A TERRIFIC EXPLOSION.
Bursting of the Gasometer at the Cincinnati
Gas Works.
Cincinnati. May 21.-At a few niinutea
pant I '2 o'clock to-day, our citiwn were
atnrtlpd w ith a dull, rumbling explosion,
accompanied I J a trembling of the earth,
and all thp pheuon ena of an pnrthqnake.

and the engine came nut, but the r rx-r-vieeA

if the vily nan-worka had exploded with
atnutilnp report. The Luge irn bolder,
one hundred nnd thirty feet In diaaieterand
fortv-two feet in height, with a capacity
for Lalf a million cubic feet of ga, wa
torn In pieces, and tumbled in a confused
man, into the cistern. What the caue
w no one can tell. The explosion com
' wenced on the north aide, ueat to Front
atreet. Ten or twelve workmen who bad
been eiigngcd in painting the holder had
jnit descended, and at the tiino were alnnd
mg by the engine boilie, but mirnculoua
ly escaped with their lives, and without ae
rions ininrv. One man. 1'nt McKinzie, an
employe of the gna company, waa on top
the column, on a level wnn, anu penny
touching the ton of the gasometer. Ho
waa not blown off by the explosion, though
his clothes were all burned off. and his en
tire body waa crisped ao aa to causa his
death in three hours.
liii k and Tnt Shendnu were driving bun
ber carta near the aceue. nnd they and
their horsea were severely bnrned. These
men will recover, but the horsea will prob
ablv die.
A man mimed Climles Ki'lli-v. walking
by on the opposito side of tho street, was
badly burnpil.
Kolingo on treea four hundred feet dis
tant waa scorched. The aeighboring hold
em were injured by the concussion, one
linilly as to leak a lnre amount ol giis.
The buihlniBs near were ai'orchcd, but,
cept atarting the roof of one, no ther
damage was done. The report waa heard
at a great distance. The loss to tho gas

fered. None of the huge iron columns
were blown down, but the massive capitals
of some of tueui were torn off.

sbirted to go to dinner. Kiuce early morn
ing the holder had risen a considerable
distance, and it had become ho dilllcult
reach the top of the luddur, that one of
men, l'utriek Mekenzie, of luvgeand heavy
flume, fearing to swing himself down toll,
concluded to Biid for bin dinuer, and re
main on the holder nutil it should aiuk
the top of the bidder. Tlmt decision cost
him his life. Hewn silting in the shade
of an angle, on one i.l the pillars
on the aoulh, wuiting to pull up
dinner, when suddenly he wuh deaf
ened, blinded, and overwhelmed, at
innuendo holder rilHhed up aeveml feet
above his head, lie had seuted himself
there, a Htroug, healthy mun, couiioitably
clothed, aud thinking only of his dinner.

clothing, save some ntga that clung to

nothing but a uiuut of burned aud bh cdiug
flesh.
W hen the tuns of the bolder thundered
back down into the deep water of the tank,
the bursting out of Humes from a cauldron
of tar produced a terrible panic, among the
thousands of spectators. It waa a pjiuio
atricken crowd, terrible iu its fear. The
weaker men gasped for air in the crush,
aud aouie of tiiem fell to the ground. Hoys
were trampled into the gutter. Home
stumbled over the hose, aud were unable
to rise again until they had lelt niany
' cruel heel. Several women had the aaine
desperate experience. It was a struggle
escape tire or concussion, all thought, aud
ao they tied without reason.
A yonng man uuincd Albert Warren bad
his left arm broken. . A lad named John
Mallou had the call of one of his legs mu
tilated in a allocking manner. A woman,
Mrs. Krider, living near by, and strangely
out of place there ii'iloss, aa waa stated,
she Haw one of her children waa ao vio
lently jostled aud trampled upon that
niiecarrittge very soon resulted to bur. Jns.
Harper, a large, strong man, had two of the
nngura of his left bund brokeu. Varioua
other Occidents occurred.
bo turascjui be learned, the only sufferer
aa to property by this affair is the gas com
pany, whose loss is about U0,UOO,
which there is no insurance.
By the force of the concussion, the roof
of cool house No. 4, south of the holder,
corrugated .iron rooting, waa lilted and
twisted. CousiderabU datnago waa done
to holder No 6 the new one on the north
aide recently finished. Thia ia a telescopio
bolder, of the aiune capaeity aa No.
and 3. liy the concussion it waa thrown
up, anu aroppea lusucn a maimer aa
break the chain of four weight of 2,000
pounds each contained within four of the
iron columns. The heavy mass of iron,
tailing within the hollow' columns to the
ground, shattered the atone basea and
one instance broke out a big half section
the inch iron of the column.
Holder No. 4 waa lifted out of line, but
waa righted ao aa to be of service lost even
ing. The explosion ia not aecounted for by
any even the best informed gaa manufac
turers. Your correspondent waa informed
lost night that when it occurred there waa
-co ore in the cauldron, and that no gaa
bad been let into the holder tor aix boura.
Hue theory ia that of great expansion of
the gaa by aolur beat on the holder, the
conaequent bursting of the roof, and the
flame, which waa communicated to the
escaping contents from the stack of the
Ulobe rolling mills. The idea waa quite
generally presented tbnt there ia no dun
gcr of an explosion to a bolder. In Octo
ber, 1865, a gasometer of the London Uaa
Company' works at Nine Elms, iluttorsoa
road, exploded, lulling ten men. It was
twice the size of this. Not long since there
waa a similar exploujon at Chicago. Both
these explosion! wero accounted for by
the fire communicating from the governor
in the first instance. How thia ever oc
curred, no one aeema to know. The otH
cera and employee of the work seem
mizzled, and cannot solve the mystery.
Tu theory attove given aeema plausible.
J be exnloHion could not occur until the
glut had become mixed with atmospheric
air, and it doe not seem likely tlmt that
coniu occur except in the way mentioned.
U. J. Miller, l'reuidant of the Company,
waa in Chicago to-day. He waa telegraphed
to immediately, and returned word that no
expeiiae should be (pared in repairing the
4auiaga and caring for the wounded. He

