Careless Handling of Dynamite.

NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-About one o'clock this afternoon terrific explosion occurred in Seventy third street between Second and were employed blasting rocks for an excava- tion. The work was under the supervision of Patrick Farley, contractor, and it is charged that the explosion was caused by the carelessness of the foreman, Michael Mon ahan, who took dry charge of dynamite and placed one of the cartridges on tine steam pipe which connects with the boiler. George H. Bennett, a son of the engineer in charge, saw the pipes smoking. He immediately called to the workmen to run for their lives and save themselves An explosion followed ately all the men had got some distance away and escaped without serious injury. On the opposite side of the avenue about sixty men were employed, none of whom beyond receiving serious shocks were injured Several small wooden struc- lures near the place were blown down, and about sixty houses in the immediate vicinity were slightly damaged. Windows were shat tered for three blocks away, and in some of the houses near the scene of the explosion locks were torn off the doors. A large hole was torn in the boiler, and hole two feet deep was blown in the ground near the boiler. It is supposed seven of the cart ridges, each weighing pound, were used. Among the persons reported injured are Mrs. Margaret Tonri and Mrs. McGorliek. Both received severe shocks. Nellie, aged two and half years, daughter of Mrs. McGorlick, was severely cut in the hand from broken glass Mrs. Schwambur was also cut on the hand. George Bennett, engineer, an1 his son received slight injuries, and Pat rick Mckenzie was thrown down by the con- cussion and slightly injured. The loss is es- timated at S3, GOO. Patrick Monahan was arrested and remanded without bail until to- morrow.
