height of more than five hundred feet in
some cases, presenting the appearance
Of a mountain on fire. People living on
Richmond Terrace, Staten Island, and as
far back inland as Bard and Davis ave-

which was plainly felt for a distance OF
fourteen miles TO the south of the island.
At the Sailors Snug Harbor, which

In Brooklyn. especially in the vicinity
of the Borough Hall, the force of the ex-
plosion was sufficiently strong to make
buildings shake and rock. Many people
ran out into Fulton and JoraIemon
streets. William Hyman, of No. n

when the explosions occurred. The

when the news Of the explosion spread

men, 5abbering and weeping, assailed the
iron gates, making pathetic inquiry after
father and son, brother and husband
Many of these waited about the gates
until daylight, fearful lest it was some
member of their family who was among
the dead or missing.
In Bayonnc itself the damage was
heavy. a large furniture store on Broad
way, half mile from the fire, was the
scene Of peculiar accident. A large
kitchen range was in the window, and
when the explosion rocked the city this
range was drawn through the plate glass
window by the suction and deposited on
the sidewalk. The length Of Broadway
and East 22d street was lined with
broken store windows.
Inside the yards of the Tide Water

was so intense that the men fighting the
fire found it impossible TO remain within

firemen and the companys employees
erected walls of water between the fire
snd other tanks. while other men hastily
drew off the oil and piped 1t into more
distant containers The firemen found
that steam was more effective in fighting
the fire than water, and consequently
played a hundred streams Of steam or
