Serious Accident.

SEVERAL MEN BURHED-Tw0 OF THEM SERIOUSLY
On Saturday afternoon, about quarter of four
O'Clock, quite serious accident occurred at E. G..
Stotssnburg l. Sons foundry, corner Of Front and
Washington streets. Some Of the workmen At
the time were engaged in making small casting
and were pouring the molten iron into the mould.
The tasks, however, were improperly secured, and
when the mould was about half filed the molten
iron suddenly burst out from between them. and
scattered around in every direction. Quite NUM-
ber of men were standing around the mould, about
dosen of whom received severe and painful
burns, while two Of them. the foremen, Gilbert
Bayne, and . lAborer named VIM. Newell, were
quite seriously burned. Bayne was burned on
the back of the neck aud the shoulders, and
it will probably be some time ere he is able to
resume work. Newell was injured more
seriously than the rest, the iron striking him
upon the neck, breast and legs, and burning
him in terrible manner. He was conveyed
to hrs home, No. sos Franklin street, and
medical assistance instantly summoned. This
morning, his condition was somewhat i'm
proved. The other men were burned on var.
ious parts of their person, but their injuries
are not of q serious nature.
The men were standing around and very
near the mould at the time OF the accident
and It is really wonderful that more of then
were not seriously, or some even fatally in
iured.
