what is called “hot hole,” meaning that friction of the drill had caused the rock to heat. The foreman is said to have replied: “If you don’t like our gait, then quit.” This, it is reported, Grey did, considering him- self discharged, and climbed out of the excavation. He had just got out of range when a terrific explosion occurred in the hole, and returning he found an aw- ful sight awaiting his gaze. Two masses of flesh had been blown clear of the cut to the east of the excavation, and the remains of another body were found on the west side. Lying near by were three wounded men.
