singular Exp,o.ion Of Gas.

IGNITED BY A SPARK FROM A woRKMAN's
PICK WHILE ExCAvATING-NARRow ESCAPE
OF THE LABoRER
Patrick Cosgrove and Martin Naughton. en-
pioyed by the Washington Gaslight company.
were digging this morning by the side OF a
sewer trap, at the corner of 9th and Boundary
streets, for leak in a gas pipe which had been
broken by the settling of the Boundary street
sewer, allowing the gas to escape into the
sewer. While Cosgrove was digging his pick
struck stone and caused spark to fly, which,
meeting tue gas in the sewer, caused an expio-
sion; The pick which Cosgrove held in his
mana was hurled up into tree, and the sewer
trap was blown some feet from its position,
tearing hole in the pavement. The top OF the
trap vas carried distance of one hundred
ieet across Boundary. street into LIE Droit park,
where 1t tore up the sodding. Cosgrove had
his face slightly burned and injured by the
SAND being blown against him. He, however,
went to work again and completed the job.
Naughton, who was shoveling at the time, was
not hurt.
The explosion made a noise equal to several
guns OF light battery discharged at once,
SCATTERING several windows in the neighbour
hood and doing much damage to the gas main
and sewers. The report was heard for half a
mile i'll all directions.
