FOUR MEN KILLED.
THREE OTHERS THOUGHT TO BE
FATALLY INJURED.
EXPLOSION ON A STEAMER.


BRIDGEPORT. CONN, July 23.-At $50
o'clock this evening an explosion oc-
CURED on the steamer Nutmeg State,
Of the bridgeport Steamboat Company 5
Line while she was lying at her slip.
at the foot OF South street, and as a
result four men are dead. three others
are thought 10 be fatally injured, and a
number more are in a serious condition.
The steamer was damaged about $1,000.
The dead are:
PATRICK MORAN; head shattered;
killed instantly.
JERRY CONNORs; leg torn off; inter
nal injuries; died while being taken to
a hospital.
JERRY OCONNELL; both legs shat
tered; internal INJURIES died at hospital.
UNKNOWN MAN. found dead in the
hold
The injured are as follows:
MICHAEL REARDON; burned about
the face and neck; internal injuries; not
expected 10 live.
PATRICK GLENNAN. deck-hand;
thought to be fatally burned.
MICHAEL MAGUIRE; probably fatal
ly burned about the face and chest.
EDWARD LYNCH; burned about the
face and head.
JOHN HARTWELL; seriously burned
on chest and arms and limbs.
JOHN CONNOLLY; burned about the
face and chest.
The men are all connected with the
boat.
Immediately after the explosion an
alarm Of fire was sounded, but the
flames were quickly extinguished, and
the firemen had little 10 do but assist
and care for the injured.
IGNITION OF NAPHTHA.
The explosion was probably caused by
the igniting Of naphtha under the boller.
When the boat returned from her trip 10

of this city. according 10 custom, "tHt

sprinkled the beds and mattresses with
naDhtha vapor and left. The steyedores
were eating on the supper deck, Just
over the hold, when the explosion tooh
ulace and the men were thrown IN ~
directions against the WOODWORK Two
OF the men were thrown overheard. anu
were rescued uninjured. while none OF
the others escaped unharmcd Ihe ueCh
under the suppertable was blown open
for 10 feet. while both sides Of the boaI
forward of the gangway were torn INTO
splinters. and thrown i'm all directions.
4 huge mass OF fragments was scat
tered all over the lower deck, ana as Iar
back as the engine-room all the cdIpcHc
ter work was wrecked. The interior or
the dining-room of the forecastle was
completely wrecked also. An examination
showed the hull TO be uninjured.
The officials are reticent as TO the IL
rect cause of the explosion. 1t was at
first alleged that lightning had struck
the boat but it was later ascertained
that a deckhand went into the hold 10
light his pipe. and it Is believed tne
lighted match I'm the closed forecastle
caused the naphtha vapor TO explode. The
injured men were all taken 10 the general
hospital. while the remains Of the dead
were removed TO the morgue. Coroner
Doten will hold an investigation to-mor-
