but It Is believed to have been barrel
OF gasoline in one Of the three grocery
stores. With the explosion Of No. 1913
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 a 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 &C.
Cured. Women, children and men,
occupants of the wrecked houses,
could be seen crawling from the de-
bris, while the agonixing 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 1t settled to
the ground. and in less than Ave min
utes the great pile was burning aercely
from end to end. An alarm was turned
in for apparatus and amhulances, and
in the meantime the work of rescue
was voluntarily begun by those in the
neighborhood that were not injured.
Here and there 2 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 the exception
of small blazes here and there the fire
was extinguished in few minutes. :
While the firemen and policemen
we're 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.
From 40 to As persons are tonight

New York, Oct. 10.-London advices

The Bank of England rate remained
unchanged and their close was steady
for Americans.
For some days past the sentiment
here for causes which we have reported
upon from day to day has improved,
even If fresh or new commission bust
ness has not become much larger. The
short interest had become rather large
In certain lines, the sentiment as re-
CARDS money has undergone a change
from a fear of tightest to one of COM
parative ease, and encouraged the
holders of securities as we'll as some OPP
orators who held aloof until they could
see their way more clearly in that di-
rection. The high rates for exchange
now ruling enable renewals of loans
and while there are few export bills of
fering at the moment those well in
formed know full we'll that Europe
sooner or later must come in as buy
err of our raw products such as grain
and cotton
The London market for actual cop
per was higher and tended to stimulate
the home copper securities.
Railroad earnings are large; the home
traction stocks appeared In better re-
pute and all the industrials found good
support.
Call money easy and time money

The advance in coal had beneficent
influence on the coal properties. Taken
as a whole the stock market showed

Grain was not much changed. Eu-

can spare 1t.
Cotton daily becoming stronger In po-
sition, with higher prices In the future
more apparent. Exporters are heavy
buyers in the south. New York stock

The stock market during the closing
hour developed further strength and
the close was with good undertone at
best prices Of the day.
