A would-be Resouer Frustrated.
PROVIDENCE, Sept 5.-Five employees Of
the Providence Gas company went to their
death in the collar of the Westfold street
gas holder yesterday afternoon. asphyXia-
ton by gas being the cause The names
Of the dead are:
The dead men were named Riley Nc
Manus, Burns, McNamee and Cotton. The
first two were married, Riley leaving a
wife and nix children.
The accident was a peculiar one. For
Acveral days leaking gas has been detected
i'm the holder, and yesterday the company
sent six mon and foreman to repair the
leak. which proved to come from defec-
tive valvo connecting the four inch main
which supplies the Westhcld street holder
with gas from the main holder on Globe
street. The uen had Just returned from
dinner, and at I o'clock went down the
wooden stairs which led from the entrance
of the holder to the cellar below and began
TO work on the broken valve. They dis
connected it and tied a cloth bag about the
large main extending in from the street,
when the bag gave way and an immense
volume of gas rushed out. In less time
than it takes to tell it all were overcome
with the exception of one, who managed
TO grope up the tairs where the fresh air
enabled him to recover sufficiently to reach
the street.
Immediately after it became known that
the men We're there and unable to get out
willing hands attempted to go to the res
cue, but nothing could be done while the
escaping gas rushed up the stairs Fore
man Charles Allen did all he could, but
there was no cut off in the street and he
knew not what way to turn. The police
were quickly on the spot and roped off
Westfield street, and Medical Examiner
Palmer stood in the doorway to prevent
anybody from going down the stairs.
At the foot of the stairs lay one of the
men, who had almost reached the bottom
stair when he was overcome and sank back
with look of anguish on his cOuntenance.
Soon after o'clock the gas company sent
gang of men to dig up the street to get
at the main shut off further along, it being
understood that no other means of shutting
off the gas could be attained, and even
then it meant two hours work. Foreman
Allen took a hand in the excavation and
was overcome before the digging had pro-
ceeded far. He was taken to the Rhode
Island hospital in the ambulance. His life
is despaired of.

COLLAPSE OF A TOWER.
Hwo Killed and Several Injured at Illi-

Two Killed and Several Injured at Illi-
nois State Fair Grounds.
SPRINGFIELD, Ills, Sept. 5.-At the state
tair grounds the west tower on the great
machinery hall, which is now being rooted,
collapsed and fell in, burying several men
beneath its ruins. Charles Hobson, of
Lincoln, Neb., and James Parke, of this
CITY, both plumbers, who were at work l
the ground floor, were killed, being COW
cred with several tons Of brick and mortar.
The seriously injured are: Fred Berd, a
carpenter, badly crushed; n. Williamson,
a carpenter, both ankles broken; Samuel
Davenport, of Chicago boss carpenter,
badly injured about the back by falling
debris; John Gethard, carpenter, large
cash cut in his head, will probably recover;
Charles Brownell, water carrier, both
legs and both arms broken, badly burned
by mortar and fearfully lacerated, will
die.
Neither building nor tower was braced,
but whether this caused the accident
is not known. 1t is the general opinion
that the hard rain of Tuesday night
loosened the mortar, which had no time to
dry, work having been rushed on the
building in order to have it completed in
time for the fair, and this caused the acci-
dent. The loss will amount to several
thousands Of dollars.
