ExnlOslon Of a GasOmeter.

CINCINNATI May 24-At five min
utes past twelve, to-day our citizens
we're startled with a dull, rumbling
explosion, accompanied by the tremb-
ling of the earth, shaking of houses,
aud all the phenomena of an earth-
quake. The sound came from the
southwest part Of the city, and dense
volumes of smoke arose 10 that quar-
ter. Fire bells were rung and the
engines came out, but their services
were not needed. The gasometer of
the City Gas Works had exploded
with stunning report. The huge
iron holder, one hundred aud thirty
five feet In diameter aud forty two
feet in height, with capacity for half
a million cubic feet of gas, was torn
in pie ces and tumbled In a confused
mass 10 the eistern. What the cause
was. no one can tell. The explosion
commenced on the North side, next
to Front Street. ! 1g
Ten or twelve workmen, who had
been engaged in painting the holder,
had Just descended, and at the time
were standing by the engine house,
but miraculously escaped with their
lives, and without serious injury. One
man, Pat MckInsie, an employee OF
the gas company. was on the top OF
a column, on a level with and nearly
touching the top of the gasometer.
He was not blown off by the explos-
ion, although his clothes were all
burned off, and his entire body was
so crisped as to cause his death in
( three hours.
I Dick and Pat Sheridan were draw
! ing lumber carts near the seems, and
| they and their horses were severely
/ burned. The men will recover, but
the horses will probably die
A man named Charles Kelly, walk.

street, was badly injured.
