SUCCESSION OF EXPLOSIONS
Fire spouts from the A1anholes Like Small
Volcanoes.

riIo Spouts from the NlanhOIeS Like Small
Volcanoes.
Many people living in the vicinity
believe that the first explosion was in
main ut Twenty-second street and
Archer avenue. The manhole cover
half block south was thrown into the
air. Flames leaped and reared from
the hole. The fire spread below the
street and smaller manholes were
blown into the air.. The flames from
the first gas main shot high into the
air and reached, with the aid of the
wind, the Trostel butcher shop. The
building was a three-story frame struc-
ture, and it had been weakened and
nearly wrecked by the shock.
1t is supposed that the occupants of
the building were knocked unconscious
or We're too panic-stricken to rush
from the place.
The flames caught the weather-worn
timbers. The dry and rotting wood
was food for the flames and in an in
slant the flames had enveloped the
structure. With roar the building
collapsed, and the occupants, with one
exception, We're carried with 1t to the
basement. The adjoining building, a
two-story structure, fared w, the next
Dtllidang was wrapped in flames, and
then another structure caught fire. 1t
seemed at first that the whole block
would be wiped out before the firemen
could bring the blaze under control,
On both sides of Archer avenue be-
tween Twenty-second and Twenty
tiiird streets every pane Of glass was
blown out. and a number of the resi-
dents in the damaged buildings suf.
fered slight injuries from flying glass.
On several street cars near the place
the windows We're smashed and the
passengers severely shaken up. When
PEOPLE In the cars saw the flames gush
from the ground all hands rushed for
the doors. A number Of persons were
bruised and knocked down in the ex-
cited exit One car filled with mas.
sengers was thrown from the tracks.
The cause Of the explosion is un.
known, and 1t has not vet been deter
mined whether 1t was sewer gas or H.
Illuminating gas.

The News of last week might proper.
~ be called special county printing
edition. 1t contained all that has been
published on the subject by the news
papers of the county, and the record is
quite lengthy. Taken as a whole 1t fairly
establishes the truth of all that we as
serted. Everyone, who had any con-
nection with the transaction, knows
that the Democratic account of what
took place before the Board of Super
visors was strictly true; and We have nc
feelings, except pity, for anyone who
feels called upon to state anything to
the contrary.
This much is certainly true: We In
Cured small financial obligation to
avoid contest with the publisher OF
the News, because we felt that such 9
contest could not be kept above the
level of brawl. That obligation will
be made good, and no matter what may
hereafter be said, we do not propose tc
use any more paper OF ink on this
subject.
