Lead Mine Found by a Doctor Looking
for Pieces of Bone.


NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-The latest sur
prise in surgical operations is the re-
moval of IL feet inches OF 1-16 wire
from a mans body. This operation was
performed at Bellevue by DR.. Rathbun.
The case is one of the most peculiar on
record. John Scanlan, machinist, has
worked several years for Kahn Bros,
proprietors of the East-river lead works.
Among other things manufactured
there is lead wire, used largely for wrap
ping purposes and by electricians. The
lead wire is made by forcing a mass of
metal through a die under hydraulic
pressure of 800 tons. The metal is hot,
but cools as it is forced through the die
in the shape of wire. Scanlan was at
his post in front of the die last Saturday.
The machinery suddenly stopped. The
man leaned forward and grasped the wire
already sent through, when there was a
loud report; the die, or portion of it,
was blown out and Scanlan was knocked
TO the floor. When he recovered from
his dazed condition he felt no pain ex-
cept in his left arm. He went to Belle
Vue hospital few hours later, where
the surgeon found small abrasion of
the skin near the wrist, which had the
indications of fracture at the elbow,
with displacement Monday it was de-
termined to remove the portions of shat
tered bone supposed to be there, and
DIR. Rathbun began the work. The
point of the surgeons knife had scarcely
gou below the cuticle when he stopped,
looking very much astonished. Then
he pulled out piece of lead wire. An
other followed, and still another, until.
out of the three-inch opening in the
flesh, over eleven feet of wire was
drawn. Yet there had not been the
slightest break in the skin or wound of
any kind except the little abrasion
already alluded to. The doctors
think that the explosion followed Scan
lan's taking hold of the end of the wire
and that the wire, driven with great
rapidity, by the explosion, caught on
his wrist and was shot into his arm as
by an immense hypodermic syringe.
Being soft and malleable, it struck the
humerus, probably, and doubled up and
down the forearm and was imbedded in
the muscles. Scanlan will leave the
hospital in few days with his arm as
SQUAD as ever.

Campbell, a passenger on the vessel,
was lost overheard. The Farallon
reached here Christmas night, but the
marine reporter of the Merchants Ex-
change did not hear that anything out
of the ordinary had happened. 1t was
not until sister of the deceased made
inquiries for her brother that the news
of his death was made public. Her
brother boarded, the steamer at Port

it. There were altogether five cars in
the train. The private car Cleopatra
was on the rear with Mrs. Emery and q
party for Pasadena, and escaped from
the fire. 1t is not known here just how
the fire sterted, but it may have been
from the gas in the Pintsch reservoirs,
with which the cars are equipped. The
speed must have been very rapid when
the engine struck the bridge, for the
train was behind time. A wrecking
train was sent out from Tucson, which is
not far west of Benson. New Pullman
cars were also ordered to the scene, and
the passengers will be transferred and
brought here, arriving probably tomor-
row morning.

Bridge Was Burned.

Los ANGELES, Dec. 29.-The Southern
Pacific's westbound Sunset limited, the
well known fast train between San Fran
cisco and New Orleans, was wrecked and
burned in Southeastern Arizona this
morning, but, according to advices re-
ceived through railroad headquarters,
none of the trainmen or passengers were
badly injured, though it is supposed
they must have received shaking up.
The wreck was caused by bridge or
trestle-work being burned enough to
weaken it, and the engine plunged
through it, carrying the train along.
How the passengers and trainmen could
have all escaped serious injury is a
miracle, though the fall from the bridge
could not have been many feet. The
disaster happened at an early hour this
morning, before daylight, and the scene
of the terrible plunge is new station,
named Ochoa, on newly-built part of
the track, about 15 miles east of Benson.
Two elegant sleepers were burned, and
at the time of the report the composite
car was burning, with no hope of saving

Two Firemen Izilieo.

New York, Dec. 29.-Battalion Fire
Chief John J. Breslie uand Fireman John
J. Rooney, of truck II, were killed today
by the falling Of floor during fire,
which gutted several stories of the gas
and electric fixtures factory CT the Cas-
sidy & Sons Manufacturing Company,
124 West tTwenty-fourth street. The fire
did $50, 900 damage. Assistant Foreman
William Hennessey, of engine Is, had
his leg broken, and three other firemen
were slightly injured. When the fire
was discovered it had made considerable
progress. The building is six stories IN
height, and extends from Twenty third
to Twenty-fourth streets, where it occu-
pies numbers 133 and 135. The ground
floor of the building extends through
without break, but above that there is
a wellhole, which leaves a space of %
feet between the two buildings directly
in the center of the block. When the
firemen responded the flames were BURST
ing the three upper floors. All the fire
was on the Twenty-fourth-st h-street side.
The flames must have started in the
fifth floor, where chandelier arms are
made. There is number of bufing ma
chimes on this floor, and it may have
been smoldering spark from one of
these that caused the outbreak.
Chief Breslieu was on the fourth floor
directing the movements of the men,
when suddenly heavy water tank on
the roof came tumbling down, carrying
with it the fifth floor. A mass of blazing
debris fell on the firemen, pinning Bres-
lieu and Rooney under the girders. The
other men reached the stairs in safety,
but the stairs fell as they were hurrying
down and the men fell in heap on the
third floor. Assistant Foreman HEM
essy's right leg was broken. Fireman
Amman was injured. Their companions
dragged them to place of safety. Then
heroic effort was made to rescue Breslieu
and Rooney. The flames were kept
from attacking the bottles of the unfor-
tunate men, but they could not be
reached by their comrades.
