ing towards the celebration of the day by
the presentation ol American Hans for

buildings throuoiiout the city. It was
at firs', thought that this could be done
alone of the school buildings, hut in
view of the fact that inclement weather
could be reasonably looked for at this

to have t ue exercises indoors, and so the
Academy of Music has been secured,

casion will he carried out.

different organisations in the city, ask
icg them to.join in the celebration and a

THK GAS EXPLODED.

Chic mo, Feb. 20.?Seven explosions of
natural gas at 7 o'clock this morning in
the etiKine room of the Chicago Chronicle
nt M>1 iinil 10(1 Washington street, bat?
tered the basement ami business oflice
ami wounded ten persons, live of them
serinu s.
Pines leading from the street sprunu
a leak ami the explosion was caused by
ignition from electric light wires.
Jtt John Millnn, tho foreman of th<- press
room, was the most seriously injured aud
his recovery is doubtful. He was blown
tigaiust the wall aud badly burned. One
arm was so badly crushed that it will
probably have to be amputated. Harry
Hardgrove, the ecgtneer, wns blown
thirty feet und badly injured internally,
.lohn Stetiger, a pressman, was seriously
burned about the face, .lohn Wheeler, a
driver, who was standing in front of the
Chronicle oflice, was blown half way
across the street, and Charles Williams,
who wns standing on the sidewalk over
the gas pipe, was blown ns high as the
second story of the building and was
badly injured. Matthew Halites, mailer,
was severely burned.
A few minutes later llames It aped
through the basement Hoots, consumed
the business office, and destroyed the
Western Union Telegraph Company's
branch oflice adjoining.
All the wires lending to the oflice in?
cluding those used by the United Associ?
ated Presses were broken. The editorial
rooms of the Chronicle were flooded by
water and {badly damaged by smoke.
The force of the shock from the explosion
broke every plate i;lass window in the
building and tore up the sidewalk in front j
of the oflice.
The wall separating the press room of
; the chronicle from that of the Journal
was blown down and the water from the
I litre engines flooded the presses und dam1
aged the large stock of paper. It is tlilli ]
cult to ascertain the exact losses, as the
tiremeii and police will not allow reporters
to enter the building owing to the fre
tltieut explosions ol uas in the basement.
Horatio Seymour, the publisher of the
; Chronicle, estimates the damage tit $10,
