Thereare two manholes there, one near Third-ave., audthe oth.-r about 100 feet enst of the lirst.

After working in the forenoon the men teok an

hour for dinner, and resumed work at 1 P- m-

Daly and Annia went down into the manhole near

Third.ave., and Annis carried a lighted cnndlein iiis liand. Brennan and MbCbbB went downthe ladder to the bottom of the other manhole at

tha sj.nie time. They had not, been at workt manyseconds when the explosion 0. eurr.-d. Columus ofHan.e shot up from each maniiole.

Jaaaea Qaffney, tui mspector of sewers, wa* near

one ol the manholes at the time. lle was searedM badly that he dld not. know what t*. do, and heran iibo.it, iheiltlng for help. Ihe tlt- from the

As Annis was bemg carried into St. GcflBfB-Hnll closc by, some men in the street threw a

rope to Daly, who wa.s still at the bottom of themanhole. Daly caught hold of the rope andwas dtafB-d out. He was hurned about as badlyhs Annis wa.s, and the men carried him into St.George'a Hall after putting out the iire in hisdotluug. , .
