Last night about midnight $50 or 800 minors
from neighborlng mines went to the place
where the convicts wore camped and informed
the guards that the convcts must be taken

the convicts were accordingly marched from
Driceville to Coal Creek on tho Knoxville and
Ohio road. where they were put on car and
brought to Knoxville and placed in jail for
safe keeping.
In the mean time the officers OF the Tennes-
sec company have called on the State for pro-

Exploding Gas Drives Up Tank Top 200
Feet and Raises . Drowned Body.
ROCHESTER,. July 15-The explosion Of tho
Municipal Gas Company's gasometer at IL
o'clock last night shook tho whole city. To-
day the body Of WAtchman Michael Stapleton
was found under a mass Of debris at the bot
tom Of the vat. No other bodies have been re-
covered although It is thought that several
will eventually be found IN the canal. The
victim whose body was recovered soon after
the explosion was identified az Philip Peter
son, Captain Of canal boat He was sitting
on the edge OF his boat. Just ready to start.
when the explosion occurred. Tho top OF the
tank. Weighing more than i've tons. was car
ried up 200 feet, aud 1t struck Peierson's boat.
which was 500 feet away
1t Ia almost certain that Stapleton took his
lantern and climbed in the top Of tho tank to
learn how much water was In It. The ground
and tank were thoroughly saturated with oil,
and tho heat OF the day before, added to the
filling process. resulted in the generation OF
considerable quantities Of gas. The lantern
came in contact with nut. and tho explosion
followed.
peculiar result of the explosion was tho
raising OF the body Of an unknown man
drowned in the canal. The point at which the
body came to the surface was half mile from
the sXploaion.
