GAS MAIN HORROR.
Six Persons Killed in an Explosion
in Boston.
Many Others Are Injured, Some Of
Whom Will Die-Spark from q
Trolley Car lgnited the
Fluid.

Boston, March 5.-An explosion OF
gas which leaked from the two great
six-inch mains which cross the subway
at the corner of fremont aud Boylston
streets, killed six, injured two proba-
bly, fatally. and nearly so other persons
at 11:45 o'clock Thursday. A boom
like that of cannon was followed by
smoke which seemed to rise from the
very bowels of the earth and then flames
shot upward and blazed in the midst of
the thoroughfares where there is more
travel than anywhere else in a given
section of the city.
Horses lay dead Cd the pavements;
panic-stricken passengers were endeav-
cring to escape with their lives from the
interior of burning cars, and the steam
fire engines were on the scene pouring
tons of water upon the rapidly disap-
pearing cars. The glass in the build
ings were shattered along fremont
street as far as Lagrange street, and
north beyond the fremont theater to
Washington street, and west almost to
Park square.
The list of dead and injured. as far
as ascertained, follows:

Cause of the Explosion.
Not only were all the window fronts
broken in the neighborhood, but from
a jewelers. window, precious stones,
said to be worth $4,000, were scat
tered about the street. The founda-
tons of the Hotel Pelham are said to
have been shaken badly, while every
window display in the neighborhood
was injured more or less. 1t is utterly
impossible to estimate the loss in that
direction. The immediate cause of the
explosion is of course uncertain, but
the most generally-accepted theory is
that it was started by spark from the
electric motor of the Mount Auburn
car igniting the gas which escaped
from the old main that runs along the
| south side of Bovlston street.

quoted as saying that the Greek troops

there to stay, he declared, and, in addi.

of Greece would compel the government

The greatest activity is being dis
played in Athens in making prepara-

they cross the Greek frontier. The min

being dispatched in every direction
with orders to different commanders.
The telegraph wires are constantly busy
with dispatches to officers in distant
