es to take Gilmore's Band to Paris in
1878 as representative American inst =

at the idea, and says that the country
has done nothing to deserve such fearful
retribution at the hands Of Mr.. Stra-
kosch. "It is not that it is not repre-.
sentative band, but because it would
give the musical public of Europe SO
false an idea of our musical culture. We

NEWS FROM THE METROPOLIS
Gas Explosion.
National Associated Press to the Star.

National Associated Press to the Star.
NEW YORK, Dec. GA singular and
frightful gas explosion occurred at g. 10
yesterday afternoon in the basement OF
the American Exchange Bank, No. 13e
Broadway, corner of Cedar street. 1t
appears that the basement was full of
gas that had been escaping tor some
time, and when the night watchman of
the building edward Condon) went
into the room an explosion occurred d
with terrible report. Condor was Sc
riously hurt, and was conveyed TO the
Chamber, street Hospital.
There were not many people on the
street at the time of the explosion, but
those who were in the locality were
greatly frightened. The report was ter
riDly loud, and was first thought to have
been caused by great boiler explosion,
and an alarm OF fire was quickly sound
ed. The engines were speedily on the
ground, but their services were slight,
as but little damage was done by the
fire. One OF the engines, however,
poured considerable water into the base
ment 10 prevent any burning of the prop
e ty. There was excitement in the
neighborhood OF the explosion an hour
or more alter the detonati0n. Great
crowds gathered to see what damage
had been done. A force of men has
been put to work to clear away the de-
bris, and to got the basement in good Or
der as soon as possible before the time
for business commences tomorrow.
1t appears that the damage is more
than was at first reported. 1t is esti-
mated now that the loss will be upwards
OF 100000. The force of the explosion
shook the adjoining buildings, and broke
nearly all their door and window glass;
also the glass on the Cedar street side
OF the Equitable building, opposite the
American Exchange Bank. Much OF the
glass destroyed. was OF the finest descrip-
ton Of large plate.
A plumber who had been repairing the
gasometer N the basement of the Amer
ican Exchange Bank, left the pipes inse-
cure. and the light going out about 6. z.
NJ. Condor, the night watchman, went
down with u light to see what was the
matter. The explosion occurred the
moment he opened the door. The ceiling
broke down; the other damage done is
noted above.
