the City Shaken
MENDOZA, nls., JAN 26.-At o'clock
p. Ill. the main building Of Henning's
brewery in this city was wrecked by a
boiler explosion, the conclusion being SO
great that every building in the city was
badly shaken. The building destroyed
was five stories and filed with ma
chinery. The force Of the explosion
completely demolished it, killing six
men and badly injuring seven others.
The killed are:
G. SElFERr. foreman.
DAVID WELLS, fireman.
DAVID CHEER, engineer.
IIEMUEL De SHAsO, iceman.
HENRY PERT, laborer.
JOHN KENNEDY, q we'll borer of Dekalb.
ADAM BREssHEAD.
Believed More Are In the Ruins.
-Four Chicago men who were injured
and Kennedy of Dekalb had but lately
come here and were engaged in sinking
a we'll near the building. Up to late
hour no more bodies had been found in
the debris and binding snow storm al
most stopped work; but it is thought
more men are buried under tons of
brick and beams. The loss Of property
amounts to 100000 and q large num-
BIER of men are thrown out of employ
ment.
The explosion had an upward ten
dency, lifting the building, and then
everything fell into a huge hearth in
the center of the Enclosure. All was ex-
element and
Many Were Driven Frantic
with the thought that husband, father
or son might be beneath the ruins.
Women, bareheaded and wild with fear,
braved the wind and cutting snow that
some tidings of the injured might be
learned. In the excitement number
of citizens received injuries in removing
beams and lumber. Never before has
this city suffered such blow, and many
are the conjectures as to the number Of
dead at the bottom of the great heap Of
brick and mortar and broken machinery.
The work Of removing the ruins is pro-
crossing slowly, and it will be day or
more before the list Of dead will be COM
plete.
