TERRIFIC BOILER EXPLOSION NEAR BRADFORD.
—Yesterday morning, a boiler of 40-horse power exploded
with a loud report at the Bowling Dyeworks, scattering
devastation around. The boiler was one of three, con-
structed upon the Cornish principle, and plaoed side by
side, at one end of the works and close to the pattern
dyehouse. The boilers were used for the purpose
plying steam to the vessels in this part of thedyeh

William Rouse, an old man, and a
Brooke, were very severely scalded and otherwise injured
by the overflowing of boiling water and the shower of
stones and bricks. Rouse is in a precarious condition. No
estimate can be made of the damage done. The cause of
the explosion is not known. The boiler plates, where torn,
are exceedingly thin, and this circumstance is supposed to
have been the cause. There was ample water in the boiler,
and the safety valve and other apparatus were in perfect
working condition,
