An explosion of an oil tank at
the, rear of Hanshue Bros garage,
Wednesday morning, caused consider
able excitement for a few moments,
during which fire alarm was turned
in, altho the service of the depart
ment was not required. The tank
was a large one belonging to the
Ohio Fuel Supply Co. and had been
brought to the garage for the weld
ing of a break. Chas. Hanshue and
two assistants were at work on the
tank when there was a sudden and
terrific explosion, accompanied by a

was in the tank being blown about,
setting the oil wagon and other in
flammable things nearby on fire. That

short of miraculous.
