Engineer James Burnett and Brake-
man Rouben Jonos Were Fatally
Injured Fireman Cronk Was Bad
ly Injured, but His Recovery Is
Expected Cause of tho Explosion
Is Not Yet Known It Occurred
While the Engino Was Switching
Cars at Pancoast Mine at Throop.
Jamca Burnett, of North Lincoln ave
nue, an engineer emploed by the Dela
wam, Lackawanna and Western Rail
roud lompany, and Reuben 12, Jones,
of Nny Aug, a Lackawanna brake
man, were killed esteiday mncnlng j,y
the explosion of the boiler of the
switching engine on which they worn
employed. The explosion occmied near
the Pancoast collleiy, on tho Wlnton
branch of the Iickawanna,
The ilieman nf tho engine, Albert S
Cionk, was badly scalded by the boiling
steam and sovemly bitilsed by being
bulled a pi eat distance b) the shock.
He was taken to the Moses Taylor hos
pital for tieatment, but nsked to be re
moved from thnt Institution to his
home In Lincoln Heights, where he can
be tieated by Christian Science healeis.
The cause of the explosion Is at pres
ent unknown, nnd Chief Clerk Poore, of
OeiiPial Supetlntendent Clatke's oflke,
sild vesterd.iy that It must remain so
until a thoiottgh examination has been
made of the tic mollshed engine and a
caieful Investigation be held of nil the
circumstances connected with the mat
ter. Tlie explosion occuried nt 9 20
o'clock vcflterday morning at a point
about thiee-tiuarteis of n mile from the
colliery, where the Delaware, Lacka
wanna and Western tracks Intersect
with the street enr hacks.
SOMI2TIIINO Tim MATTI2R.
The engine was Nn 714, used for jaid
put poses, and left Scranton at 6 o'clock
)pstPiday morning. At the time of the
accident It wns pulling a trip of seven
cms fiom the mine, nnd the i rew early
dWcovemd them vvas cmmcthlng wiong
with the motive power, as the engine
pulled heavily, puffed and slipped In
rounding curves. Suddenly there came
11 crash, whlih could he heaid for miles
around, nnd the next Instant the air
was full of 11)Ing pieces of heated
metal, and was clouded with the es
caping, sizzling steam,
The conductor of the train, Mr. Perr),
who wns on the rear car, was unin
jured, but nil three of his mates bore
the full burnt nf the tetrlble disaster
Knglneer Buinett was thiown high Into
the air, and when his body fell It
dropped on a oar of coal, where he
lived only about five minutes, suffeilng
intense pain.
Brakeman Jones, who was in tho ten
der of the engine, vvas blown high Into
the air, nnd fell fully fifty feet from
the engine. His face was teirlbly scald
ed and his body scalded and mangled
bv the foice nf his terrible fall. En
gineer Burnett had been frightfully
burnpd, and the foice of his fall had
left all thought of recoveiy out of the
question It was hoped, however, that
Jones could be aved, and he was re
moved to tho Moses Tajlor hospital,
whom lie died two horns after being
admitted.
CRONK'S INJURIES.
Cronk's Injuries and scalds are about
the face and body and, while painful,
am not thought to be of a serious na
ture. His fall was the heaviest sus
tained by any one of tho three, how
ever, and one can conjectum the force
of the explosion by the fact that his
form wan hurled thiough the branches
of a large oak tiee standing several
feet from the track.
The Pancoast and Moes Talor am
bulances were called to the spot, nnd
In these the Injuied men were removed
The boiler nnd cab of the engine were
both completely ripped from the ttuck
nnd hulled in the air, falling upon the
second eoal car, splitting It in two. The
engine's stack was driven full) flftj
feet fiom the hacks, and the trucks
and tender alone escaped complete
deinollshment. The explosion drew to
the s-cene a great Huong of msidents
of Thioop, who assisted the Injured
men nnd aided in a paitlal clearing of
the hacks. Trallle on the Throop street
car line was blocked during patt of the
day.
Engineer Burnett wns 41 j eais of age.
and came hem fiom Cnrhondalc twenty
yeais ago. A wife and several chlldmn
stuvlve him. Brakemnn Jones wns the
son of William Jones, of Dunmore, nnd
is suivlved by a wife and four chlldmn.