to look for a pet dog that had gone to

house ahe was aeeohfiul by a well-dressed,
bill, genteel-looking, black-eyed, black
whiskered individual, who asked her if she
could tell him where a Mr. Hamilton
lived. She gave him the information, when

if Hhe did not tell, the consequence would

finally failed on General Mower for military

A DOUBLE CRIME.
Outrage and Murder-The Dark-Affair
Enveloped in Mystery.
From tlie t'lilettiin HeptiMlran ol Munuay.
The result of a terrible and most myste
rious crime was brought to light on Satur
day hist by the discovery of the murdered
form of n young girl upon a small island
in the river just uoith of the city limit.
It is another "horror" in be addud to tbnt
fearfully long list for which Chicago ia no
torious. The circumstance connected
with the durk iillair are peculiarly appall
ing, as the victim is a beautiful nnd inno
cent young girl, nud it ia probable that a
most brutal outrage prcccilwd the greater
crime that extinguished the viul spark-
The place where the liendish ant waa per
petrated is sn island in the North Branch,
formed by a bayou aeltinrt bock from the
river. The island ia located north of the
city limits, near what is known as "Snow'a
Tavern."
Three young men, named respectively
JoHeph Fn atuaii, George I'll if. r and Joi n.
Liidilhody, were passing by the place on
Saturday evening when their attention wn
attracted by what appealed to be n female
kneeling upon the liver bank. Vlie figure
was still and inntionleHs, end a closer in
spection showed that it was no longer the
body of a living person. A leathern etrap
waa found t.i;litly bound about bur neck,
producing strangulation, which wa with
out doubt the immediate cause of her death
The posture iu which the body won louud
clearly ueiiotui tun pnin and anguish pre.
ceding death. When discovered, the inau
imale form was restiug upon the knees and
face, which was covered by ber hand, as if
suppurating to tier uu rciles murderer to
save ber lite. These appeals were unheed
ed, the only respoiiKe being the tightening
strap in tho bauds of the unrelenting mf-
Dsns. Tho unfortunate lady appeared to
ij ui iim egiiui uiitiviiy, oi more man
ordinary intelligence, aud was neatly
dresaed, but the mean of identify
ing the body are lew, and ber name and
the secret of the foul crime will most likely
ever be recorded iu the two words of terri
ble uieuaing "found dead." I'uon her
finders were found two gold rings, one of
wuicn was engraven wltli the enttiulH, "C.
M. Vt., the other ring and the under-
clothing were marked with the initials,
"M. U." Her purse coutuiued Home small
change, but no addrer.s by which any clue
to her identity could be ascertained.
The blackened and distorted features ex
hibited the marks of strangulation, pro
duced probably by the strap above referred
to, and that the murderer or murderera bud
taken improper liberties with the person
of the helpless girl, there cm hardly remain
a doubt
The remains were yesterday conveyed to
the dead house in the old city cemetery
for identification, but np to a lute hour
last night ber identity waa not learued.
A )msI mortem examination was held yester
day afternoon, but beyond the facta above
alluded to, nothing further was ascertained.
An inquest on the remsius will be held by
Cnrnuer Cleaves, to-day.
The fact that the criminal and the vio.
tim are alike both unknown adds much to
tbu horrible nature, ol tho crime, and what
could havo been tho object of visiting the
shafts of death upon ono so belples nud
huriulcs is almost beyond comprehension.
Cun it be that the young girl was decoyed
to tho place and outraged, and then mur
dered by tho demons in human form, to
conceal the crime? Yet, thia is the most

laid it out into twenty-acre lots, nud have

CHICAGO AND NORTHWESTERN RAILWAY.
I had Intended, some time ago, to speak of
a change in the Vice Presidency of the Chi
cago and Northwestern Itailroad Company,
Perry li. Hnilth, who had occupied thai post .
ao eftlcieully for many years, having resigned,
and Henry It. Pierio'n, of Brooklyn, N. Y.,
taking hi place, Mr. Pierson, the new View
President, is a man of large executive ability,
with much experience in railroading, and. I
think, is possessed with the idea that Una k
good will of the public is worth snmething
to railroad companies, and that he will
beat subserve the the Intercuts of the stock
holders bv serving the public well and
olieaply. Tha company havo recently dona
a wiao thing, lu reducing t'io freight on
wheat tn Chicago from all point on tho Mia
tsaipni, as high aa Ht. faul, to ten cent a
bushel just half what it used to be and tha
freight on Hour from 7.1 to 40 cent a barrel.
And a laeo Ihe Milwaukee A Ht. Paul It. ft:
company has done likewise, it will pretty el
factually prevent tho diversion of grain car
riage to New Orleans. At all events. Ill pro
ducing classes and the general publio will ba
greatly benefitted by this reduction.
