Eleven Men Seriously Injured ut Braddock.
PrrrsBuRa, Pa, April IA Braddock, Pa,
special says: Eleven men we're seriously injured
by an explosion in a row Of frame tenements
on the corner Of Washington street at O'Clock
this morning. Their names are John
Csjovozi, Frank Fecser, Jos. Resko,
John Mezi. John Pirhacs, Steve Novosk, John
Sekerak, Mike Hamisoviski and Martin
Czelinli. The names of the two others are not
known. They are all married men and Hun
garians, who boarded in the row.
The boarding houses were kept by Joseph
Chisick and Joe Herodoe. There were no gas
attachments in the house, but pipes still there
are supposed to have been leaking. One man
got up at 8 o'clock in Herodoe's boarding house
to light lamp. He struck O match
and simultaneously there was quivering of the
building, followed by loud report, and a mo-
ment later the exterior of the building was en-
veloped in flames. All the men were terribly
burned and Pirhacs, Novosk, Sekerak and
Czelinli will die, while the rest have bare
living chance.
The situation is horrible about their quarters
They were all burned about the hands and face
and some were literally roasted on the body.
Drs. Schooley, Carothers and Stewart rendered
medical aid. Everything is being done to send
the men to the hospital this afternoon, the
Philadelphia Natural Gas Company assuming
all responsibility.

Special Cable Dispatch to The Evening Star.
LIVERPOOL. April THE details of the re-
ported drowning Of a steerage passenger
named Gibson on the Cunard steamer Aurania
which reached here from New York yesterday
are given to the public through the published
statement Of passenger whose name is with
held. This has caused an immediate inquiry to
be ordered by the board of trade, which will
take place Immediately.
His statement says: "On Friday morning
about S:45. when the Aurania was in latitude
so north, longitude 80 degrees and minutes
west, L and some other second-cabin pas
sengers were walking the deck. MY companion
was Mr.. L. Jones, the mate of the ship Mohawk,
whose captain and crew were being brought
home in the Aurania. The sea was rising at
the time, but was not running heavy, when a
wave suddenly washed the deck, throwing
Jones down. The same wave caught Glib
son, who was standing near. When the
latter found himself going he clutched
at the rail, but missing it was carried
overheard. The passengers who saw
what had happened at once shouted for help.
Gibson, who swimming stoutly, cried,
Throw me life buoy, I'm all right Three
passengers, one after the other, threw him life
Dnoys' which Gibson failed to catch, but kept
on swimming.
Meantime there was not one of the crew of
the Aurania near the spot. ran to the engine
house and shouted that there was a man over
board, but they took no notice. L then ran
back to the higher deck looking seward
and could still see Gibson swimming to-
ward the vessel All the other pas
sengers. including the captain Of the Mohawk,
who was standing beside me, said that they
also could see him coming manfully toward us
and swimming chest high. BY this time some
of the sailors and officers of the Aurania had
come up and efforts were made to launch the
smallest boat, which was covered with canvas.
Instead, however, of ripping the cloth
with their knives the sailors began to
unite the fastenings, that several
minutes elapsed before the boat was ready.
The captain of the Mohawk then wanted
them to turn the ship astern, but instead one
OF the officers sent a sailor aloft and shouted:
Can you see anything The man replied,
No. In consequence the Aurania was not
stopped In my opinion Gibson might easily
have been saved
The publication of the above statement has
caused intense excitement here and the press
calls loudly for an investigation, but refrains
from comment until the facts are established

MORE COOKERS GO TO WORK.
Norwood Presented q Lively Appearance
Today.

Norwood Presented Lively Appearance
Today.
MOUNT PLEASANT, Pa, April 7.-Morewood
presented lively appearance today. Fifty new
men went to work this morning, making the
total number at the ovens about one hundred.
There was not the timidity among the workers
that there has been heretofore. The soldiers
are still on guard, but no attempt was
made to modest the men who want to work,
even when they are out of the reach of the
soldiers. The arrests of yesterday we're fol-
lowed by several more today and it is expected
that by this evening at least thirty-fve of the
rioters will be behind bars. Sheriff Clawson
evidently fears trouble where there are no SOL
diers, he has stationed deputies at the differ
ent works.
SOMETHING ON FOOT.
Something important is believed to be on
foot today, but the nature Of it is not known.
Master Workman Kerfoot, who speaks different
languages, is hard at work this morning. He
went down to Spring Garden and called on
every striker personally. The Huns are keep
ing exceedingly quiet, as they fear they will be
arrested.
A good deal of i'll feeling has been engendered
against Supt Ramsey over the report that
Frlck was going to import men. Threats were
made against Mr.. Ramsey and this morning a
number OF strikers gathered without his resi-
dence. Their actions aroused suspicion and
the militia was called out and the men driven
away. Several shots were fred, but no one
was hurt.
CONSULTING ABOUT TROOPS.
Adjt. Gen. McClelland and Gen. Wiley had a
consultation this morning as to how long the
troops should remain here. Gen. Wiley seems
to be under the impression that the ill feeling
has about died out and it is thought the militia
will be withdrawn in few days. The report
that the strikers were threatening to use dyna-
mite on the soldiers does not seem to have any
foundation in fact.
Dispatches from the various sections Of the
region indicate a partial resumption at the
different works. The operators are encouraged
and claim they will soon have their plants in
full operation.
