SPRINGFIELD
GAS DISASTER
KILLED THREE
By Associated Press. v
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. Feb.
The explosion that shook this city,
with three deaths» and injuries to
more than half a hundred persons in
the wreckage of windows and walls
over a wide area. yesterday, was still
unexplained today. That it was due
primarily to a. leakage of gas in the
purifying plant of the Springfield Gas
Light Company. where it occured. was
admitted by company officials. but
how this loose gas became ignite d was
not established. '
Pointing out that there was no
tank involved in the purifying pro-
ces, in which the crude manufac~
tured gas is conducted through filter
boxes sealed in water to eliminate im-
lpurities. Superintendent Hall said it
rwas free gas that exploded under the
roof; and that the machinenzwae not.
affected extept that some of the
boxes were ‘coveréd with wreckage.
Captain Brugi said the fact that there
was a leak of some size was noticed
yesterday. and an attempt was being
made to, find it when the exploaion
came. Although the foreman and em-
ployee were at work on this job, they
were seriously hurt than those out-
side the building. who were felled by
walls blown outward or roof frag—l
ments that came showering down. All‘
three deaths. were of men in the gas
works yard or adjourning streets.
The supply of plate glass in Spring-
field ,waj exhausted yesterday and to-
_dayV.the.IV,work of .boarding up the
hundreds ofIshop. and office indows
that went out with the explosion con-
tinued. Main street and other streets
in the business district were marked
byI storm windowed or boarded fronts.
Traffic was Iresumed. althc ch the
Courthouse. the City Hall and many
offices had to suspend ordinarv activ-
ities yesterday because of the damage
to property
Seven of the injured were carried
on the danger lists of the ‘mspitals.
It'uas not thought. however. that the
number of dead would be increased by
more than one or two.
Insurance adjusters were estimated
damage. the amount of which was in
the hundreds: n' ’housands of dollars.
