Philadelphia, Aug. GA terrific ex-

Locust street near Tenth wrecked five
of the structures and caused the death
of from 10 to 20 or more persons Over
two score of others were more or less
seriously injured. Some of those TAX
en- to the hospital will die 1t is esti-
mated that at least 95 persons were in
the five buildings when the explosion
occurred and the exact number of dead
will probably not be known for "a
hours.
The explosion occurred about $50
o'clock. What exploded and how it
happened is not known at this time,
but it is believed to have been a barrel
of gasoline in one of the three grocery
stores. With the explosion of No. 1918
the front walls of the building were
blown outward into the street, while
the floors and the roofs were blown
upward and fell straight to the ground.
Almost every building in radius of
two blocks about the scene of the eX
plosion had window panes shattered
and otherwise damaged. Every build
ing on the opposite side of Locust
street was more or less wrecked, but
none of them fell.
A terrible cry went up from the
ruins the moment the explosion oc-
Cured. Women, children and men,
occupants of the wrecked houses,
could be seen crawling from the de-
bris, while the agonizing cries of 9th
ers were heard in the wreckage. From
all the surrounding buildings injured
people came running and fell into the
street unconscious
To add to the horror, fire broke out
in the debris the moment it settled to
the ground and in less than five min
utes the great pile was burning fercely
from end to end. An alarm was turned
in for apparatus and ambulances, and
in the meantime the work of rescue
was voluntarily begun by those in the
neighborhood that were not injured.
Here and there a person was dragged
from the ruins before the fire could
reach the victim, several lives being
saved by this prompt work.
When the firemen reached the scene
| the flames had made great Roadway
! and were igniting buildings across the
! street. The fire. however, was soon
/ under control, and with tine exception
of small blazes here and there the fire
was extinguished in q few minutes.
While the firemen and policemen
were digging in the debris and hauling
away heavy timbers in several sections
of the wreckage, cries were heard COM
ing from the cellar of Mountains groc-
cry store. Fifty men with block and
tackle were Immediately put to work
at that point and pulled away the roof
ing and flooring, which had fallen into
a massed heap. From the bottom of the
pile doubled up, were taken a man and
a woman. The man was able to speak
but the woman was apparently dead
