An Explosion Following u Lightning Stoke.
Last evening the Atlantic Touring mill,
corner of Main and Plum streets, St. Louis
Of which George Balm, esq.,, president
of the National Millers' association, is
president. and manager, was struck

every part and in half an hour the mill
and its entire contents were completely
destroyed. A number of men at work on
different floors were blown through
the doorways and windows, receiving
serious and perhaps fatal injuries.
The fire spread Immediately to the
Future City Oil Works, extending on
Plum street from Main to river front. The
works burned very fiercely. A ware
house containing rOsin and turpentine on
sa me block, was also in flames and the
Plum street depot of the Iron Mountain
railroad, ON the opposite side of the street,
in great danger.
About seventy men were employed in
the mill, all of whom, it is said, are &C.
counted for. Several of them were badly
burned, however, and have been sent to
the hospital, The loss on the mill is
s14O, 600 insurance, $4,000. The Future
City Oil Works were damaged about
$45, 900.
