exact cause of tha explosion has not been
determined. Yesterday workmen discerned
the odor of gaa and the United Oas Im

through the tunnel, were notified. Leans
was sent by the company to repair the
leak. It was while he was making his In-.

that the explosion occurred.
Heavy ralna last night partly filled the

have been heavy. There were comparatively

to the early hour. Trolley car passengers
and pedestrians were among the Injured.

The force of the explosion wrecked the
subway for half a block and all the heavy
timbering and other structural . work, in

Those portions of the subway that were
not covered with dirt Durst into names
and for a time no person dared venture
near the place for fear of further explo

but water was of little use, owing to the
fact that the flames were shooting from
dosens of gas pipes and a large ana main.
Dirt waa then resorted to and In the course
of a couple of hours all the flames hnd
been extinguished, except those from the
large main. This was not put out until
nearly 10 o'clock, and only after a hole had
been dug in the atreet near ths subway
and the main plugged up.
As soon ss the fire had been extinguished
and all danger of a further explosion had
passed, hundreds of men were put to work
clearing out the wrecked aubway.
While tha damage done to the subway,
to the olty'a gas snd water mains and the
electric light and telephone conduits Is enn-
sldersble, It will not compare with the
destruction wrought to surrounding prop
erty. From Fifth street to Seventh street
on Market street and for half a square on
Sixth street, both north and aouth of Mar
ket street, not a whole pane of glass is left.
All the large plate glass windows were
broken and thousanda of dollars' worth of
gooda in tha show windows were damagod.
Poiens of signs were torn from the roofs
and walls of buildings and it la considered
remarkable that not more persons were
killed. The vicinity of the explosion is
roped off and business within the affected
area, was temporarily suspended.
