10 burn through the coal, the upper por-
tion OF the coal box filed with gas, which
had not an opportunity TO escape through
the dampers. while the heavy atmosphere

against the vapors being carried away by

and flames was Immediately followed by
an explosion, such as is often illustrted

smaller scale. when "a puff OF the coal
gas as 10 comes in contact with the flames
often bursts open the door and sends a
shower OF ashes all over the Immediate

To substantlate this theory of the ex-
plosion the fact Is cited that the windows
of the structure were blown outward, not
inward. "It Is a popularity" he said.
that a steam explosion draws the window
glass inward, possibly from some vacuum
which IL renders existent. whereas tha
expansion of gas, as in an explosion, has
the opposite effect"
SMELL OF COAL GAS.
Rev. G. A Stenhouse. the president re-
marked that his daughter. preceptress OF
the Eastman dormitory. had noticed am
odor OF coal gas during the evening which
seemed to permeate practically the entire
structure. This Mr.. Turner believes was
corrOborative OF his theory
| lie also said that had the explosion
been caused by steam. the condition OF
affairs in the boiler would undoubtedly
have made itself apparent through tho
| radiators in the various rooms OF the
| building. by leakages of hot water. Mr..
/ Turner said that the safety valves on the
/ boiler were set so as 90 allow of tho
/ reduction OF pressure OF l5 pounds. aud
1 he was certain that when the wreckago
/ was cleared away from the boiler the
| valves would be found In good condition.
He believed also that the shell of the
/ boiler would be found TO be intact, and
also that the north boiler, which IL is
/ now certain was not burst on Tuesday,
| will be in such condition that IL will be
| available for use within "A very short
| time.
| The boilers were secondhand when they
were placed in the dormitory. Formerly.
/ he said, they mad been used at the East
side home OF John j. Banigan on Angel
| street this city. The inspector of boilers
/ in this city. Mr.. Doyle, had examined
| them and had given 10 the academy a GER
| tificate of their safety. Such boilers as
those, he said. would be expected to give
the best OF service for a term OF 20 70
| 25 years.
AS to insurance Mr.. Stenhouse saAa
that there was a policy for fire insurance
on the building for $1,000. placed with
Moses Il. Shippee of East Greenwich. but
| that he did not understand that the in
stitution would realize anything on the
policy because of the fact that IL did not
cover damage done by boiler or other
manner of explosion.
