BRADDoCK, Pa, Sept. 27.-Seven men
were horribly burned by molten metal
at the Edgar Thomson Steel Works, last
night. Furnace &c" was not working

BILE. 1t was discovered that hard
the furnace. An orifce, fifteen inches
in diameter, was made through the
side of the furnace STACK, which is
eighty feet high and twenty in dame
ter. Through this hole a heavy iron
bar was used to break the cinder crust.
In an ms ant the crust gave way and q
perfect river of molten iron and cinder
gushed through the aperture, literally
covering Capt. Jones and his workmen
in "a sea of flames ard hurting them in
all directions. Capt. Jones was picked
up fully forty feet from the stack. The
others were lifted about the same dis
lance in other directions.
The names of the in iured are: Capt.
Jones, general manager, horribly burn
ed. Michael Quinn, aged %, SO badly
burned that his flesh peeled OFT with
bis clothes. John Mokale, badly burn
ed about the body. but not fatally. Capt.
Ned Quinn, burned about the arms and

CLANS. and may not recover.
Capt. Jones is well-known throughout

ceives q salary OF S25 900 per year, and a
percentage On the product of the large
mill.
The injured men, with probably two
exceptions, are out Of danger. Capt.
William r. Jsnes is suffering a great
deal from his wounds, but will recover.
The tleshless body of Michael King, the
missing Hungarian. was found about mid
night embedded in the bot steel. It is
stated that the lives of all the men about
the furnace were saved by an unknown
hero. who, with wonderful presence of
mind. turned the valve and shut off
the blast as soon as the break occurred.

newly-made wife is a cloak maker, and
his name is Aaronson. Thinking some
time ago that his daughter Rose should
get married, he paid 500 to "chad-
chin" got young Kirchnerof to fill the
bill. and, it is said. gave him half of the
money. The couple were made ac-
quainted, but soon the bridegroom that
was-to-be manifested GOODNESS to-
wards his fancee. He made up his
mind to leave the city, and tried
to carry out the design on Satur-
day last. He went down Grand
Street toward the ferry, but was fol-
lowed by Aaronson and the "chadchin,"
who captured him on a williamsburg
ferryboat and brought him back. He
was taken to house on Chrystie Street,
and kept there under guard o; six
men. AT night he was compelled to
walk to the Golden Star Hall, don suit
of wedding clothes and go through his
part of the ceremony. Rabbi David
Falk officiated. It is not yet known
