ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY DEAD AND $50
WOUNDED is THE LATEST ESTIMATE
HEAPS OF CHARRED FRAG-
MENTS OF BODIES
FOUND.

Antwerp, Sept THE fire is still raging, all
efforts of the firemen, assisted by the military
and populace to quell it having so far proved
unavailing. The docks and shipping are un-
touched by the flames, as the direction OF the
wind has been toward the town continuously.
1t is estimated that the number of deaths
by yesterdays disaster will not exceed 100
Two hundred and fifty persons were seriously
and 300 slightly injured The firemen and troops
worked through the entire night on hourly shifts
Many of them succumbed to the heat and smoke,
and had to be conveyed TO hospitals insensible
ON stretchers All the workers have backened
faces and bear evidences of the sickening effects
of the dense smoke which clogged their efforts
Work is now entirely confined to keeping the
fire from spreading beyond the sheds and factories
within the drydock.
Six million litres of petroleum are in flames
The oil, it is expected, will continue to burn
at least until Monday.
At the moment of the explosion many of the
workmen jumped into the Scheldt in their fright
and were drowned. number Of sailors and
customs officers were killed board ships by
the flying bullets, and ships were riddled by the
missiles. 1t is estimated that 1000 tons of
cartridges exploded. The noise was heard thirty
miles away. The smoke. which filed the air
was greater in volume than that of great battle
Human heads and other parts of bodies were
found half mile away from the scene of the
disaster One hundred and thirty whole bodies
lie in the morgues and clarred heaps of human
fragments represent an unknown number OF dead
The first officer of the Red Star steamer Zealand
was terribly wounded on board his ship.
The populace watched the flames all night. The
noise of the exploding barrels of oil and the fall
ing of ruins exactly resembled the sounds of a
battle. Those who have been deprived of their
homes by the fire encamped upon the river
banks.
The water works, which cost $4,000 pounds are
three parts destroyed.
A judicial inquiry has been ordered into the
origin of the explosion.
The Minister Of the Interior has visited the scene
of the explosion The King and Queen have trle-
graphed, expressing sympathy with the sufferers.
Subscriptions have been opened for the relief Of
those rendered destitute by the disaster.

Rutherford Place, near St. Georges Church. There
are two manholes there one near Third-ave., ana
the other about 90 feet east of the first
After working in the forenoon the men took an
hour for dinner, and resumed work at l p. m.
DAILY and Annis went down into the manhole near
Third ave-, and Annis carried lighted candle
in his hand Brennan and McCann went down
the ladder to the bottom of the other manhole at
the same time. They had not been at work many
seconds when the explosion occurred. Columns OIL
flame shot up from each manhOle
James Gaffney, an inspector of sewers, was near
one of the manholes at the time. He was scared
so badly that he did not know what to do, and ne
ran about shouting for help. The fire from the
sewer continued to make a show for several sec
onds. As crowd was gathering Annis suddenly
appeared He climbed up the ladder from the
manhOle as if from blazing furnace and fell fIlnt-
ing on the pavement His clothes were burning
and the men in the street made haste to tear them
from his body. His hair had been burned from
his head, and his face and hands had been scorched
so badly that the skin was peeling off in patches
As Annis WAS being carried into st. George S
Hall close by, some men in the street threw
rope to DAILY who still at the bottom oil the
manhoe. DAILY caught hold Of the rope and
was dragged out. He was burned about as badly
as Annis was and the men carried him into ST.
Georges Hall after putting out the fire IN his
clothing.
Brennan and McCann soon climbed out, of the
other manhole They had been knocked down
by the explosion, but had escaped with slight
burns on their hands and faces. An alarm had
called the fremen, but the gas in the sewer had
ceased TO burn. Tie fremen, however, sum-
moned an ambulance by telegraph, and poured
oil on Anais and Daily before the ambulance ar
rived Annis and DAILY were removed to the
New-l Ork Hospital, and the surgeons there said
that the men probably would recover. Brennan
and McCann went to their homes.
G. H. Babcock, Inspectar of Repairs to Sewers
said that gas from the Standard Gasli2ht Com
pany's main in Rutherford Place probably had
leaked into the sewer. An odOr of escaping gas
had been noticed there for days.
