Ing debris. Every exposed portion of
my skin is scratched and bruised. Miss
Lee has severe cut on her left arm
and is bruised about the shoulders.
Waitress Was Killed e
"The waitress who was bringing us
our dinner at the moment of the eX-
plosion is among the dead.
Il saw one woman who had escaped
In safety turn back to assist a friend.
AS she did so a falling timber struck
her on the head and believe killed her.
Il am inclined to think that almost
all injuries were sustained from falling
timbers after the explosion.
When we got out of the building We
went at once to the Orpheum. We were
covered with dust and mortar Many
persons tried to stop us for details, but
had visions of coroner's inquest and
would not talk"
Miss Lee repeated many of the details
given by Mr.. Kelley.
There was blood everywhere-it was
worse than a battle could be, for every
one was wounded" says the woman.
1t makes me shudder to recall the
dreadful sigts and sounds.
"Of course II was all over i'm two
minutes, but 1t seemed hours before we
got out into the street away from that
awful pail Of dust, which only lifted to
show us some new horror
What did l think? Well, ii is droll
now to recall, but 1t was a serious
thought then. When l found myself

bish. and as 1 thought. in the base

on her limbs and body, and was slightly
cut on her face and arms
Mr.. Kelley says:
II had just taken a second spoonful
of soup when the shock came. The
soup flew up into my face and the bowl
struck me on the forehead. Then the
floor table and l rose all together and
hit the ceiling.
when came down thought must
certainly be in the basement The trip
up was instantaneous, but 1t seemed to
me, that must have fallen at least two
stories.
Found Woman Under Debris
II fell clear of all the debris and at
once looked around for Miss Lee.
could not see her. Then she put out
her hand from under heap of tables,
chairs and debris and called for me to
help her. There was nothing heavy
above her and had no difficulty in re-
leasing her.
when we felt the shock my thoughts
went back to our experience In San
Francisco two weeks ago when we felt
a distinct shock of earthquake. Then
the sound of the explosion told me that
this was not an earthquake.
Following the sound of the explosion
there was period Of absolute stiffness,
or 50 1t seemed, then came the crash of
timbers followed by the means and
shrieks of the injured.
"A timber struck me in the back as
stopped to release Miss Lee. AS
lifted her another fell between us, cut
ting a button Off my coat.
"rhe air was full of all kinds of fly

when they dig me out of here, and here
L am 1000 miles from home'"
Both Mr.. Kelley and Miss Lee We're
anxious to avoid the Inconvenience Of
attending an inquest, and their adven-
ture was unknown to any one except
the Orpheum attaches until last night
When they were interviewed by a Herald
reporter.
Others May Die
The aftermath of the explosion at
local hospitals yesterday brought but
one addition to the death roll, but it
is stlll feared that several more names
may be added before the end of the
week. May Anderson, 2161a East Fifth
street, is the most dangerously in
Jured. An operation was necessary
to save her life at the Pacific hospital
yesterday anC 1t is thought that it
will be necessary to amputate one of
her limbs today. Ferdinand Stevens
janitor living at 110 West Second
street, died at noon at the county hos
pital.
Harvey A Holderman, meter man
in the employ of the Los Angeles Gas
company, was not expected TO re-
cover yesterday morning, but later in
the day his condition improved and
late last night ii was given out at the
Clara Barton hospital, where he was
taken, that he probably will recover
His right leg vas amputated in the
morning, and he was not expected to
survive the weakness which followed
the operation.
Charles Blumenthal, another employe
of the gas company also is among the

ployed in gathering every bit of testi-
mony which can have any bearing on

painfully injured. He was investigat-
ing the leak at the time of the explosion
and received the full force of the blast.
He was dangerously injured internally
and his right leg was broken and lac
Grated.
Amputation Postponed
An operation may be performed on
Miss Emma HaGccty of Hollywood,
who was taken to the emergency hos
pital with both legs broken below the
knee. Preparations were made for am
putation yesterday. but it was feared
she would be unable to live through
the operation. Miss agerty's father,
C. c. Hagerty, also was severely cut
and bruised and is at the Good Sa-
maritan hospital His less were
crushed and an operation also may be
necessary in his case.
Henry Warren, 794 East Fifteenth
street, While not thought to have been
dangerously injured, showed symp-
toms of Internal injuries late in the
evening, which left him in a serious
condition. He had several hemor-
rhages and it is thought that His lungs
are injured.
At the California hospital an oper-
alton was performed on E. S. Williams,
a miner, whose legs and body We're
frightfully lacerated and burned. His
