They went inte the basement to clean out a k=eping-box. They shut off the valve of the pipe leading from the big tank and opeaed a valve under the keeping-box. After the box had been cleaned, the gas from the task was tarned into it azain, but the men forgot to close the valve under the box, This allowed the gas to scape all through the bullding. The men siarted to locate the leak, and entering the pumping room where the gas had accumulated in large quantities, fell unconscious before they could get out, They were not missed until inquiries were made by persons complaining of their being unable to get any gas.
