THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN,; PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, APRIL 25, 1864 BOILER EXPLOSION IN THE TENTH WARD. Cornelius do Baher's Fac tory Damaged. Several Persons Billed and This morning at twenty-five minutes before eight o'clock, a frightful boiler explosion took place at the gas fixture and chandelier manufac tory of Messrs. Cornelius & Baker, on the North side of Cherry street, between Eighth and Ninth streets. In order to understand the details of the disaster it will be necessary to give a description of the factory buildings. It will be rem&bered that the old factory was destroyed by fire in 1853 and the firm took possession of the present structure in February 1856. In order to guard against "a similar calamity great care-was taken to make the building entirely fire. proof. In fact no wood was used In their construction, and the structure was made almost entirely of brick, stone and iron. The buildings five stories in height occupy three sides of a square lot, with a large open space in the centre. Windows open into this court yard. As an additional precaution against accident the boiler and engine room were lo,;ated in a separate building which occupied the north side of the quadrangle. In this building there were two boilers in use, and an engine of twenty-five horse power. The building in which-the engine and boiler were placed was of brick, a single story in height, and the boilers were in abasementlower than the surface of the ground. There was a ctum ney five stories in height connected with the en gine house. There was also a small building used for stamping metals which occupied a portion of the quadrangle. THE DISASTER THIS MORNING. Beta een seven and eight o' clock this morning, when the hundreds of v , orkmen employed in the building were busy at their respective duties, the boilers exploded with a frightful noise, dashing the buildings in the quadrangle to pieces, and tumbling the tall chimney already described into a heap of ruins. A large space in the wall of the north wing of the factory was dashed in, the windows, and in some cases the iron sash of the main buildings were broken in, and frag ments of brick. work and other rubbish were hurled in throngs the windows. The escaping steam also entered the nearest windows and a frightful scene of confusion ensued. Three men were killed in stantly at their workbenches and several others were more or less injured. The workmen who had escaped unhurt rushed for the doors to escape into the open air, and some of them in their fright leaped from the windows. As soon as possible the injured persons were rescued from the ruins, medical aid was procured for them, and they were subsequently removed to the Pennsylvania Hospital in the Ambulances of the firemen which were brought to the spot with commendable promptness. THE EFFECTS OP. THE EXPLOSION OUTSIDE THE FACTORY. One of the boilers seems to have been rent in twain about six feet - from one end. The smallest end, near.y six feet in length, and folly three fee: in diameter, was, carried up into the air, pass. ing over the western side of the factory, traversing a distance of- about fourteen hundred feet and falling finally in Cherry street, below Twelfth. The mass of iron, weighing probably more than a ton, after traveling a distance of four equates, fell upon a one -storied building occupied by Jolty:son & Co. ,bottlers, No. 1121 Cherry street. It crashed through the roof, dashed out the brains of John Porter, a workman who was loading a wagon, made a wreck of the vehicle, passed 'out through a large open door-way, wrecked a second wagon inihe rear, struck the earth, rebounded, and after passing through two intervening fences landed in the yard of a house nearer to Twelfth street. The main body of the boiler measuring, probably, eighteen feet in length, was also thrown up into the air, and- passing up over the factory building it took a directly southern direction, and landing upon a range of stables in the rear of the William Penn Hotel, on Market street, below Ninth, it made a wreck of the stables, killed a horse and injured Mr. Lewis Robinson, a drover, from Carlisle,•who happened to be in the stable at the time. A smaller fragment of iron was thrown over into Eighth street, and after grazing the build ing on the southwest corner of Eighth and Cherry streets, and knocking down an iron awning -post„ it fell in the street without injuring any person. Many dwellings in thevicinity suffered considera ble damage from broken glass caused by the vio lent concussion in the air. This concussion, to gether with the noise of the explosion and the crashing of falling brick work, frightened all the horses within its influence, and a number or the animals ran away. adding to the excitement and contusion which prevailed. The disaster gave rise to an alarm of fire,. and a tinge crowd gathered in the vicinity. The firemen went to work at removing the rubbish in the yard in search of persons who might be buried under the ruins. All sorts of ridiculous rumors were afloat, and the friends of workmen employed in the factory were agonized with the uncertainty as V, which prevailed for some time. A under Chief Ruggles, were large g th e e ho ir o s y af o e f t police, promptly ur on duty and preserved order. THE CAUSE OF THE DISASTER. The cause of the disaster is involved in complete mystery. The boilers which exploded were consi dered entirely reliable. They were built by Mor gan' ' Orr & (:o. of this city. and they had been in use for about three years. They were frequently inspected, and only within a few days they were carefully overhauled. On Saturday night the steam was blown out of them, and they were fall of water this morning. In order that the firm might exercise a super vision of the engineer there was a steam guage in the counting-room of the factory. The engineer states that he left the engine room for a moment to procure some at tide for his machinery, and while in the office he looked at the guage and found that it indicated 65 lbs. lie was on his way back to the engine room when the explosion took place. He says there was not a sufficient pressure to run the engine at full speed, and he was about to try and get up more steam. This statement is confirmed by one of the clerks in the office, who looked at the guage five minutes before the explosion took place, and it then stood at 65. It is also stated that the injection was sup. plying water to the boilers a few minutes before the explosion took place. The engineer has been in the' employ of the firm for ten years, and he was esteemed a perfectly Competent and trustworthy man. The engineer has been in the employ of the firm I for ten years, and he was esteemed a perfectly com- ! petent and trustworthy man. THE KILLED So far as could be positively ascertained at the time of our going to press there were five persons who were killed, and it is feared that tne number will be increased. Three of the workmen em ployed in the factory were killed outright. Their remains have not yet been identified. They have been planed in the hands of an undertaker, by di rection of Messrs. Cornelius S. Baker, in order that they may be put in such condition that they can be recognized. John Porter who was killed at Twelfth and Cherry streets, and Thomas Albertson who died after his removal to the Hospital, make up the ag gregate of five. It is also feared that a Mr. Snyder, a bricklayer, who was at work in the yard, was buried beneath the ruins. He has not been seen since the acct. dent, and a strong force of men are engaged in re moving the rubbish in search for his body. Tan 'WOUNDED.
