A terrific explosion, accompanied by a
blast OF flame, drew a crowd Of workmen
10 n wateT-tank situated in the southeastern
portion Of the car-works Of the Allison
Manufacturing Company. at Thirty-second
and Chestnut streets, at half-paSt 4 O'Clock
yesterday afternoon. For q minute the eX-
element was intense, a. three men were
known 10 be in the tank nj work. A vol
uine Of white smoke poured from the mar
row man-hole, through which the men had
entered the dark tank. and a blueisb flame
erept up the sides OF the cedar.lined tank.
From their place Of imprisonment the
voice Of one Of the men was heard crying
out In pain.
The workmen In the burning tank were
John McDermoti, Of 1926 Patton street;
Mccormack. Of 34ii Ludlow street, and
ID. u. Gun. Of 2l3s iIarmstcad street. They
we're all emTsoyed In the fiue mill. The
fret man 10 reach the opening was McDer-
mott. whose arms aud shoulders were Sc
verely burnt. Mccormack lay senseless on
ths bottom OF the tank. while Cun, craZed
by his terrible injuries. ran about the
burning box. beating his fists against IL.
sides and utiering frigh,fu, cries Of agony.
MeDermou wa helped out and cared for.
No one dared 10 enter the burning tank
until Richard Foy. q fellow-vorkman
Familiarity known ~ "Big Dick" secured a
moistened sponge aud, placing II IN bis
mouth, descended the ladder.
The seEseless form OF Mccormack was
drawn up by means Of rope. but the
greatest dtfncully was experienced In get
ting Cut 10 the top Of the narrow ladder.
He almost fought his reseuer. The three
men were Immediately taken TO the Uni.
versity Hospital. During the evening Me.
Dermou was allowed TO 40 TO his home.
His injuries although severe. are not con-
l sidered dangerous. ~ late hour last
night u was not expected that the other
men would survive their injuries. Their
hair and beard were all burned of. and
their bodies and limbs showed the terrible
eject OF the flames. Mccormack Is fifty
one years OF age aud has been In the
