gushed flames as high as the house tops
like a miuiture volcano. Explosions
followed in quick succession and the

For two hours the pillar of flame
shot skyward and presented a weird

First the worlSmen attempted TO close
the leak by desperately shoveing mud
into the trench and piling timbers on
top. but another explosion scattered
mud and planks right and left.
The gas followed the conduits Of the
Delaware and Atlantic Telephone Com
pany to another trench where IL caught
fire. At Sixth and Jackson streets.
where gas had accumulated in a man
hole, an explosion occurred Of such
force as TO hurl the heavy iron cover
ing as high as the wires overhead.

Guilty succeeded in stopping the flow OF
gas. A hole was ohiseled into the main
near the break and through this open
ling a large rubber bag was forced.
The bag was then pumped full OF air
land as IL inflated pressed tightly
against the pipe and checked the flow
of gas.
The heat was so intense that teie-
phone conduits were melted and under
