FALSE ALABM or FIRE-FALLING OF WALL AT
The MANHATTAN GAS woRks-rwO MEN sERi-
ousLY INJURED.
Yesterday afternoon about u o'clock the City Hall
and other bells sounded alarm for the Third Dlsrc
in consequence of what appeared to be cloud oil
smoke on the west side of the city above Fourteenth
street. The fremen of the District were soon on the
alert and were not long in ascertainng that the alarm
was caused by the falling of over one hundred feet
of brick wall which formed the north side of the Man.
haitian gas works, located on Eighteenth street. be-
tween the Tenth arc Eleventh avenues.
Theiwall was about thirty feet in hight, and came
down with a crash that could be heard many blocks
distant. The houses in the immediate neghberhood
were shaken as if by earthquake The most In
tense excitement prevailed about the Works which
wac heightened by the shouting of fremen az they came
upon the ground, and the shriekiug and walhng OF
women who supposed that their husbands or other rea-
iiyes had been crushed beneath the falling wall Sew
era patoons Of police quickly on the ground and
drove back the crowd.
portion of the rubbish was quickly removed by the
fremen. and two men, named Thomas j. Muney and
Henry X. Fowler, were taken from the ruins. Null
neys left shoulder was badly bruised, and he was
otherwise injured internally. Fowler received an IN
jury of the spine. Messrs. johnson, Fbro and Housing
ceved slight Commissions about the head and body, from
fragments of the wall as it fell.
Very fortunately there were but few woikmep in that
portion of tho works. II seems that the ground on
which the wall stood had been settling for some tina
past and the recent rains caused 1t to sink still more
There were several large cracks throughout the wall,
and the falling of the structure had been anticipated
The hured men were taken to their homes and prop
ery cared for.
