The success of the labor organisers
in getting the men out, cheered the
other strikers to a high pitch of en-
thusiasm. The officials of the National
Tube Company would not discuss the
strike beyond oaylng that they have
been keenly disappointed throughout
the strike, by the attitude of their men
and that they hope in time the men
will come to their senses and come

the strike, said: , "Let the good work

PHILADELPHIA, august lid—Five
persons are known to have been killed
by‘the explosion of the big benzlne
tank at the Atlantic Refining Com-
pany's refining works-at Point Breeze
at midnight.
The dead are: John McCiullum, En-
gine Company 49: James Iiiiiils. Engine
Company 49; John Dougheirty. Truck
Company No. 9, and a fireman and an
employee of the refining company, too
badly burned to be recognized.
When the explosion occurred the
firemen of Engine Company 49 and em-
ployees of the Atlantic Refining Com-
pany. in all about fifty men, were at
work in the pumping house drawing
off oil from the burning tanks. The
flames shot high in the air and the
pumping house was almost; complete
ly demolished. The firemen who had
been playing streams on the other
tanks then directed their attention to
the rescue of the 'men who had been
imprisoned in the pumping house. it
was nearly an hour before the men
could be reached. Meanwhile a score
of streams of water were pouring upon
the ruins of the pumping house. The
promptness with which the firemen
turned their attention to the rescue of
the men undoubtedly saved a score of
lives. As quickly as the men were res-
cued from the ruins they were sent to
the hospitals in the lower section of
the city. Five bodies were recovered
and sent to the morgue, but only three
of them could be identified.
None of the seventeen injured men
taken to the hospitals are seriously
injured. They were suffering chiefly
from burns and bruises and after
having their wounds dressed! nearly all
were able to leave the: shops.
The pumping pause where the explo-
sion occurred was midWay between the
two rows of burning tanks and the fire.
men were ondonvorlng to confine the
flames to one row by drawing off the
oil at the time of the explosion.
There are 100 tanks in the big all
plant. and more than a dozen of them
are on fire. At the time of the explo-
sion the wind wadbiowing strongly
from the east and carrying the flames
directly toward the other tanks, but
early this morning the wind shifted to
the southwest and there is a probabil-
ity of saving the other tanks from de-
structlon.
The fire was burning fiercely at 10
o'clock this morning. The wind is
blowing in the direction that carries
the heavy stifling black smoke directly
over the central section of the city.
At the time of the explosion two Ger-
man tank steamers. Gntheil and Marie.
were loading petroleum at the Atlantic
oil wharves, but they were towed down
the river to spines of safety.
Various theories are advanced as to
the consent the explosion in the pump
house. where the firemen lost their
lives. Acccrdins to "a fireman of bin-
i
out the oil from a burning tank, the
fluid was allowgd toget too low and
drew the fire with it, The explosion
occurred,» the men were pumping.
and wondpr‘ is expressed by the men
that every one in the building did not
lose their‘lives. '; ',_,
Another theory is that tau oil in the
tank number 80 o “mowed and tho,
burning oil spread gge‘gump house,
where the flremen w r ‘a lyicrk. cans.
us the oil there to ditblodo. There
large gang of employees Oi the com
pany were buried when the explosion
occurred.
Since early morning the homes have
spread to five additional tanks. making
eighteen that have been destroyed. The
fire is not yet under control. although
most of the tanks not yet on fire are
more or less isolated fromrthoric that
are burning. The almost exhausted firs-
men are devoting their efforts to sav-
ing the tanks and other propiirly not on

Landlord O’Sullivan's horse made ’,
things interesting this morning, when
he took it into his head to run away.
The animal was" in charge of an em“ _
pioyee who was cleaning up the road
near the Dorian House. and was hitch-‘
ed to a dump cart.
‘Whlle the man in charge was busy
a short distance away, the animal
started up the Dorian Point road at a-
mad pace. The noise of the dump cart
over the rough road could be heard for
quite a distance. Several ran after
the animal, but turned back, seeing it
was useless to try to catch him. A
short distance ahead of the frantic
beast was a carriage, but the horse
dashed to one side. clearing the we
hlcle, and continued upon his made
pace up the road. A little distance
above this place, in front of Attorney
John J. Walsh’s residence, a number of
men under the charge of Mr. Finnigan
were repairing the Connecticut Rail-
way and Lighting Company's rails.
These men. armed with crow-bars,
shovels and pick axes got cutin the
road and began waving them in all
kinds of ways. distilling into them
came the benst. .
One of the men drew off and hit the
frightened animal, just as he was com.
ing into them. The blow was a slum
her and the frightened work horse
came to a stanctill at once. ‘Boss Fin.
nigan then stepped into the cart and
was heard to murmur these words:
You will runaway. l’ll learn you
how to run back now." He took the
animal hack to the Point, where he
will probably be closely watched in the
future.
