By the explosion of a soda water tank
at the plant of the Aero Distilled Water
company. in Bridgeport. at 8:45 yester-
mcrly of Norwalk, was. it is thought.
fatally injured.
Mr. Grumman is a'brothor of H. J.
and G. B. Grumman, the well-known
Norwallr'bottlers. He has resided in
Bridgeport several years, and has a
wife and one son. She is the daughter
of Norman Knapp. of Silvermine. His
folks in Norwallr had not heard of the
accident when apprised of it by a Senti-
nel reporter. 0n Su day his mother.
Mrs. Sylvester Grumman, and his
brother Fred were guests of the injured
man at his home in Bridgeport.
Although the tank was supposed to be
able to withstand a pressure of 180
pounds to the square inch. it was never
ullowedtoexceed 125 pounds. At the
time of the explosion yesterday, the
pressure stood at 120 pounds.
Allen had been charging the tank.
and as the. pressure approached the
limit, was preparing to shut it ofl’. He
stood with his right side toward the
tank, at adistance of less than a foot.
He was thrown down by the force of
the explosion, and his right leg was
shockingly mangled. From his foot to
about two inches above the knee the
flesh was turn to fragments. and the
bones splintered into pieces of an inch
in length. Besides, the right side of
his face was laid open as though by a
blow with a butcher's cleaver. The
wound wasa clean cut one, and very
deep. It extended from the chin to the
eyebrow, and laid bare the check bone.
When the ambulance, which had
been summoned. arrived. Mr. Grum-
man lay in a pool of blood that nearly
covered the cellar floor. He was taken
at once to the General Hospital. With.
in an hour after the time of the acci-
dent, the log had been nmputaWd.
There was little damage to the fac-
tory as the result of the explosion. the
breaking of several small windows being
the extent of it. No one else was injur<
Word received from Bridgeport this
morning was to the effect that Mr.
Grumman‘s condition is critical.
