Boston, March 15.-Three work.
men were badly injured, and scores
of pedestrians miraculously escaped
death, shortly after 10 O'Clock, today,
when three ton water tank, which
was being drawn to the 10th floor of
the Filene Building at Summer and
Washington streets, broke the pulley
ropes and crashed nearly 100 feet to
the street below.
The accident happened in the very
heart of Boston's busiest shopping
district. Only for the fact that the
great tank struck a steel coping on
the second floor. and was just swerv-
ed to the street, the huge steel bulk
would have dropped plumb on the
heads of a crowd which was packed
and jammed along the sidewalk as
is usually the case at this time of
day. The tank landed between the
car tracks and the curbstone, just as
a crowded surface car went by. Had
it fallen two inches further into the
street it would have crashed through
the roof of the car
