Three llodlea Hare Uoen Found la tho Hnlns and Oue Injured Man lias Died. NEW YOItK. Feb. l.-The 7-story factory of the William Wicke company, manufacturers of cigur boxes, lulsjls and ribbons, at 401 to 411) East Thirty-first street, was shaken yesterduy afternoon by an explosion in the "shaving tower" which wrecked the tower and demolish ed the roof of the engine hoiiBe. The ex plosion is believed to have beeu caused by gus which found its way i'lto the tower and mingled with the tne dust there and was ignited In some unknown manner. The force of the explosion was trem endous and completely wrecked the tow er. The disintegrated brick work fell on the engine house, crushing It, and the concussion of the explosion cracked the big smoke stack UK) feet high that towered over the engine room. Every window in the rear of the big factory was shattered, as were the windows in the front and rear of the five story build ing Nos. 404, 40xi, and 408 East Thirty second street, connected by a bridge with the Wicke factory. Nearly S0O persons were at work in the Wicke factory at the time of the ex plosion. Three hundred and fifty of them were women. The employes in the two factories rushed to the fire escapes which were soon tilled with excited men and women, many of them bleeding from their wounds. Some of them thinking that the building was about to collapse, jump- il to the sidewalk from the fire escape balconies on the second floor. Noue ot them was seriously hurt. Fire which did damage to the extent of $l,roo,0li0 started anew in the even inc. How the tire started is not known, further than tlint It was the result of an explosion in the boiler room which had been wrecked by the explosion and con sequential fire in the afternoon. At the time the tire started Superintendent Dooner, of th. Building department and Contractor Cody were at work with thirty men attempting to pull down the having tower adjacent to the boiler room, iu which the explosion iu the after noon took place. The tearing down of this tower is thought to have been res ponsible for the start of the secoud fire. The ruins of the tower fell into the ruins of the boiler room and on top of ad jacent rooms in w hich were stored chem icals for the purpose of seasoning words. thus causing a second explosion. Smold ering embers from the late hre added to this nnd in a moment there was a hugi blaze. Engine Company -1 which hnd at tached lines of hose to the hydrant at the corner and almost underneath the walls of the burning factory, was seen to be in a dangerous position. The firemen were forced back by the heat nnd were compelled to abandon the three big white horses that stood there, the wall had broken out just la-side the engine and the heat was unbearable. The horses strug gled to escape, but seemed paralyzed with fright. The hair on their Doilies was seen -to turn to a brownish color. Some firemen threw overcoats over their heads and ran in nnd out the traces. The horses plunged madly into I irst avenue, but be came entangled uhout a lamppost and were unable to get fur'her. Three fire men secured overcoats from the crowd, ran lo the horses, threw the coats over the animals' bncks, cut the lines that held them to the post nnd started them away. They ran for some distance and were then taken to a livery stable. One of the horses was so badly burned that he had to be shot. The other two may recover. The Wicke building wos burned to the ground. The walls hnd nil fallen one. by one and there only remained stand ing the big chimney iu the south wall The building in the rear of that, extend ing, into Thirty-second street, was also gutted anil the interior burned.
